Claymore XPM GPU Miner discussion

[user2]

I have a 3x280x rig which I haven't rebooted for a month.

Claymore, it looks like you are underestimating CPD. With over 600 blocks mined the deviation should be in a 5% range (√600/600 - right?). The difference between estimated and actual is more like 25%.

Claymore, it looks like you are underestimating CPD. With over 600 blocks mined the deviation should be in a 5% range (√600/600 - right?). The difference between estimated and actual is more like 25%.

650 hours is about 39K blocks (Primecoin creates new block every minute), 27 days is a very good time to collect stats, your accuracy is much better than 5%.

[grendel25]

What is this all about? XPM is alive and kicking! Most profitable hassle-free coin to mine at the moment on AMD R series cards.

+1
I've just moved to SOLO from Ypool (17 CPD).

What's the power consumption like on XPM compared to scrypt or XMR?  thx

Also, don't you have to have the wallet blockchain fully loaded and running on each rig you own in order to GPU mine XPM?  I don't mean to be a pisser... I'm actually reading/posting here because I'm interested but... But... so far doesn't seem "hassle-free".  But... i'm learning, teach me, wise ones.  thx thx thx

Sorry, I meant over 600 10+ chains found. Don't know why I said blocks mined, thought at the moment about something else probably.

[olajos]

I've almost finished v11 with good speedup for all cards.

Very good. thanks

Do you release version for drivers 14.x?

thanks

in between scrypt and XMR

no, one wallet is enough. You can connect all your rigs to it. I have a linux home server and I'm running primecoind on it.

How is xpm profitability vs xmr now that the dificulty is down?

I guess about equal. Which isn't surprising. People migrating back and force.

Glad to hear that.XPM's profit is stable right now.Waiting for new ver 

[Claymore]

v11 is ready, I'm finishing testing, so it will be available for downloading within 24 hours. It still requires Catalyst 13.12, I tried 14.6, but it is a bit slower.

Can we try puttin the DLL of the 13.12 drivers on the folder like the XMR miner?

Will some linux bins be available? thks

The best solution is to install 13.12, adding files from 13.12 does not work in some cases. But you can try if it works for you.

No, sorry, only Windows x64 is supported. May be later, but right now I'm too busy, also I don't like Linux

Could you share your bat or conf file so I can see how this networking gets done?  How do I "connect all" my rigs to one wallet?  and the same still remains true, one wallet has to be running, right?  Sorry, I need a little more to actually make this work.

Is there a setup guide somewhere?

Edit, I had downloaded some other miner in a different xpm thread... I'll look more in the read me here.  But if you have any .bat or conf to share that's cool too

what is the CPD on 290x with v11?

where ver 11??

[user2]

You are reading it now
I'm serious, all your answers are in this thread somewhere.

[grendel25]

yeah, was wierd trying to sort details between 3 diff threads.

[Claymore]

v11.0 is available:

- Improved speed by about 25-30% for all cards. Up to 12.0 CPD on non-overclocked 290X.
