Tell me, what makes setting zec zec zek?
This will cause 3 instances of the miner to run on each card, which can help improve hash rates when the cards are under-utilized. It will only work on cards with more than 4GB of VRAM. Basically with a 2GB card, you can run one instance (no -k flags) With a 4GB card, you can run 2 instances (-k zec zec) With an 8GB card, you can run up to 4 instances (-k zec zec zec zec) Each extra instance will have diminishing returns and possibly cause more instability.

no offense intended but it may not help , but it has to be 4gb cards like he said . try it and see. it didn't help with my 470 it slowed them down but mine all ready do 31 steady if the miner stays stable.
cool i used two not three after using 2 i didn't brother with it, it didn't help.I didn't know ..
thanks for clearing that up !!! not being a smart ass ...

No, it has to be more than 4GB to use 3 instances (-k zec zec zec). Since 6GB AMD cards don't exist as far as I know, it requires an 8GB card.

-k zec zec zek not on that one . or like this -k zec zec zec warning thu it's gear related if your gear can't handle that many silent army kernels at once it will crash to the point you have to turn off the rig . It's not only a questions of gear, it must be something with the software environment. My RX 460 4GB runs v.06 zec zec flawlessly, no crashes, nothing But none of my eight RX 480 4GB can run zec zec, they all crash. All GPUs are running on win 10 x64 AMD driver 16.9.1 Go figure... ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

Wow I am really impressed with this new 0.6 miner. I have 3 batch files now. 1 batch files launches two others. Start.bat start cmd /k call start1.bat start cmd /k call start2.bat start1.bat (runs my RX 480) @echo on taskkill /f /im genoil.exe timeout /t 1 genoil.exe -c zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -u name.miner1 -p password1 -P 0 -f 0 -g 1 -k zec zec zec zec start2.bat (runs my R9 280x and 380x) @echo off set GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 set GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 set GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
@echo on taskkill /f /im genoil.exe timeout /t 1 genoil.exe -c zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -u name.miner2 -p password2 -P 0 -f 0 -g 0 2 This boosted my has rate up quite a bit but one problem with this miner is my 280x card will stop mining and the -f 0 is not restarting it. I like it! I am running "z -i 20 -w 64 -P 0 -k zec zec zec zec pause" on my 480s and it seems to restart but without the -f on it's own but the wierd thing is that I am tagged with a 0.05 thing when I launch the miner then when it does lose the threads the hash drops from my 100 h/s down to the 0.05. Super odd. still trying to figure that out but I am getting about 70-100h/s on 2x 480's when it is running (runs for 6 hours at a time). Mind if I ask what speeds you see on your 480? I tried yours but get stuck around 36h/s. edit* driver is 16.9.2 thanks man it did work for me as you can see...... https://postimg.org/image/8r7zlnh99/

all i can think of then is it my modded bios if i flip it to normal mode it only does 22 to 25 with the beefed up bios i was using for eth it goes up a bit . I know others say don't use it but it's the miner, it is to unstable right now i was having the exact same issue modded or not . when it's finally fixed and I'm still haveing issue from it then i'll revert back, I 'm sure i won't need to.
on fly pool now
188.3H/s for the next few hours it will stay there then for what ever reason it starts carping out .

Hashrates using the silentarmy v2 kernel: R9 Fury X @1050/500 - 35-40 Sol/s R9 290 & 390 @ 1060/1500 - 32-34 Sol/s R9 280x @ 957/1200 - 28-32 Sol/s Overall I'm really happy with the performance, but fixing the stability so it doesn't crash every time would make it even better ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I have 5x 280x cards. When you say 957/1200, does that mean Core/Mem? Have you modified your actual rom file to those numbers and then flashed your bios with ATI flash or does 957/1200 mean something different and something you can set in windows? If it is something different, can you tell me how to set those numbers? I want to try your settings on my 280x cards. Thanks! The card is underclocked. using afterburner. Thanks. I am using afterburner for the 957/1200 on the 280x and I max at about 21 Sol/s. Are you doing -w or -i in your command line? Anything that I might have missed? Thanks again.

I use the -k zec zec zec zec so that it loads 4 threads per 8gb card which it can hold and it seems stable with worker loads up to 128. I love the 480 reference cards. And again I am on 16.9.2. Just switched it up a bit and got a 110h/s peak that was neat with the following batch from an earlier post from mohnori: title 480 :start setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 genoil.exe -c zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -u xxxxxx.xxxxxx -p xxxxx z -i 20 -w 64 -P 1 -g 0 1 -k zec zec zec zec pause -f 2 cls timeout /T 10 goto start

On launch day this was possible with a 480 farm and properly configured genoil except the accounts balances got wiped out on suprnova so the real winner is whoever has all that.

I would stick with convention and name both instances 'zec' to avoid confusion with the pause command that you would normally put at the end of a batch file. Also what is the 'z' after the password? -P 0 is the default so unless you're having problems leave that out. If you do need it you probably need -P 1. If you are using a looping batch file that restarts on a crash you will want the '-f 2' flag. Try this instead: cd c:\zcash (or wherever your genoil.exe is located) :restart genoil.exe -c xxxx:xxxx -u xxxx.xxxx -p xxxx -i 20 -w 64 -g 0 1 2 -f 2 -k zec zec TIMEOUT /T 10 goto restart pause
