Can we use "persistent_memory" in the CMD Line?

Doc, do we know why TR has such different power consumption compared to other miners? Are you working on this? Well, I hope something similar can be implemented in your miner too

The miner has stopped working bug is getting pretty annoying very quickly.

Modified the startup code from wildrigminer to run SRBminer. Can others with the "miner has stopped working" bug also test it out and suggest any other alternatives to this issue. start_miner.bat setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_MAX_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_MAX_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 @echo off cd %~dp0

No, but that parameter is anyways only used when old mode is enabled, and i think it became.. useless Doc, do we know why TR has such different power consumption compared to other miners? Are you working on this? Well, I hope something similar can be implemented in your miner too  We all know why, but we - the others - who don't have enough knowledge with GCN asm, probably can't do much atm.

How to write startup_script: -cclock, -mclock, -cvddc, -mvddc and run it? Thank.
First download a Claymore miner, then try those commands. I asked about startup_script.

I have rx550,560, rx470,480,570,580 4g and 8g. Vega56 and its working on every rig. Also i guess it works for the majority because this forum thread would be flooded with 'not working' messages.

You cannot mod the BIOS of a Vega 56, you can only modify PowerPlay tables for Vega. Alternatively, you can use Win10 and the latest beta version of OverdriveNTool 0.2.8beta1. Also, you can swap the Vega 56 BIOS with the Vega 64 BIOS. But you cannot mod a Vega BIOS.

I had an issue where my vega rig crashed after about 8-9 hours when I upgraded from SRB 1.8.0 to 1.8.2, I was using 18.5.1. After that I tried installing the 19.4.1 and install all the windows updates, and now it seems to be working as it should. However I do get a few shares rejected due to low diff, not really sure why though.

HEllo thanks for your reply, yes i meant swapping bios..do you know any drawbacks like high temperatures etc or all just the same, my problems is that im living in a country with high ambient temps so i cant bear to set the fans any higher already i have a vega fan headache.already using overdrive (older version) to config vegas everything seted up via vega mining guide and powertable

Because some reported 'random miner crashes not related to gpu crashes', i made a little tool as a workaround, until i find the bug(s) and fix them. This tool serves as a replacement for scripts you can set up to monitor the miner process and start it if it's not running. SRB-RESTARTEROnly 3 parameters : --interval value_in_seconds [def. is 10] Specifies how often to check is the SRBMiner process running --instance number Use it if you run multiple SRBMiner instances on the same machine, example is below You must use the following file naming : SRBMiner-CN-n.exe where n is the instance number --run filename [name of .bat file to run] Name of .bat you want to run if SRBMiner process in not running Note: Miner is considered 'not running' after 2 checks! Examples: 1. SRB-Restarter.exe [This will set interval to 10 seconds, and start.bat if SRBMiner process is not running. It will monitor for a process named SRBMiner-CN.exe] 2. SRB-Restarter.exe --interval 5 --run turtle-coin.bat [This will set interval to 5 seconds and run turtle-coin.bat if SRBMiner process is not running. It will monitor for a process named SRBMiner-CN.exe] 3. SRB-Restarter.exe --interval 30 --run start-heavy.bat --instance 1 [This will set interval to 30 seconds and run start-heavy.bat if SRBMiner process is not running. It will monitor for a process named SRBMiner-CN-1.exe] If you copy the whole folder from the .zip into SRBMiner folder, you have an example SRB-Restart.bat inside that will check for the SRBMiner-CN.exe process every 5 seconds, and run start.bat that is in the main miner folder (that's why the '..\start.bat', it means one level back). Link is on the first page or HERE

If you don't maintain the HBM2 temps BELOW 70 C, you will lose hashrate. I didn't not notice a huge increase in temps when swapping 56 BIOS with 64. Greater range for clocks and memory frequency increases temps proportionally. Before messing with swapping BIOS, I'd solve your temp problem first. In other words, why increase the clocks and frequency capability when it is simply going to throttle back?

Greater range for clocks and memory frequency increases temps proportionally. Before messing with swapping BIOS, I'd solve your temp problem first. In other words, why increase the clocks and frequency capability when it is simply going to throttle back? Totally agree; I've found success with keeping core volts below 950, memory to 800, fans set to 3200 min with a 4900 max, and set target temperature to 66 (you can even try lower if you don't mind the loud noise of the fans). I've also had cases where the cards run much hotter for no apparent reason and my only guess its a radeon software or driver issue whereby it's ignoring my minimum core volts, driving more volts through the card and making them hotter. A reboot and disable/enable in device manager for each card has fixed this, and then they run 10c cooler until it mysteriously happens again. I'm on a mixed rig of nvidia and amd, and often wonder if that's not causing me some weird issues. Cheers

Figured I'd post some settings I have bee successful running on my 6x mixed vega rig. I previously ran srb 1.8.0 with amd driver 18.5.1. But after I updated to 1.8.2 my rig just kept crashing and srb stopped running.
So I used windows update and updated everything. And after that I did DDU followed by just installing the graphics driver (19.4.1) and not amd settings++. Something to keep in mind here, is that PPT is no longer required as I understand.
With ambient temp of around 21c and these settings, my rig is running stable with temps within 50c-55c while fans are running at ~3200rpm / 60%. I have not been able to check power draw of this rig, but considering the low temps/fan rpm it should be pretty low.
vega56 ~1850 h/s vega64 ~1950 h/s
At some later point I will test power draw and reapply thermal paste. OverDriveNtool profiles. ( OverDriveNtool version 2.8.1 beta is needed )
