Genoil's ZEC miner: AMD ZCash miner for Windows - 0.6

[toptek]

Im using my 7950 shappire rig of 6 gpus getting a media of 16 hashes per gpu. is this good for this type of gpu??
Is there any ways of use 99% of my gpu usage, im stuck at around 85%?

Thanks for the help if u could.  

If the GPU is sat between 80~85% as your graph shows it suggests that they're memory bandwidth/latency limited. Most 7950/7970 will happily do atleast 1500MHz, start there. Failing that you probably want to use a custom BIOS with tighter timings, usually copying a memory strap from 1250/1375 to 1500 does the trick. When I used to have 7950s I was using tighter timings(The Stilt's) and memory clock was around 1700MHz. This provided excellent performance for scrypt and Eth type crypto.

Kind of slow mine does 20-25 sol/s with genoils miner 0.4.2 on stock settings

Thanks for this.  I have a folder setup with this for each of my gpus. 280x x 5.  After driver crashes for that paticular gpu genoil won't mine.  Not your fault in know but is there a way to auto fix the driver issue so genoil will mine?  After driver crashes it only mines 0sols

I'm tyring that putting each Gpu in it own folder and useing the -g cammnd to start each one by it self i have one going dead for no reason in my three card rig it either the pool or the miner sense it's not all ways the same GPU that's drops  to zero ,

Is their any way to set -k zec for different cards some with and some without? Would like to know how this can be done as using on 480s works a treat however 390s I need to try but also in rig is a 280 and it dont like em lol.

make 2 .bats , with different -g params according to your setup , like -g 3 4 5 -k zec zec , and second with -g 0 1 2 -k zec

whats is -g ? mayeb you mean -P ?

anyone came across mining speed affected by pcie extension cable?

I just added a asus 7970 to my desktop, I have to use the extension cable to allow the card run outside my case
Asus card doesn't like to work on the pcie-usb 3.0 solution, I have to use a 1x - 16x cable.

I feel that's not long enough so I added another 1x - 1x and connect to the 1x on mobo.

with this config, no matter what I do, the mining speed will be 0.6 - 4.x S/s
so I removed the 1x - 1x and just use the 1x - 16x cable, it back to 20-26 S/s, interesting.


BTW, with a OC AMD Sempron 145 OC to 3.5G, all my 7950/7970 on that rig are doing 20ish S/s, so I guess don't need a fx6300 for now

it's gpu number which you'd like to use

 Thx for the info. Also do you know if using -k zec on 390s work good as I tried to before but think but too many zec on line lol

Is it normal that R9 390 is around 20-25 sol and R9 280X card is the same? It seems that all depends from processor..
R9 280X with i5 is 35 sol and R9 390 with Celeron G1840 is 22 sol.

I have ~20sol/s on R-370, the same as R-380 with FX4300 CPU (usage-8%).
In second rig, all R-380`s has also ~20sol/s with Athlon X2-280 (usage-25%).

Miner on Flypool didnt working.
Either going from 30 sol to 0 sol mining during an hour or a couple of hours.
Either turning off.


How to set miner to restart himselff if sols dropped?

Genoil, why -oi option is deleted?
I have my integrated graphic device as platform 0, so ?I should set gpu's as 1.. and I don't know that befor I accidentaly open old version with -oi option and find out what I write at begining of my post..

For me it shows 20-25sols @gigabyte 370 2g
and 28-30 @ saphire rx480 8g
Why RX is so weak?

You can auto restart the miner every 5min uisng this scrip

:restart
start  genoil.exe -c eu1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1N32yBJi27zyAgZLvWjsCFVyHLr4s23NHz.RIGGPU -p z -i 20 -w 64 -P 0
TIMEOUT /T 300
taskkill /f /im genoil.exe
TIMEOUT /T 5
goto restart
pause

But the truth is it does not help as the miner sometimes get the error in the first 1min or sometimes longer.

We will just have to wait for genoil to get his miner stable.

well, my results: 370X 25/s and 290x 35/s cpu 4790k.

[adamvp]

What does it stands for:

Code:

--krnl,-k kernelname  	  set kernel(s)            -k zec

and where can I find how to set -w and -i ?
And is there any build-in miner autorestart or so?

[Ambros]

For me it shows 20-25sols @gigabyte 370 2g
and 28-30 @ saphire rx480 8g
Why RX is so weak?

+1, stuck at less than 30 with both 470 and 480

My friend has up to 40sols but it is still relatively small...

How do you achieved 25 sol on 370? I have  msi 370 4g and i have 16 sol. What settings do you have and miner?
