Having problems with modded cgminer... But everyone else seems fine.
Specs: XFX R9 280x getting 230Khs on Vertcoin. Normally gets 700khs on others, NOT EVEN 50%. I am using Windows 8
(Just FYI I'm not new to the mining scene)
I dont know if the cgminer was recently changed, but the -Intensity level CANNOT go above "-I 12" or the miner will go crazy with HW (hardware errors)
Everyones settings are with Intensities between 13-20 and saying they get 300Khs per card..... YES, I can get 300khs per card if I chose intensity 13-20;HOWEVER , the amount of HW (hardware errors) IS CRAZY!!
Also the thread concurrencies straight up just DONT WORK! I have to choose a concurrency around or below 6,000 for it to work. If I choose a TC like 8193 it will start the miner and say GPU 0 FAILURE, DISABLING
Here are my cgminer settings:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://vtc.poolz.net:3333 -u xxx -p xxx -I 12 -w 256 -g 2 -v 1 --thread-concurrency 6080 --auto-fan --gpu-memclock 1600,1600 --gpu-engine 1100,1100 --gpu-powertune -20,-20 --expiry 20 --scan-time 5 --queue 1 --no-submit-stale --temp-cutoff 85 --temp-overheat 80 --temp-target 75
Any help would be appreciated! NOTE: I have a gtx 770 as well normally avg 300Khs and getting 150Khs (That's 50%) I've messed around with the settings for a good 5hours... cant find any working method. So if youre going to tell me to remove or add something. Trust me I probably already did it.
I'm going to add some ram from my main computer to my mining rig see if more ram does anything... It shouldnt because its not utilizing any ram from what I can see

Are you sure you haven't tried my settings? I've been having the same problems. But when i lowered engine to 1000, memclock to 1490, powertune to -20 it could handle I13 and Still manage 355 kh/s

Need help please. I have a cudaminer set up on a VPS for mining dogecoin. Can someone explain how to install the Vertcoin miner for cuda onto my vps with Linux?
Thanks

I'm gonna say it one more time.
If you mine with a 280x set your GPU_MAX_ALLOC to 200 instead of 100.
You'll do 350ish instead of 270-300.
Doesn't have to be that way mate, my 280x's are doing 355 with the settings i posted above. Then you're one of the lucky ones. Windows or Linux? Windows. If you've got 280x's yourself try these settings out. Working like a charm for me. setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 COLOR 0A C:\vertminer\cgminer.exe --scrypt -o Server -u Username -p Password-w 256 -I 13 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-engine 1000 --gpu-powertune -20 --gpu-memclock 1490 --thread-concurrency 8193 That's the thing. i don't run windows rigs. i needed 200 on my linux rigs to get the normal kh/s (350-360) Yes, the same issue. Can't get more than stable 230khs per core on 7990 on linux.

I might add, i've got the MSI R9x 280x gamer 3gb. Seems to be giving the most kh/s from the 280x series so you might see a little difference

I might add, i've got the MSI R9x 280x gamer 3gb. Seems to be giving the most kh/s from the 280x series so you might see a little difference That's not the initial problem though. My problem is the Intensity and the TC. Ok here's what happened with your settings and anyone else's http://gyazo.com/5c0e884e75cdc03c3e2fdc39bfc32094The reason its failing is because the TC is too high. So I lower it to 6080 and it starts running. HOWEVER, then comes the problem with intesity levels. Anything above "I- 12" with gives me tons of HW Also yes I agree there should be a difference from my card and your card, but my card is normally 700khs it should ATLEAST hit 300khs (not even 50% yet). 350Khs would be my 50% mark Edit:I took your settings and lowered the TC to 6080. I am getting a solid 320Khs but the HW is going crazy Here's the screenshot (running for 20seconds or so) http://gyazo.com/c18d54fafbf80a9b0cb4fea4a1baeee6Should I just ignore the HW? I know I probably shouldnt but there's no way around this... If I lower the Intensity to 12 it works fine no HW, but gets 230Khs Edit:hmm the HW actually have seem to gone down from what I was getting before. Im only at 90 HW after a few minutes and NO rejected shares. Is it worth ignoring guys? Or should I never let it have any HW?

I'm currently testing on an r9 270x. Can't get a hashrate over 90 kh/s and WU: ~80/m without a massive number of HW anything over intensity 10 only produces HW and anything over thread-concurrency: 1024 will give me error -61 and the miner won't start at all my current conf: setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 "scrypt" : true, "gpu-engine" : "1140", "gpu-memclock" : "1500", "intensity" : "10", "gpu-threads" : "2", "thread-concurrency" : "1024", "lookup-gap" : "2", "worksize" : "256", produces only 75 kh/s stable for the usual scrypt coins, I'm getting around 450 kh/s so 75 just seems too low, pls help

finally here it is vertminer-0.5.3 releasedwindows build: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5n70hj3izjj64y1/vertminer-0.5.3.zipgithub source: https://github.com/Bufius/vertminer-gpu.gitrelease notes: Version 0.5.3 - 2 February 2014 - changed automatic TC calculation (again but still not finished / perfect...) - increased max intensity to 21 - shaders are now used for intensity calculation --> option shaders is set: intensity calculation tries to align to shaders count (can increase performance but also decrease with low intensity) --> shaders NOT set: old cgminer intensity calculation is used - opencl changed to keep speed with adaptive nfactor - introduced first time dependent nfactor changes in code (not finally done yet) - fix for ADL with R9 cards
Important: the automatic TC calculation is only performed if you do not set TC manually and this is only an estimation what could be the best. Manual tuning TC is in most cases the best you can do. Copy from the main thread: Hi, just so you're aware, I'm getting around 100kh/s less with this version compared to 0.5.2 on 280X (both of them)! My config is the same: del *.bin setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 vertminer.exe --scrypt-vert -o stratum+tcp://vtcpool.co.uk:3333 -u x -p x --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1460 --auto-fan --gpu-fan 30-85 --temp-target 80 --temp-overheat 85 --temp-cutoff 90 0.5.2 ~ 350kh/s on 2nd card, ~ 280kh/s on card connected to display 0.5.3 ~ 250kh/s on 2nd card, ~ 200kh/s on card connected to display

Hi! Would you mind leaving a step by step tutorial? I really dont know what im doing wrong (im into mining for a pretty long time now, but i cant get this one to work). I use the R9 280x aswell, but it looks like i forgot something... whenever i open the application, the cmd window closes almost instantly :S Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi, I have Asus R9 280x Dc2t
Card is underclocked from 1070 to 970 and from 6400 memory to 6200 and iam having about 335Kh/s and no HW errors! With these settings:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 (here you copy past what you find at "getting started" in any pool your choose) --thread-concurrency 8192 --intensity 13 -g 2
I was getting HW errors all the time with anything i tried until i put max alloc to 200. Then HW stoped and everything works as supoused. It does sligthy above 50% of what i get in normal CGminer on other altcoin pools.
- VERY IMPORTANT (at least for r9 280x) as someone allready mentioned is setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 (hope you know where to copy/paste it) - it is modified Cgminer, you are gona have 50% of normal Kh/s and it is supoused to be like that. - my card is underclocked to drain less power, with higher settings you are gona get higher hash rating.

R9 270x -->205KH setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 .... -g 1 --lookup-gap 2 -w 256 -I19 --auto-fan --temp-target 84 No HW and no thread-concurency needed, default timings not for me, hashrate shown is ~200 kh/s with those flags and default settings in afterburner, but all I'm getting is a rapidly increasing number of HW and no accepted shares. Also overclocking this just got me a bluescreen I'm using the modyfied cgminer from the main thread
