Title: AMD R9 380 mining QUBIT Algo - how ? Post by: hagie on April 16, 2016, 08:07:57 PM Is it possible to mine QUBIt with a Tonga (R9 380/380x) cards. ?
sgminer won't compile a kernel for it ... my fault , amd driver fault or just impossible at the moment ? Regards Title: Re: AMD R9 380 mining QUBIT Algo - how ? Post by: adaseb on April 16, 2016, 08:12:03 PM Probably not worth it since there are no optimized kernels for your Tonga card. Its best with Tahiti

Beware it's little more than a toy and for the time being I'm not even actively maintaining it. It's a strange beast and users have reported performance is quite odd. Also try running some games in the background! I'm interested in keeping them smooth! Title: Re: AMD R9 380 mining QUBIT Algo - how ? Post by: hagie on April 18, 2016, 10:09:51 AM I will try this evening ..
If there is no optimized kernel, isn't it possible to use standard openCL instructions ? Regards Title: Re: AMD R9 380 mining QUBIT Algo - how ? Post by: sp_ on April 18, 2016, 10:37:41 AM http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/optimized-qubit-kernel/
Rename the tahiti binfile to get 12MHASH on the r9 380 Title: Re: AMD R9 380 mining QUBIT Algo - how ?

I think this miner works best with 15.7.1 I'm using the latest driver - the main job of the graphic card is gaming. I just thought about the possibility to use it for mining.
