Please use team red miner for lyra2z and lyra2rev3 coins: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5027811.0.

This miner is currently not being actively developed

mkxminer versions 1.0 - 3.1 were supporting only lyra2rev2 algorithm. But it is now dead for GPU miners, because ASICs completely destroyed lyra2rev2 profitability.
mkxminer version 4.0+ do not support lyra2rev2 anymore. Here is the old lyra2rev2 related thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2360168

Linux AMD driver 18.10 cannot work.  :'(

i'm getting a an error
Device not supported: "gfx900", only AMD GCN cards are supported.

it's a Radeon Vega56  ::)


so... what is the actual dev fee, for the sake of transparency.

I have no problem with using the software with a dev fee, as long as i know what the dev fee is.
TeamRedMiner has no problems with stating what their dev fee is.

a fee i can write off on taxes when the tax man comes along.

Hi!

Is it on Windows or on Linux?

Thanks

Thanks for testing. What's the exact error and what videocard?

Please add Nlpool.nl to your list of multipools.

stuck at last lines. I use Fiji.

same error on windows

Thanks, added.

Windows10 and 18.10.1/18.9.3 drivers.  prior release worked.. this version doesn't

Hi!

Sorry, I'm not quite sure what your quoted text is. Definitely not output from mkxminer or error message.
Please provide more info and I'll try to investigate.

"18.10" is "Ubuntu 18.10", I guess. Server or Desktop?
Which AMD driver?

Thanks

I added issues that I know about, feel free to add more. Thanks

can you do the releases on github also?... makes it a lot easier for me to update computers.

additional details...

gfx900 is when HBCC is turned off   does not work when HBCC turned off
gfx901 is when HBCC is turned on.  it works with HBCC turned on

running 18.10.2 drivers now.

have you tried developing without the blockchain drivers?  the blockchain drivers are supported in the latest released drivers and they're more stable.

and have you tried developing with HBCC off.

HBCC are for the vega cards.  the 500 and 400 series card have a compute/graphic switch in AMD settings window.

Sorry, this is new for me. Will have to read about HBCC, etc.
I have Windows 10 x64 and Vega64. I believe this is the best setup.

As for drivers, I'm using blockchain drivers, because they are stable. I tried with different other drivers as well, but had some issues with 4+ GPUs in one rig.
I can test on latest drivers, probably next week.

18.9.3 have been stable on my machines... i'm running windows10 x64 also.. 18.10.1 it's a crapshoot.  just starting messing with 18.10.2

What are your results with the config you mentioned?

+


i solved issue installing blockchain drivers

I solved the issue by turning HBCC on... like it says in the post.

turning on HBCC is a lot simpler and a lot easier than reinstalling drivers.

how to?

go to your radeon settings.. .it's in there

Is it possible to use this miner on HiveOS?
how to?

+1

I'm asking about HiveOS because I mine Lyra2z with teamredminer but mkxminer should give more hash and I prefer to use mkxminer if it's possible :)

Hey, great little miner!

Any chance it could be made to work with 7950's, 7970's and 280x?

Some of my aging farm it runs, but will not find a share.

Whats weird is: On a  couple of old 7790's the miner works fine and receives share rewards lol

Ok, anything to help would be great! mining Lyra2z of course :)

THX!

Hi good miner but after a few hrs of mining my vega64 becomes dead ive tried lowering the intensity to 17 still becomes dead  any ideas on a config?  ??? Thanks
 

Hi!

Yes, it is possible to make it work on older cards. But the speed is much slower, so not sure if it is even worth it.

For example, compare speed of R9 390 and RX 480. 390 is almost two times slower.
While on other algorithms, for example on Lyra2rev2, it is only about 10% - 20% slower.
Older generations, like Tahiti (7950, R9 280X) would have similar performance to R9 390 (prorated to the number of cores), so I expect R9 280X to be around 1.2MHs now.

I believe you can find a more profitable algo to mine on these old cards.

Thanks

Hi!

Try different drivers. Or decrease powertune. This mining algorithm is heavy on GPU, so make sure the card is not overheating.
Changing config files for mkxminer will not help.

Thanks

Hello miners!

Just wanted to let you know, that with current minimal earnings from mining you may try to decrease your powertune in order to get better MHs per watt ratio.

For example, I decreased my powertune from "-8" to "-30". That lowered my hashrate by about 10%, but the power usage of GPUs decreased by about 25%.

PS: The "API functionality" in mkxminer is almost finished. I think I'll release a new version tomorrow or next week.

Thanks

yes its the FASTEST MINER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but only for new AMD :)

best miner for this GPU(CPU) but i mine only with gpu vega 11 without cpu

no bugs no fails

thx :)

cpu after 10hours temperature at 45 C (cooler is from ryzen 5 2400G box xD )

i look full hd streams 1080p with vega11 AND mine^^ ( i think thats crazy all other miners are so by 360kH or lesser... :O )
i testet my old graphic card with this miner R9 270 gaming 2GB and 50KH!!!!!! hahahahhhaha )
i had 2 monitors at vega 11 / first 1080p (DVI-D) / second 1080p (HDMI)

i not know why he made that but its ok^^

im using the blockchain drivers but im also still using the reg mod because i was still mining monero. Can i  -- powertune 05 or is it -- powertune 5. Im getting around 6.2mh per card. Can i use separate intensity for each device? something like this -I 18,18,16,16,18 --device 0,1,2,3,4,5. Thanks

Any RX570 4GB user ?

Hi all!

New version released:


Only upgrade if you need API functionality or want to use --exitsick. If not, then please keep using v4.1.

Thanks!

Too many shares being rejected these last two days miner saying invalid job id. I had changed pool and tried in different pools but the same result. Im on win 10 using latest version, what is causing this, any idea dev?

having same issues, invalid shares.
looks like is the devpool for dev fee to have the problem.
dev needs to update the miner since it's happening very frequently !

none of the download mirrors work  >:(

Link2 of version 4.2.0 works. Click that mirror.

I have a question:

Is it possible to solo mine wiht LYRA2V2? I mean using 127.0.0.1 / localhost and not STRATUS.
Is there a good miner that I can use?
Thanks in advance.

for AMD was 2 good miners for lyra2v2 - mkxminer and lyclMiner. But at present days mining Lyra2v2 by GPU bad idea itself since start of sells Z1 ASICs

Thanks. I have NVIDIA

I have tried some miners with "-a lyra2v2 -o localhost:port -u ACCOUNT -p PASSWORD"
but it is not working. Most of them only work with STRATUS

Hi,

please add support to lyra2vc0ban algo (c0ban coin).

Thanks.

Please use team red miner for lyra2z and lyra2rev3 coins: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5027811.0.
