Primecoin GPU miner: 9.1 CPD on a 280x / pool / 2% dev.fee

[soulmann]

I have the same with 2 7970. Dev fee version. GPU load = 0. Calatyst 14.3. Mining time stays 0 forever.

NEW POOL 2%

http://www.primetimepool.net/get-started.php

works with free 3.00 primegpu and 4.00 paid version
xpt protocol

Primecoin doesn't have the same profitability factor as it did before. Has this miner even released yet?

who will tell it normally? 5 x 280x if not how i can fix it

Any thoughts on how to get this working with normal AMD drivers ? 13.12 will not work even with amd_ocl dll's in the folder. 14.6 does not allow to change clock speeds which makes it unacceptable and anything else is completely useless for mining....

does this work on 14.6? its crashing for me

yes it works the gpu harder so your volts might not be high enough for the clocks u have set

[taaku]

does restarting the mine..resets its block yield and or its fine if restart ....my only concern is that in xpm mining you only get proper reward after mining for around 12 hour..so lets say my miner gets restarted..does that mean i have to start the yield from beginning or its just that pool that determine for how much time i am connected.

[taaku]

my system config:
2 - r9 280x
14.6 driver
pool- ypool.net
the speed remains at around 16 cpd after 30 min the speed starts decreasing slowly ,gpu load is down

any idea?? what may be the problem .

Does GPU load jumps from 99% to 50%?
If this is the case, it needs more power, you can adjust it in MSI Afterburner.

It's completely fine to restart it - you don't loose anything.

Will you make a version also for old video cards 6970,5970,6990...? I have lots of them also others.

how to fix it, i change core clock to 1000 ,GPU still down 100% to 0%,then up to 100%

http://anty.info/primecoin-calculator/ doesn't work any more. How can I calculate my profit ? Example, I have 4 cards 280x with 35 chains per day, how many xpm coins I going to mine a day ? Thank you very much.

The owner of that site was a dickhead anyways.

I'm sure there is other calculators out there

hey guys,

quick question....is solo mining still profitable or is it better to go with a pool?
my rig is 2x 280x OC hitting 18.46 CPD

Same problem to me now.. Added more power with afterburner (+20), GPU load stays in 88-94 range but after 30min load falls..
Core clock 1070 and memory clock 1500.. Maybe I need to change these? (I have 3x R9 280x)

well its been months and no updates are u going to release the source

+1

I even have AMD radeon R7 240 and this miner doesn't work with catalyst 14.9 as miner timer stays at zero.

Also the latest catalyst omega file revision doesn't with any GPU Miners as it crash GPU!

I've used similar miner as shown in entire but for CPU and function better!

Until creator fix primecoin GPU miner then it best using the following miner:

claymore gpu miner

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=693680.0

That miner is slower and work!

What on earth would they do that for? Even though the open source miner is now faster, it would be stupid to open source theirs and allow any optimizations missing from the open source miner to be added.

Ok, Let's see:

Version 4 was posted on March 29, 2014 and primeGPU last post was July 29, 2014 and no promises being done to improve his miner!

The fact and my point is:

I don't think your question is related as the open source (version 1) is available and none for current version:

http://primegpu.com/

After three months miner's owner not being active, it makes sense for members asking updates.

Importantly even if source is fast enough and since not all members know about compiling via linus or win32-64, it seems to suggest you know something!
At this point Wolf0, why don't you take a look at source and try to compile it accordingly and test it?
