Any word on amd vega hash rates?

[JuanHungLo]

With Vega 56, what can you do if you are using OverdriveN and HWinfo64 still reports a higher voltage than was set?

Keep in mind that the set voltage is still a bit dynamic, that's normal and wanted.

Depending on how low you want to go with your voltage you probably need one or both of a) editing reg entries b) flashing to 64 bios.

And don't forget to restart your devices.

Is anyone here running their Vegas on one 8 pin PCIe cable split into 2 6+2 connectors? I know daisy chaining can be bad but the cables that came with the PSU ( Corsair hx1000 ) are heavy duty compared to other PCIe cables with only one 6+2 connection.

I am running mine at the  2x8pin (technically 8 + 6+2pin)  cables that came with my corsairs. don't you have enough of these? with the rm1000x there are 4 of these per psu.  

Yeah I have 4x 8pin to 2x6+2pin. Up till now I've only been running 2 Vegas from the PSU using two cables per Vega. Just read a lot of horror stories regarding daisy chaining PCIe cables, although most of this is people using the splitters. I didn't find much info on wether it was safe to use one PCIe cable for each vega

I tried running a 56 off a splitter, seemed to work fine but it was just one.  Next I will try two 56s off the same cable.  Corsair CX750M.  I am mining CryptoNight though, not EthHash, which is very gentle on power compared to EthHash.

I wouldnt run two Vegas on one 8pin cord from the PSU.  Your options are either two risers or both plugs on one GPU.

Look at this new miner:

mkxminer: optimized Lyra2rev2 miner for AMD GPUs (Vertcoin, Monacoin, XVG)

=== Speeds (no overclocking)
Radeon Pro Duo: 84.8MHs (42.4 + 42.4)
Fury X: 55MHs
Vega56: 47MHs (can be optimised further, just need some time and incentive)
RX 580: 39MHs
RX 480: 36MHs
R9 390: 32MHs
R9 380X: 26MHs
R9 280X: 26MHs

I suppose Ethereum going to POS next year is going to be stress free event now!

I was wondering has anyone tried out the vega frontier edition yet. do the guides to get it running to around 1900 h/s work on the FE edition as well? I was going to build a rig for rendering animations as well, and I wanted to know if I should go with the Frontier or 56/64 way. I know about all of the guides and setups to make the 64 work to 1900 h/s and was wondering if these will work (including that blockchain driver) for the FE as well.

What am I looking at? Why those numbers so high?

New Assembler-optimized Lyra2rev2 Miner for AMD GPUs!

Fee based and this hashing per AMD card type without overclocking.

Currently, it has limited pool capability, so you will need to check pools or perhaps PM the developer to work on a particular pool.

Just as a comparison:

GTX 1060 gets 26mhs
GTX 1070 gets 39mhs
GTX 1080 TI get 60mhs

Here a link to the forum post on it's release:

47MH means "just" $2/day on the Vega. Does not look much.

[cptfisher]

but this asm kernel is good on my fury ! got 51mhs and my fury shining again at a very good profitability

It will handle it for sure if it is a quality PSU and cable.

Would I do it my self (again :p) ? No, unless your pc is in a highly fire retardant enviorment.


A quality 8pin cable is rated for 24 amps so around 290W. There is probably another 100w head room as well. So lets say 400w very max.

2 vegas should not be pulling above 200w, (250w peak maybe) from the pcie cables @ cryptonight.


But DO NOT DO THIS on a cheap bronze rated PSU. These use cheap crimp terminals and housings that will fail. On high end PSU's its doable.

I guess I don't understand your recommendation.  What do you mean two risers?

How much XMR should bring GPU?

I'm using server PSU's and taking one 6-pin cable and connecting it to a Y splitter that has (2) 6+2 ends that I plug into my 1080 Ti's and my Vegas (different rigs).

It's working fine.  If you know what you are doing and you dial back your Nvidia cards, or your Vega cards, so that they are not drawing above 250watts per card, I don't think there is a problem.

I've been doing this for a while so I don't think this is luck.

Vega 56 will do 1,900 and do so with stability and low power draw.  Getting there is a pain, but the path is pretty well explained in this thread and the Cast thread.

A single rx vega 56/64 can pull about 2000 hashes/second at about 150W if that's what you mean.

I have had 1 Vega Frontier running on a Z170 board, I have 2 others but disabling and re-enabling fails to re-enable the other 2 although I managed to get 2 running once both at max speed.

I have now had one VF running for 2 weeks solid with xmr-stak-amd, average 2106H/s peak 2500+ mining electroneum (2 threads 2016)

blockchain driver, when it was running 2 cards was following a clean install on a reinstalled windows (using windows repair feature)
