[ziadsa]

Guys, do i need specific driver t mine with this program?

now it crashes my pc when i start it, it used to mine, not anymore, claymore any version works, cryptonight or ethereum, both are fine.

and when it used to work the program shutting down my system after few minute,

[formum]

We are waiting for the version for Linux

First try not using --asm and set -I 20 (intensity).  if it works, you need to change your pagefile.sys file to 30000.
Restart.
Add back the --asm -I 21, then 22 and try 23.

[bubbagump]

Are there any plans to add lyra2z (zcoin algo)?

[Elder III]

I think the developer is working on a Linux version right now... I haven't read anything about any plans to add different algorithms at this point.

Hi guys,

everytime when i start the .cmd then I have the windows error (window goes open)

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 1
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100


mkxminer.exe --exitsick --asm  -o stratum+tcp://mona.suprnova.cc:2995 -u test.Monacoin -p x -I 23

I try also with --platform 0, but not working!

I have 2 times the same rig with 7 rx580 cars, and is working for the one rig, but not the second one! (both really SAME!!)

Error: mkminer.exe error, (0xc000007b)
then i need to press OK....

I cant understand ...because in the one rig is working perfect!

Im using the Latest version 3.0.1 Windows!

Any ideas guys?

Thank so much for help

EDIT: The working rig with R580 8giga makes only 32MH/s....is this normal?--> also here some ideas?

Following for Linux version. Can't wait to run this as I can't figure out how to get a decent lyra2v2 sgminer hash on my RX 580s:)

Luisa, please, try advice in post N351. I think you need big pagefile for 7 cards.
I have 38MH/s from each 580. "-I 23" not working for me.

[Luisjc69]

Thank you,

my VM or Pagefile is 55Giga!! Im sure that is ok or??

About "I=23", of course I can try also the --asm, but allready i coming the "window" with the .exe ERROR!!

But I try and try

Greetings
Luisa

Dont forget, I have 2 times the same rig with the same config/values....in one is working with 55Giga VM, and the other ones in coming this error

Then raisers and swapping power contacts. May be problem in 1 card (slot, raiser, power, card).
Another algorithms is working?
Try with a single card (-d 0 or -d 1 and so one) and I=21 without --asm to start.
I had a similar problem on my daughter's computer (470 card). In the beginning everything worked fine, but then it stopped - the miner did not start, the window appeared with an error, nothing helped. I switched on another algorithm (equihash) and forgot. In a few hours the computer just hung, but after rebooting - the miner (v3.00) started to run again and now v3.01 is working also.
Im sorry, Luisa, I have no more advices.

Hello dear members of this topic and developer too.

I have been facing the same problem with the miner for 4 days already.

Right after miner start, I got the message with 0xc000007b error.

Whatever I did - installed x86 compatible package (I have W10 x64), reinstalled AMD drivers (both blockchain and common), installed AIO programm - nothing helps me.

I have been in mining for more than a year, I worked with almost all miners, but here... this error freaks me out. I beg you, please help me to make my new Sapphire Fury X gpus working.

Config: 1x RX570, 4x Fury X

I tried to launch the system w/o RX 570 - same result

P.S.: I also noticed a guy who didn't reach 55 MH/s hashrate with Fury X. Any opinions on that? Actually, I purchased these GPUs to work with this miner only.

[fapar]

Hello winmkx!
Which drivers are recommended for RX480? I have now 17.12.2. The videocard produces a maximum of 32MH. Will there be optimization of the miner to raise the hashrate or is it already redistribution?

[0xb1]

AWESOME MINER, winmkx.

I do not reach 39... but 37.5MH/s per card. Im very satisfied tho, very stable, excellent.
Altough i think you can reach the 39 with my Bios, just play with the powertune and intensity options.

I always see if i can keep the cards at around 60°, wich is the case here.
If you care less about heat or powerdraw.. change the -powertune option to +10 instead of -5...

My Setup:

2x Sapphire Nitro+ RX580 4GB (Elpida)
Beta Blockchain Drivers August
mkxMiner 3.0.1 (settings attached below)
Custom Bios (attached below)

Launch Params

Code:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

start "mkxMiner // XVG Verge-Lyra2REv2" mkxminer.exe --asm -o stratum+tcp://xvg-lyra.suprnova.cc:2595 -u LOGIN.WORKER -p x -I 23 --powertune -5,-5

My Result

37.5MH / 37.5MH

my drivers are crashing if i leave --asm in the batch file

what can i do to fix this?
RX 580 8GB card - latest drivers
Win 10 - latest update

Hey,

I just tried this miner and I am very impressed. I have a Sapphire Fury Trix (4096SP) it runs at 1020Mhz with -60mV @~55°C. I get about 48-49 ish MH/s it started slowly creeping towards 50 thought.
I ran version 3.0.1 of the miner with 16.3.2 drivers.
Some things I noticed:

• As mentioned before make sure you have the x64 AND x86 version of the Visual C++ Redistributable package installed - I had pretty much all other versions (2015, 2017, x64, x86) but it only works with the 2013 one
• Doesn't seem to work on 15.12 drivers, went over to 16.10.3 which got the power limit working but was rather unstable, couldn't get it to run with -20mV even. Try the 16.3.2 Version this worked well for me (-60mV). On that note I wonder what other Fury owners get hashrate wise especially with newer drivers - maybe it's just my card
• Never play with MSI afterburner and AMD Overdrive/Wattman at the same time....apart from weird graphic glitches it disabled the automatic fan control and set it to 20% resulting in a rather toasty 74+°C card
• Intensity 23 did not work for me, 22 was the maximum, asm was turned on though - maybe that's why my hashrate was a bit lower, then again I have a Fury "X" so who knows

It's an awesome miner and I am happy cause it shows what even older AMD cards can do compared to Nvidias Pascal lineup. However, the powerdraw of 250W+ and heat and with that fan noise made me switch back to equihash again. My setup is pretty much a workstation with a miner running if I don't use it and for that it is simply too loud. It's about 20% more profitable than the alternatives for sure but for ME the drawbacks are too much to bear.  

Lastly, I got a more general question regarding Fury undervolting and AMD drivers. Because I really really struggled getting any of the 16.x.x version to play nicely even on other algos. I got it running now on 15.12 with -100mV no problem on 16.10.3 it would glitch or crash on the desktop with -30mV and 16.3.2 was "stable" with -60mV but that was it's limit no matter the algo.  
Is that "normal" behaviour? How are your cards doing regarding different drivers and voltages?  

[navydude]

Getting device not supported (TONGA) no amd device detected. They are power color 380x on windows 10 x64. I have 5 other rigs running and two of them are exactly the same as this one. Any ideas?

Whats wrong with Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 ?

[dieblub]

Whats wrong with Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 ?

 

Since I use this card for things besides mining at times I don't wanna lose the HBM overclock.
That's why I haven't kept up too well with drivers, btw the bios signature checks in newer drivers are only making trouble on Polaris not Fiji right?
I only tried the 16.x.x versions since they are most often advertised as the most compatible for certain mining programs I guess. 
I can test the newest drivers out today and report back what they do performance wise.

I'm curious if compute/graphics workload selection works for Fury too

That could bring you some more performance
