No need to toggle the HBCC before starting a miner. In fact you don't have to touch it at all.
Just go to Device Manager->DisplayAdapters->RightMouseClick on Vega to Disable and then Reanable it again.
You have to do it after every windows restart.

BTW here is a nice guide for mining with Vegas and not using Radeon software: vega.miningguides.com

Cast XMR gives me better results than Stak XMR when mining with Vega56.

when getting corrupt display     it is more a gpu probleme or ram problem ?

because i can't figure it out for now
when i play a video while mining   my display get corrupt
i tired to undervolt less but not effect, also try do decrease memory a bit  has no effect also for now
as i have 2 vega in the computer i switch them but did not help ever


me to i can't find any vega here i m sad i did not buy 3 more

i think i m going to build an gtx1070x5   good idea or not?

because waiting on vega can take month and price will be 100€ more at lease like what happen the rx series

Hello everyone!
I also have 2 GPU Vega 56 and when I add the -G 0,1 line everything crashes and I have to restart.
Otherwise using only one card i get 1950h/s, even 2000 if i put power usage to 0%.
It crashes even if use WinMiner and a very low power setting on Wattman.

I am afraid that the PC crashes using 2 gpu, because the motherboard may not be strong enough it is a 3 years old Gygabite, maybe is not recent enough. It is supposed to support 2 AMD Gaming GPU (even in crossfire) though...


On a different note, For those who gets Hs drops after a while it may be because the fan are below 3000rpm.



Pretty much as I stated above...
it is not the mobo, I followed step-by step to setup my rig http://vega.miningguides.com/ I have 2 Vega 64 on a 5 years old Asus P8H61-M LE and i get stable 1960 H/s per card, your problem is the Wattman.. quote from the site: "If you installed the full AMD application, NEVER EVER open the AMD application.  In other guides you will hear references to Wattman.  Ignore them.  You will hear references to HBCC sliders.  Ignore them.  Opening the driver software works for some people but I have had to uninstall and re-install the drivers ground up because of opening the driver.  Don't do it.  You need it installed and that is it.  (If you did open it and have problems that require uninstall"

I use wattman with no problems. Day after day of stability at over 2K average hash rate on 4 vega 64's. It's not Wattman that is the problem, but I concede that it of course is far from perfect.

Make sure you have 8MB of Virtual Mem per card set in your virtual mem space (windows10). 1024 * 16 for (2 cards) = 16384 + 300 for overhead =16684 total. OR maybe better settings 2 (cards) 1024 *16 *1.5 = 24576VM.
Make sure crossfire is turned off (should not be an option if using the blockchain driver so generally ignore people saying this)
If using wattman sometimes it is best to toggle the HBCC on off after PC reboot. (leave it off on all cards)
My fans are set to 2500RPM min with a target 70C and max of 75C - You will need to adjust fan speed per your climate.If you can keep the cards at 70C and lower, all the better.
turn the monitor settings in windows to never turn off.

That is about all really.


Fire up the script and let it run. You can turn your monitor off and on and the hash rate should stay the same.
Thank you everyone for the tips.
In seems that the crash was caused by the "crossfire" option on Wattman. It was turned on by default, because I never turned it on. As I unchecked it and restarted the Miner with 2 gpu, it just worked like a charm with 1900+ H/s on both cards.
I have been tweaking with both Wattman or OverdriNTTool and apparently it does not make any difference.

I am using the blockchain drivers from August23 version, are these the latest one?

No one test the latest drivers with vegas? (17.11.3)

I see everyone only using the blockchain drivers.

Also, there is a way to put the vegas work automatic after a powerloss?

It's been tested. While it increases performance for things like Ethhash, it does not play well with Cryptonight compared to the August drivers.

anyone using nicehash (legacy), and anyone collecting fees *cough* dev *cough* should probably request this be officially added to nicehash.
if you google "CryptoNight miner for RX Vega GPUs #478" you'll find the correct place to do so.

if they day ever comes that some other algo is close to the same profitability on a vega, it sure would be nice to have this working via nicehash so it can switch automatically.

Hi guys I've been wanting to use this miner but can't seem to get it to work. Every time I run it I get this error https://imgur.com/a/oB4l9
My batch file reads like this. " cast_xmr-vega -S xmr-us-east1.nanopool.org:14444 -u 45KjUS75gPfatjfHjtBkEedq9VhWqC3T4V8eX8chfotU2ojgxADrAfSSGVXCkkLahLABygygGEwKGED Wk545ZWQd9ieFGcm.default %* "
If anyone could shed some knowledge on how I can get this running it would be a huge help.

Thanks

Read through these posts you'll find the answer.

Hi,

I have 4x vega 56 into my system but when i start Cast XMR i get the follow error:

Code:
[15:22:51] Initializing GPU, loading kernel ...
[15:22:52] [Suspicious link removed]pute Driver NOT detected.

By installing the AMD [Suspicious link removed]pute Driver upto 80% higher hash
rates can be achieved. For more info check http://www.gandalph3000.com

GPU0: Intel(R) HD Graphics 510 | 12 Compute Units
[15:22:52] This version only supports AMD RX Vega 56/64 and RX 480/580 GFX cards. Sorry.

You can check http://www.gandalph3000.com for latest versions of cast XMR.

Maybe an optimized version for your GPU is available.

So it will load only my internal GPU Tongue how i can set Cast XMR to use my 4x vega 56?

Hey guys,

I have 3x VEGA-64 cards.

I can run one no problem.

I can run two no problem. The 2nd card can go into Slot 1 or Slot 3 (first card stays in slot 2). The 3rd card can go into Slot 1 or Slot 3 as well.

When I add the third card...  which works with Card #1 in either slot. I get crazy artifacts and a crash.

I know all 3 cards work & all 3 slots work due to troubleshooting.

Disable crossfire

Alrighty... I followed this guide:

http://vega.miningguides.com/

Got Crossfire disabled manually in the Registry since this method does NOT install AMD settings.

All 3 cards are running...  but hash-rate only ~1300 even with the Blockchain driver.

So... more tinkering to go.

SOLVED:

Go to Device Manager

Manually "Disable" and "Re-Enable" each GPU

Now speed is 1800+

Hello,

I have the miner running on a Vega 56 no problems, 580 no problems, but when I run on the rx480 the miner only does one card at a time , each refresh all other cards read 0, then the next refresh the next card reads right but the rest are 0, looks like pool side it ok but client side read incorrectly..anyone run into this?

Cast_xmr-vega-G 0 -S etn.easyhash.io:3634 -u wallet -I 9

 easyhash is not nicehash.
 Try connecting to a NICEHASH server instead.
 You also need a password field.

Yes, saw the same thing when mixing RX 480 and Vega 56s.  Pool side and total reported hash rate looks okay, but the GPU refresh readouts appear as you describe.
