Chapter 4.16 of the AMD OpenCL programming guide has some optimization guidelines for GCN. This snippet explains why my vectorization experiment didn't help performance:

Quote from: 4.16 Optimization Guidelines for Southern Islands GPUs
... "Vectorization is no longer needed, nor desirable." ...

Oh well, back to the drawing board!  Grin


Hi, would you be able to help me set up my miner?

What's in it for us ?

On another note, 7970 and I believe the rest of the failure that is CGN will be crap for mining as far as I can see.

More power usage than 5xxx series -> crap MH/s to power consumed ratio
Much more expensive than 5xxx series -> crap MH/s to price ratio

So much for AMD's "Fold and mine faster than ever with AMD App Acceleration powered by the unprecedented 28nm GCN Architecture."

I am waiting for Nvidia to finally step up their game and come to the mining table because they are totally missing out. Their integer performance just sucks !

Also, I am quite happy because my stock of 5870s is just getting more and more demand and valuation by the day with these CGN disappointments.

Roll on AMD, to your grave !

What software are you using to get 446 from a 5870 at 960 core and 300 mem ?

ATI SDK ?
ATI driver version ?

Thank you ! Where are you located in the UK ?

Very good but a bit hard to use.

Gotta be quick so as to not lose track of the market in periods of high volatility.

Thanks !

now this card is out.. how about some ++real++ benchmarks?
this thing has 500 more sp than the 6990 - how can it possibly be slower?Huh


LOL you don't know a thing about mining, do you ?

6990 has 3 072 or 2*1536

5970 has 2*1600 or 3200 shaders

7970 has 2048 shaders

5870 has 1600 shaders

7990 supposedly has 4096 shaders ?


thanks for repeating what i said.
7970 has 2048 SP
6990 has 1536 SP
thats 500 more. per core, whatever, its more, MORE. so why is the card putting out so much less? maybe if you put your effort into explaining a decent answer (such as 'because the miners need re-optimisation') instead of being a flabberfinger - we could have all benefited.

6990 is dual GPU so has total of 3072 shaders gets about 800 mhash/s using two cores total.
7970 is single GPU so has total of 2048 shaders get about 666 mhash/s using one core total.

Get some sleep dude and stay off SR !

I updated the last post with an explanation.

Looks like the coins are out already LOL.

Is that ( 1QE6bWhqizxUVuq55GjL1SErVKH9YCHb7e ) your address ?
1848  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: I want your hasing power! "Project #2" 105% PPS! on: January 09, 2012, 10:49:55 AM
Will change this to 105% in about 30 hours. We will keep 105% for at least 2 weeks but odds are longer.

Thanks.

OK so how much are you going to pay per share from now on ?

50/1250758 = 0.0000399757587

so +5% is = 0.0000419745466

Is that correct ?

Is MM enabled with NMC ? How about TX fees are those shared out ( probably not ) ?

How can I join. I expect to have about 3.5 ghash/s soon.

How does your offer in terms of PPS compare with something like P2Pool ?

Is there a front end where I can check shares submitted etc. ?

Thanks !

According to this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=56630.0 someone is cracking 568 MH/s on a mildly overclocked 7970 already.
650mhash/sec now

Nope, 666 now.

LOL. We are doomed. Why all the signs of the antichrist over in the BTC world ?

$6.66 prices
666 hashrates

What is the meaning ? Grin

How about you get to share that 7970 with others through a pooled fund or something so we can get most optimizations done as a community ?

This product smells something like this.


Why ? What do you mean ?

Are you trying to say it is a trojan or something ?

someone was faster on the draw in that case

Well I figured that out but what about the original first post ?

I am quite interested TBH.
1853  Economy / Speculation / Re: hmm this can be perfect time to steal some moneys? on: January 08, 2012, 11:39:03 PM
did you try & redeem it btw? It's live

no idea about the frozen thingie tho

This code cannot be redeemed (non existing or already used)
1854  Economy / Speculation / Re: hmm this can be perfect time to steal some moneys? on: January 08, 2012, 11:33:18 PM
Well I might not be as sad if somebody at least explains WTF all this is LOL.

The one above is a redeemable Mtgox code but what about the OP first post with "frozen" thingy Huh
1855  Economy / Speculation / Re: hmm this can be perfect time to steal some moneys? on: January 08, 2012, 11:29:33 PM

Thanks !

Eg what is the :

-kernel ? 2.6 ? 3.1 ?
-ati driver ? 11.5 ? 2.5 ? 2.6 ? 2.1 ? 11.12 ?

Is there a GUI like lxde or openbox etc.

Is there a direct download ?

Thanks !

Yes, this dude been promising that laundry for a while now but no delivery at all. Maybe artforz just got lazy sitting on his 60 000 or so BTC.

... till your pump and dump "I wanna get rich off the fools" scheme comes to an end and Luke attacks in the holy crusade against the alt chains.

wow, no one has solved a block on the devcoin network for almost an hour

Maybe Luke decided to own this ScamChain just like with CLC, IXC, I0C and all the other junk ?
