@Vertcoin has market-cap over 1 million us dollar !

Kudos to Vertcoin for creating such a cool coin. Thanks again Vertcoin.

i am mining with p2pool and not getting paid since 7 hours.

the pool recognizes the address, everything appears to be in order. (shares accepted, etc).

any ideas?

I'm getting paid in clusters. It will pause for a few hours then all of a sudden I'll get 4-5 transfers, etc. Not sure what's up but when I get home from work tonight I'll be setting up my own instance of the P2P pool.

Same here. Didnt get a payout for the last 6 hours. How ironic i received the last one @ 13:37...

I am done with http://vtcpool.co.uk:9171/

Hi Bifius,

Can you please provide more details for the last fix (fix for ADL with R9 cards) for the R9 cards? I'm running 270x and 280x and was wondering how would my system benefit from this fix, more stable/better performance?

Thanks,
Deky


This is the fix for crashing R9 cards after exit the miner, also described here: http://www.ohmpie.com/mining-on-an-r9-290-in-linux/

Registrations re-opened at vtcpool.co.uk since nethash has gone up again. I'll be keeping a close eye on it though.

finally here it is

vertminer-0.5.3 released

windows build: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5n70hj3izjj64y1/vertminer-0.5.3.zip
github source: https://github.com/Bufius/vertminer-gpu.git

release notes:
Code:
Version 0.5.3 - 2 February 2014
- changed automatic TC calculation (again but still not finished / perfect...)
- increased max intensity to 21
- shaders are now used for intensity calculation
  --> option shaders is set: intensity calculation tries to align to shaders count (can increase performance but also decrease with low intensity)
  --> shaders NOT set: old cgminer intensity calculation is used
- opencl changed to keep speed with adaptive nfactor
- introduced first time dependent nfactor changes in code (not finally done yet)
- fix for ADL with R9 cards

Hello Boris , why my worker VkmHTrMg5WDyuhpyaAiBkw7pd7uT7QRXnv on your p2pool have so much stale %?

Probably latency - what are your pings to vtcpool.co.uk like? If it's not latency, then it's almost certainly too-high intensity, or queue not set to 0.

any idea what are the best queue / scan-time / expiry settings for p2pool?

p2pool is stratum so scan-time and expiry will make no difference, you definitely want queue 0 though.

Def clocks for this card are 1050 (1100 with built in boost) for CPU and 1400 for memory, I keep it at 1100/1500 CPU/MEM stable.


For 270x, I am getting around 234 KH/s on my Gigabyte 270x OC edition 2GB models.


to keep you informed

I will release a new vertminer-0.5.3 today when i am back at home (in ~3 hours).
Windows build is ready and i got feedback the R9 issues with crashes are solved.



Nice. I think I am not alone on this one.. Any performance improvements?

Sounds good..
Guys, can anyone tell me performance out of R290 and R290X ??
How about R270X? I am planning to buy some more HW so advice would be nice Smiley
Is also any difference between 2GB and 4GB version of 270X in terms of performance?

That is pretty nice out of R270X I think.. what are default clocks of your card and what do you use for stable mining?

 i am getting really poor performance with vertminer, compared with cgminer. i can run -g 2 with cgminer, while vertminer simply crashes.

Is this really that revolutionary? Bitcoin isn't ASIC-resistant but it still has a 10 billion market cap. I mean it's amazing in some sense, but I don't know if it will take off to hundreds of millions of dollars. Since no coins have even come close to Litecoin, as of yet, my estimate is that Vert could reach a 100 million market cap, if the technical basis really is absolutely favorable. I'm uneducated on analyzing every which facet of this asic-resistant scrypt coin, as of right now, either way. I still put in .8btc worth, at a fairly high price.

does Pool Luck (24 Hour) matter when I choose which node I should mine apart from latency?
Small tip for others..I had lots of rejects and I have followed one tip and reduced my intensity from 20 to 19 and stales went down to 15% and I have reduced further to 18 and now i'm getting consisted 5-6% with only 10-11kh/s drop (450->439)...wil test more intensisites later Wink

Make sure you have zero or near zero hardware errors. With Vertcoin expect to lower the thread concurrency compared to regular scrypt. At 15% stales that is higher than I would feel comfortable with, is there no p2pool with lower latency?

What hasrate are you getting atm? I'm hashing for 350-355 per card.

lets see if we can get improved mining performance Smiley


Updated from 0.5.2 to 0.5.3 and working fine. Hash rate has increased 10khs per card, R9280x.

Cheers

is the miner update mandatory?

no

if you have no issues e.g. with R9 cards, there is no need to update
