Im trying to mine using skein algo with my R7850 by MSI. What settings do you recommend??

Algorythm #1: SHA256D

Ah yes, the dreaded ASIC algo ... well if you're using an ASIC you don't need my help, heck I don't even know how to power one on.


Could I ask a noob question? Can you mine Myriad with the same ASIC that's used to mine Bitcoin? To be more specific, could I buy an obsolete ASIC off eBay and use it to mine Myriad, or would I be wasting my money?

Thanks.

Great guide thank you.
Using Sapphire R9 270X I'm managing a steady 147 Mh/s with gpu temp at 64C and still able to browse and play web based card games without any lag.

cgminer --skein -o stratum+tcp://*pool:port* -u ** -p ** --no-submit-stale -I 10 -g 2 -w 64 --gpu-engine 1100 --gpu-memclock 1000 --thread-concurrency 8192

I have an R9 290 and I can't get more than 227 Mh/s with Skein without overclocking (high electricity costs here, I don't even run scrypt because it takes too many watts)
not really sure if it's even possible to get more without overclocking

note: thread concurrency doesn't do anything with skein, it uses the same .bin file no matter what TC you specify because skein doesn't use a thread concurrency

take memclock as low as it lets you and up engine as high as you can until you have the desired mh/kw everything else is quite irellevant.

great guide, thanks Cheesy!

Edit: actually tried to use skein but no avail. The batch file closes as soon as it opens, says that there aren't any available commands. Sad
Any thoughts?

Does anyone know if there is a yield advantage in any of the algorithms when cpu mining? (I know OP said he hasn't cpu mined, but maybe someone else)

I have same question. I am going ask in main thread.


foodies123-

scrypt miners should probably be using veox's sgminer. it is based on cgminer 3.7.2.
git - https://github.com/veox/sgminer/releases
win binaries - http://sgminerwindows.com/

qubit & groestl can both use phm's sph-sgminer

any thoughts on the relatively low profitability of mining myriad? How can it succeed with low profits? Thanks for the guide!
