Title: Asus R9 390x... what are the best settings?
Post by: megacrypto on September 30, 2016, 04:41:58 PM
I just got an Asus R9 390x and been running genoil miner to mine ETC at an average 25mh/s without any configs ... its been running for a day and some now with this constant rate.

I also tried wolf's xmr miner to mine Monero and got around 500 h/s...

so, I was wondering what would be the best setup for the card. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and fglrx drivers with amd SDK 3.

I personally use sgminer-gm at 1040/1500 and get about 30Mh. you should be able to do the same if not better.

thank you for your help, but i will have to ask you (and excuse me i've been trying to figure this out)... this is the base conf file with sgminer-gm:

Code:
{
    "pools": [{
        "url": "stratum+tcp://stratumpool.address:port",
        "user": "ethaddress",
        "pass": "x"
    }, {
        "url": "http://getwork.pool:port",
        "user": "worker",
        "pass": "pass"
    }],
    "profiles": [{
        "gpu-powertune": "0",
        "worksize": "192",
        "name": "eth",
        "algorithm": "ethash",
        "gpu-threads": "1",
        "xintensity": "1024"
    }],
    "no-extranonce": "true",
    "default-profile": "eth",
    "api-allow": "W:10.0.0.0/8",
    "temp-target": "72",
    "auto-gpu": true,
    "gpu-fan": "45-85",
    "api-port": 4028,
    "temp-cutoff": "82",
    "api-listen": true,
    "auto-fan": true,
    "temp-overheat": "80"
}

I'm not very sure what all these settings are, and what exactly you mean by 1040/1500 ?

In the "url": "stratum+tcp://stratumpool.address:port" put your ethereum pool address:port, and in user put your ethereum address. to start the miner click "sgminer_win64.exe".

1040Mhz on the core, 1500Mhz on the memory.

First find a way to undervolt somewhere to 0.95-1.0 area.

For xmr memclock 1500, for dagger 1250. Core as high as it goes with undervolting.

You will end up hashing dagger at 30 +- 3MH/s and xmr at 850 +- 50H/s.

now undervolting is something that i still have to figure out also, but after i figure out how to setup the config files :))

Claymore has some really good miners, you should start from there, almost nothing to config.

Last time I checked it worked.

Profits are getting pretty thin here so don't expect too many howto´s.

the dual ethereum one works on linux, but his cryptonight doesn't .... will give it a shot and see if it does better than genoil

Wolf0 has a fast opensource cryptonight miner.

I'm using it right now... getting around 800h/s without any tweaks to the config file
