AMD New Drivers Adrenalin - mining Perf same, Claymore temp/fan monitoring broke

AMD august blockchain driver for now with vega 56 is the best option.

AMD august blockchain driver for now with vega 56 is the best option.

i agree with that, other new drivers are really bad at least for me

is there any body using after burner 4.4.2 with 18.2.1 with rx 570 4gb...
i think Adrenalin is not supported buy after burner...!!!

[kgminer]

facing the same problem where temperatures, fan and OC settings break and can't use claymore to control these settings.

these settings work fine with these drivers until rig crashes for some reason (like the power outage), a notification appears that wattman settings have been restored to default and then I lose all the control.

Trying to find a workaround, once I get somewhere will update everyone here.

i was using it and  gave me a headache i switched to ndrivetool, far better

What about 18.4.1 version ? Have you try to mine with it?

[UnclWish]

I encountered bug with 18.4.1 - periodically speed on GPU on wich display connected to drops to 0.

Since we're on the topic, which AMD driver is working the best for you guys?  I'm having the best performance on 18.6.1 and 18.5.1 on Compute mode compared to other driver versions (including the latest 18.7).

I am using different version on every rig and dont feel any difference. Maybe vega rig needs some specific driver, but other cards will work fine with latest version usually.

18.4.1 were buggy, so just stay away

Best would be 18.3.4 and 18.6.1
Different CN algos act differently on those, but the difference is very slight, so only if you are min/maxing a rig for specific algo - it's worth testing, otherwise just pick any of them

Blockchain are outdated and pointless, unless you use a specific miner that has kernel compiled for it, like MkxMiner for lyra2v2, but even then, lyclMiner is significantly better.
