[ANN][X11/X13] X11 (Darkcoin)/X13 (Marucoin) miner (based on sph-sgminer)

[sling00]

Please fix 290/290x sick bug in x11mod kernel.
Works fine on x13mod but x11mod sicks in 1-30 minutes randomly.

Works fine on vanilla darkcoin kernel in sph-sgminer but binary miner & this miner sick the cards.

Would be nice if it could be fixed in x11mod and sgminer 5.0

Note: i've tried different card bioses, different operating systems, and different clocks (even insanely low ones), they all sick randomly while the card is stable on every other algorithm/miner ive tried it on. as well as different catalyst versions.

set your intensity to less with 1 and will be fine i did and it works.

intensity 8 will cause the same thing as 17 (which is optimal )

will there be new % increase? girino version gives 100kh/s more

100kh/s more on what? x11 and x13? both?

will there be new % increase? girino version gives 100kh/s more

and 1% fee.

the math is still in his favor

100kh/s more is like 1/30 for 1/100 fee

its x13 and i get 100kh/s more from each card i get 3.2mh/s with lasybear and 3.3mh/s with grino may cards are 290s.
so with  grino  i get  3x 3300:9900kh/s- %1fee:9.8mh/s
with lasybear:3x3200kh/s:9.6mh/s

You're so funny )
This is not a miner quality, but kernels code optimisations.
Ok. Look.

i know this is optimization lol, i was just showing the obvious

is that a 280x at 1100c doing almost 2.9MH/s on x13?

R9 280x MSI Gaming, GPU/MEM 1190/1500, x13.

[PetrGasparik]

ATI drivers 13.x vs 14.x, do you observe change in hashrate?

Since I can't get over 2,5Mh on x13 with R9 290 on 13.x drivers, I  think about changing them.
But because it is a lil bit scary for me (on Linux), I would like to make some research before.

[Ninetoe]

anyone got some good results on 5870 with the x13modold ?

cant seem to get past 1.1 MH

gpu 935
mem 1250
tc 8000
worksize 128
gpu-threads 1


tried with worksize 64 and 2 threads but same results

hashing happily at 1.95MH on x11

[hellyeahent]

u fixed r9 290 already or still crashes badly ?

[bigradeon]

i realised that there is no difference between 1st X13 mod version and the last 03/06/2014, with my rig i got 2.7 per 280x
P/S x13modold kern has decreased the hashrate

[djm34]

I just upgraded to the latest 14.6 driver and strangely it doesn't seem to work, I only get HW errors and no share at all with my R9 290x
(Am I doing something wrong or is there anybody having the same problem ?)

[rajapatr1]

New version i get 2.4mh old version get 2.5 why it lower same config

[ebliever]

u fixed r9 290 already or still crashes badly ?

I've been seeing increased crashes with my 290X's as well. Sometimes one goes sick and drops to about 40% hashrate and doesn't recover if CGwatcher restarts the miner app. In that case all I can do is have CGwatcher force a reboot if the hashrate drops below a certain threshhold. But it's happening a lot, like 2-3 times/hour in certain circumstances. Other times it runs stable for 12-15 hours. (Might be the mining pool used makes a difference somehow?)

Yep.
Has read a lot of responses that 14.6 is bad for miners.

[lasybear]

Use old version. New version is mainly for old cards.

change I to lower by 1. That helped me but lost 200KH/s coz of that

Open source (== NO HIDDEN MININGS) version of X11/X13 algo sgminer with separate kernels.

Upd. 2014-06-03

• Fix x13mod for AMD HD 5xxx/6xxx cards. Use for these cards "kernel" : "x13modold" in config file or -k x13modold from the command line. All parameters (intensity, threads etc) need to be tuned individually.
• A little improvement in hamsi kernel.
• Further fixes and improvements will be committed to innovative sgminer 5 only: https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/tree/v5_0.

Windows binaries (actual):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sodbzky1e3p2d32/sgminer_x11x13mod_03_06_2014.zip

Upd. 2014-05-28

• Added x13mod (Marucoin, Boostcoin etc) support
• Increased time to SICK state
• Experimental: hashbuffer allocation depends of initial {i, xi, rawi}ntensity. Maybe increase a stability, maybe not...

Windows binaries (previous):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/umdtns7vfvpnca4/X13mod.zip

Mainly thanks, obviously, girino for his brilliant idea.

Thanks to Elun for actual Windows binaries.

Thanks to Remember remember the 5th of November for extracting kernels file from "girino's 2% fee version miner" and providing Windows binaries.

Increased time to SICK state (WTF? - read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=623409.msg6949113#msg6949113)

## Mod x11 (separate kernels)

0. Use "kernel" : "x11mod" in config file or -k x11mod via command line.
1. In case of instability please set a little bit lower engine frequency than a original sgminer.

Do not hesitate to donate

Hi I got a 4x6950. What will be the hashrate for x11mod and settings and tuning for its?
