-Then add the following commands to the prime-gpu.exe file bat: -address=127.0.0.1 -listen=0
-address=127.0.0 is by default, so it's redundant. -listen=0 - we're not using this, not really sure what it does (it's an option of the client we're basing our code on) |

If you're running teh client on the same computer as the server - no need to add any commands. ...and is my rig mining properly or not?
It definitely mines. And most probably it mines propery. |

It definitely mines. And most probably it mines propery. Restarted the computer (undervolted the cards) and started mining again without those flags. I'll keep you updated with my results. Where can I see the CPD numbers? |

Well, it mines!   Started 2 min ago...crossing fingers. Needed to do the following for it to work: -Run prime gpu server -Have my primecoin blockchain data and conf in the default directory (this kinda pissed me off since I have it in my D: drive...) -Then add the following commands to the prime-gpu.exe file bat: -address=127.0.0.1 -listen=0 Is that correct dev? EDIT: this thing seems to sip power btw...even with no undervolting it's doing 125-135w per 280X at 1020mhz core and 1500mhz mem. (downclocked it a bit, was at 1200/1750 in the screenshot) no need to run the memclock that high. it performs kinda the same at lower memclock...at least for me. |

Regarding the clock settings:
Performance-wise the best stable settings that we had for a single card during our tests were 1170/1500.
For Gigabyte OC and and Saphire Vapor/Toxic and probably for ASUS (we don't have them) 1150/1500 should be quite stable.
XFX, PowerColor and non-OC Gigabyte and Saphire will hadrly work above 1050-1080.

Yup, I downclocked to my 'mining' settings...I was running some benchmarks before firing this.

stable at 1200/1200 for vapor-x and 1100/1300 for msi 280xs. no significant difference between running 1200, 1300 or 1500 memclock, but the miner crashed if i set it at 1000. |

I've been mining for 6-8 hours now and still nothing. no blocks for the first 8 hours. restarted due to crashing, and a block 5 mins later. top lel |

-cpuusage 3 made my miner more stable regarding Pass-es and time.

I'll try that...
Using no flags at all now:
time 244
0 blocks
4258 passes
Will try clocking the core higher too.

If your current CPU load is less than 50%, adding "-cpuusage=5" (at the server) may add 3-4% in performance. |

Yup, it was around 50-60% on 4 threads...got an i7 3820.
Added that flag to the server and clocked the core higher, 1100/1500mhz.
EDIT: is that time variable an indicator of performance, estimated remaining time to block or what?
It's lower now, went from 1020 to 1100mhz core and added the cpuusage flag.
