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

[Bojcha]

careful mining to crytopia , I lost all my earnings from support xmrs pool, and since they merge payments for all miners unlike other pools , you can’t eveb see how much you were paid per payout or what transaction Id your particular payouts were are part off im SOL

all this happened post fork,,Ive been mining this way for years, it seems the payment Ids are gettting lost
with the new fork

That's your exchange fault. I just got my xmr on bittrex from that pool. All fine.

Can someone help me with nicehash setup?
I had it setup once, but now it does not work again.
Pools conf:

It does not go beyond this..

Any help?

my nicehash setup is:

in the start file, the final line is:

Code:

config-normal-v8 its default,

Confirm that, but with intensity 27 i got even more hashes on v7.
Now my 7970 with 1125/1500 clocks on v8
intencity 31
worksize 8
threads 2
485 H/s
12 Hrs stable

no clock all default 1000@1500 card 7970, miner SRB

I could not repeat your result on my card even during overclocking, maybe your card has better timings. What driver did you use? 7970 Ghz edition?

After trying to achieve the best results with these settings { "id" : 0, "intensity" : 60, "worksize" : 8, "threads" : 1}, I went back to intencity 31 worksize 8 threads 2, and for my surprise, I did not get stability even without overclocking and with less intensity, now I set the size of work 16 and gradually increased the intensity. For now setup is  { "id" : 0, "intensity" : 28, "worksize" : 16, "threads" : 2} on my tahiti with clocks 1125/1500 got 450 H/s.

Does this miner work with AMD Radeon R9 200 Series?
I have problem with:

Please use : Adrenalin 18.5.1, 18.5.2 or 18.6.1 drivers
Total pools: 2

I think I saw posts here about the successful launch of srb on v8 on pitcairn, but I could not find it. Install recommended driver first and then try to use the settings that are in this message for tahiti.

I have a rx560 rig using 18.6.1 drivers, on v8 they all went down to ~380-400 h/s with the same settings from v7 (500-520 h/s)
I had power limit at -10% with v7, on v8 I can get back to ~430-460 h/s just by raising the power limit to +10%
Some cards got a small boost when I increased virtual memory from 16 gb to 20 gb. Haven't tried to change the intensity and worksize yet, doubt they will make any difference. v8 definitely needs more power and virtual memory than v7 to alleviate hash loss.

hi. how many gb on your rx 560? 2 gb or 4gb?

Hello. I have a question about threads.
If set in config.txt "double_threads" : true, and threads : 2 in every gpu config line, gpu_conf.......

i,m setting 4 threads for every gpu???

Hello. I don't test R9 200 series, but i have one R7 260x 2Gb gpu (bonaire) working fine, and one Sapphire HD7850 gpu (pitcairn) 1Gb working fine too. With Adrenalin 18.5.2 drivers.

[-manki-]

I apologize for spreading fuzz about Vega hotspot temps on Friday - it was all my own fault. Conductonaut had solidified/oxidized most likely due to power outage 2 days before the fork(even though room temp did not drop to 8C).
I also apologize for my unfair outburst towards Monero devs(at the moment of writing I thought v8 had killed my card).

Vega owners, check your hotspot temps. My Vega didnt survive the night mining v8 even when I dropped the core to 1250@865mV
And a big fat F U to Monero devs

Completely your fault. Many times was repeated - do not look GPU temp. Every Vega need to be set at 50c gpu temp (which is minimum by driver) and then HotSpot and HBM2 temps will be ok.

What GPU temp are you referring to?

Overall my hashrate dropped 5% with 10% power increse vs v7.

Miner is very unstable on polaris cards , constant crashes and reboots on most of my rigs

[Lunga Chung]

more juice and lower intensity, which cards?

[dingdongtobias]

no problem on 470, 570, 580 cards if you set good. you don't know to set good, sorry.

[Marvell2]

more juice and lower intensity, which cards?

mix of 470s 480s and 570s , all my cards are set really low core like 1130 mac or 1080 with the voltage around 900 works great on eth and had no issues on v7 using claymore.

mem is set from 1800 to 1925 max

with srb having lots of rigs randomly go down using the default picked intesities.  tried a fixed intensity of 50 and do I have to go even lower?

v8 is significantly more power hungry, check your power supply and cooling

no trolling, written 100x times v7 settings not good for v8, you must find good settings, and v8 need more power.
v8 not v7 and not eth.

why hard to read previous posts

I think I saw messages here about the successful launch of srb on v8 on pitcairn, but I could not find it. Install recommended driver first and then try to use the settings that are in this message for tahiti.

Radeon R9 270X 4Gb (Pitcairn) with manual modded bios, Windows 10 x64 Pro, 18.10.1 driver. Gives 500 h/s on v8 with kernel 1, with kernel 2 speed slower.

Owners of 580 8Gb please share your settings and wich kernel file you're use?

[kostepanych2]

Can someone help me to create a batch for set gpu and mem voltages?

+ "startup_script" can be used to run a script (batch file) before miner starts. You can for example set clocks, voltages, etc. specific to that algo

I'm also interested in how to set GPU and memory clocks and voltages with SRBMiner...
Is it possible? Can't find any examples...

[Lunga Chung]

This is my setting:

RX580 Sapphire Nitro + (Samsung) 4gb

{
"cryptonight_type" : "normalv8",
"intensity" : 59,
"worksize" : 8,
"double_threads" : true
}

Wrosksize can 8 or 16 doesn't change much.

Best card 989 H/s, worst card 973 H/s

OC:

Core 1260
Voltage 900mV

Mem 2120
Voltage 900mV

[ntshb]

I realised my config file is missing a comma and causing errors in the miner.

Did anyone notice a very annoying bug with AMD drivers since 18.2.1?

SRBminer doesn't properly identify cards anymore. On one rig, every card is a RX480, not a problem, since all of them are ellesmere (480, 580, 570).

However on another rig I have with a RX 570 and a RX 560, both are detected as RX560 and the ellesmere card gets an intensity of 29 with dismal performance...



With 18.2.1 drivers all works as expected



Thoughts?
