x11 = 11.4mhs
x13 = 4.2 mhs
keccak = terminated
nist5 = terminated
neoscrypt = 125 mhs
whirlpoolx = 102 mhs
qubit = 11.1 mhs
quark = 14.6 mhs
lyra2rev2 = 11. 9 mhs

AMD XFX HD7970 3 gb

These numbers are all very good, with the exception of neoscrypt -> this hash rate is wrong, neoscrypt should give a few hundred Kh/s, not Mh/s.

Did you try this? -> delete all *.bin files in the "..\bin\sgminer-5-2-1-neoscrypt" folder and run runme.bat in the same directory. Do you see a speed of few hundred Kh/s (like 0.100 Mh/s)?

If you still getting 100+ mhs on neoscrypt, then neoscrypt is obviously completely broken on win 10 (+some combination of drivers most probably). In this case open config.json in NiceHash Miner folder and enter

"BenchmarkSpeed": 0.0,

in the "Name": "neoscrypt", configuration section. This will effectively disable neoscrypt.

Thats what it looks like with the .bin file. running just the runme.bat.. Takes like 15 seconds to get to that screen tho from this one

 Then it goes black for about 10 second then starts with the pool url isnt reachable.

same results with or without the bin file.. Also same results by removing those two amd files out of the directory.. I have norton disabled as well as allowing each instance of sgminer in each folder their own rule.. All other coins mine and are able to reach the network. neoscrypt only one with issues..   ill help you guys out any way i can..  be nice to have them all working.

when running both CPU and GPU mining, when all CPU cores are being used it drops GPU hashrate, is it possible when X less CPU threads are being used, the GPU miner to have affinity to use only those free X CPU cores.

well i may have a solution for you.. Set the x less cpu to one>>(EDIT:>>I got to thinking about this and you  probably wont need to set the x less cpu. Windows will override it anyway). Then start the mining with both cpu and gpu.. then goto your task manager.. if windows 10(windows key + x) (All other should be ctrl-alt-esc) then more details at bottom rightleft of TM.  then click the details tab at the top of TM.. Then right click your sgminer.exe and set affinity to say processor 4. and uncheck all the rest. then goto the cpu miner and set affinity to only use the rest 1-3  uncheck 4 since it is going to run the sgminer only..

Best Regards

Got Nicehash running, Windows 10, latest SDK, 12.7.1 drivers, deleted the two amd files out of the 3 sgminer folders, ran precise benchmark. Both Cpu and GPU seem to be hashing but my card doesn't seem to be taxed as it's quite cool, I've had no shares submitted with neoscrypt, I was just curious if that's cause I'm not hashing fast enough to get a share before a block is cleared or something else.. A little help would be appreciated

You probably mean 15.7.1 drivers, not 12.7.1 drivers, yes?

This hash rate is wrong, neoscrypt should give a few hundred Kh/s, not Mh/s.

Try one more thing -> delete all *.bin files in the "..\bin\sgminer-5-2-1-neoscrypt" folder and run runme.bat in the same directory. Do you see a speed of few hundred Kh/s (like 0.100 Mh/s)?

If not, then there must be another joyful combination of issues with neoscrypt + amd drivers + Windows 10 ...

Right right on the 15.7.1 not 12, it dig create a bin on running runme.bat, still no dice on shares. Did as you stated about Benchmark: 0.0, restarted, still fired up neoscrypt and reset my benchmark settings.

I did "Benchmark: 0.0", "Skip: true" it liked that, and fired up sgminer general currently submitting lyra2 shares @ 3.377 MH/s Thanks for your help, and glad to guinea pig any suggestions or builds to fix neoscrypt.

@NiceHash

can you add port with diff 1 - scrypt-jane for GPU miners?

Hello,

A new version of NiceHash Miner has just been released. The new version 1.2.1.0 brings highly optimized AMD GPU mining for popular X11 (+100%), Quark (+50%) and Lyra2REv2 (+200%) algorithms on AMD Pitcairn, Tahiti and Hawaii GPUs along with some additional new features and bug fixes. The significant boost in X11, Quark and Lyra2REv2 algorithms are shown here when mining on four GPUs: R9 280X (Tahiti), 7950 (Tahiti), R9 290x (Hawaii) and 7870 (Pitcairn): https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=news&id=53

This is mandatory upgrade for users with AMD GPUs. After upgrading to this release re-run the Precise benchmark if you are using AMD GPUs. And remember - NiceHash Miner is a truly easy-to-use Windows software that will quickly turn your PC, workstation or server into money-making machine. Detailed description, application options and even full source code is available on the GitHub page.

Go ahead and get it here: download here!


Best regards,
NiceHash team

There is a linux version ?

there is no linux version - unless someone can port the code ...

so if anyone knows how to do that - we would all appreciate it ...

i would be happy to do the compiling and testing with who ever is willing to port ... its all open source code anyway ...

[gold368]

not auto up and down

[Dualshock]

Why it so laggy ? very very slow respond, and always show me notif: "Nicehash Miner requires internet connection..... pls check your internet connection...".

I have NO antivius, NO firewall, already disabled Windows firewall !

My rig:

4 x AMM HD7950
4G RAM
Windows 7 x64bit
GPU Driver version 12.3

Is driver version problems ?  I'm lazy to reinstall driver !

Thanks for support !

1. It keeps restarting to go from Lyra to Lyra. Why doesn't it just stay on Lyra

2. I looked in config.json file and all coins have thread concurrency 0 except neoscript which is thread concurrency 8192. Tried different Lyra TCs:
--thread-concurrency 0 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 1

Code:

GPU 0:  59.0C 1484RPM | 4.637M/4.191Mh/s | R:  0.0% HW:0 WU:9.917/m xI:256

--thread-concurrency 8192 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 1

Code:

GPU 0:  65.0C 1489RPM | 5.501M/5.539Mh/s | R:  0.0% HW:0 WU:21.988/m xI:256

--thread-concurrency 16384 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 1

Code:

GPU 0:  68.0C 1490RPM | 5.941M/5.840Mh/s | R:  0.0% HW:0 WU:22.097/m xI:256

3. Why is --gpu-threads 1
--thread-concurrency 16384 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 2

Code:

GPU 0:  57.0C 1477RPM | 2.184M/2.375Mh/s | R:  0.0% HW:0 WU:9.331/m xI:256

--thread-concurrency 8193 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 2

Code:

GPU 0:  54.0C 1478RPM | 1.738M/1.976Mh/s | R:  0.0% HW:0 WU:6.696/m xI:256

4. Why is worksize so small at 64
--thread-concurrency 16384 --worksize 64 --gpu-threads 2

Now it's crashing  

BTW, I read this thread but it raised more questions than it answered.

[Miasma]

Edited config file for the nth time and now it's crashing:

Code:

Can someone post a bat file for 280x Lyra2REv2 i get only 8 MH with a 280x Toxic version

Thx in advance

[bobben2]

Hi Nicehash

I installed the new miner and started the  runme.bat under sgminer-5-1-1-optimized folder after I
added my BTC address.
When sgminer starts it says "waiting for work to be available from pools"
and this keeps repeating every 5-10 second, and the hashrate goes up and down quite a bit.

I tried putting all the 3 different pools first in the list in the sgminer-fixed.conf file, rebooting the machine
each time.
Windows 7, amd driver 15.7.1,  One R9 280X card.

[Miasma]

Strange, I have 4 PCs mining axiom and lyra all day. Each has its own worker name. Three of them show up on the stats page for axiom and the fourth appears only on axiom. It seems stats only credit one or the other but not both 

[dygus]

Why it shows my only 8.9mh/s on x11 for 280x. It should be 11

[Eliovp]

Fury X does 20Mhz on X11, 390X does 17Mhz. Great job.

[maokoto]

Sounds like a good cloud mining service. If I rent hashing power... What is the minimum to withdraw my earnings? Do the mining earnings withdraw automatically or on demand?

Thanks

nicehash Thank you!
Bug: sgminer-5-1-0-optimized freeze while x11 mining. Bug is floating, sometime after 3 hours mining, sometime after 20 minutes mining.

[bobben2]

I am not able to get the Nicehash sgminer going.
It seems like it doesnt connect to the pool.
I can telnet the pool and it replies.  
I am running the runme.bat under the sgminer-5-1-1-optimized folder.
This is on Windows 7, one 280X, driver 15.7.1.  
I only changed the user in the sgminer-fixed.conf file.

Make sure you dont have a space at the end of the server URL after port number. Hard to tell from the log but it almost looks like there might be an extra space there.
