Title: Different Gpu-threads on vertminer(7950&280x) Post by: valetrm on April 05, 2014, 08:00:19 AM Hi all,
i'm mining an adaptive algo coin with Kev Vertminer but my rig is composed by 2 7950 and 2 280x. How can i set different numbers on gpu-threads?? Command "gpu-threads" : "2,2,1,1" isn't accepted by my miner in .config file. Title: Re: Different Gpu-threads on vertminer(7950&280x) Post by: henrik_z on April 05, 2014, 09:20:52 AM AFAIK no fork of vertminer currently supports different thread numbers, sgminer style.
I'd suggest you try running two instances of vertminer, one with -g 1, one with -g 2, each with only the relevant devices enabled. eg if Device 0,1 are your 7950s: -g 1 -d 0,1 and -g 2 -d 2,3 This worked for me in brief testing, no reason this shouldn't work longer term that I'm aware of (I ended up leaving my mixed-card rigs on sgminer and I'm only running vertminer on my 290X rigs) Title: Re: Different Gpu-threads on vertminer(7950&280x) Post by: valetrm on April 05, 2014, 10:09:11 AM I tried running two instances but when i start the second client it takes the first one config of gpu's thread. Naturally in the first one was enabled only 2 gpu's and the others on the second.
Probably i have to run two completely different miner? Sgminer and vertiminer for example? Title: Re: Different Gpu-threads on vertminer(7950&280x) Post by: dspair on April 05, 2014, 12:13:37 PM There is a version of sgminer that supports both VTC mining AND different number of gpu threads, I'm pretty sure it's this one https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=17533.msg146069#msg146069
To mine VTC: sgminer --kernel psw --nfactor 11 P.S. You might get better results on different kernel, I just use psw. Title: Re: Different Gpu-threads on vertminer(7950&280x) Post by: valetrm on April 05, 2014, 02:34:35 PM Thanks a lot man!!!!
It seems works!!!! Now i have to improve a better config! Is psw kernel good for vtc? ;D |
