Cryptonight miner designed for AMD [built in OverdriveN and hw monitoring]

[xpulse]

In case someone need it.

I modified JJ-hashrate Powershell script to work with this miner, monitoring hashrate from JSON and restart miner if hashrate hit threshold. Currently setup as 350 H/s.

Anyone tried this with adrenalin drivers plus vegas? I only got 1300h/s on vega 56 with the adrenalin drivers plus XMRig (not Xrig).

yeah this miner dont give blockchain driver hashrate for vega too...amd changed something on its driver kernel from blockchaindriver to 17.10.2...still no miner developer was able to fix it

There is a new driver 18.3.1 adrenalin, even that doesn't work. CN miners are in trouble! We can't mine and play games at the same time. Thanks to AMD.

How do you use only one GPU out of several in the same PC?

were you able to get your FE stable w/ this?

Use something like this, where index is the gpu you want to use:

Code:

{
    "algo": "cryptonight",
    "platform_index": 0,
    "pools": [
        {
            "url": "pool.monero.hashvault.pro:5555",
            "user": "",
            "pass": "x"
        }
    ],
    "api": {
        "port": 4444
    },
    "threads": [
        {"index": 0, "intensity": 1932},
        {"index": 0, "intensity": 1932}
    ],
    "profile": {
        // ...
    }
}

Nice work, but there is no improvements on speed, slightly lower actually.

The compiled version is it 1% fee, or ~5% as according to donate.h on github? https://github.com/arnesson/xrig/blob/master/src/donate.h

Thanks. yes performance dropped a bit with the implementation of CryptonightV7, but this is fixable. Version 0.8.0 is faster.

donate.h was a leftover from xmrig, its not used and have been removed. 1% is the correct one

[peterboy1]

can we disable donation without any shenanigans consequences? if so, then this is the real thing we call "donation".

Haha lol, yeah I wonder if there's a switch. Most miners should do this or just be upfront like castxmr.

Stable, until reboot. After reboot need to do a trick:

1. Safe mode, DDU
2. Reboot
3. Install Adrenilin drivers (any, i'm using 18.2.3)
4. Disable CrossLink and EnableUPS in registry, backup registry
5. Reboot
6. Disable all cards (in device manager)
7. Install Blockchain drivers from Device manager
8. Disable and re-enable all cards.
9. Apply registry backup
10. Apply Softmod
11. backup registry
12. Run miner via script, without reboot.

If system rebooted, need to do the same thing again. It is usually takes up to 15 minutes by running mining.

Is it possible to use the miner on a RX580 rig or is it strictly for Vegas? I know VEGAs are beasts atm, but please try to make it also for RXs series! There are a tremendous lot of people, who are mining on those cards, we would love some dev on that too

Perhaps bad "branding" on my part - it works perfectly well on other AMD cards as well!

Ref earlier posts about the newer adrenalin drivers.

I'm now running 18.3.4 (https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-Adrenalin-Edition-18.3.4-Release-Notes.aspx) and it works nicely, just remember to use compute mode. Seems like the old beta blockchain drivers still performs a few % better though, but with less stability

Version 0.8.2 released.

Changes:
* Improved startup time
* Soft reset of dead/stuck threads
* Minor bug fixes

4. No such thing as CrossLink or EnableUPS in the registry. (You mean EnableULPS, but what is CrossLink).
6. Disable all cards
8. Disable all cards (They are already disabled in step 6)
10. Apply Softmod (What is Softmod? Could it possibly be ATIMdag Pixel Patcher?)

What else is missing?
