[JCE]Fast & stable CN/v8/Heavy/Tube/XHV miner, CPU+GPU, Vega56 1800+ RX580 1200+

[HardKano]

I have a problem with 033b7.

I use windows 10 latest version with everything updated and radeon 18.9.3 with 6x rx 580. I mine an Cryptonight Heavy coin.

When i start 033b7 with same configs from 032q, The GPU 0 dont mine and hang forever. other GPUs are slow and the machine is slow.

I stop the 033b7 and start 032q and ALL run super smooth and no lag.

[Iamtutut]

I noticed that speed start to flactuate after recieving new job... Maybe it's nicehash problem...

Why didn't you say so? i've a special sync for nicehash, with dedicated netcode (Nicehash is a lot more netcode-aggressive than other pools).
Please try on a normal pool, if it gets stable, so here's the problem.

Maybe SRB doesn't have that nicehash special, so in this precise case, it avoids the problem.
I'm preparing v8, which will be like -sync, but :

done, online is the 0.33b8 GPU

Crash on old HD cards fixed (was a typo in my old card's code)
Light optim for modern cards on Heavy/forks

edit: ok I found my bug on Nicehash netcode, but too late to fix in b8, that will be for b9
meanwhile please test on a normal pool

3750,69H/s with my usual setup on the 1st try, never had this fast on startup, it broke my 3735H/s record.

From 032G to 0.33B3 and above, I had to lower my mem cloks. Still, 0.33 (whatever version) is faster.

[JCE-Miner]

please update to the b8, and also try to lower the multi_hash in your config, the recent version may have a lower optimal value.
Please at least tell what coin you're mining.

It would be great if your miner could support socks proxy the same way cpuminer does with the -x cli option..

You quoted a very old post, but i've a problem: security. I could support socks, tunnels, proxies etc. but it would ease to turn JCE into a botnet/trojan, and so far i still see more potential threats than potential improvement.

No go with 33-sync on HD6990. It initialize all threads. Set difficulty from the pool and soon after that miner crashes without any error. Windows is just closed. This the first time when your miner does not start at all.

fixed in b8

Is your miner open-sourced, available and constantly updated on GitHub/GitLab/etc?

Open : no, as stated in the doc
available : yes, you have download links in first topic
constantly updated on GitHub (binaries only): this time i release almost every day, it should be enough i think

Will try that. BRB with an answer

[JCE-Miner]

HD6000 is one of the few cases were you should stay on previous version, i haven't set-up my rig yet. Please tell me what exact drivers and config you use on your cards so i can somehow bench on my own HD6950

No clue yet, i droped the multi hash to 800 (from 864) and my cards take 6.5gb instead of 7.2gb. Still my GPU 0 is loaded, clocked and dont hash. And the computer is slow. Will try other things later.

[JCE-Miner]

do you have an Intel GPU or IGP?
Maybe you're using it by mistake, the 0.33 series enable Intel gpu/igp by default (previous version didn't)

I didn't change the intensity but the memory clocks. I had GPUs up to 2100MHz (both V7 and Heavy), now it's 2040MHz (3) and 2030 (1). Speed is much better.

My display IGP is the Vega 11 cores from the Ryzen 2400G, using 2GB and I'm not GPU mining with.

Yes! It's only on nicehash! I changed pool to usual and voila! Max speed after several seconds after start!
JCE, make fix please! I can't waiting! )))

[JCE-Miner]

keep cool bro!
One release per day I said, not two.
Fix planned for tomorrow, and i'll remove the manual warmup to make it automatic, the fixed hashrate is now a superset of the old warmup. Then i go back to CPU version, i've some optims to apply.

[HardKano]

Maybe you're using it by mistake, the 0.33 series enable Intel gpu/igp by default (previous version didn't)

Yes i have an onboard intel GPU. Will test it later. I imagine its by default the index 0.

[JCE-Miner]

very, very possible.

I'm wondering if that idea to enable Intel by default was a good one... it caused a lot of troubles, and despite it's explained in the doc, nobody read it.
I won't cancel it, it would re-invalidate the new configs. Just i'll make a more explicit statement in the first post.

[HardKano]

I used the probe and yes GPU 0 is now the Intel onboard. Thanks guys !

[HardKano]

WOW JCE !

From 032q to 033b7 here is the diff in the hashrate stats :


Mining Cryptonight heavy algo :

RIG1 (6x RX580 8gb gigabyte) : 6400 to 6900 !!!
RIG2 (6x RX580 8gb sapphire) : 6700 to 7300 !!!

I use 2 thread with 880 multi hash each thread.

May be, just add a BIG RED WARNING at the start of the miner if any Intel is detected?

multi_hash 944 should be better result.

just want to give another solution by adding another parameter like --ignore-igpu then it will work with old config.

Will test it in few days if all is stable. Just made the last windows build 1809 update.

Best release so far, great work dude
