1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Genesis Mining Presents: SGMiner-GM - now with Zawawa's GG! [Updated 17/01/2017] on: February 08, 2018, 03:04:56 PM
This miner appears to have been abandoned, which is a real shame because despite being last updated over a year ago it still performs the best by far on Cryptonight with an XFX RX 560 I recently bought (and which I'll be getting 5 more to make a cheap Cryptonight miner).

Despite the apparent abandonment, I read every single post of this thread looking for an explanation of rawintensity, worksize and gpu-threads and, incredibly, these critical parameters are never really explained. There are bits and pieces here and in the (3+ year old) .md files on the github repo, but it is not clear if those partial explanations apply to all algorithms or just Ethash (the fragments I found here) or Scrypt (in the mining.md file on github).

So here is what I picked up from a couple of posts by OhGodAGirl (one of the original devs of SGMiner), which I've paraphrased/combined below:

Quote
The formula for rawintensity is  #(CUs) x worksize x 4 - so, for a 280x, you'd have 32 x 4 x 4. That gives us 512.

Worksize of 8 can be used, but make sure to change gpu-threads to 1 then (instead of 2).

Start with above calculated rawintensity then decrease by 8 to find best hashrate.

Don't ever use xIntensity. Rawintensity only.

Now here's the kicker... below are the settings that are working the best for my single RX 560 with just 2GB, 16 CU and 1024 shaders:

rawintensity = 416
worksize = 8
gpu-threads = 2

And this contradicts the advice to set gpu-threads to 1 if worksize is 8... I'm not going to sweat that, though, as this combination really does quite well, all things considered - about 460 H/s, which is 40-60 H/s better than the next best performer, xmr-stak.

Even worse, though, is that I have a single RX 570 4GB (which is what I was going to use for a dedicated cryptonight/ethash miner, until prices went full retard) and sgminer crashes immediately after displaying the two line screen about Jannson 2.7 (can't catch it, it goes by too fast), even if I don't set anything for the above parameters.

It's a bit of a longshot, I realize, but any sort of clue as to where to go next in troubleshooting would be helpful. Drivers are Adrenalin 18.1 (Jan 18) and not in compute mode (since that doesn't really help Cryptonight, at least from what I've noticed).



The math is a fairly accurate estimate, but each system varies a bit because of motherboards, drivers, voodoo/kami, etc.

On my 560s (4gig) I use 508, w4, g2. - 450h/s  (on another board, 480 was the magic number)

On my 570s (4gig) I use 896 w8, g2. - 840h/s 

All are bios modded, and moderately overlcocked at 1860-1880.

Those 30 payments were people paying me for a service that I offer - so would those payment be considered income?  The rest the $3 million (listed on the 1099k) is just my personal trading.  No one knew GDAX was going to be sending out 1099K's until the very end of 2017 (and by then, I had racked up thousands of trades).

Obviously if people are paying you for a service or product, it's income.  Roll Eyes 


I'd pay top price for cointracking.info, IF I think it actually worked right.  Thing is it has ALL the balances correctly.  But it says I owe $115 in cap gains after daytrading for 2 days and only actually getting around $40.

Now they want money for me to try it out further because I am over 200 trades, and I am not about to spend a dime on something i am not convinced is working properly.  And they still hvaen't answered my support ticket about this.

I am going to have to manually calculate over 200 trades myself to and figure out how they figure I owe much more money than I got.

This isn't hard to figure out, run the tax report and see what it's showing for the cost basis on your trades.  I'm guessing, but it's probably that you don't have a 'source' for your initial deposits, so it's calculating them as if you got your initial cryptocurrency at $0.

I think you are right - I changed each GDAX deposit to "[In] Income" and the warnings are now GONE.  Now I just need to figure out how to reconcile this mess with the 1099K I received from GDAX.  I know I have to to fill  out Form 8949 (Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets) with the information provided by cointracking.info, and that will go on my Schedule D.  But where do I reconcile the 1099K?  Will that go on a Schedule C?

Assuming it's income, yes.

I have about 30 of these warning messages, which correspond to 30 BTC payments I have received in my Coinbase account from other Coinbase customers (and also for the $10 referral fee paid in BTC I receive for referring customers).

So when someone pays me through Coinbase (in BTC) this transaction just shows as a "Deposit" as it should - Then, there is a corresponding "Withdrawal" transaction and another "Deposit" transaction as I send it to my GDAX trading account.  Now, all these transactions show up with NO cost basis (because there is NO trade associated with them), so the cointracking.info software gives me a "Warning" message in the "Capital Gains" report that says "There is no suitable purchase for this sale" and assumes a $0 USD cost basis.  I have tried adding trades, but the message still persists.  Does anyone know how to handle this type of transaction?

Here are the warnings the capital gains report:

If people are paying you, it's income.  AFAIK you need to edit the initial 'deposits' to 'income'

Love the software. Imported from all my accounts via API fairly easily, and let me change entries from trades to mining quickly.  My taxes are already done and submitted!  

There were a few hiccups the first day, when it was showing me holding odd amounts of cash, ether, etc that diddn't exist.  But after a day those all were fixed.  I also had to go and put in 'spend' transactions for cashouts in coinbase.  Basically just data cleanup for my own use-cases.

Is there an ETA for supporting tradesatoshi's API?  I plan on doing some trading there that I want cointracking to monitor, but it seems there's no support for the API yet.

Thanks!

Since when did it become required for a new coin to announce here?

I'm mining it since yesterday when someone mentioned it to me and before this was posted or I found the reddit. Obviously word-of-mouth was working just fine for this coin to get it's start.

Enough with the butthurt FUD you entitled snowflakes.

It's still more than early enough to get in.  I've been looking for a fun coin to throw some hashing power on, I used to have a ton of doge until cryptsy fscked me.

I know this thread is pretty much dead, (much love to Wolf0 and scrpytr for developing/supporting this version)

 I love sgminer for my 560/570 rig, but I just can't seem to get it to work nicely with my other rig which is all 270/270x.  


      {
            "name": "xmr",
            "algorithm": "cryptonight",
            "rawintensity": "504",
            "worksize": "8",
            "gpu-threads": "1"
        }

This is the best I've come up with, getting ~360h/s per card.  Claymore 9.7 does ~430h/s per card.  (10.2/11 doesn't work well for me)

If anyone has any other numbers to try, I'd be more than happy to try them out.  I'd much rather use sgminer across all my rigs.
change rawintensity to 256 and try again

I've been down this path before, but rechecking... 190h/s at w8, g 1, 250-350h/s at w8 g2, 230-330h/s at w4 g2.  A couple cards don't like this intensity at all. Which is why I'm at 504, and no, cutting it to 252 and adding a thread doesn't help either.  




Claymore uses 448 for old cards

He uses 448 on version 11, which actually mines slower than 9.7, which uses 512.    And yes, I've tried 448 on sgminer.   Do you actually have any results of your own, or are you just spitting out numbers?

My experience is the same as restless.  On my two gigabyte 270OC, 9.7 is still the best.

11.0
-h 448 -dmem 1 (11.0 default) - OpenCL hang.
-h 512 -dmem 0  - 840h/s
-h 256 -dmem 1 - 810h/s

9.7
-h 512 (default) - 855-860h/s
You get 800h/s from 270 oc-ed ?! What clocks ?! Frankly I don't believe it
I get 480-500 from 270x running 1100/1500...

I also get hangs sometimes with 270x and 11.0 - when the card is main one running the display under Win10. Same card under Win7 runs fine 0-o

Read it closer, restless.  I have two cards, that's 425-430 each. Smiley

9.7 'just works' for those of us with pitcairn.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v11.0 on: December 18, 2017, 09:37:22 PM
Really? What cards are doing 400?  my 560s are doing 450, so with the reduced cost and wattage I'd be very very interested.


My RX550 with 2GB gives 420...430 h/s on "Gateless Gate" and on "STAK XMR". The key is "threads=2". With its price under $100 and ~75 Watt power, I think it's a good choice now.

Claymore, please, bring back support of "Polaris 12", at least to the degree as of v9.7 !


What's your raw/intensity?

It's not that bad, it's doing about 400ish with xmr-stak and its rather cheap and easy to find.

For tahiti and Pitcairn it seems still 9.7 is fastest Sad
Very good speedup on Polaris!, 20-30h/s per card or even more

Hmm, in my tests v11 is a bit faster for both Tahiti and Pitcairn, or at least the same. May be you use not optimal settings.

still no support for old HD 7700/7800 cards  Cry Cry
(don't say anything about 9.7 version please, which doesn't have magical "-allcoins" option)

Sorry, I don't not support very old cards anymore.

ETN mining just broken.

Current pool software is optimized as heavy as possible for that coin. Implemented numerous ETN-specific workarounds to somehow improve the situation.

PS: take a look at DubaiCoin https://dbix.fairpool.xyz/, current DBIX profit is higher than real ETN's.

Seems so.  Pool problems across the board with this coin. Even the 'big ones' have connection issues, orphan blocks, or payment problems.

Is it a sync issue on the network? Block times?

I've given up on mining this coin, I'll just buy the dip when the wallet comes online and the ICOs dump.

I still love your pool/interface!

I have been mining for 48 hours in your pool and never get what your calculator said. Even half of that.  Angry

Poor pool luck the last couple days.  Even with the poor pool luck I still made more than I did at easyhash before I switched (and without the problems getting paid), and more than what I would have mining XMR.

Glad to see Fairpool has an ETN pool now. The front-end has always been my favorite, minimal clicking, worker support, all the stats I need right there on one page.  No bouncing from slow page to slow page always having to re-enter my wallet, no confusing layouts.


Plus, admin has been super-responsive to suggestions.  A month or so ago I requested/suggested that the current difficulty and price be added to the stats, and within just a day or two it was added.

If they had an XMR pool I wouldn't have to go anywhere else! (Hint hint!)

I _will_ be moving my rigs over to Fairpool when I get home today!

I just got 3 of these cards (Yay NewEgg Black Friday Deals!) same elpida memory.  I used the PBE one-click timings on the bios and I'm pretty happy with them.   I'm sure there are better timings out there, but the current numbers aren't too bad and with a new baby I just don't have time to tweak.

I'm getting ~780 with a modest overclock (1250/1970) with SGMiner.  Claymore could get over 800 with the same OC, but it wasn't running stable/reliably.  I'm sure SGminer can match it, I just haven't found the right settings yet.

I haven't checked my power yet as I'm not finished with the build.

Newegg had Sapphire Nitro+ 570 4gbs on sale for 209.   I snagged 3 of them before they were sold out.

Saw it in their ad, set my alarm and had them in my cart 1 minute after the deal went live.
