Hey Doc,
i am just playing around with the Heavy Types an see, that the most speed increase is in the RX570ies.
But what is the concret Problem with the Hardware errors? is every HWR a Share which is not send to the Pool? I want to calculate the decrease in real Hashrate with it.
When i get with Heavy Mode 3 around 90H/s more in total for a RIG and i got 3 HWR. Is it worth it to use it?
Those are not hw errors, those are compute errors which means the gpu returned a wrong result, it did not pass the validation on the cpu. those shares are not sent to the pool of course because they would be rejected. You get 3 compute errors in 1hr, 12hr , 24hr ? If 24hr then its not much imo.

When these are 2,75% of the total shares and the increase in Mode 3 is around 1,75% it is not worth to use it, right?

Thanks for new version.
When could we see support for a more recent amd drivers?
Thanks
What do you mean? It works with the latest drivers also hmm ok nice.. As i seen recommend 18.6.1. did not want to risk. 1 - Can i install it and mine normally without change anything in my config_? 2 - Other question dok, i notice that auto intensity from version 1.7.0 was [56] and now is [60] ,for vega 64, why such increase? is safe to maintain that? 3 - In my rigs i use winver v1709 and disable all updates. I want to use in my desktop pc one vega 64, its ok to install last winver and amd drivers with no lose in performance? Smiley in rigs im not updating anything, only for new drives if you say is safe Smiley Cool 4 - Its possible to put in log the gpu temps? Many thanks for help  1. Can you change the miner version without config change? Hard to tell,depends which version are you using, if it is 170+ you can swap, config is same. 2. auto intensity is there just as a start point, you should set intensity by hand, at least if you want max performance 3. I think the recommended drivers work best, miner will work with the latest drivers but i think performance will be lower than on recommended. 4. possible, i will add it on the wishlist Thanks for anwser doc  1- what i was asking is if change from recomended drivers for new one require anychange in the config miner file  ? 2- thanks 3- ok, i will stick to that 4- i think is a must have  Regards

Anyone mining UPX with Vega 56's?
I am using SRB V1.7.3 and Radeon 18.8.2.
I get 8700H/s per card but after a few minutes I start getting compute errors
Config: { "id" : 0, "intensity" : 230, "double_threads" : true, "old_mode" : true },
CC 1475 MC 1100
When I change the config to "old_mode : false" then I get no more compute errors but hashrate is only 6600H/s. Even dropping CC, MC and intensity much lower I still get compute errors when using "old_mode" : true
Any advice?

Old mode + new drivers are a no go. Old mode creates kernels well, the old way, which worked OK with drivers up to 18.6.1 + Added a gpu_conf only parameter 'old_mode'. With the changes i made in 1.7.2, that allow the creation of kernels on drivers newer than 18.6.1, algos that use a scratchpad <=1MB (litev7, mox, dark, upx) suffer from a hashrate drop on Vegas (maybe others too, i didn't test). So if you set this parameter to true, it will create kernel the old way, and the speed on these algos should be back. Don't forget, if you use old_mode : true, and compile the kernel on a driver newer than 18.6.1, you probably won't be finding any shares!

Hi, I downloaded your last version of miner and I can't start mining on fast algo with new adrenalin 18.12.2 drivers (driver is crushing), but can't anymore mining on 1.6.9 version of your miner, the same problem. I tried to input 6 amd ocl files (amd_opencl32, amd_opencl64, amdocl, amdocl12cl, amdocl12cl64, amdocl64) from recommended drivers 18.5.2 and 18.6.1 into both versions of your miner and I can't start mining...What can be the problem and what is solution?? I have radeon r7 370 card and the same problem is on 470 cards. Thank you forward.
Dok, I never saw a reply to this. Does your miner work with the "old trick" of just putting the above listed AMD drivers into your software folder instead of reinstalling AMD drivers for the entire system?

Thank Dok but even with the 18.6.1 I still get compute errors. I dropped the clocks and intensity lower and even upped the voltage without any luck. With "old_mode" : false" I get no compute errors but only have hashrate of 6600H/s Anything else I could try?

Can you put in your to-do-list the temp in log ?

You left out an important part from the log where the gpu is turned back on, because if it really reached 85c then it would need some time to cool down to 70c to turn back on, but if it was a false temperature reading for a moment then it would turn it back on in a few seconds. The temp in log will be in the next version.

Are you doing algo switching? If yes, there is a bug i am aware of, and going to be fixed in the next version.

Hi, may be someone can help me. I try to mine normal v7 algo, but hashrate is very low on rx480 8Gb. Haven or any other heavy algo seems to work perfectly, hashrate is close to 1200H/s, but normal v7 is only 990 H/s. What am i doing wrong ? I am using old drivers (blockchain), but they always worked perfectly before. May be i need to make some tuning in config file? Same problem i have while trying to mine normal v7 on Vega56  P.S. SRBMiner 1.73

This is strange. I added a 580 in rig and one gpu is the rig just did not work well.
[2018-12-24 11:45:40] GPU0 : 915 H/s [T: 53c, RPM: 2105, CC: 1155 MHz, MC: 2050 MHz][BUS:1] [2018-12-24 11:45:40] GPU1 : 927 H/s [T: 56c, RPM: 2555, CC: 1155 MHz, MC: 2050 MHz][BUS:5] [2018-12-24 11:45:40] GPU2 : 939 H/s [T: 46c, RPM: 1801, CC: 1155 MHz, MC: 2050 MHz][BUS:7] [2018-12-24 11:45:41] GPU3 : 929 H/s [T: 57c, RPM: 2581, CC: 1155 MHz, MC: 2050 MHz][BUS:8] [2018-12-24 11:45:41] GPU4 : 601 H/s [T: 54c, RPM: 2539, CC: 1155 MHz, MC: 2050 MHz][BUS:11]
I set the compute mode and they are use the same driver. Anyone get any idea what is happening? TIA.
