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

[Bllacky]

I wish I could, but I don't see any log files being created like in the previous versions.

If you open start.bat you will see this :

REM LOGGING ENABLED
REM SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt --logfile %LOGTIME%

REM LOGGING DISABLED
SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt

if you remove the REM under the 'LOGGING ENABLED', and put a REM before the 'LOGGING DISABLED' part, you will get logging enabled.

REM LOGGING ENABLED
SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt --logfile %LOGTIME%

REM LOGGING DISABLED
REM SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt

Or if you have a custom start script use the --logfile parameter. It's all the same as before, just it's not turned on by default.

GOT it! Will report back with the logs.

Hi,

any plans to add AMDTweakTool or Claymore type of stripe to increase AMD cards hashrate ?

thx

lol !!

Those are for Vega, not RX cards, sorry needed to specify that!

I am done with 1.8.9, atm in the testing phase. It contains tweak profiles that can be used on rx 450/460/550/560 rx 470/480/570/580/580/590.
It is intended for already modified cards - to get out a little bit more juice, but of course it will work on stock bios too, but the performance is far from a modded vbios.

This will be a great update. Recently I use only SRBminer. And with such new settings it will be even better. Approximately when can we expect the next version?

I am testing it already on a few rigs, so if everything goes OK, i will release it tomorrow.

Not every card can handle the same intensity/tweak profile. So what you need to do is to test separately which tweak profile can you use on which gpu.
For that you need to use the 'gpu_conf' or set gpu's in cmd line.

Thanks for the answer Dok! so, the settings of my OverdriveNtool and even changing my Adrenaline Driver from 18.5.1 to 18.6.1 won't affect anything much to the hashrate right?

can you please tell me the recommended Base Intensity, threads and worksize of "gpu_conf" for Vega56 - CN-Haven algorithm to start tweaking with?
Currently I'm still using basic cn-haven config with "intensity" : 0

thank you !

can i please get the answer Dok? 112 Intensity with tweak profile 3 crashed my Vega56, sometimes even to BSOD. how much should i set my base intensity (for cn-haven algo) before setting the tweaking profile? also, is it mandatory to change the driver from 18.5.1 to 18.6.1 to see the increased performance on Hashrate? sorry for noob questions,  thanks

[Zoff]

Good day!
Tell me please, what speed should the card have 480-8Mb on algo litev7?

This happens shortly after the message "Precompiling program" ?
If not, describe is the miner crashing, or what is happening.
Also upload log somewhere so i can take a look at it ?

For Haven you should try this for Vega56:

Code:

"gpu_conf" :
[
{
  "id" : 0,
  "intensity" : 56,
  "worksize" : 8,
  "threads" : 2
}
]

No need to change drivers, 18.5.1 is ok.
Also add --preparedata to your start.bat cmd line, it gives a little boost on Haven for Vegas

Thank you so much for the reply and the tips Dok ! I will try it first. looking forward for your brand new SRBMiner Ver. 1.8.9 i have MSI RX580 8GB ARMOR and Gaming X Rigs ready to deploy.

Hi,

I've solved the stability problems by installing the latest Adrenaline drivers.
Since then, the rigs have been running flawlessly on monero.

However, speed has also gone down, from 455 H/s on my ageing 280X to 430-445 H/s.
The speed decrease is not so much of an issue, it's better to have the rig mining than to have them crash all the time and not mine anything.
Though I would be much happier if they still worked at 450 H/s.

I wish I could, but I don't see any log files being created like in the previous versions.

If you open start.bat you will see this :

REM LOGGING ENABLED
REM SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt --logfile %LOGTIME%

REM LOGGING DISABLED
SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt

if you remove the REM under the 'LOGGING ENABLED', and put a REM before the 'LOGGING DISABLED' part, you will get logging enabled.

REM LOGGING ENABLED
SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt --logfile %LOGTIME%

REM LOGGING DISABLED
REM SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv4.txt --pools pools.txt

Or if you have a custom start script use the --logfile parameter. It's all the same as before, just it's not turned on by default.

GOT it! Will report back with the logs.

V1.8.9
- Added tweaking profiles for RX 550/560, RX 470/480/570/580/590 - for some small fine tuning of existing vbios straps
- Profiles 1-6 for Vegas are now a little lighter, 7-10 stayed same
- Added embedded binaries for some gpu's
- Added parameter --nobinaries, use it to disable usage of embedded binaries
- Fixed some bugs in GPU detection code
- Added more info to log when using tweaking profiles
- Added watchdog for too many invalid job results, switches to next pool if more than 5 within the same connection
- Usage of external tweaking tool is now allowed, so you can now fine tune a profile even more if you know how
- Minor bug fixes


+ Added tweak profiles for RX 550/560, RX 470/480/570/580/590 cards, this is for already modded cards, but can be used also on stock vbioses.
In this case the performance will be much lower than with a modded vbios. This is more like just to get out a little bit more hash of your already highly tuned Rx gpu

+ Tweak profiles 1-6 for Vegas are now little lighter, because not every gpu can handle profile 10, right ?

+ Added embedded (built-in) binaries for Vegas & Ellesmere & Baffin gpus when using auto setup. If you have problems with using them, add --nobinaries to your start.bat

+ 'External tweaker protection' removed, because of multiple reasons, but let's stay positive and say this was done so you can fine tune even more

installed the V1.8.9, works but same as the last version, I have no increase on rx 570 8GB (mining XHV)

while downloading from https://www.srbminer.com it is still written v1.8.8

You need to use tweaking profiles to have some increase

now I see, tnx
there is an increase of ~3%, but will make some fine tuning during the weekend
good
