1701  Bitcoin / Mining / How many graphics cards windows support on: March 22, 2011, 09:57:55 AM
Hi,

I am really confused or don't know what i was.
My question is how many graphic cards windows 7 32 supports, Is 64 bit supports more graphic cards?
or other windows version support more cards?
Or at least which operating supports most graphic cards?
which supports more graphic cards, 32 bit or 64 bit OS?

Also, the graphic cards mean, the number of chips in graphic card or just graphic card itself?

5970 & 6990 have 2 chips, is that mean 2 or 1 for windows or any other OS?

I saw many typed windows only support 4 chips, thats 2 x 5970 or 6990 cards & Linux supports 8 chips, thats 4 x 5970 or 6990.
From where this information came?
I searched internet, but can't able to find number of graphics card an OS supports.

Please some one or more than one, explain me or tell me how many graphics cards an OS supports & also give the link from where you got that information.

I want to build some new mining rigs & confused how many graphic cards can i use in a single pc?

Please me help with your knowledge.
Thanks.

Welcome to bitcoin mining.

Uninstall the ati driver & sdk 2.3 u have completely using some uninstallers like revo uninstaller.
Download & install https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/10-10_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_ocl.exe
select custom & install these 4 for mining only, Ati display driver, Ati catalyst control manager, sdk 2.2, vc++
You can start mining.

In THEORY you can get bitcoins A BLOCK OF 50 COINS by mining solo with just -0.5 ~ 1 Ghash/s.
But the question is when?

Haven't you seen BTCmine & bitcoinpool.
Even though they mine at not 1, but 4-5 Ghash/s, its very very difficult for them to get a block.

You can even control this entire universe with just a hair, but in theory only, NEVER in practical.
Statistics is to say you can win, but to win practically you have to run with LUCK.

They get a block every day at least on most days... That isn't too bad

at ~900Mh/s you get a block every 4 days or so on average, almost 2 per week and about 4 per difficulty change...

As per you said 50 coins , if lucky , can get in 4 days at ~900Mh/s.
I am currently getting at least 3 coin per day at 275 Mh/s running 20 hours a day, coz of power cuts.
so for 4 days 12 coins at my speed.
275*3.5=~950
12*3.5=42.

so, in pool i am SURE, i MUST get 42 coins at least if i run at ~950Mh/s in 3.5 days.

what it is?

you giving source code, so that , i myself build (what)? miner or client in windows like others build their own in linux from source?
please explain, i am zero in programming stuff.

1709  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: poclbm using CPU 100% even though using GPU? on: March 21, 2011, 08:57:32 PM
I just  spent 2 hours trying to solve the issue by installing different versions of both the Catalyst drivers and the stream SDK- nothing helped.

Combinations I tried:
10.09 + 2.1 SDK
10.10 + the included OpenCL runtime
10.10 + 2.1 SDK
11.2 + 2.1 SDK
11.2 + 2.3 SDK
11.4rc2 + 2.3 SDK

.. and maybe some others. Every combination still used 100% of a CPU core for each GPU core.

Hope this saves some time from others. Any ideas on how to fix the issue are also welcome Smiley

Uninstall every ati driver & sdk using some uinstallers like revo uninstaller.
Also never install sdk from stand alone adk package, instead install from driver package.
If you have 5000 series card, install 10.12 & 2.1 sdk.
If you have 6000 series card, install 11.2 & 2.3 APP.

You haven't mentioned what card you have, what OS & how many Mhash/s you getting.
Instead of going express install, go for custom install & install only these 4.
ATI display driver, ATI catalyst install manager, APP 2.3 or SDK 2.1 & VC++

wow >250% EFF, really unbelievable. But the saying "DUPLICATE NOT SUBMITTED" makes me feel both good & bad that i mined same share 2 times in same time(like giving birth to twins) & one is rejected, coz its a duplicate.
1711  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [NEW POOL & NEW MINER] - BitcoinPool.com - Jump In! on: March 21, 2011, 07:22:30 PM
A share you got to solve which is a small part of a very large block.
you solve the share & you submit it, the server checks the share you submitted is from which block.
If the block you got the share has been solved even before you submitted the share, then server rejects your share saying, its stale or invalid.
Every 10 minutes a block is released in the network.
So, the share will become stale if you are solving very slowly, that is low hash/s.
All users get stale shares, even the one who has more hash/s. But low hash/s users get more, because, they don't no yet that the share they are trying to solve is already solved by the network & 50 coins sent to them.
Long polling tells the miner that a new block is released, so leave the current share & get new share.


I am not that good in understanding the backgrounds & basis of mining, so i may be wrong.
Correct some one, if i am wrong.
1712  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Cooperative mining (130Ghash/s) on: March 21, 2011, 06:58:54 PM
So I started mining on your pool today and right now according to my miner I have over 1500 accepted shares but in the "My account" page it is only showing around 300.

Can you help me understand a little better why that is?

That is nothing to worry. With your miner, you so far solved 1500 shares today only, for many blocks.  The my account page shows the shares in current block. 1500 = (300 share of current block + xxx shares of previous block + xxx share of previous block + ............)

im using cat 11.4 beta with steam sdk 2.4

clock 870/1250
getting 325000 khash/s

you can find the driver here http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/Catalyst114earlypreview.aspx

Hmm just lost 10 mhash/s using these newer versions. Man this is frustrating.
So far the best results I have got at my current clocks (1000/300) is 275 mhash/s with SDK2.1 and 10.7 Drivers...


What version of card do you have?

For 5000 series card sdk below 2.3 only works good.

The best seems 10.12 or 10.11 with 2.1   as said before.
The 11.4 & 2.4 preview akka BETA works well with 6000 series.
http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4493.0

Lowering memory below 300 Mhz actually decreases hash/s & freezes windows.
Also, it seems there is some kind of formula there between memory frequency & core frequency, it seems in the form of core clk =3(3.Huh??) x mem clk which gives the Maximum hash/s
I get Maximum 280 Mhash/s at 1038 core clk & 360-370 mem clk.
Seems it differ for everyone. Please try increasing mem clk every 5-10 mhz while mining in back & see the change in hash/s & Please also post it, if u can able to get any max hash/s at any particular frequency while keep the core clk at max with out freezing.

lowering mem clk reduces TEMP up to 10C to me.

you can increase the core clk up to <1040 with out freezing. even 1041 freezes after some time.
i got freezing at 1047 after 1-2 hours mining & not touching pc

Thanks dishwara, I made an updated EXE. It's the same code as yesterday but extracts to a folder properly.

*** MINER UPDATE - 03/21/2011 ***

DOWNLOAD: poclbm-mod.03.21.2011.zip (Win32/Linux) 7.9MB

Changes / Updates:
  • Proper tracking of the percentage of hashspace worked through.
  • Local tracking of all submitted shares prevents duplicates from being submitted.
  • "Emp." is now an integer and not a percentage
  • Resolved issue resulting in ~40% drop in submitted:requested
  • Searches as much of the hash space as possible without causing re-work.

I recommend you update ASAP.

Happy mining!


Nothing happens clicking the link. It just opens a empty page with this address http://bitcoinpool.com/file.php?id=4

I dropped down to 10.7 and SDK 2.2 and I got an increase of only 2-5 mhash/s , not really what I was hoping for, going to try SDK 2.1 and if no increase I will stick with my original config. If you can check what version of driver you have I would appreciate it , thanks.

Update: Ok now I uninstalled 2.2 and installed 2.1 and actually see a decent increase, I am up to 270 mhash/s , so sdk 2.1 seems the best, but driver wise there are so many I can be here forever trying them all, anyone have an idea? I am using 10.7 right now.

Thanks in advance, if anyone could help I really appreciate it.  Grin

Try 10.12 or 10.11, Most says for 5000 series this gives max hash/s


How do you change the SDK?

You have to uninstall SDK through add/remove pgms if in windows until 2.2
ATI stream sdk 2.x
& also delete the folder in C:\ATI

If 2.3 then you can use driver installer itself, by running it & selecting uninstall & can remove what u don't want & can then again run 11.4 driver to install 2.4
