Still trying to push my cards to the limit, one of my 2gb hynix rx560 really lucked out in the silicon lottery, now got it doing ~537 H/s stable @1292/2175 mhz To hold this speed it needed a power limit increase to +35%, at 30% it would fluctuate and sometimes drop to 521 H/s. Great cryptonight miner this little beast  Wish AMD didn't suck at equihash, would have more viable coins to mine now. |

This is crazy my msi 2gb hynix card is a lot better than I thought. Doing ~505h/s stable, never thought card could reach this. Changes were decrease of intensity from 432 to 424 per gpu thread as I mentioned above, +30% power limit, oc to 2050 mhz memory, core clock was left at 1292 mhz Amazing what a small tweak can accomplish.  |

Did some experimenting with the intensity in xmr-stak today. My rx560 cards have 2gb hynix.
Copied a popular config and I always had it on the recommended 432 intensity in 2 gpu threads.
Anything over 432 is unstable. Tried 416 but it decreases hash rate a bit. Tried 424 and it seems to be the sweet spot for my cards. Has the same max hash rate as 432 with less fluctuation, plus it allowed much higher OC.
Pushed my average from 460h/s to 474h/s. May be able to get higher but might have to increase power limit.
Looks like some cards do prefer a slightly lower intensity than the recommended.

Does Hynix suck for overclocking?
My pbe one click modded hynix starts getting unstable in windows benchmarks at only 1865 mhz
When in was unmodded it could overclock over 2000 mhz, is it normal to have a lower oc ceiling when timings are modded?
Most BIOS mods tighten the read/write timings of the VRAM and, yes, this does tend to lower the maximum stable clock frequency, but this is usually a good tradeoff to make as far as mining performance goes. Cool, thanks for clarifying bro. My hynixes are doing 460h/s each, not the worse though, my friend's microns only do 440h/s. Wish I had elpidas. Mining the new TRIT coin now. |

Frustrating high difficulty already for dual gpu, so ridiculous on first day.
Why does cryptonight difficulty have to grow so much faster than equihash?
|
|
|
|
|
Difficulty is getting too high now, I saw a 30% decrease in coins mined since last week.
Not jumping ship yet as I can't find any other lower difficulty coin worth mining.

Unreal, ZENCASH made it all the way to freaking coinpayments.net  Meanwhile, BTCZ continues to exist inside a pipe dream. |

I dont get it why this coin is so undervalued ... $11 mln market and still just around 100 satoshi ...  Market cap is low because it's listed on low volume exchanges only. I can't help but wonder if it had come out before the other zec forks like zencash,zclassic, it would have had no problem getting on Cryptopia or other big exchanges without resistance. |

Does your card only have 2gb of vram?
My 2gb rx560 has problems with the blockchain driver and also problems with the newer drivers when workload is switched to compute mode, unfortunately I have to leave the workload on graphics mode for it to mine reliably.
I think it's better to have 4gb or higher vram card to use the blockchain driver or compute mode with newer drivers.
I use the 17.11.4 driver and leave workload on graphics, but still get good hash speed after one click bios mod and overclock to 1300/1850.

My windows wallet was fine up to this week but all of a sudden had many problems, always had to reindex to fix it, so I gave up.
Using the Linux wallet instead on another computer with no problems at all.

I also use xmrstak, tweaked to use 2 gpu threads it performs just as good as sgminer.

quick question , which is better for this miner ? GPU core speed or GPU RAM speed ?
Typically with Equihash, overclocking the ram will produce an increased hashrate. Claymore's ZCash miner: Overclocking the core clock speed increased hashrate. Overclocking or underclocking the GPU RAM actually decreased hashrate, with overclocking also decreasing GPU stability. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me given that Equihash is a memory hard algorithm. Its possible that increasing the gpu clock might help some, but that's not what's doing the majority of the processing so it should not produce a significant change in hashrate. I'm not sure what your doing, perhaps this depends on the type of card your dealing with, however, the above is my experience with the R9 380X. No, he's right. It's possible with some AMD cards to get more hash by overclocking core but not memory. This is especially true with modded bios, the tighter memory timings sometimes already give maximum speed at stock memory clock. |

My MSI Aero 2gb hynix seems to like a slightly higher power limit. I get 5% higher hash with +10% power limit.

wow, what a drastic market volatility. How is everyone?
You sure you're talking about BTCZ? No volatility here, because there's no market cap as it's struggling to get listed on a single respectable exchange. |

How much longer can difficulty remain <200K  |
|

It really should have more closely followed the other zcash forks with max supply.

Having an exchanger would be a great idea, would finally have another (presumably) low-fee alternative to CoinPot and FaucetHub, for those of us who want to exchange small amounts of Altcoins.
