1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [Cast XMR] high speed XMR/CryptoNight miner for RX Vega GPUs (2 KHash/s) on: November 20, 2017, 03:30:49 AM
Has anyone gotten castXMR working on an SSL server on port 443? I haven't had success yet. What's the connection string for supportXMR, for example?

PLEASE add an API ASAP!

I'm trying to set up my own monitoring solution using a .NET app I wrote that launches Cast and redirects the stdout and stderr to my app so that I can parse the text Cast spits out.  But I'm not getting the console output from Cast and I can't figure out why.
or at least log to a file option...

Just run "castxmr.exe > log.txt". It'll redirect stdout to a file. Monitor it however you like. Done.

I'm running 4 Vega 56 with stock BIOS and was able to get 1950 h/s on 3 of them, but my 4th is only running at 1720 h/s. I am using block chain drivers, tried disabling and re-enabling everything and all of the cards are over clocked to the exact same settings. Anyone know of any reason why this might be happening?



I have an RX 580 that generates 10% lower hashrate despite all GPU-Z readings being the same. Just a shit set of silicone.

Yeah but how much of that are you giving to the power company? How many watts per card under those settings?


At 4% overvolt it's about 208-212W per card. At 0.119 kWh pricing it's plenty profitable, about 1.02 XMR/month under current difficulty while the power cost is ~$18/month for the card itself. Given that 1XMR = ~$120 today, that's plenty of margin.

As for castXMR outdated jobs, I am running about 2.2% outdated jobs. Will have to compare this to xmr-stak-amd soon but it's far lower than what others are reporting here. I find the hashrate reported on supportXMR to be generally correct, adjusting for the fact that supportXMR's pooling/graphing doesn't really show perfectly with any miner that I've found. I get the right amount of shares, which is all that matters.

Finally got single MSI Vega 56 to run stable with xmr-cast-vega.  My key was getting the temp right <65 to stay stable and keep MEM < 950
Block chain drivers and reset driver prior to running.  Very stable.

Freq: -8%
Mem: 945
Power +10
Rate:  1980
Fan: ~3400 min
Temp: 64
Ave Search 45 secs, no errors

or

Freq -8%
Mem: 935
Power +0
Rate 1950
Fan: ~2500 min
Temp: 62

Not bad, both very stable, but I have not been able to get to the fabled 2000 Wink


Here's my question.  I mined 24 hrs with nicehash
Nicehash reports between 1.33 and 2.2 at any given time and is quite variable on their BTC profitability curve through the day.
anyone have good/bad NiceHash experience or can explain this phenomenon?

Or, suggest a more profitable pool to point to?

Thanks

Try these; this gets me to 2000 h/s on my single Vega 56 card unmodded.

Core Frequency: -10%
Memory Clock: 965 MHz
Power Limit: +4
Fan: Maximum

Run using -I 9 switch on the command line as well to maximize intensity.

Nicehash is a different beast of a pool. Try mineXMR/supportXMR or the like if you want lower fees and to be paid in XMR, not BTC.

I have 5 rx 570 and 1 rx 580. I am running amd stak gpu without any error but Cast xmr gives me error.

"Error cl_device_not_found calling clGetDeviceIDs for number of devices"

This is my config file: "cast_xmr-vega -S pool_adress -u my_wallet -p x -G 0,1,2,3,4,5"

What should i do?

Massively increase the amount of virtual memory. I ran into this problem myself today with 3xRX580s.

Though virtual memory doesn't actually seem to be used, there's some check when mining begins to see if there's enough room. Not sure why. But it exists.
