Not more or less reputable than the binaries I provided. Also, did you apply the fix to gen_stratum_work to fix the uninitialized stack variable?

[DMaster2008]

What about the conf file? What if it's using the darkcoin kernel still?

You can see the conf file above (in my first message). It does not contain any kernel specification, the kernel is specified in my command line only.
The bin file name is "x11modHawaiiglg2tc24550w64l4.bin", so the kernel is x11mod.

Update. The girino's miner gives me 3.76 MH/s, if launched with -X 240,1 instead of -I 15,8. At -I 15,8 it gives the same 2.72.
But your binary (and the one from cryptomining-blog) cannot run at xIntensity of 240 - driver crashes instantly.

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

I will look into the issue, but when it comes to OpenCL, I don't promise anything.

I loaded this version in my Windows 7 miners tonight and I am seeing about a 28% improvement in hash rate even without any tweaking.
This is great!
lasybear and Remember... tips coming your way.

Win7, work !!! Thanks

sgminer.exe --kernel x11mod -o  stratum+tcp://blablabla -u xxx -p xxx --shaders 2048 --thread-concurrency 8193  --intensity 15 --

worksize 256 -g 2 --gpu-engine 1130 --gpu-memclock 1500 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-reorder

3040 kh/s sapphire 280x (the old was 2200 kh/s, change only -I from 13 to 15). I try to up engine with 10, give me 20 kh/s, but with the old miner drivers crash on 1200 engine, here is 5:30 am, now will go to sleep, tommorow will try . Thanks and cheers !!

How would you install this on PIMP?  If someone could give step by step instructions I can send them doge coins, or paypal for their time.  I do not have a lot but will try to make this worth your effort. I really could use the extra hashing power because I really need those extra coins.

Thank you so much for your time.

Really nice work guys! LASY N NOVEMBER!, I went out of my way to shut off that 2% donation on the other miner, but this one, I'm sending you both some btc's as we speak... Thanks for being cool! Everyone throw these guys a buck or two... It'll add up, for their great work ;-)

Thanks RRT5ON! Your work (and many others of course) is appreciated. Tx ID 6770c2ff7a0443c453d417923c9181ebc39d2549608172424a280ef180238699

Can any of you look at my configs and give any input for tweaking?

7970 2.84 Mh/s

Code:

-k x11mod --thread-concurrency 22400 -I 15 -w 256 -g 2 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1450 --gpu-powertune 20

270x 1.93 Mh/s
270 1.75 Mh/s

Code:

-k x11mod -I 15 -w 256 --gpu-threads 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 --gpu-engine 1100 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-powertune 20

7870 1.58 Mh/s

Code:

-k x11mod -w 64 -g 4 --thread-concurrency 6144 --gpu-engine 1200 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-powertune 20 -I 15

And for thought. This is all just an arms race right? From CPU to optimized GPU to eventually application specific hashing. We are all compelled to keep up and the ratio of our work is essentially unchanged:)

not my site I just check their blog every now and then, they were first to release the heavycoin gpu miner.

How about X13?

[UniMatrixZ]

Just tried the version on cryptomining-blog.
I can't get it to work, I get the following when setting -k x11mod in my bat file

sgminer.exe: -k: Invalid parameter to set_kernel

you don't need the -k from bat file

[Folda]

Try fiddling with worksize, i.e reducing it.

Tried 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 192. The best result was 2.74 MH/s at --worksize 64.

i have same problem by my 290, it seems that improvement is not support for 290s cards

So how exactly do you mean I should configure my bat file without the -k command?

under kernel just put "x11mod", leave the rest the same

see the post above mine

[UniMatrixZ]

Yes, but I'm using a .bat file to start my miner.
Do I have to use .conf file to start it?
