What is its hashrate? is it equal to poolside hashrate indication?

[andrucrypt]

Released 0.9.14 beta
- fixed small memory leak
- implemented watchdog, now miner will exit with code 1000 if gpu hangs in OpenCL kernel for more than 5 sec.(can be disabled with parameter --no-watchdog)

IMPORTANT: please redownload the build, if you downloaded it before this text appeared here.

Depends on card overclocking. My 1Gb versions do 750kH/s, some Chinese MSI 2Gb fakes - 800-900 kH/s. Poolside jumps around that values, yes. ccminer was a disaster for me, and the only solution to avoid a lot of "Low difficulty" shares was using 5M static diff for them, but even so hashrate was lower. Currently I'm running wildrig on them using static diff and strategy set to 1(seems to be the best option, but needs testing for luck value in different cases).

Thank you for you work and looking forward for proxy implementation !

And one more thing. Can you add up an option that enable or disable the videocard count check during mining initialization?
 Old miner begins to mine regardless of the number of cards. Yours stops if the actual number is lower than config setting. So let us combine it.

And one more annoying thing
Sometimes GPU hangs along with the miner and miner process can not be terminated unless the rig rebooted. Could you do something to such a case? Advanced watchdog with reboot.bat executing may be? But it would be much better to prevent miner process hangs at all.

Oh, sorry, forgot about a moment with proxy %) This needs some investigation, unfortunately I'm not familiar with this. Can you explain a bit more?(maybe PM me to explain better in russian ). What about configuration, I will check what can I do here.

Why my luck is always 0%? last beta .14

rx 480 cards

Is this happening only with 0.9.14 version? If so, can you please run it with --no-watchdog parameter? But luck equal to zero... seems like all shares are rejected, or something is too wrong with calculations %)

Ops, i found why my luck was 0%, i forgot in the .bat file to delete -l scratchpad.bin parameters left over by copy and paste, now all is ok but what it did do? shares where accepted...

Released 0.9.15 beta(sorry, only Windows build right now)
- improved watchdog, now it works separately and won't decrease hashrate for AMD's when use low intensity values
- improved scratchpad fail handling, now miner will try to reset it to state saved on disk and login again, only then redownload it if fail again
- added experimental parameter --opencl-force1x to support old hardware like Readon HD 7xxx

Oh, now I know where is a problem... will fix that in the next build You get 0 because of bug in code when --no-color used(manually set or automatically because of logging to file). What about luck, there is description of it in first post.

Your doing good ... my 2Gb 750ti's are doing the same as yours.  

I can't get the display to show the hashrate of my 2 cards individually.....only total hashrate. Any way to show them individually?

And how do I set the intensity lower for one card and leave the other cards intensity high? So I can use my computer.  Thx

Sometimes the miner closes itself when I want to run it, sometimes says this:



and sometimes works

Yes, I made a bug there... please downgrade at least to 0.9.14, and probably use --no-watchdog. I will build new version today with fixes. Also for future - use start.bat provided, it will rerun miner every time it closes(with watchdog it will close itself for restart if gpu hangs).

Hi, seems you are trying to use same configuration as for ccminer, and it works Anyway, you can set different options via comma separation, like --opencl-launch=60x256,30x256. What about hashrate - use option --print-full or press 'h' while miner works, it will print hasharte for all cards.

[andrucrypt]

IMPORTANT: finally released version 0.9.16 with critical fixes to 0.9.15 build. Please update. Now watchdog definitely should work. Also fixed low hashrate for nvidia's in some cases at start.

wow, u update so fast

Thx andrucrypt.... working great now.     Is --opencl-force1x command for amd only?  Just curious.

I was previously running 0.9.7 and getting rejected shares in the 3%-4% range which is not out of line.  However, now running both 0.9.7 and 0.9.14 the rejected shares have sky rocketed to the 10% to 10.5% range.  Just wondering what has recently happened? Occurs now on both my AMD 560/580 rigs.

Man, this is too high values. Even 3%-4% not good. Can you update to newer version? 0.9.16 should reduce a bit. Also, what intensity do you use?

Yeah, don't know why, but on Radeon HD 7xxx series(probably 6xxx and 5xxx too) it needs some different kernel and OpenCL 1.x
