lolMiner-144 0.38 Preview, Equihash 144.5 for AMD & Nvidia, Linux & Windows

[Ballysto]

I can also confirm now that my Vega 56 works on Windows 10 using the newly posted kernel renamed as gfx900.bin.  I also had to downgrade to the 17.12.2 drivers, I tried the 18.5.1 and 18.6.1 with no success using either kernel.

[ivomm]

Edit: I found the option DEVICES. Again the miner gave 0 sols and restarted automatically endlessly, until I closed it, opened it again and began mining with 18-20 sols per card. This is for the rigs with regular 3GB Tahiti 280x

That would be half of a GTX 1080 hashrate (according to what I read above) which is quite amazing for such old cards.

Expected to be honest, as even on "old" equihash 200,9 they were giving 285-320 sols per card ... but using => 200W of power

By default 220-230W, but with a bios undervolt they consume 180W (incl. risers) according to the watmeter. Still too much, of course, compared to the 570 and 580 esp.with bios mods.

For my 280x's it works on adrenaline 18.x.x (windows 7), 17.12 (windows 10) and older crimson 15.12 (windows 8.1). Only for some reason (RAM issue, may be?) I have to restart the miner manually 2-3 times to begin mining. Speed is around 20 sols.

This morning I tested again. My RX 580 is working at 12 sols with accepted shares (adrenaline 18.x.x (windows 7)). All my 280x  give invalid solutions (17.12 (windows 10) and older crimson 15.12 (windows 8.1)). Those with 6GB even work at 70-ish sols which can't be true. 3GB work at 15-20 but never have accepted shares.

I get invalid solutions also on 280x and pool shows miner offline.

Yup, me too, i get invalid share from 280x and 7950

The miner for me on my two 7970s ghz edition Just flat out crashes my whole pc after a couple minutes.
Also does not show in any mining pool any activity ? Any tips or ideas

mining just fine with my 7950's i had to remove all the kernels in the 144_5 folder and left only the Tahiti.bin,does it crash with other miners ? it sounds a lot like a hardware issue,the card overheating,or the PSU not able to supply the requested wattage

Hi no all other miners are fine even the old equpiool client ran perfect. Cards DNT get hot at all.  Psu is a gold rated Corsair 850w.ill see what happens when I remove all the other kernals..

My miner doesnt work also, on some pools says invalid solution and no share is accepted, on some it shows share accepted but it doesnt show anything on the pools miner stats, i think its problem in the miner, if anyone finds solution how to mine BTG on new algo post it here, thank

Also have that problem on 2miners.com pool, we need new miner, or fix for all 3GB cards

[willycut]

There is a problem with failover pools, after 5 attempt it goes to second pool correctly but miner restart saying Device 0 is stuck, so the loop continues and never mine, if i delete the failover it works, so my thoughts are while trying to connect to failed pools devices are not hashing so miner after some time think device is stuck and restart...

tahiti (280x&7970) works perfectly with 10-12sol per card.
390 require a lot of virtual memory - 38Gb on 6 card.
why there is no overclocking effect?

i think u guys are using the wrong COIN in your config json..
If u go mine BTCZ u must also enter BTCZ in that config..

[matbz]

Works well in one windows pc.
In other windows pc with 3 GPU the miner stop and close with a OpenCL.dll error.

Can you put a intensity option? The GPU is al 100% and can work with pc while mininig...

Don't you have invalid solutions? Does the pool stats correspond to your hashrate? And last, why only 10 sols? My tahiti is at least 18 sols, but with invalid solutions. Not a single accepted share. My cards are not overclocked, but undervolted with bios mod. It seems that most of the people have the same isuue.

all shares accepted, hashrate on pool is correct + - , (1100/1500 on 1050mV all with StilitBios win8.1&win10 15.12drivers).
I do not understand how tahiti can give such a hash. My 290/390 give 14-17sol/s on this miner.
390 too all shares accept hashrate 14-17, but what with overclock(1150/1400) what without (1050/1600) hashrate does not change.
p.s. if you see message opencl memory errors and reboot miner - increase the amount of virtual memory.
p.p.s. if you see stop your device (-4) run the second copy of miner in another window, but only for the card with which the first miner refuses to work. For example "DEVICES" : [1]

I get invalid solutions also on 280x and pool shows miner offline.

Hi there, may you share what driver you use? I will try to check why that one produces fault shares with the kernel

how to fix low difficulty share?

Single low diff shares can occur , but should be minority. If all are low diff shares some part of the miner does not work properly with your driver.


At all who have trouble with invalid shares:
Please share OS & Driver version. It seems my binary Kernels cause Problems on other then the blockchain drivers (whete they were compiled)


By the way: did anyone test with Nvidia how close to ewbf we are?
