mkxminer: Fast Lyra2Z/Lyra2rev2 miner for AMD GPU (ZCoin, GINcoin, VERT, MONA...

[BeeDeeEff]

I see that there is a new open-source miner for Lyra2REv2 on AMD cards now: https://github.com/CryptoGraphics/lyclMiner

Performance seems better for me too 10%-15% faster at same settings on my Vega 64 cards, is mkxminer gonna be updated with code from this?

What hashrates and power draw are you getting? This miner keeps freezing my cards, wonder if I need to optimize or the miner is just buggy

I've got 2 cards at 1360mhz / 875mv gpu core getting 75mh/s
My other 4 cards at 1300mhz / 890mv gpu core getting 70mh/s
All vega 64s

The system with all the cards is pulling 1500watts from the wall.

Also you have to use 18.5.1 adrenalin drivers or newer, the blockchain drivers won't work for me.

Can someone please tell me the .bat command to separate undervolt on core and memory?
--vddc affects both

[fapar]

Specific example: RX480 with the default settings; the BIOS mod (PBE of 1.6.7 "One click").
What is the normal power consumption of a giant graphics card? Are there specific configuration parameters (core and memory frequencies, voltage)?

[coinmancan]

Is there a diff multiplier command to add that would help with getting errors on low diff shares?
ie...  ccminer has the -m command

thanks in advance

No answer to this question, re-asking.

What is the difficulty multiplier command?  The pool I'm working with says to use the below commands to avoid getting rejected shares.  

CCMINER: -m
SGMINER: --difficulty-multiplier
CPUMINER: -m

Right now I get 50% rejected.

Is API working now?

Thanks for posting your OC settings and results. I'm curious about your settings for different cards if they are all Vega 64s. Are they from different manufacturers? I have 3 Vega 64s and one Vega 56, not all the same. Can you let us know which OC settings apply to which cards?

They're all vega64, all reference blower cards, and all from the same manufacturer.  Different gpu cores just overclock or undervolt better than others, it's the silicone lottery.

Since then I've turned down all cards to 1300mhz for long term better stability, but still running at those voltages.  They're getting about 72mh/s each now with the newest version of the Lyclminer.

[Anthony42]

what instruments did downvolt use?

[ikicha]

How to make it work with nicehash ?

Just connect to nicehash lyra2Z stratum server.
But I'm not sure about that. I'm never use nicehash.
I try to set up at MRR and its works

Do you not mean Lyra2rev2? Miner does not work on nicehash so don't bother.

Have you used any non-reference Vega cards? I'm curious because I do not have a reference card. I have an ASUS ROG OC 64, MSI Air Boost OC 64, & Sapphire Nitro+ OC 64. Hashing power is about the same on all three, while the ASUS does a little better on power consumption. I would be curious how the reference cards compare on power consumption.

I've not used any no, non-reference should run cooler, so many the gpu die would overclock better.  But generally your hashrate will be identical to mine if you run your gpu core at the same speed.  The only question would be if you would be stable at that speed at the same voltage level.

mkxminer is vary stable.

Yes.
-I or --intensity - Intensity of GPU scanning (23 for high end cards, 20 for low end).
For example, RX480 -I 21

I tried this setting in lyclMiner and it doesn't seem to work. Which is bad cause overall lycl seems to be more stable and gives higher hashrate than mkxminer.

lyclminer is just the worksize variable in its config, you have to play around with that instead of intensity.

I can't use it, cause I usually set lower intensity in miners. Don't want to fry my gpu.

Please forgive me for misleading you. Yes, lyclMiner uses the worksize parameter; for Vega 64 use WorkSize = "16777216".
