Title: noob question about .bin and .cl
Post by: iarsenaux on January 31, 2014, 09:32:51 PM
I was following a guide that says i need to use an optimized .bin file rather than optimized .cl file. How would i do that? How would i make my miner run using a .bin file and not .cl file?

Make sure that you use the same parameters as the generated bin file, i.e. : scrypt130511Tahitiglg2tc8192w256l4 -> use -g 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 -w 256

You copy that .bin to the miner folder or to where you launch it from, and then must use the exact settings on the config file that match that .bin. For example: scrypt130511Tahitiglg2tc24000w256l4.bin

"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency": "24000",
"worksize" : "256",
