Why cant I have intensity higher than 12 on my MSI 280X? On 13 it starts getting hardware errors. -I 12 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 4096 Core clock is at 1030 and memory 1500. Undervolted to 1.050 mV.
Hashrate is around 230-250 KH/s.

It's because you have too low TC. I start to get HW errors as well if I go below 8192.

Does anyone have decent settings for R9 290x with Elpida RAM? I have 3 rigs with 3 cards each and am 'only' getting about 320kh per card
You could try: "intensity" : "13", "worksize" : "256", "gpu-threads" : "2", "thread-concurrency" : "14080", "shaders" : "2816", "gpu-engine" : "950", "gpu-fan" : "0-85", "gpu-memclock" : "1500", "gpu-powertune" : "20", "temp-cutoff" : "92", "temp-overheat" : "90", "temp-target" : "78", "auto-fan" : true, "expiry" : "0", "gpu-platform" : "0", "queue" : "0", "scrypt-vert" : true, "temp-hysteresis" : "3",
Yes, thats two threads and a low intensity (generally not recommended). But it works for me with two cards, rock stable, 0 HW errors at a hashrate of 420 Kh/s and WU 385/m per card. Additionally you get a low latency (less rejects). Took me some time to figure out, so if it works for you, I'd appreciate some VTC Vc3a3qjdSvUov5Ypm9dPFxyh2pbw3wy9NE

Hi all,
Is there already a built version of vertminer availaible for linux ? I tried to build it already twice on my rig but did not succeeded: "broke" my cgminer the first time, and impossible to restart my rig on the second attempt.

GPU: Sapphire 7950, 4L ref, (red and black case). MB: ASRock extreme6 RAM: 8GB CPU: intel i2500K CPU. MINER: vertminer 0.5.3 renamed to 'cgminer.exe' living in a folder within the cgwatcher folder. BIOS: stock, (I intend to flash it with an optimized Stilt BIOS and then gently OC for max, but conservative OC performance.) TEMPS: 20C ambient room temps, GPU fan at about 75%, GPU temps 65C. It's in a wide open box but no box fan blowing on it. I'm hashing at vert.bitcrush.info and getting less than 1% stale and rejected. I'm in the U.S. and pointed at their U.S. server URL. I've been testing for 48 hours. It hashes at 273 kh/s - 280 kh/s. When restarting or starting the miner, hash readings in vert/cg/miner report wild fluctuations up to 825 kh/s for a few moments and then swing down to 180 kh/s, eventually settling in at the a fore stated rates. This card and setup is of course completely stock. OBSERVATIONS of INTEREST: Running any applications that access the higher functions of the GPU, like watching a movie in VLC, or firing up a CAD program, will bring the hashrate down to 20 kh/s and stick it there. No matter if vert/cg/miner is then restarted with a .bat file at that point, or the miner is restarted from cgwatcher, no effect, the card is still stuck at low hashes. Rebooting then seems to reset the card and free up its resources and it goes back to premium hashing. Of interest, in MSI afterburner, I see that the memory use on the card is only 2054 MB of the available 3072 MB. My question is, why is it only using 1/3 of the memory on the card and might there be room for improvement, to get the card to use more of its onboard memory, or, is this a limitation of the algo, the "Scrypt N (Jane N)", algo? The only setting that might not seem to be stock or "nominal" is that powertune is set at 20, because it is a "boost" edition card. There is a slight difference when powertune is set to 0, or 10, the hashrate is reduced to about 243 kh/s. "api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1", "api-listen" : true, "api-mcast-port" : "4028", "api-port" : "4028", "expiry" : "120", "kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin", "log" : "5", "queue" : "1", "scan-time" : "30", "scrypt" : true, "shares" : "0", "auto-fan" : true, "auto-gpu" : true, "device" : "0", "gpu-threads" : "2", "gpu-dyninterval" : "7", "gpu-engine" : "925-925", "gpu-fan" : "50-93", "gpu-platform" : "0", "gpu-memclock" : "1250", "gpu-memdiff" : "0", "gpu-powertune" : "20", "gpu-vddc" : "0.000", "intensity" : "13", "temp-target" : "68", "temp-overheat" : "78", "temp-cutoff" : "83", "temp-hysteresis" : "3", "vectors" : "1", "worksize" : "256", "lookup-gap" : "2", "shaders" : "1792", "thread-concurrency" : "8192", "no-pool-disable" : true

To help anyone with Sappire Vapor-X HD 7950 3GB DDR5, the following are my settings and hashrate with Vertminer. I have 10 GB of RAM 2 sticks of 8 and 2 GB each running Win 7 64 bit Enterprise Batch file settings: setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 vertminer --scrypt-vert -w 256 -I 13 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-powertune 20 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1100 --thread-concurrency 10240,10240 I played around the intensite, thread concurrency a bit to achieve the following max hash rates. https://i.imgur.com/OgSFzhh.gifThanks. Any doge donations welcome! DOGE: DRxAxERbGJZKZhG8vEP6eQHX4TtWg6ws5S Damn, nearly 80C that's extremely hot.. unless you're water cooling.. Hey, thanks for the comment. I did not realize that I was running really hot when the ambient temperatures are very high!, btw, I am from Bangalore, India and probably one of the very few miners in India who has invested in Mining. (Well, pooled money for a long time to get a gaming system, and now it's serving a dual purpose and slowly paying for itself! with extremely high power tariffs!) Either way, with the high ambient temperature, it makes sense to run'em as cool as possible. After fiddling around with the settings some more and undervolting, the following are the temperatures. Might be useful for someone! Now I've got a bit more hash with cooler temperatures! yay! https://i.imgur.com/X7fjnKE.gif

I am new to this and it seems I got a loot of questions. Windows 7 64bit / Intel i7 975 3.33Ghz (4core) / 24GB ram / Nividia GTX690 1. cpu mining.I tried to run it on my cpu. Seems to work. Just waiting for some VTC to show up in my wallet, and some point... What I do wounder is about the performance that seems to be very slow. About 2.30 Khash/s on each core. My settings is as bellow: minerd.exe -a scrypt -o http://q30.qhor.net:9171 -O VdxmhSuCxq74tERtk75XQrdnWLsnftzNih/0.0001:xxx --threads 3 2. gpu mining.I got an Nividia GTX690. I have tried the 64bit version of VTC cudaminer, but it crashes... Got the same problem when tried DogeCoin and there it did go well with 32bit version. I then tried 32bit version and got great number, to great (2500Khash/s) and nothing in the wallet... My settings as bellow: cudaminer.exe --algo=sha256d -o http://q30.qhor.net:9171 -O VdxmhSuCxq74tERtk75XQrdnWLsnftzNih/0.0001:xxx 3. Move walletI installed my wallet on one computer, but like to move the wallet it self to a new computer. How to do this? Hope some one can give me some simple help as I am not that advance with this. Thanks in advance.

I'm testing this out now... I'm mining simply using the wallet "setgenerate true", and then "getmininginfo" shows "hashespersec" : 5097,..." I'm testing on my 2011 iMac with 3.4 Ghz Intel Core i7 (quad-core). How much faster I can go if I mine it on my GPU? (It is a AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048 MB built-in). Thanks!

I'm testing this out now... I'm mining simply using the wallet "setgenerate true", and then "getmininginfo" shows "hashespersec" : 5097 I'm currently looking at 170,000 hashes per sec on a $150 GPU. CPU mining doesn't make sense for Vertcoin. I'm testing on my 2011 iMac with 3.4 Ghz Intel Core i7 (quad-core). How much faster I can go if I mine it on my GPU? (It is a AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048 MB built-in). Thanks!
Pretty sure I've read that iMacs are unsuitable for mining. They look nice but don't have proper cooling. According to the numbers the 6970 gets for Litecoin you could expect ~200KH/s for Vertcoin, maybe a little more. Should net you a coin and a half a day at current difficulty.

CPU mining shows "hashespersec" : 5031,..." as reported by "getmininginfo" within the Vertcoin wallet.
This 5031 means the hashrate.
Using this calculator: [http://www.verters.com/vertcoin-mining-calculator] and entering that rate computes about 41 VTC per day. That is worth about $145 (per day) which is $4,350 (per month). Where is my mistake in my calculation?
And I'm not even using GPU mining.

^ this. Counting for inevitable/unavoidable losses due to computer/pool downtime etc you'd earn a little over a vertcoin per month - and that's assuming difficulty doesn't go up.

I really wonder how all R9 280x users can use a thread-concurrency of 8192 and above. If I use something between 8000-8200 my hashrate is down to 15kh and I can't use my pc anymore. If I use any other thread concurrency I will get HW errors. I get most accepts with 6500 but HW errors still fly high ... ideas are welcome, I have tried several configs now btw. Currently play around with setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://mine1.coinmine.pl:6350 -u xxxx -p xxxxx --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 6500 -g 2 -I 13 -w 256 --auto-fan --gpu-fan 30-85 --temp-cutoff 90 --temp-overheat 85 --temp-target 75 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1000 --gpu-powertune -20 --expiry 1 --scan-time 1 --queue 0 --no-submit-stale Ok I reject what I just wrote, 8193 seems to work now !

6870: setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 vertminer.exe --scrypt-vert [...] -I 11 -w 256 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 6720 http://i58.tinypic.com/2mffzm9.pngIt blocked my image, but I'm getting 2-3 kHash. I get 300 kH with normal scrypt. Note the extremely low speed. I've tried many variations of threads, gaps, work and intensity. The tc worked great on normal scrypt mining, but I've tried alternate values of that as well.

MSI R9 280x Gaming 3D -I 13 --thread-concurrency 8192 -g 1 --gpu-engine 1040 --gpu-memclock 1500 I am getting 295kh/s max, cant squeeze more no mater what maybe someone was able to get more on this card? I have (3) MSI R9 280x, getting about 350k each. Similar settings to yours, except my (TC) is 8193 and (E) on 2 cards is 1030, and for some reason my other card is happiest at (E) 1010

I've got similar problem with Gigabyte r9 280x. I can't in any way get over 300 kH/s. Well it would be nice if it reached something about 350 kH/s ; ) My current settings: -I 13 --thread-concurrency 8192 -g 1 Any ideas? And also one thing is bothering me, why I can't set 2 gpu threads (-g 2)? It's impossible in any configuration : (
