if someone could compile this and make a windows executable he would be a hero
Be a hero yourself: install and run Linux! :-) Seriously, I'll look into Windows support, but not for the next version. Maybe later. I got the solver to build on Windows now, only to find out the miner logic was written in Python...  You beat me to it  I didn't get it to mine yet, but the solver exe and msvc files are here: https://github.com/Genoil/silentarmy/tree/windows --edit-- there's an issue in the socket comms between the miner and the solvers. don't bother. nicehash has made all the work already. And it works far better then yours )) Only thing I miss is the -i parameter )) |

I get this on current version:
0:06:04][0x00003228] miner#5 | Starting thread #5 (CPU-XENONCAT-AVX2)
[10:06:04][0x00003274] miner#6 | Starting thread #6 (OCL_SILENTARMY) TODO
[10:06:04][0x000022c0] miner#7 | Starting thread #7 (OCL_SILENTARMY) TODO
[10:06:04][0x00002570] miner#8 | Starting thread #8 (OCL_SILENTARMY) TODO
[10:06:04][0x000033b4] miner#9 | Starting thread #9 (OCL_SILENTARMY) TODO
[10:06:04][0x000032dc] miner#10 | Starting thread #10 (OCL_SILENTARMY) TODO
you should download windows-silentarmy branch |

well, nicehash has integrated silent army in nheqminer.
Just compiled on windows. It works but also huge cpu usage and the half of the hash comparing to Genoil's.
Maybe it is due to my old amd app sdk (2.9-1, was not able to download 3.0 from amd site due to download errors in the middle) or the code needs some tuning ...
rednoW what is that silent army plz? thx It is an equihash solver, but it is not a miner - so this solver must be integrated to miner. Read more here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1666489.0 |

The exciting Cbuchner times are over long ago ,but leave djm34 alone , he makes the soft and he decides what to do with it! He has no obligation to anyone of us!
tpruvot? according to nicehash github he is helping with nheqminer now )) |

0.6 suffers from the very same stability issues. works nicely when I start it, come back after an hour an all cards are showing 0.0Sol/s.
Use the -f 2 option and a goto loop in the batch file. I also have a watchdog daemon to monitor power consumption of my rigs and restart them when the power consumption is too low. Works like a charm. I'm getting 35-40 sol/s stable with RX 480 and 0.6. tested 0.6 with -f 2 option. It works bad, returned to 0.5 with modded kernel and power shell script. |

23 sol/s on the 1060 3gb and 32 sol/s on the 1070 but more speed will be added when I have time.
. The biggest problem with the nicehashminer is all the bugs and the crashes. We need ccminer integration for speed and stability..
nicehash cuda miner is already doing 32 sol/s on the 1070. yes ... and 36 using palit oc capabilities )) |

Well, nanashi did the shuffle version, not trivial and almost 2x faster. Then I added another 20% over it :-D
Was this version ever published? )) |

In the early days some pools didn't have a duplicate checker, so if you sent the same solutions 10 times in a row you got credited and 10 times the payout.
I expect djm34's code to be the real thing. Look at his great work in the lyra2/lyra2v2 and neoscrypt kernels.
Modern lyra2/lyra2v2 cuda miners are courtesy of nanashi )) |

He just cannot make competitive miner now - that is all. All other is bullshit ))

After many hours of trying different settings in GPU-Tweak II, MSI AB, and WattMan, I finally figured out how to undervolt below 1V. I saw screen shots of GPU-Z showing people running at ~900mV, so I knew it was possible. The default VDDCI (memory controller voltage) in WattMan is 1V. In order to get the GPU voltage below 1V, I had to reduce the memory controller voltage as well.
Someone may have already pointed this out in one of the threads hear, but I couldn't find it.
With WattMan set to 900mV for VDDC and VDDCI, I'm seeing 887mV in GPU-Z, and total system 120V AC power consumption is 146W with a cheap 80+ bronze PSU. My hashrate is 26.1-26.3Mh with an Asus Rx 470 Strix clocked at 1025/1875(1.5Ghz strap).
you can keep default VDDCI (memory controller voltage) and use negative Voltage Offset to reduce gpu voltage below VDDCI )) |

Memory speed capability mostly determined not by gpu itself but the memory chips installed and its cooling. Asus afaik has no mem cooling so this combination - slow hynix plus bad design yields low stable mem speeds. I run 1950mem with 1375 strap on sapphire ref-like rx470 without mem errors in hwinfo64.

How about a pic showing more than 2 mins running time....
He could have lucked out and one out of the 4 cards is stable at 0.9V/1095Mhz. Most cards won't do that. Even 1.0V at that frequency is probably around a 50/50 chance. I have no much experience but both of my cards can do 1100@0.9v. Moreover my dragon 480 can do 1200@0.91 with low asic 60+. Sapphire ref 470 requires 0.92 to run at 1150. And for your words about Asus - this sapphire is dirt cheap and has nice vrm cooling. |

You have to manually fix checksum. Yey! Another win!
win 480 4GB Elpida -29mhs Show your hwinfo64 screen (gpu mem error rate) before claiming the win )) No error full stable 13 hour  Please, download hwinfo64 and run sensor only, then post the screen with memory error rate |

Seems that asus not so good. I have ref-like sapphire rx470 4gb hynix and it is doing 28mhs 1140/1950 at 0.92v
I'm using 1350 strap. No mem errors in hwinfo at all. Rock stable.
It can do 29.5mhs with 1140/2050 with 1500 strap but with mem errors, I don't like it.

What about GTX 1080 and 20 Mh\s on ETH ? What issue cause this weak hashrate ? Or it's ok for GTX 1080?
gddr5x suxxx - big latency |

This config will show high numbers on miner but after counting real shares you will be a bit disappointed )) check for memory errors in hwinfo64 ))

another reason?
2 sets of timings and Polaris Bios Editor don't like it )) Only going hex now )) Congrats  Again, Me like it very much! yup! You gonna gotta rich become very )) |
