Hmm, testing with a single Vega56.  Was getting ~2035 with 1.6.7, now getting ~1630 with 1.6.8.  Tried both the Normal and Maxi versions, same results.  Using the 18.6.1 drivers, so not sure what to make of this  Huh

Ok, figured out my issue.  I had intensity: 0 in the config, and specified a GPU-specific intensity (112).  Once I removed the gpu_conf section, it worked perfectly.  Don't know if this is a bug or a change in how inheritance works in the config files.

when you set intensity to 0, miner sets worksize, number of threads and intensity automatically

Yup, I knew that, but thought the gpu_conf section overwrote the global settings outside the gpu_conf section.

it should overwrite. maybe it really is a bug Smiley

WOWnero(CryptoNight V2), so CryptoNight V8 is CryptoNight V2?

yes lol

is it important worksize in config ?

i tried 8 and 16 and 12
i think no any effect. any idea ?

it is important.
Which algo?
Which gpu?

stellitev4

RX550 2GB
RX470 4GB
RX570 4GB

it will be wonderful if you write worksize values for the different graphic cards in readme.txt

There is a rough template on the first page for some cards and algos

Also a google document maintained by users, where one can see tips for settings on various cards and algos :

OK, so after testing with 18.3.4 and V8 here is the conclusion :

Don't use 18.3.4 if you want to mine V8!

It's something in the V8 code that driver doesn't like, and probably not something i can fix.
I will put this info on the first page.
1146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.6.8 - V8 & algo switching on: October 09, 2018, 11:23:10 AM

i know how to set intensity and threads.
i need to know only worksize. I always set 8 to worksize.

I have a farm with 35 rigs: RX550 2GB, RX470 4GB and RX570 4GB

These are my conclusions from lot of testings i made :

Rx550 is always 8 or 12 for 'old' algos, V8 is 16, that you have to test because again (and it is interesting), some say they get better results with 8, but others with the same card say they get better results with 12.
Rx470 and Rx570 is always 8 for 'old' algos, V8 is 16.

I can't  because with the same card something that works for Joe, does not mean it will work for you.
You cards maybe cant handle the intensity Joe's cards can.

For me too. I have a Rig with 6x RX550 4G. I mine Monero (CN V7) with 34 Intensity. 8 or 12 worksize change nothing in hashrate. I get arround 2900 hahes with this config.

550 4g should be ok on V7 with : 27/12/2
550 4g should be ok on V8 with : 28/16/2

higher intensity doesnt mean more hash always

Hi doktor83
Starting with version 1.6.5, on the normalv7 algorithm for R7 370 uses kernel 2 and give me 360h/s
On version 1.6,4 and earlier, these cards work on kernel 1 and give me 440h/s
What to do when the algorithm changes to normalv8 ?


you can give me access to a machine you have that card installed in, and i can try to rework kernel1 to work with R7 too

It looks like the 18.3.4 drivers dont like my implementaion of V8 with the default worksize of 16 - tested on Vega56.
This is why some of you get those 500-600-700hs speeds probably.
On 18.6.1 it is OK, i will also test 18.5.1 , 18.5.2

EDIT:

From 18.5.1 is OK.
I will check why on 18.3.4 isn't but it is not high priority.

Ok, so checked on 18.3.4 and it looks like its not my V8 implementation that is the problem, but something else.


Anyone out there can try 1.6.8 with Vega56 or 64 on Blockchain drivers?
1152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.6.8 - V8 & algo switching on: October 09, 2018, 05:23:26 AM
Could anyone help me,when i start the miner with my r9 290 i get the following error:

[2018-10-09 14:48:01] Error CL_LINK_PROGRAM_FAILURE when calling clLinkProgram [ctx->Program] for DeviceID 0 (Thread 0)
[2018-10-09 14:48:01] Error CL_INVALID_PROGRAM when calling clGetProgramBuildInfo for length of build log output for DeviceID 0 (Thread 0)

On top where you have something like : GPU0: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][Intensity 56.0][W: 8][T: 2][K: 1][BUS: 2]

What do you have, [K: 1] or [K: 2] ?

Also driver version?
1153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.6.8 - V8 & algo switching on: October 09, 2018, 04:30:01 AM
Nice Dok! Can confirm ~2035 H/s for a V64 on V8. ~2135 H/s on current V7. V8 Only works using your pre-compiled kernels though. Running 18.6.1 drivers which are recommended, strange that they can't compile for V8. Just wanted to pass the info along, thx for all your wonderful work, best CN miner in my book by a long shot!

Do you get an error when trying to compile, or ?
1154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.6.8 - V8 & algo switching on: October 09, 2018, 04:28:39 AM
What intensity/worksize/threads combo are you recommending on RX 570's 4GB for the new v8?

try 57/16/2
1155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.6.8 - V8 & algo switching on: October 08, 2018, 06:09:09 PM

i think i found something about the 570/580 8g cards and heavy algos. Going to check out a few more things then re-upload 1.6.8 with the fixes.

check new version/ same trouble ((
also check without precompile binaries. same low rate 900-930 not 1000+ as on 1.6.7
possible need other drivers? use 18.3.4

Driver should be fine, but you could try 18.6.1.

I have a mixed rig 570/580 8G and this is the result now, everything left on auto (intensity 0)

V.1.6.8 is again up on Mega! Sorry for any inconvenience!

Downloaded again and tested Maxi version with driver 18.3.4 and 2 Vega 56 Reference card, one Vega 64 Asus Strix and one Rx 570 GB.

Vega problem is still here. Low performance about 4100 H/s for cards (on V7 is 7070 H/s with same settings).

That is from benchmark test 60 sec, but problem is there.

what if you forget all that strange config and comment out the gpu_conf part?

I don't understand you Doctor? That GPU_conf part is rock solid in V7 algorithm for 7 days with 7070 H/s.
Same settings in SrbMiner and overdrive settings in V8 results with 4100 H/s in benchmark mode.
Do you need some more specific test, i can test it?

yes , rock solid in v7, but the settings for v8 are not same as for v7. V8 for example is good with worksize 16 and 32, and bad with 8. Why do you guys think the same settings need to be, when this is a different algo?

vega 56 120/16/2 , vega 64 124/16/2 is optimal

nice test. try Worksize 8
my vega64LE have better HR with 8 worksize

V8 is not good with worksize 8 on any card.
1160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.6.8 - V8 & algo switching on: October 08, 2018, 03:16:55 PM

so what is the conclusion at the end?
1.6.8 hashing better on rx550 and rx560 cards ?

also where did you get intensity 30 from?
You are really confusing me here i don;t know even what algo are we talking about now.

550 4g should be ok on V7 with : 27/12/2
560 4g should be ok on V7 with : 27/8/2

550 4g should be ok on V8 with : 28/16/2
560 4g should be ok on V8 with : 29/32/2


true.
but have trouble on cn-heavy with rx470\480\570\580 8gb card. plz check my config
   { "id" : 1, "intensity" : 58, "double_threads" : true},
on 1.6.7 ok and rate 1060
 GPU1 :    1027 H/s [T: 67c, RPM: 1465, CC: 1150 MHz, MC: 2030 MHz][BUS:2]
on 1.6.8 low rate
GPU1 :    875 H/s [T: 63c, RPM: 945, CC: 1150 MHz, MC: 2030 MHz][BUS:2]



i think i found something about the 570/580 8g cards and heavy algos. Going to check out a few more things then re-upload 1.6.8 with the fixes.
