[ANN] YACMiner - AMD GPU miner for Scrypt-Chacha, N-Scrypt, and Scrypt coins

[hieu1010]

Hello , YACMiner has a bug . When I switch pool (use Key P + S + pool) , N Factor will auto change to 16 .  Backup pool can't run correctly . Please fix it.

Is not a bug, use  --nfmin  --nfmax  --starttime for each pool

Thanks  . It's ok

I don't think YACMiner is actively developed anymore...

Correct, but I'm still here if something if hugely wrong...

agreed - these are set for each pool you specify

Hi , I'm mining scrypt jane N Factor =14
6970 speed 4.7 khs (core/mem 900/400)
7950 speed 4.2 khs (core/mem 1000/400)
Who can explain why 6970 run faster than 7950?

Post your configs for each - SC N=14 is memory intensive, so the faster GPU doesn't always win.  Also, you may be having hardware errors you didn't mention (or notice)

hello..
have someone good  setup for sapphire 280x vapor-x for yacminer..
or some miner for scrypt-jane

Thanks

And me with the same question !

Thank you so much !

Hello...
Anyone have config for r9 270...
 I only get 2.6KHz per card with this config :
--scrypt-chacha --worksize 128 -g 1 --lookup-gap 8 --buffer-size 1648 -R 3200

[meocon966]

Assuming you're at stock clocks, you expect more?

I run with 1100- 1500 .
I think it have a litte speed when compare with 7950 and r9 280x. Speed should be ~ 3-3.5kh .

[hieu1010]

r9 270 - 3.17 Kh/s - core/mem 1150/500
7950  - 5.03 Kh/s - core/mem 1120/500

using kernel mod , bought from platinum4.

r9 270 - 3.17 Kh/s - core/mem 1150/500
7950  - 5.03 Kh/s - core/mem 1120/500

Hey dudes,
What are you still mining that is NF-14 ??
 

LEOCoin is the only coin at NF=14 I know about

[Thirtybird]

OK Wolf0 I agree:
Weren't LEO developers, revealed to be lying?

No clue - I've barely heard of the coin.

Whether it is or isn't I couldn't tell you, but they've made some very bold statements that I chuckled at.  People are mining it though, and the top 15 at the official pool have a combined  reported 3,500 KHash/sec right now.  If a decent card pulls 5 KH/sec, that's 700 GPUs in the top 15 at one pool...

The hashrate thrown at it is mind boggling

this works, doesnt change to nf16. use starttime with pool, not below where gpu paramethers are.

Thirtybird,

  Thank you for doing the work on this miner.. I have been using cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.03 for the last week because I could not get yours going at first.  Now I have it running finally.

however, I will have a hard time monitoring all my rigs because the rpc response does not give the speed of the card.  

here is a dump of yacminer json response for one dev;

Code:

  [DEVS] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [GPU] => 0
                    [Enabled] => Y
                    [Status] => Alive
                    [Temperature] => 68
                    [Fan Speed] => 1540
                    [Fan Percent] => 30
                    [GPU Clock] => 1000
                    [Memory Clock] => 1250
                    [GPU Voltage] => 1.25
                    [GPU Activity] => 99
                    [Powertune] => 0
                    [MHS av] => 0
                    [MHS 5s] => 0
                    [Accepted] => 0
                    [Rejected] => 0
                    [Hardware Errors] => 0
                    [Utility] => 0
                    [Intensity] => 0
                    [Last Share Pool] => -1
                    [Last Share Time] => 0
                    [Total MH] => 0.1129
                    [Diff1 Work] => 1
                    [Difficulty Accepted] => 0
                    [Difficulty Rejected] => 0
                    [Last Share Difficulty] => 0
                    [Last Valid Work] => 1430008859
                )

I had trouble with with cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.03 version at first because it also reports 0 Mh as yours does. However, I was able to calculate speed in the following by dividing the  [Total MH] by [Device Elapsed]

json dump of cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.03

Code:

 [3] => Array
                (
                    [GPU] => 3
                    [Enabled] => Y
                    [Status] => Alive
                    [Temperature] => 72
                    [Fan Speed] => 1880
                    [Fan Percent] => 35
                    [GPU Clock] => 1000
                    [Memory Clock] => 1400
                    [GPU Voltage] => 1.25
                    [GPU Activity] => 99
                    [Powertune] => 0
                    [MHS av] => 0
                    [MHS 5s] => 0
                    [Accepted] => 2
                    [Rejected] => 0
                    [Hardware Errors] => 0
                    [Utility] => 0
                    [Intensity] => D
                    [Last Share Pool] => 2
                    [Last Share Time] => 1429778772
                    [Total MH] => 94.5894
                    [Diff1 Work] => 1409
                    [Difficulty Accepted] => 5014.3073666
                    [Difficulty Rejected] => 0
                    [Last Share Difficulty] => 2524.72717333
                    [Last Valid Work] => 1430012182
                    [Device Hardware%] => 0
                    [Device Rejected%] => 0
                    [Device Elapsed] => 342676
                )

If you could add the Device Elapsed to the dev call, or better yet the MHS av and MHS 5s, that would be awsome... and a tip of course would be included.

if cachecoin catches on, your miner could quickly become very popular and I am sure others would appreciate being able to monitor the rigs remotely.

edit:
  I starting using the miners summary elapsed time to guestimate the card speeds...  the raw intensity and other very important chacha settings are also not in the json

I am still trying to tune...  it is difficult to get ZERO HW errors..  seams like as soon as I go faster than about 700h i get errors after a few minutes

currently:

"rawintensity" : "1536",
"buffer-size" : "1856",  
"lookup-gap" : "8",
"gpu-engine" : "1000",
"gpu-memclock" : "1250",
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"worksize" : "64",

Hi,

there is not a solution of CPU mining "windows 7" for CACHeCoin?
