Title: Novel/Experimental CryptoNight GPU Optimizations; Open Source; AMD+Nvidia Post by: F848 on May 13, 2018, 12:07:22 PM Work continues here: https://github.com/949f45ac/xmrig-HIP (See first reply itt as well, for current status.) Original OP: Hey everyone. I’ve developed a new miner on the basis of xmr-stak-nvidia. Here is the link: https://github.com/949f45ac/xmr-stak-hip It is all open source and can run both AMD and Nvidia cards, usually a bit faster than the other open source miners. (I did not test against closed source.) Building requires a quite specialized setup with ROCm (https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/#installing-from-amd-rocm-repositories). If you run Nvidia cards, there is a portable binary in the "releases" section. I could upload one for AMD as well, but you’ll still need to setup ROCm to run it, so you may as well build the miner yourself. As for the hashrates, here is a small table with some test results. ("Previous" = open source CUDA/OpenCL monero7 implementations that come with xmr-stak/xmrig.) As you can see, the HIP miner does especially well on power-optimized settings.
Notes:
Dev donation address in the miner is unchanged. If you insist on giving me coins personally, addresses are in the README. You may also just give a star to the repo or send me some thanks, if you use this miner and like it.

just going to point out I’m still working on this, updated with CN/2 and multi algo switching included via xmrig base: https://github.com/949f45ac/xmrig-HIP There’s interesting CN/2 performance in some cases, and CN/1 I have also been able to make faster. Of course, RX Vega generally works well on Linux now, so this miner has become a bit more useful. Current exemplary numbers:
If you’re interested in trying new stuff, give this one a spin~ I’ll be glad to help out with any issues, and hear about results. Cheers |
