[Cast XMR] high speed XMR/CryptoNight miner for RX Vega GPUs (2 KHash/s)

[duyquang06]

Hi all, I'm getting plenty of shares rejected from Nicehash, anybody worked out how to stop this? Often 'share above target' - no issues on any pools that I've noticed...

add -algo=1 --fastjobswitch on bat file.

Hi guys! First of all id like to thank the developer for a good and stable piece of software. 2nd of all I have a problem with running over 1700H/s with my vega 56 air boosts. Both cards run stable on 1700. I have Radeon 18.5.2 Relive, played with Wattman - 945 mhz memory, frequency -2% memory -22%. How can i get it to 1900 H/s ?

Got any ideas?

Install Aug23 blockchain driver
--forcecompute
Do not update win to 1803 version

Hmm this made it even worse, now running at 1000 H/s

Do extractly like the guide said. You will react 19xx h/s ez.

anyone got good settings for Gigabyte RX 570 4GB Samsung memory for Heavy?  cant go over 740-760h/s

with SRB miner one of my asus strix 570 4GB is hashing about 808 h/s, while other can do 800 h/s
it clocks about 1185 mhz core and 1850mhz memory, both have hinyx memory, which is not the fastest one
I do not think this is the best result, but for it is quite stable and I think this is ok

This program keeps freezing on my vega rigs, anyone else have this problem or have a fix? on v100 and v110

same here, miner just stops hashing for me but if i come back and hit enter/space or whatever itll spit out that it has old shares or w/e and shit and then get back to mining current shares or whatever

Ugh i hate my Airboost, its the gimp of my rig. First Get GPU-Z and check memory brand, if its hynix like mine you dont wanna clock memory over 900mhz or it'll develop seizures. Then download amd driver uninstall utility and run it. install Radeon Driver 18.3.4 or Radeon Driver 18.4.1 and do CUSTOM install. Display Drivers only. you do not want any of that wattman crap. then get yourself a copy of OverdriveNtool, this is how you will handle over clocking. on the memory mV turn it all down to 900 and memclock p3 to 900mhz. If you want to get fancy and get them down to 170watts including risers you'll have to check out the vegaguides stuff.
Dont dick around with power settings, you get power savings from changing the voltage.  If its hynix memory best stable hash you can expect is around 1830ish. If its samsung I still wouldn't go over about 925mhz in my experience only the reference can handle the 940+ mhz clocks, and after 925 the gains are minimal.  I use win 10 1709, if you have the newer version you might have to roll back or try everything i said with the 18.5.2 drivers

I am unable to earn coins as estimated by any calculator for my hashing power. I am earning less that 25% coins of the estimated earnings per day calculated by all profitability calculators. I have tried using couple of different pools but no improvement.

I am running a Powercolor Red Dragon vega 56 with samsung memory, doing 1650 H/s mining graft coins, AMD Radeon Drivers v18.4.1 with cast xmr 1.1.5 latest version, windows 10 ver. 1709 build 16299.461. Miner is stable with no crashes & 100% good results.

I have followed the guide at vega.miningguides.com to setup my vega. I have still not used powerplay tables, but i intend to do it a later stage.

Can someone help me in finding why i am not able to earn close to estimated coins per day as reported by profitability calculators? Is there something additional that needs to be done?

1650h/s on a samsung vega? your doing something wrong. Per chance do you have a monitor plugged into this vega? bc you cant do that and mine at full speed. also calculators are junk. they are based on a perfect purely theoretical yield. as if all the coins mined that day were evenly distributed based on hash rate, not how it works in reality. your payout will vary wildly day to day somedays it may be higher than the calculator. Also with only one vega you should try to be on the largest pool of the coin your mining for a more even payout.

Your rig is probably fine, just some bad luck at the pools.  The calculators on pools get their results from network stats and not actual pool stats.  If the pool you’re on is running over 100 average effort (luck), then you will make less than calc says.  The pool I’m on was running average effort of 55-65% last week, so I made 2 times what calculator said, but average effort changes with every block found.

Yes the hash rates are too low i am aware. I am running this at stock setting without any modifications. I set this up by referring vega.miningguide.com website, i still have to implement their powerplay overdrivetool settings yet. The reason i am still reluctant is because i am confused. They say not to use wattman at all and most of the videos and guides for vega modify using either Wattman or MSI Afterburner. I am pretty new to this and still learning what to do and how.

Plus there are 2 switches on GPU and i am unable to find what those switches do in what position. No manuals for it can be found.

BTW what should be the stock H/s on a samsung vega and what should be the expected overclocked H/s?

I thought so too, So how do we decide which is the best mining pool for us? How are mining pool analyzed?

The difference i get is drastic, to a point of not even meeting the electricity cost break even point. For example, on cryptunit it varies 70-90 coins per day at 1650 H/s for graft. However all i was getting at first day is 5 graft coins after mining straight for 15 hours. Then next day i got 31 graft coins after 36 hours mining on grftpool.com

Then i switched to https://graftpool.net and now i have been mining from past 16.5 hours on this pool and i see a pending earned balance of just 29 grafts.

Is this difference normal?

Thanks!

Any plans on future support for Cryptonight-Alloy?

Keep up the great work!

Is it possible to get any decent hashrate with windows 10 patch1803 ? Vega56  

Cant get past 1700'ish
