Any Plans for this to get updated?
I really has remarkable speeds, it would be nice if GPU overclocking functions would work and the right data for each gpu would be displayed.
well... that would be nice, but I don't see it happening... probably the new AMD API makes it even less likely. also the real thing here is the kernels, which are well optimized for a public miner. I'm still using SGM for XMR, while doing cards config in overdriven tool.

Hello
I have two "old" 7850 2GB cards + laptop which I want to mine XMR with. Ppl said they had better hashrate with SGminer than Claymore but for me this is not the case and I am thinking I might be doing something wrong.
I tried XMR-Stak too and used those values for SGminer.
7850: 16 CU, 1024 GCN cores. 2GB ram. XMR-Stak say memory is 1216 and sets intensity to 512. Claymore to sets intensity to 512 and gets about 410H/s per card where SGMiner gives about 350 7590m: 5 CU, 384 GCN cores. 2GB ram. XMR-stak say memory is 1395 and sets intensity to 680. Claymore sets intensity to 160 and gets 80-90H/s where SGMiner gives 60.
Why is'nt the full 2GB available? I understand if some headroom is needed from the 2GB so 1024 intensity would'nt be possible but still...
What would the optimal settings for these cards and SGminer be?
Another general question: Could this miner be changed for OpenCl 1.2 so Intel and older AMD CPUs could run it. (are there some major differences in openCl 2 and 1.2?)

Hi,
due to the tipps and hints i found here i'd like to share my results and settings:
Mining XMR at Nanopool
Rig one:
2 * R9 270 2G (sapphire) ri:340 ws:4 gt:2 345 H/s each 1 * HD 7850 2G (XFX) ri:256 ws:4 gt:2 320 H/s ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rig total 1010 H/s ---- with Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v10.2 ------------------------- Rig total 1230 H/s
Rig two:
4 * HD 7850 2G ( HIS ICEQ X) ri:256 ws:4 gt:2 330 H/s each ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rig total 1320 H/s ---- with Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v10.2 -------------------------- Rig total 1625 H/s
Rig three:
6 * HD 7790 1G (HIS/ASUS/XFX) ri:192 ws:4 gt:2 204 H/s each ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rig total 1230 H/s ---- with Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v9.7 ------------------------- Rig total 1200 H/s
---------------------> All rigs : 3560 H/s ---------------------> Power at the wall: 1240 watt ---------with-------> All rigs : 4050 H/s ----- claymore-----> Power at the wall: 1215 watt
Have a nice day
Well you are loosing 50-70H/s per card compared to Claymore...

WOLF0 HAS LEFT THE PROJECT-- I am flattered to be mentioned as if I was a primary in the coding of SGminer-GM. But, mostly I have been posting advice already given by the code authors. I will try an analogy of my own here, though. If circuit boards are like "electrical plumbing", older boards do not have the piping to process the electrical flow as efficiently as newer boards. The result is a slower computing process. No amount of software will completely make up for the physical limitations of the older circuits. I like SGminer-GM a lot, and my R9 and R7 cards do well with it. I have nothing older to test. Smaller values for work size, threads, and Raw Intensity may help. And, cruel as it may seem, eBay may help earn you credit for newer GPUs. Good Luck! --scryptr

Well the R7 265 is a rebranded 7850 and the R7 270 a rebranded 7870. Cryptonight is about two things. 1. Reading and writing to 2MB memorychunk very fast. 2. Doing AES very fast. That's why I like cryptonight: it runs well on cpus. My Ryzen 7 do about 700H/s on 8 threads compared to the massive amount of cores running parallel on a GPU for instance.

NICEHASH HAS RELEASED UPDATES--
The latest update is SGminer-GM-5.5.5-8, modified to work on the NiceHash pool. My finicky RX 460 cards run smoothly on it, as do my RX 470 cards. Here is my configuration file:
<=======CUT LINE=======>
{ "pools": [{ "url": "cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355", "user": "YOURBTCADDRESS.WORKER", "pass": "x" }, { "url": "cryptonight.eu.nicehash.com:3355", "user": "YOURBTCADDRESS.WORKER", "pass": "x" }], "profiles": [{ "worksize": "8", "name": "xmr", "algorithm": "cryptonight", "gpu-threads": "1", "rawintensity": "1016" }], "default-profile": "xmr", "no-extranonce": false, "no-submit-stale": true, "api-listen": true, "api-port": 4028, "api-mcast-port": 4028, "api-allow": "W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.1.1/24", "temp-cutoff": "85", "temp-overheat": "80" }
Thanks your settings were helpful in getting my RX480s running well =)

I just tried something quick for the laptop and i=160 (the value claymore use) w=4 and gpu-theads=3 gave me +80H/s.

Thanks your settings were helpful in getting my RX480s running well =) I suppose my only "issue" is that I simply can't seem to get past 600 H/S on my RX480 cards... I have tried the XMR-STAK program as well as SGMINER with the same config as yours. SGMINER is running cooler, though, and my fans aren't as loud.

Hello! Ethpool and ethermine, and probably others, show the miner's reported hashrate. sgminer does not send this value to the pools, so it's always 0 or blank. How to fix it?

This thread is looking pretty dead, but in case people are still following it, I'm wondering if anyone has been using this with AMDGPU-pro 17.40/Ubuntu? I was running 5.5.5-gm-a with a couple Polaris cards, and ran into problems after upgrading to AMDGPU-pro 17.40. High HW errors, no shares found (WU:0). I had been successfully using threads: 2 and xi: 1155, but dropped back to 1 thread and xi 512, but still no luck. My genoil fork (ethminer-nr) and Claymore 10 both work fine.

The thread is pretty dead and the miner is no longer updated but I still prefer SGminer-GM over Claymore's Cryptonote miner even though Claymore keeps his miner updated.

I am using sgminer 5.5.5 under EthOS with 8 x RX570 4GB and I was wondering if I should play with the rawintensity and worksize settings or just leave them by default? I am mining ETH only.
Thanks.

I figured out that the new driver generates different GCN code. It looks like it's now using the HSA/ROCm llvm compiler. Kernel binaries built with the old compiler still work. The new driver also allows using the legacy OpenCL compiler.

Hi all!
I am struggling to get the API working. I seem to have tried everything but I can't get it working, whether it's with Awesome Miner or directly in the browser. I am under EthOS using the following parameter :
sgminer-gm=flags -k ethash-new --api-listen --api-allow "W:0/0" --api-port 4028
I also tried with --api-allow "W:127.0.0.1" with and without the ""
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Come back when you're running your own Ubuntu install. EthOS is a rip-off piece of shit.
