Title: Any x13 miner for 58/59xx series AMD GPU?
Post by: grendel25 on June 02, 2014, 12:11:15 AM
Hi, anyone have a good link to an x13 miner that supports 58xx/59xx series AMD GPUs?  thx

What is wrong with the one from lasybear? I have a 5850 and x11 and surely x13 work just fine. What seems to be the problem?

5870 6950 6870 cards no works for me with this miner. Only HW errors and no accepted shares. Show your config.

Same here, I have 5870 and 5970 and I can't find an X13 miner that works for these cards.

This is just my assumption, but it seems the x13mod kernel is optimized for GCN core cards, ie. 7xxx/R7/R9 series. The 5xxx/6xxx run VLIW core technologies, totally different than GCN.

That's irrelevant.  Plenty of algos are mined with cards that were never 'optimized' for a particular algo.  But thx for the bump.  Maybe someone helpful will post now :)

You're welcome! It's miner with modified kernel x13mod.cl working with 58/59xx series, but is not so fast : http://sendfile.pl/225633/sgminerx13.zip

EDIT (!) "Your_user" , and "Your_pass" in config file.

LOL...It is relevant, because the GCN core is more like a cpu structure and VLIW is more just a graphic accelerator than compute type gpu. So, that why is easier to optimize GCN card, than VLIW. Even Nvidia Maxwell core is kind of copying AMD's GCN core. More vectorization coding is needed to assist the VLIW cards.

Why does my 5850 work then? I run 14.4 drivers, start the miner with...default settings work, maybe itensity 15-16 and I mine at over 1Mh/s.

Which one? Because I've tried 3 of the x13mod kernels and only one kind of works, but with some errors.

This working http://sendfile.pl/225633/sgminerx13.zip I have 860 kH/s on Radeon 5850 (Win'7 64 and Catalyst 13.12).
