Genesis Mining Presents: SGMiner-GM - now with Zawawa's GG! [Updated 17/01/2017]

[Ursul0]

Im trying to use sgminer ethash with mixed gpus on win 10 pro and sgminer only builds a bin for Hawaii I tried to start sgminer by choosing my Tahiti or 270 and it still doesn't build a bin for them  

the only solution I've figured is two instances with enumerated devices in each config.

edit: if I recall correctly....

Anyone manage to get sgminer-gm v5.5.5 Linux to work on XMR mining at stratum+tcp://cryptonight.hk.nicehash.com:3355 ?

I am getting rejects, is this normal? Any extra settings required?

YOU NEED TO USE NICEHASH'S MODIFIED VERSION--

NiceHash modified SGminer-GM and released v5.5.5-4 on their own GitHub repo.  The version at the Genesis Mining repo is not NiceHash compatible; I asked about it a page or so back.  NiceHash posted the link in this thread, also.

Now, I haven't tried the Hong Kong server, but the NiceHash v5.5.5-4 has been very stable on the USA server.  It has run almost two weeks without a problem on my 6-card GTX 460 (4GB) rig.        

Here is the link to the NiceHash post:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1612329.msg17585443#msg17585443       --scryptr

EDIT:  How many rejects are you getting?  I do get a small percentage of rejects for stale shares.  However, when I tried to use Genesis Mining's v5.5.5, I got 100% rejects on NiceHash's Cryptonight server.       --scryptr

EDIT:  Please note that I am editing this post in September 2017!

I am now using NiceHash v5.5.5-8 of SGminer-GM, and have been for months.  CryptoNight algo is currently the top earner on WhatToMine, and my rigs are mining away on NiceHash.  TO SOLVE THE STALE SHARE PROBLEM: Be sure to include the " "no-submit-stale": true, " line in your configuration. Skip the extra, outside quote marks of course, they were used only for English grammar concerns.

My rigs run at less than half the wattage mining CryptoNight that the same rigs require when mining Equihash.       --scryptr

Thanks for the suggestion Im going to try it but a few post above said eth trouble mining with 16.6 drivers and this stupid win 10 pro keeps updating to 16.6 as soon as i plug the internet back in I have disabled it not to but it still does Im thinking of going back to win 7 I never had any of these problems Thank You

I cannot for the life of me get the nicehash version working on linux. The app launches and it is running, but nothing is being submitted...

I get 100% rejects with v5.5.5 Linux.

Will try the v5.5.5-4 !

1) set proper update policies in gpegit.msc
2) from elevated prompt run: "gpupdate /force"

Gave up..... sgminer-gm v5.5.5-4 still gives me rejects mining on XMR Nicehash.
Settings: -ri 1024 -w 8 -g 1 , and also tried 512 -w 4 -g 2, both giving rejects
Tried HK and USA nodes also getting rejects

[scryptr]

LOWER THE INTENSITY--

Try using "-ri 1008".  That  is my setting with stock clocks and BIOS.       --scryptr

[batko]

best setting for R9 380x -rawintensity 512-w 4 -g 2 - 720Hs(costum timings) with OC about 750Hs,
 but my R9 280x only 640hs with same settings best settings for 280x?

[ntrader]

Which drivers and gpu/memory clocks?

[batko]

16.9.2 driver win 7 64 R9 380X NITRO 1040/1625 about 720Hs with costum bios timings.
R9 280x same drivier & OS

[ntrader]

eliovp bios?

[batko]

No, No, I do not have Evilop bios, this is my bios with costum timings

I am getting the following error mining ETH with an AMD RX480 - Windows 7 64:

Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

 but my R9 280x only 640hs with same settings best settings for 280x?

THE AUTHORS OF THIS SOFTWARE SUGGEST USING LESS THAN MAXIMUM RAW INTENSITY--

That is why I use the Raw Intensity value of "1008", with 1 GPU thread.       --scryptr

I have better results on R280x with 484, 8, 2 than with 512,4,2. From the other side, 640 is respectable number for me, but I have huge underclock and downvolt.

Hi

Im haunted with some errors on one of my rigs.

It runs fine on pure r9 380 rigs.
But on the mix 380/390 rig im getting:

Building binary cryptonightHawaiigw8l4.bin
Error -11: Building Program (clBuildProgram)
C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\\OCL2732T5.cl:4:10: fatal error: 'wolf-aes.cl' file not found
#include "wolf-aes.cl"
error: Clang front-end compilation failed!
Frontend phase failed compilation.
Error: Compiling CL to IR
Failed to init GPU thread 0, disabling device 0

So if i add these files to the directory in that path: blake256.cl cryptonight.cl groestl256.cl wolf-aes.cl wolf-skein.cl and jh.cl  (the ones it asks for)
i get

Initialising kernel cryptonight.cl with nfactor 10, n 1024

Any ideas?

I have very similar problems and would appreciate any insight.

Yes, I use Claymore 9.7 for XMR quite successfully.
