SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.9.3 - native algo switching

[dragonmike]

How are you guys even testing v8? I thought the XMR fork was only next week?

Or are you using some benchmark mode?

V1.6.8 is not stable. Always GPU zero hash. Reload will hang.

It hang without loading kernel completely.

Dear All,

Anyone know the detailed info about startup_script？ How to use it?

Thanks

[doktor83]

OK, i found that sometimes on miner close the overdriven settings are reset, probably because of the forced miner shutdown.
I am going to investigate this issue.

In the meantime, today comes the fixed 1.6.8 that *should* compile on all gpu's.
Also added a new gpu tuning parameter which can boost the hash a little bit.

solve trouble with rx5x0 8 gb low speed on 1.6.8
reinstall card to 8 gpu rig and rate ok on 1.6.8
in 12 gpu rig trouble with low speed on cv-heavy and rx570\8 gb card in 1.6.8
but in 1.6.7 all ok and speed good


in additional/ work 20 min and low rate again. return to 1.6.7 again and rate 1000+

Hello,
i have a rig with 9 x 7950 and 1 x 1080ti , when i start miner, recieve error :

Could not fin suitable kernels for DEVICE BUS ID

I guess that is because NVIDIA , but how can resolve that error ?

Any ideas ?

its old trouble. you can use kernel 2 for 7950. its will be solved in new release

1.6.8 hashrates is lower for me

cards (both sapphire nitro+ 4gb) / hashrate 1.6.7 / hashrate 1.6.8
rx470 / 740 / 720
rx570 / 760 / 740

algo: bittubev2

i switch back to 1.6.7

[logicalray77]

Hi everyone,

mind sharing your configs for RX580 8GB please.
Sometimes miner starts and all cards hashing at 1000+ hs on cnheavy.
Miner restarts and back to around 860hs

Using v1.6.7 as v1.6.8 didn`t give me any hashing increases.

Also curious what intensity you running with v7 on 580?

Thanks

You need set gpu by hand, not use auto. Auto value lower in 1.6.8

FIXED 1.6.8 IS UP AGAIN ON MEGA

Hopefully this is the last fix of 1.6.8, and it should compile now on pitcairns, hawaiis etc..

I also rewrote the resources freeing code on miner shutdown/restart, so it may take now a little longer to close the miner, but this should solve the problems with driver sometimes crashing on miner close.

If you want to use the old, faster shutdown method, you can use the --forcedshutdown parameter , added in start.bat

Also i changed my mind and no more normal and maxi versions, only maxi. Because no one notices the big message on the first page that says which drivers should be used

Please report if hawaiis and pitcairns compile now.
Thanks

[doktor83]

Dear All,

Anyone know the detailed info about startup_script？ How to use it?

Thanks

So, how to use it?

Create a .bat file where you set for example overdriventool to reset your cards & apply profiles to them.
Let's call that file overclock.bat

Then in your start.bat add the --startupscript parameter to the end of line for example :

SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv7.txt --pools pools.txt --logfile %LOGTIME% --startupscript overclock.bat

Now the overclock.bat will be run before the miner starts, so this way you can ensure that on every miner start you apply the overclocking settings.

If you meant the startup_script in algos.txt file, the principle is same, you just enter the overclock.bat filename in the algos.txt file as a value for the startup_script parameter.

possibly heavy algos impacted. Wait for next version, until then use 1.6.7

[abg00]

possibly heavy algos impacted. Wait for next version, until then use 1.6.7

but rx560\4gb work better on 1.6.8
variable rate on 1.6.7 and stable high rate on 1.6.8
use 1.6.8 on cn-heavy for all rx560\4gb ( 3 rig 12 gpu each)

Intensity is 29 in auto mode (both cards). I tried 30, but the miner crashed. I tried 28, the hasrates was lower. I tried 29, the results was same. Which settings set up manually?

yes, i am trying to tune every card separately, so too much cards and too much settings, i probably messed something for the 4xx 5xx series for heavy algos.
