Guys, how is the latest driver 18.4.1 faring compared to 18.3.4 using SRBminer?
I didn't realise the major Windows update would flatten the display drivers (f***ing Microsoft). I now have the choice between putting my previous driver on or use the latest.
Any experiences to share?
EDIT: oh well, what the hell, went with the new driver and... no big change in hashrate.
Good driver 18.4.1 with SRBMiner 1.5.2 RX 570 4GB Elpida V7Normal intensity 58, w8, T2 1022H/S http://prntscr.com/jkqhp6Could you please share your MOD?

Small unimportant bug report:
When reloading pools, the currently connected pool does not disconnect (not a bug, by-design), but when you press the "P" button, you are taken to the second pool instead of the first one, even if you were on the third or fourth or etc. pool prior to reloading. Mini suggestion: If reloaded pool's first pool is different from the currently connected pool, change to the first pool instead of the second. You could also possibly find the connected pool in the new list, and set the index to that, and change to next pool from that index. If there's no match, switch to the first.
This is a very unimportant "bug" btw.

[...] + If you want to use only one pool, or it's important for you to define a pool thru command line, not in pools.txt, you can do it now. Example:
SRBMiner-CN.exe --config config.txt --cpool pool:port --cwallet yourwallet --cpassword yourpassword [...]
This option is working great. I can finally start miner with a parameter and also add pools and wallets to environment variables. Thanks! Few hundred rigs just received new software  I know i'm pushing my luck, but if content of config.txt could also be used as a parameter then i would be totally fulfilled.

I test only one RX 580 8gb in a motherboard, no more gpus and i get 1000 h/s, last srb miner, latest amd driver
Now i install this rx 580 8gb in another motherboard with 6 rx570 4gb, and the hs drop to 690h/s i dont understand what happen....the same config.

please share your wattman config, and config txt..... he is running a very high coreclock with high power consumption, there is no other way to get this speed with a rx 580 with any miner/config

it looks to me that you were not logged to a pool, so there was no job for the GPU to work on, that's why it was 0 hash, it was not working on any job. In that case it wasn't a crash, thats why watchdog did not restart miner. The question now is why it did not connect to a pool so long. Is that sg.haven.miner.rocks having a lot of problems?
Might be my network since a cable was cut on the Pacific. Usually, my ping is 100+ now it's 200+. Anyways thanks for the miner! this gave me an idea i could implement something that reconnects to a pool if gpu is not working on a job let's say for 10 minutes. Although it should try to reconnect and reconnect and reconnect to a pool until it succeeds. Don't know why it did not try in your case. Did this situation happen only one time ? Yeah, have been mining smoothly before. It did succeded reconnecting tho after disconnecting from dev pool? Cant tell if the pool blocked me so I cant reconnect? I've set my reconnect time to 10 seconds now instead of 5.

Hmm. This is weird. Just reinstalled Win10 fresh, removed compiled kernels and launched the SRBMiner but now it reports both cards as Vega  GPU0: Radeon RX Vega [Ellesmere] [8192 MB][Intensity 52.0][W: 8][T: 2][K: 1][BUS: 6] GPU1: Radeon RX Vega [gfx900] [8176 MB][Intensity 111.0][W: 16][T: 2][K: 1][BUS: 11] This is Vega 56 + RX580 setup. Even used DDU to remove stock drivers before installing latests. Even compiled kernel files looks like this https://i.imgur.com/n1IJgwp.jpgEDIT: Even more weird. I can only see RX580 with HWiNFO. EDIT2: Forgot to put Compute mode on for RX580. Haven't tried without it so didn't know it would work like that in graphics mode. EDIT3: After I rebooted, both showed up as Vega again even in this compute mode but this time speeds are decent and I can see both in HWiNFO. Re-ticking Compute mode makes them both get recognized again.

doktor83 in one of the recent patches you disabled the restart gpu on startup option for all gpus except Vega, but it is also required for the R9 Fury.
I have found that if I do anything on my pc that requires GPU access (editing, 3d and games) after I am done, if i start the miner up again my hash rate is ~30% lower, but if i disable the GPU and re-enable it, hash rate returns to full speed.

Good job doktor. Lots of updates. One of the things that has stopped me from using it over xmr-stak is the web interface when checking for hashrates via browser. In xmr-stak it is very easy to read, it shows errors in detail, like which gpu caused the error or if it was a network error etc. All in a pleasant to the eye interface. Do this for your and you will have another user  User vitalyoff made a dashboard in HTML+JS, you can check it out here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3167363.msg36587137#msg365871371.Enable API in config.txt 2.Copy the code you need (1,2 or 3 rigs) in notepad, save it with .html extension from the link above 3.Edit this html to fit your needs (Rig frienly name, miner API IP and port)  Thanks. Any plans of integrating something a bit easier on the eyes into SRBMiner?

Put this in .bat before miner : devcon.exe restart =Display

Did u get more with those old cards? (stable) I've try To flash 6950 To 6970 but the card bip and won't Boot. 2 VTX 6950 1 Gigabyte 6950 Someone flash successful wich bios is ok ? Guy's could u share your config ?

oh too soon, it gives invalid results  flash bios 6950 to 6970 and use this config; 360 h/s xmr-stak drivers 14.4 // gpu: Cayman memory:1663 // compute units: 24 { "index" : 1, "intensity" : 874, "worksize" : 19, "affine_to_cpu" : false, "strided_index" : 1, "mem_chunk" : 2, "comp_mode" : true }, Who Did u get the good bios I've 2 VTX 6950 and 1 Gigabyte iv'e try To flash with 4 different 6979 bios at reboot card bip ! I've try this method https://www.techpowerup.com/articles/overclocking/vidcard/159Thx

Any IDEA how automate ON HBC memory on vega?
ON start rig automatic: 1.disable and enable all card (devcon.exe disable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F") 2.Run OverdriveNTool.exe (OverdriveNTool.exe -r1 -r2 -r3 -p1profile1 -p2profile1 -p3profile1) 3. start srbminer
but HBC not work and HR is 1300 not 1500 on hevy adn i must stop miner start srminer intesity 60 close miner and start miner 56 intensity.
Any IDEA?
SOLVED1-devcon.exe disable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F" (disable all vega) 2-devcon.exe enable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F" (enable all vega) 2-OverdriveNTool.exe -r1 -r2 -r3 -p1profile1 -p2profile1 -p3profile1 3-start resetHBC.bat (start miner with reset.config and 60 intesity) timeout 60 (wait start reset.bat and kill reset.bat miner) 4-taskkill /F /IM "SRBMiner-CN.exe" (kill miner) 5- start srbminer.bat ( with intensity 56) end
