Is there a limit per PC on the generation rate? Max Mkeys/sec?
I am playing with one PC with Six R9 270 GPU.
If installed in 16x GPU Slot, only one GPU, I get about 16.5 Mkeys/sec (all installed in same slot give 16-18Mkey/sec)
If I install only one GPU with 1x power riser, I get about 11 MKeys/sec
Then if I install 3 GPU I get expected 3x or about 49 Mkey/sec, but 3 installed with 1x powered riser I get around 31 Mkey/sec (3x one with 1x riser)
Six gpu installed all with 1x powered riser, I get about 52Mkey/sec
Running 15.10 ubuntu server

Does ANYone know how to change the code so that more address calculations will be executed before generating a new random key?
If it calculates 3M addresses then generates a new random key, what code would we change to make it calculate 300M addresses before generating a new random key?
Thanks!

Hello,
i have a System with 6 AMD 480'er cards inside and will create some adresses with vanitygen.
My System show the card from the claymore miner
Cards available: 6
GPU #0: name: Ellesmere, 8192 MB available, 36 compute units
GPU #1: name: Ellesmere, 8192 MB available, 36 compute units
GPU #2: name: Ellesmere, 8192 MB available, 36 compute units
GPU #3: name: Ellesmere, 8192 MB available, 36 compute units
GPU #4: name: Ellesmere, 8192 MB available, 36 compute units
GPU #5: name: Ellesmere, 8192 MB available, 36 compute units
Total cards: 6
But how can i use this 6 cards to find a BTC Adress like "1WiLLi......." not only with the CPU and 300-400 khash / sec.
i will use my grafikcards to find the adress very fast, but i cant...
Best Regards
Willi

I have two cards and my command line looks something like this:
Code:
C:\>oclvanitygen64.exe -f work.txt -o dump.txt -D 0:0 -D 0:1
So yours *should* look something like:
Code:
C:\>oclvanitygen64.exe -f work.txt -o dump.txt -D 0:0 -D 0:1 -D 0:2 -D 0:3 -D 0:4 -D 0:5
i had the same problem, you just need to create a .bat file, put it in the folder of vanitygen and write this:
Code:
oclvanitygen.exe -o whereyouwanttosave.txt 1UrName
and then open it! You have 480s working with vanitygen?
I'm fairly sure that oclvanitygen doesn't work on Intel HD graphics... that is CPU graphics. You need a discrete GPU card like nVidia or AMD Radeon for oclvanitygen to work
From the wiki:
My laptop have Intel HD graphics too but it is only for minor things such as desktop shades, etc... for compute/mine you need a OpenCL or Cuda GPU From the wiki:

awesome! thanks! 
i had the same problem, you just need to create a .bat file, put it in the folder of vanitygen and write this:
Code:
oclvanitygen.exe -o whereyouwanttosave.txt 1UrName
and then open it! You have 480s working with vanitygen?
No, I saw it's CUDA.
ok i solved my problem with oclminer using a .bat instead of directly cmd but with this method there is another problem... How to prevent the window from closing when the address is found? 
Code:
oclvanitygen.exe 1ForuM
Send it to a file (-o filename) so you don't lose it or use the -k switch which forces vanitygen to keep looking.
or if in windows, shift-right click and select open command window here on the directory containing oclvanitygen
thanks, now I'm ready to generate everything! (ok, not everything), I make 2,50 Mkey/s with my small GT540M
yes i have tried
but if i start oclvanitygen.exe -v 1WiLLi it will only display the openCL platforms
and if i use the Platform 0 i get the same output
what for a exacly command line strin did i need? and why get i only one card from my six cards back in the platform / device list?
but if i start oclvanitygen.exe -v 1WiLLi it will only display the openCL platforms

Hello,
i have a System with 6 AMD 480'er cards inside and will create some adresses with vanitygen.
My System show the card from the claymore miner

But how can i use this 6 cards to find a BTC Adress like "1WiLLi......." not only with the CPU and 300-400 khash / sec.
i will use my grafikcards to find the adress very fast, but i cant...

In any case, this only further confirms my point...
That we might be nearer than previously thought to the onset of a new era, an era of devastating collisions
That we might be nearer than previously thought to the onset of a new era, an era of devastating collisions
It seems that my "prophecy" of nearing the age of hand-crafted collisions has come true sooner than I expected, lol. Someone apparently read my posts as of yesterday and decided to wait no longer...

Nope, not a collision.
Did you steal the money yourself?

As far as i can tell, oclvanitygen should be working for you. Try adding a -S (safe mode) to your command line is about all I can suggest.

No, if half of all addresses have been used there will very likely (just shy of 100%) a collision.
Nice "if", but of course this won't happen. Using half the addresses will never happen, using 0.0000000001% of the addresses will also never happen. Jump to:
