61  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How much of mining hashrates for GTX 1660Ti? on: March 23, 2019, 10:44:01 PM
29.6 MH/s ETH at best, did test a lot of other algorithms as well but it performed about same as an GTX 1070, a little less wattage 10-15 W.

Not worth it for mining. Why not buy RX 5x0 or GTX 10x0 card for much cheaper price?

Why am I getting a lot of rejected shares? "Pool rejected result 0x000074E1 for job[2] [low difficulty share]" By a lot I mean some, most shares are ofcourse accepted but still, quite frequent.

Pool difficulty is set at 120000 by default. May I change it for better results?

The pool I'm using is nanopool.org btw.


You get low diff shares when your gpu returns a bad result. So loosen on your OC , or depending of your card, maybe you use 'bad' mem. straps.

Is there any way to see what GPU that is getting this error, if it's just one or all GPUs? I can see how many errors and frequency in %. It just says what job number it is?

95,5% accepted shares. Maybe not much to care about in about one hour?

Any plans to support Vega VII? I get this error message when trying to use Lyra2Rev3 algo:

[2019-03-23 14:54:35] Initialize error, unknown device name: 'gfx907'
[2019-03-23 14:54:35] Failed to initialize device idx 4 (-8)


Seems we might be missing the device name for VII when HBCC is enabled.  We'll add it in the next release.
For the time being, if you disable HBCC on your VII it should work.

Thanks for the help about that.

I can't get my vega vii to work with my nvidia cards 2080 rtx.

When i added the vega vii it initially detected the unkown hardware,  I flashed the bios with v106 x64,  Then i installed the latest drivers adrenaline 19.3.2 march 14th.

My device manager finally read it as vega vii but had this symbol "!" ,  So i thought it just needed a reboot,  I rebooted it and now i can't get anything to load up,  Not even my motherboard settings.   The screen shows a large underscore "_"  on the boot screen   .  And just stays stuck there and does not load windows or anything.

Any ideas on what I should try? Thanks


I would say that You made mistake swapping sequence of two steps: driver install and flash.
You should change positions of Your cards to boot system with RTX and flash again Vega with Your original VBIOS (You did backup, don't You?).
Than You can try flashing with new VBIOS (if it is proper one for Your manufacturer/model).

I didn't do a backup. I'm an amd noob. Looks like I bricked my Vega vii on day 1 Sad  .  

So i unplugged the riser on the amd radeon so i can get back into windows.   Replugged the riser back in hoping the hardware will get detected.  Unfortunetly it does not detect.  I tried to reinstall amd drivers and it can't detect hardware anymore probably b/c I ran that bios v106 x64 before installing drivers.  It won't allow me to install drivers unless it detects hardware.

What should i do next? return the card back to amazon? RMA it?  This sucks now I know why I always stayed loyal to team green.

Why did you flash another BIOS onto the card if I may ask? I was running RTX 2080 Ti + Vega VII in the same computer for a while, but I put my VII in my dedicated mining rig after a while. No issues at all running them together.

I think you can get original BIOS from your vendor as well. What vendor do you have? Maybe I can get you an original BIOS, I have Sapphire one.

I have an MSI vega vii.

To answer your question Why did I flash another bios onto the card?  

I was not aware I was flashing another bios.  I thought i was upgrading the bios by using the official amd bios updater, I felt like this was the best way to go,  Even the msi says its using the offical amd bios version.   So i double clicked v106 from the official amd website and bricked my card and become no longer detectable by bootup or windows,  Before i flashed it was detectable as unknown graphics hardware in windows. Now after flashing to v106 windows device manager just shows nothing or blank like the hardware does not exist.



On the msi website for vega vii it states that its just using the official amd bios version. v105

After I installed v106 my card can no longer be detected at bootup pci slot screen and no longer detected in the device manager.

Since it can not be detected the hardware it won't allow me to install drivers or update the bios.  Drivers say Error 173 amd graphics hardware not found.  Also the flasher doesn't do anything v105, v106 since it can't find hardware.

I tried atikmdag-patcher 1.4.6 and it says failed to locate driver file.


Any last tips before I return this back to amazon on monday? I have a biostar b250+ motherboard if that matters.



Okey that's not good. Maybe if you have another card you can fix it, but I doubt you have one spare Smiley

To everyone that have Vega's: No need to mess with BIOSes on Vega 56/64 OR Vega VII, just leave it.

To be clear, there was a thing where you could flash the 56 with a 64 bios, which peeps claimed gave better clocks but lower power. But most of that was achievable without the risk.

Is anybody mining with a vii at the moment, and what power vs hashrates are you getting? Is it more efficient than simply running two 56s?



Yes I flashed my two Vega 56's to 64 as well. But now you don't need to do that because you just play with power tables.

Well because I want efficency, my VII is hashing 2600 ~ 200 W, so sure it's more efficient than two 56s, but at much higher cost.

Any planned support for C31 mean mining on AMD cards? Have polaris pro duos, Vega FEs, and Radeon VII's that would fit the bill in terms of mem size.

Yes I would like to see that, too.

Any plans when optimization is done for the Radeon VII? TRM 0.4.2 works fine mining CNR but I think it will perform slighly better. I'm getting 2475 H/s @ 200 W from the wall.

Any plans for implement Grin31 Cuckatoo for 16 GB AMD cards like Radeon VII and Sapphire RX 580 16 GB? I think atleast the first will do quite nice at this algorithm..
73  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Who ordered the AMD Radeon VII? Lets make a list of Miners / Hashrates / Coins on: March 15, 2019, 10:37:11 PM
Anyone knows a Grin31 (Cuckatoo) miner for Radeon VII? I think it will be quite good at it because 16 GB VRAM.
74  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What coin should i mine on GTX 1060 3GB on: March 02, 2019, 11:37:27 AM
Ravencoin and Zhash like Bitcoin Gold/SnowGEm etc.
75  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Are Mining Still Profit? on: February 27, 2019, 09:22:09 AM
Yeah, I do only pay $0.03/kwh though.
I'm actually thinking of starting a small miner hosting service once I manage to free up some time and interest in mining rises up a bit since $0.01 /kwh electricity isn't too hard to get here.
That being said roi is pretty slow.

Where do you live?
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GTX 1660 TI hashrates ?? on: February 22, 2019, 10:55:40 PM
Not much. But as with the 3 GB and 4 GB cards, it may come faster. It also depends on what you mine. Most algorithms - no.

Hi, any plans for adding Equihash 144.5 (Zhash) to your miner? All the other miners just sucks.. Smiley

Btw, anyone knows why most AMD miners just plain sucks to compete with Nvidia miners? I mean in games, AMD cards are quite good. Like a RX 580 is faster in most games than a GTX 1060. But at mining it can't compete at all. Is it much harder to code Open Cl?
78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GTX 1660 hashrates ?? on: February 22, 2019, 03:39:34 PM
Yes they are needed badly Smiley But I think they are around 1070 hashrates? But with slightly lower power usage.
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: **WARNING** New Nicehash Legacy on: February 18, 2019, 02:12:38 PM
Like adaseb said above. It's more than it benchmarking a lot of different algorithms and your GPUs are too heavy overclocked/underclocked on some. Best is to use like only a slightly overclock and run NiceHash benchmark, then it should be fine, if you havn't alter the memory strips on AMD cards too aggressive as well.

Seems strange that your GPUs dissapeared. Maybe it just hang? And requied a hard reboot (power off/on)?
80  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What are you guys mining with your AMD cards? on: February 12, 2019, 03:35:42 PM
I have 24 rx580 (like you i'm a little desperate).

It is winter here so i use 12 of them for Heat mining Zcoin.

After that i will turn them off and try to sell them but that's not easy prices are really low now and the true buyers (gamers) don't want this cards Sad

Bad time for us my friend Sad

It's quite sad. RX 570/580 are great for gaming actually. But most of the gamers just want Nvidia.
