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

[doktor83]

With all these new cryptonight types, it would be better to keep that parameter in the pools file per pool.
Now it's not possible to keep all coin configurations in the same directory.

Config parameters probably also has to be different for different cryptonight variants. At least, that's the case with XMR-STAK and others.

yes, that is what --config and --pools parameters are for, so you can have all config & pool files in one directory, you just tell the miner which one to use.

Hi.Is it possible to run 2 instances of SRBMiner? I need to run some gpu's on heavy and some on V7,tried,but unsuccessful .
May be in next releases??
Thanks.

you can but i think your computer would freeze instantly

make 2 bat files, 2 config files and 2 pools files

[a1ternative]

Why? Already tried,and different versions,from diff locations,but got message "SRBminer already running  bla bla".Currently using claymore on v7 and srb for heavy.But I need 2 srb's .So how to implement this??

Thank you so much.

Figured out autostart of Devcon.exe and the start.bat with the blockchain driver.
Hashing at 2060-2070 on Vega 64s.
Auto reboots on fail and up and running automatically within 2 min.  

Rockin!

(Now just to play with tweaks on individual cards for less crashing)

[Littlegrand]

good additional options:

- "0,1,2,3,4,5" etc turns off/on gpu during mining
- add to the "s" command current OC settings (this will be usfule when awesome Miner adds support, hope soon)
- "p" - to cycle trough pools list on the fly during mining



if i come up with something more interesting I'll let you know Smiley

Good job so far

Ohh I definately second the 0,1,2,3,4,5....I have 2 GPUs in one rig that I have to shut off and on for them to hash at max speed and with SBMiner it means stopping and starting the program over and over.

does that means no hashrate drop on  vega?
Could you share a short how-to-do-it so other Vega users can set it up too ?

[goodminer]

Can someone give me an example of commands for simple bat file, this is too complicate with separate files config, pools etc...
Can we use single bat file to run this miner, like with Claymore for example?

why is it complicated ?

config.txt :

{
"cryptonight_type" : "normalv7",
"intensity" : 0,
"double_threads" : true,
"target_temperature" : 0,
}

pools.txt :

{
"pools" :
[
   {"pool_use_tls" : true, "pool" : "pool-address", "wallet" : "wallet", "password" : "x", "location" : "europe"},
   {"pool_use_tls" : true, "pool" : "pool-address2", "wallet" : "wallet2", "password" : "x", "location" : "europe"}
]
}

Then just run start.bat and off you go.

Ok, thank you, any suggestion what is the best config for r7 370 card and rx 470? Which worksize and intensity for all algos?
I tried cryptonightv7 with my r7 370 and max is 455 h/s, but my gpu is pretty freezing even if I lower intensity under default one.
How to set up other configs and pools for other coins and order miner to mine on it? I tried just like you said in description, but can't start miner, it said that can't start txt file.

tried changing name of .exe file?

You can start the miner with:

SRBMiner-CN.exe -c config.txt

write it to a .bat-file and start it.

Can you share your config please?
What are u using to auto re start?

[tenmoi]

Hi all,

What is worksize? I read it’s the local gpu thread, but how many of these are there in an rx 570?

Thank you.

For those running Vega.  Below are some of my settings a hashrates. These are on a reference 56 running 950 mem, non soft table mods. Stock bios on the newest drivers - non-blockchain.

All below running V1 on Stellite.

120/2/24/1892  *Locked Win - hard reset required after a few minutes then had to uninstall drivers and cards then re-install*

Appears worksize 16 was the sweetspot. Someone with modded cards running higher clockspeeds give it a run and post some results.

hmmm... I'll have to do some more testing... after seeing this...

I'm running stock bios XFX RX Vega 56 cards GPU 1407/950 MEM 925/900 with 85% pp tables running 6 cards pulling 1140-1160watts from the wall. Also running latest AMD Adrenalin 18.3.4 drivers.

112/2/16/1886 <--stable running V1 on Electroneum

If I turn the memory up to 950MHz then I can get into the 1920-1940 h/s but its not stable for all the cards. Now with the latest version and the logging is improved I should be able to narrow down the card or cards that are giving me issues.

Already mining 24hrs+, the local results are 4.4kh/s, and by the pool i'm getting 4.8-5.2! Really incredible miner, thanks 

[a1ternative]

tried changing name of .exe file?

Oh.Thanks,thats works!

[tenmoi]

After 7 hours I’ve got 9 hw errors and 17 block expires on nanopool. Is this normal? What’s most worrying are those hw errors. HWinfo reports no errors, though. Really appreciate your opinions.

[doktor83]

Who's got a hd 6950 and can test something for me?

expired block means the share you sent got old because the block expired in the meantime.
Hw error means gpu result did not pass cpu validation. So if you want try lowering intensity, or mem clock for ex.

So this means the shares were wasted and not sent to the pool? My local hashrate is 5057 and the pool reports the average hashrates between 4990 and greater than 5000. Is this ok so I can ignore the hw errors by srbminer?

THank you.
