[losthymns]

Use cgminer 3.5.1. AFAIK anything above 3.5 doesn't support scrypt anymore.

3.7.2 and below support Scrypt.

Okay i got that but and idea on a config file for two xfx r9 280x running in crossfire?

[nairb131]

Do not run them in crossfire. They will run slower over all if you do. Run them as two separate gpus.

Okay will do.

Its real easy.. Google search.  Its one thing to ask for a tweaked file after you've tried to get yours maxxed out.. its another to say I'm just plain lazy and don't know how to operate a search engine. This is what I typed.

280x cgminer config.

This list pretty much tells you every config possible:

this is my linux config (no kernel needed for winbloze)

"intensity" : "13",
"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "scrypt",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"auto-fan" : true,
"gpu-engine" : "0-1000",
"gpu-fan" : "0-87",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192",
"log" : "3",
"queue" : "3",
"scrypt" : true,
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"

Here is my current config, as well as what the error is that its giving me. What am i screwing up here?

This is my config for my two R9 280x saphirre : -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192

No OC and no crossfire

I get at least 1,350mhs with this

Try with just one pool with this :

cgminer.exe -o yourpool:yourport -u yourlogin -p yourpass --scrypt -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192

Yeah but my miner isnt even starting up? Like idk what's going on with it. Teach me your ways, or post up everything your using and ill just copy you and see how she runs? It will be somewhere for me to get started.

I edit my previous post

Try with just one pool for test, i'm running on cgminer 3.5.0

Okay sweet and is that just a exe you set up? or is that your actual config file, i though you needed all that other stuff in there right?

This is just a bat file, you can run it with the run command. This is my actual config file, i just add --failover-only to add other pool, but just with it your config will be run

ps : sorry for my bad english this is not my language

Its okay but i dont see your actual config file is their any way you can post it up so i can check it out. i think im messing something up in my syntax. It's almost like it's looking for a usb not  a gpu, it wont even open my gpu's

[alphateam]

no config file,  just run this : cgminer.exe -o yourpool:yourport -u yourlogin -p yourpass --scrypt -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192

and work like a charm for me, i dont set other thing like gpu engine and co

To explain a bit more what i do

Install win 8 pro
install catalyst for R9
put cgminer in my c: disk
and run the command line cgminer.exe -o yourpool:yourport -u yourlogin -p yourpass --scrypt -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192

Thats all, i cant get you more thing, i do nothing more

edit : try to disconnect all usb you have, perhaps matrox dualhead or smething like this

Wow...i thought this was way more confusing, you just saved so much time for me thank you. What kind of temps are you seeing on yours?

[alphateam]

This is what i do,

there's certainly more accurate ways to do it, but for me it works just fine.

And to be a more specific, don't forget to specify where your cgminer was, if you not run the command line from your folder:

PATHFOLDER(like c:\cgminer)\cgminer.exe -o yourpool:yourport -u yourlogin -p yourpass --scrypt -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192


For temp, i have 69-70°c
