The main GPU is not working at 100%, what can be done?

hi,

trying to solo mine using latest node-cryptonote-pool installed locally and few rigs with 750ti and 6970.

if I sum up hash rate shown in the miner windows I get total hash rate around 12.5 kh/s, but the pool web gui shows only avg. total rate of 8-9 kh/s.

what could be the reason in the mismatch of hash rates ?

@bullus, thanks.

I have H81 btc pro, g1820, 4gb 1333mhz ram - not sure if it can be the cause of 100kh per card less performance :\ ?

How do you have the cards connected ?

I have also 5970 in the same rig, don't know, if this could also be the reason for the slightly lower hash rate.

Are u running te same clocks?
I already said I was using an old bin file, if I created a new one with the latest miner I also get ~-100kh/s.
Let's see if I can upload my binfile somehow.

 Grin

I do lose ~ 100 kh/s per card using the new bins, but even with old (or your) bins I reach max of 2200 kh/s.
I can see you using "gpu-threads", it makes miner more rely on the cpu, which is less powerful in my case and max gpu freq I can squeeze for solid work is around 910 - 920 mhz.

Anyhow, an extra thanks for the uploaded bin!

how many cards do you have in the rig ? are all 6970 ? what cpu / ram have you ?

p.s. thnx for the reply

What clocks is your 6970 running at?

950/1375 ~2300kh/s with an older binfile..no increase seen with the new 14.6miner and or cl files

899/1399 Smiley

On 5850 and 6970 there is improvement with 14.6 opencl files
5850 now makes 900+KH on x13, 6970 is above 1400.
I used the version from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=658975.0, initially I reported no speed up, but I had messed bat/conf files.
Tested under 13.12 with opencl files from 14.6 copied into sgminer folder and deleting all bins

I found the opencl files in AMD folder inside \Packages\Drivers\Display\WB6A_INF\B171094 (after decompressing the 14.6 driver package without installing it, or with 7zip)
I don't know which are needed, so I copied everything that had "opencl" or "amdocl" in the filename into the sgminer folder (8 files, dlls & exes).
Deleted all previous bins, and now it's even better (+3%) than using the bins from 14.6 (I have 14.4 drivers installed).





hi @qmerk , @restless

I have 14.4, took 8 files ( amd_opencl32.dll, amd_opencl64.dll, amdocl.dll, amdocl_as32.exe, amdocl_as64.exe, amdocl_ld32.exe, amdocl_ld64.exe, amdocl64.dll) from 14.6 and put into sgminer folder, but no gain compared to lazybear's release in mining x11. tried few of the sgminer versions produced by djm34, including the initial one on the first page of the thread.

Could you please dump your sgminer config or command line parameters, whichever may be relevant.
Or if possible, could you also share the bin files generated by sgminer.

p.s. with lazybear's release & 14.4 driver & opencl files I get around 2180 kh/s mining x11 per each slightly overclocked 6970, have few of these in the rig.

Code:
{
"kernel" : "x11mod",
"intensity" : "21",
"worksize" : "128",
"lookup-gap" : "2"
}

any working 14.6 bin for 69XX, 58XX, 59XX ?
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Sgminer (AMD 14.4 WHQL) Hashrate Improvement - fixed on: June 20, 2014, 01:00:19 PM
tried on 6950 (unlocked shaders), 6970, 5970 in a pc (H81 BTC PRO,RAM 4GB, G1830, W64, USB3 powered PCIE risers).

switched the driver from 14.4 to 14.6, after switching the driver, tried Lasybear's sgminer released on 2014-06-03 (successfully used by me before) and sgminer released yesterday by djm34 and got about 5% decrease on both miners in mining performance of x11 based coins.

Haven't used DDU this time for the driver update, used native AMD uninstaller & installer (felt lazy to restart pc into safe-mode because of lack of an attached monitor at the time and non-operational Teamviewer in the safe-mode). Checked driver version (14.2) in the device manager and it does correspond to catalyst 14.6 package.

Should I wait for an update of the the sgminer with better support of 6XXX and 5XXX series, thou some people in the thread report slight increase in performance using the same adapters and the method described in the thread ?

Or should I re-install (using DDU) the 14.6 driver first ?

Any comments are welcome.
