Gateless Gate Sharp 1.3.8: 30Mh/s (Ethash) on RX 480!

[treanski]

Your videocard is not supported. It's too weak to mine.

Can't I mine with CPU with this software?

no

If  you changed the timing strips / memory overclock/gpu undervolt for Etash ethereum, they do have problem with Neoscrypt and lower speed with  cryptonight..
I put some of the original strips back, few tweaks on UV and OC  and for now, cryptonight is working... the way that I like with less than 70w/card Speed 900, low temperature

@zazawa

i would like to request another feature. would it be much work to make it possible to mine same algo on 2 different pools and set how many hashpower send to each pool? would make things easier to mine different coins.
like with sgminer and "quota" command

example sgminer config 2 pools 50%/50% hashpower

{
  "pools": [
    {
      "name": "coin1",
      "quota": "50;pool1 url",
      "user": "Ks5mEA8C75yPVgZ7di2SZT7tpjZM3vewUbJEgvWGTxVWZAuCUeKvHbQEYcLirvLxZ4gAxfZSvE6SSAK tRaR7cNTWAReWiJo.45000",
      "pass": "x",
      "no-extranonce": true,
      "profile": "xmr"
    },
{
      "name": "coin2",
      "quota": "50;pool2 url",
      "user": "i",
      "pass": "x",
      "no-extranonce": true,
      "profile": "xmr"
    }

I don't understand why GGS every start mining saves settings. It's no changes in them...
And it's still exists bug with reconnect when custom pool server didn't connected from 1st time. Recoonection didn't work:

Ah, that’s because the messages of exceptions on your system is not in English.
I will fix it soon.

I spent the whole day experimenting with memory timing mods for Ethash and now I’m getting closer to 28 Mh/s with a stock RX 480. Not so bad, methinks.

What about stock RX 580? And with what size and memory type 480 you tried?

And settings start to save after any changings in GGS even if that settings returns back. F.e. after starting GGS I change 2nd chart from Shares to Speed and back to enable coloring of GPUs. And now GGS wants to save config, but settings are not changed at all.
It's need to add check to compare config before saving to minimize disk writing.

Most of my 480’s have 8GB ram by Samsung. After I’m done with it, I will work on Elpida.

Honestly, checking values is just too much trouble. I will do something else to reduce disk access.

Thanks about disk access. For SSD it important.

Samsung and Elpida is good. But what about Hynix MJR memory?

Technically, this is pretty straight forward, but I need to figure out a good way to implement this feature without making the user interface more confusing for the nontechnical users. We will see...

Unfortunately, I'm not so rich... But I know that Hynix MJR memory works similiar to Micron memory... Timings from Micron memory works good  and better for Hynix MJR without editing.

Zawawa:

when you said:

its probably the same things that happen with my Italian windows and  the fact that you sw keep askying at the start for a 24 GB virtual page minimum even if I have a 60 gb virtual page! And that the sw is unable to modify it when I let it run...

[z97rx470]

Why this keep freezing my rig after like 30 minutes it doesn't even restart I have to manually reset the power supply to get it going again

Try to lower overclock or rise voltage if you make undervoltage. Also try to lower intensity. Wich algo you mine?

[QuirkSilver]

Zawawa, why don't you include default PBE timings 1.6.7 one..
Hynix MJR though is garbage, i hash monero on 4gb way faster than on 8gb rx 580 (well, same thing with memory controllers as i expected, funnily, RX 560 2gb elpida, mines at 540 H/s 1200/2050 undervolted (didn't try going more!) even the non 6 pin version! it doesnt even throttle! meaning less than 45 watts or even less of energy, meanwhile, the 4GB variants does mid 400s!)

[FFI2013]

Figure I'd let you know that I'm getting 815h on my r9 390 and the pool is reporting about the same but at the bottom it says 404h and one more thing does the overclocking work now I had a old release before and just install the latest and didn't want to uninstall afterburner if I still needed but would much rather run my clocks through the miner

What brand rx 560 are you using I'm trying to find some more decent cards you don't need a loan for and 540h at 45w is good plus I like the cryptonight algo

How do you delete the settings Gateless gate applies during startup? I have autostart/automine setup, and I undervolted 2 cards too low, which means after 5 minutes two cards crash and then the other cards crash the program after 20 minutes. I have tried uninstalling Gateless gate but the settings are stored on my win 10 computer somewhere else, probably the registry. How do i delete the settings for overclock, undervoltage, intensity and such for the GGS  so i can start from fresh?

Just hold the "SHIFT" key during startup of GGS.
