Can please someone give link to catalyst 14.3?

14.4 works with this miner, just download at AMD's website.

Yes, but 14.4 sucks when you want to switch back to SGminer. I just experienced first hand
I'm now going to give 14.3 a try.

Thanks for the link!

The pool is back up running now

I made a blockchain backup so this doesn't happen again.

EDIT: Also i made new version for you guys having problems with i5 and i7:

Hopefully this fixes it, i've compiled GMP with generic i586 assembly in this version.

cool! Hopefully you will put in some ddos protection as well

Seems like the Intel Core cpu's have a GMP issue.

I'm having no issues like that with AMD or Core2 Quad cpu's.

Hi madMax,

FYI, 270 works, not sure the clock rate it is using now but it gives ~2.2CPD each.

Question: how should I estimate the payout? The 2.2CPD is for 10ch I believe, so how should I expect # of 8 and 9ch per day?

Also is there any formula to give those payout for 8/9/10ch shares? I expected it is something related to the probabilities of getting each (after 10% for pool).

I'll test run it for 1 or 2 days, before I switch more rigs to your pool.

Thanks

The number of 9ch should be ~10x more than 10ch and the number of 8ch should be ~100x times more than 10ch.

The formula is pretty easy: (sum of XPM mined last 24h)*(1-fee)*sharepercent/(number of shares found in last 24h)

Where sharepercent is: 0.3 for 8ch, 9ch and 0.4 for 10ch. This gives a sum of 1.0 for these 3 chain lengths.
And the fee is: 0.1

Have you tried the rc1 version?

Thanks! Will try it asap.

I am going to try this tonight, I will compare to a similar rig on primegpu.

[XPM-guru]

With latest version and 14.4 drivers, it just locks up, freezes.
it was working good with 13.12 drivers and getting 3.9 cpd pre gpu.
what am i doing wrong?

Rollback driver and you're good?!

[gilad215]

i got 2 rigs with 5x280x with pentium haswell and 14.4 driver.

both do around 18+- CPD. 2 gpus do 4cpd and the other 3 do 3.3+-
i guess its a cpu bottleneck? overall great performance! 2x290 give me 10cpd!

and a request, please add a page for each user on the pool site so we dont have to input our xpm address each time we check our stats.

thank you! great work

Yeah, that didnt help...

[madMAx510510]

Guys, i'm gonna have to shut it down for a while.

I'm getting the same error again: ERROR: CBlock::WriteToDisk() : OpenBlockFile failed

Seems to be a bug i need to fix.
