Cant get my 280X work with new X15 sgminer, even did some Fire coin mining some days ago. Any idea? Thx

on my 1g memory (or above) 5xxx and 6xxx cards ,the bitblockold algorithm works fine,but 512m cards can't run,says not enough memory.
I tried to decrease TC or increase LG,can't work neither.
seems that parameter "--thread-concurrency" and "--lookup-gap" don't play a part in Bitblockold algorithm.
Is there any other ways that can  decrease the memory occupancy in order to let my 512m cards run the x15 algo?
Drop WS to 64 (or even 32 which I have not tried), gpu-threads 1.  However I never got my 5450 to work on X15 ...
I've already tried,but it didn't take effect

Make sure to delete the .bin file before restarting sgminer or your changed config will not be recompiled ...

Anyone know how to get x15 on PiMP?

I've seen "hamsi-expand-big" : "4"
in some configs scattered about bitcointalk threads ... any explanation what this is for?

Forcefed may be on to something there I'm pretty sure i'm using lasybear's version of sgminer ... I forgotten where I got it, been quite a while ago.

utahjohn - so continuing the conversation from the Wafflepool thread...

I backed up all my configs and updated to the PiMP 1.5.5-amd-14.4 distro image which has Catalyst 14.4.

Copied over your optimized cl files and the bin files (your X13 bin and someone else's optimized bin for X11).

Results are almost exactly the same as I had under the 13.12 drivers on 14.4:


Any higher on "some" of the GPU's core/mem speeds get me HW errors or SICK GPUs.

Playing with other values such as variations on intensity, shaders, GPU threads, etc, get me lower values than these.

Any ideas?

I've been seeing my highest hashrates using I=18.  If I go to 19 or higher, or 17 or lower, it will fall off.  

Try I=18 and then see if you can goose the memclocks up 10 at a time and see what happens.

(If I go above 1500 memclock, or  1100 engine clock, my gpus will start checking out.)

What are you using for gpu threads? 4 seems to work ok for me,  I will lose hash if I go to 1. I forget what happens if I go to 2 or 3.  

I have sapphire hd7950 though,  don't know much about the MSI cards other than they might drink a little more power.

Edit: Also wanted to add that I'm using the lasybear x11/x13 miner,  although I don't know if the modded x13 kernel loaded into a different sgminer basically would give the same performance. Maybe trying  that miner would help.  It is based  off of the "2% fee" miner but does not send hash out to anyone.

Hello..

So it kinda seems like everyone is running there gpu full tilt boogie on x11 etc ! Which is  fine, if you have cheap power rates. Im paying about .12 a killa watt. So its a bit high. I ran scypt for full throttle for about 4 months. I finally realized that running a heavy under volt was the way to go. It didn't really pay off to have the rig pulling massive watts form the wall. Heres a little example. One rig with 6 270 was pulling 1080 watts on scrypt. Hashing around 2900 kh/s. I undervolted to .950 and was able to get 2520 kh/s at 705 watts. So my question is has anyone found some good hashing power with new or old drivers on x11 while still pulling minimal watts from the wall?

x11 uses about half the power of scrypt which is another reason why it's so popular with GPU miners. Using the newest 14.6 drivers with any x11 supported sgminer version should give you good hashing at a much lower power cost compared to scrypt. Plus it'll be more profitable.

sgmienr 4.1.0 wont accept x11mod.cl
hmm ?

Not doing anything wrong, sgminer v5 has been modified in that when you specity x11mod you actually get darkcoin-mod kernel.  Look at the binfile created by v5.  same thing happens with x13mod kernel specified, you get marucoin-mod bin file.
The x11mod and x13mod .cl posted in OP and the bin posted on OP do work great with sgminer 4.1.0

The optimized x11mod and x13mod .cl DO NOT WORK on sgminer v5

hi guys, i have 280x cards but max speed in X11 is still 3.2 MH Tongue
anyone can give me 100% working source with 4.2MH/s on 280x ?
meaby i am using wrong source

sources from here: https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/tree/v5_0
branch v5.0
14.6 ati drivers

Code:
-k x11mod

--gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1500 --auto-fan
--temp-target 65 --temp-overheat 70 --temp-cutoff 80

R9 280x speed only 3.1MH

X13@1060/1400 = 2.89mh/s
-I 19 -w 256 -g 2 --thread-concurrency=8192

And same settings for X11 = 4.1mh/s
what GPU?
