Hey Everyone,
I'm couple months into to the mining scene here, i started off with ultracoin & now have been mining vertcoin last couple weeks.
Over the last couple months i have learned quite a bit on how to configure verminer.. and probably spent several hour configuring my rigs... however over the last week or so.. i've had quite a battle configuring my cards.. during the first couple weeks i learned.. and at one point manages x amount of khashes per car
290x - 370kh/s 290 - 355kh/s hd7950 - 305khs/s 270 - 170kh/s
ATM .. this is what i'm getting now.. seems like once i touched the settings on once machine.. it was a downwards spiral with khs dropping on all my cards...
290 - 270khs 270 - 135khs hd7950 - 180k/hs 290x - havn't bothered trying..
bit in essance a significant drop in KHS...
i usually use 2048 increments from 8192 tc and up i always used 13 intensity with no issues.. but now i'm only able to run 11.. and struggle to get to 12 i without errors i've tried 8g.. 16gb ram with no luck.. i'm using btc h81 asrock boards... my risers.. are some powered usb/non powered/and cable powered.. depending on the power of the cards.. i've run a riser that should work properly
any help would be appreciated/recommendations..
just been a bit fustrated with this ..

Can you copy the whole settings? Easier to spot the error..

Just curious, I have been seeing for quite some time for all scrypt N why "setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 200 " (since gpuc) Do you really think any gpu will allocate 200% of whatever it is supposed to allocate ? Passed 100% there isn't any place for improvement that's what 100% means.

Doesn't it mean that GPU will use dynamic memory from RAM?

don't think it would be advantageous since it would slow down the miner (ddr5 against ddr3)

yeah 200% is useless, stick with 100%, you just need to adjust the core, lower it a bit, i was able to reach 450 with my old 290 and 290 card use 1 thread, they are not good with -g 2
