AMD Sapphire R9 290 - I can mine all coins fine, except x11/x11mod

[mistercoin]

I am having trouble with mining only the x11/x11mod algo on my r9 290. Every other coin/algo I can mine perfectly with no trouble (nist5, x14,x15,x13 etc) but the x11 is only giving me HW errors. Anyone else have this trouble, or have had this trouble and fixed it?

I am running on 14.7, and even rolled it back to 14.4 & 14.2 to no avail.

Any help would be appreciated

Anyone? I have looked everywhere and have not found any solution -.-

What are your X11 config settings at the moment?

They are:

Code:

sgminer.exe -k x11mod -o stratum+tcp://stratum-eu1.hashlink.eu:5031 --userpass username:x --thread-

concurrency 24550 -I 13 -w 256

Thanks!

hey mistercoin,

I have a number of r9 290s mining x11, maybe these settings can get you started:

Code:

"api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1",
"api-listen" : true,
"api-mcast-port" : "4028",
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "5",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin",
"log" : "1",
"queue" : "1",
"scan-time" : "7",
"shares" : "0",
"auto-fan" : true,
"gpu-threads" : "2,2",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-engine" : "1000,1000",
"gpu-fan" : "30-85,30-85",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-memclock" : "1500,1500",
"gpu-memdiff" : "0,0",
"gpu-powertune" : "20,20",
"gpu-vddc" : "0.000,0.000",
"intensity" : "19,19",
"kernel" : "x11mod,x11mod",
"temp-target" : "70,70",
"temp-overheat" : "85,85",
"temp-cutoff" : "95,95",
"temp-hysteresis" : "3",
"worksize" : "128,128",
"lookup-gap" : "2,2",
"shaders" : "2560,2560",
"thread-concurrency" : "20481,20481",
"xintensity" : "0,0",
"rawintensity" : "0,0",
"failover-switch-delay" : "60",
"no-pool-disable" : true,
"tcp-keepalive" : "30"
}

Make a .conf and try using some of the values above. I think I get around 4.7 MHps per card with this setup. I'm using an older version of sgminer with 14.4 drivers and a few files from 14.6.

Try moving/removing your old *.bin files prior to running with an updated conf. This will generate a new set of files and hopefully they will work better.

Try using no TC or switch over to shaders.
Try pasting 14.6 open cl files on the miner folder.
Make sure you have the correct miner.

Hey, thanks for taking the time to respond I will try these out and get back to you!

It should make no difference if it is a 7950 or 290.

i get 4.90mhs with sgminer 4.1.0 and this settings.

Code:

-k x11mod -I 18,18,16,16 -g 2 --shaders 2048 -w 128 --thread-concurrency 8192 --gpu-engine 1000,1000,800,800 --gpu-memclock 980,980,900,900 --auto-fan --temp-target 76

i know i was doing like 5.0-5.10 due to the heat i change my settings to lower it now that summers is getting away i cant manage to get it above 5    ...
