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

[tarzanbigcity]

Why is it showing negative accepted shares? Is there a fix for this? Also the best share doesn't seem to be incriminating the value correctly. Running on Win 8.1 with multiple R9 270x's.

Hi, my R9 290 give only 2,5 MHs
2% have 3,6 MHs

here is sph-sgminer_x11mod config:
"intensity" : "15",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "128",
"kernel" : "x11mod",
"thread-concurrency" : "24550",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"gpu-engine" : "1025",
"gpu-memclock" : "1450",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"

What is wrong?

[Amph]

gpu thread 1 for 290, they work better with a single thread

[thefrog]

All my 280x show between 2.9 to 3.2 MHs, and my p2pool and also other central pool (hiro) shows same values as the miners.

So works for me.

you can give the command line

1040/1500, 8192, 1.055, 1.099, 1.145 voltage. needs a bit of fine tuning to get all cards running stable.
some have 24000 tc, some have 1120 engine.
Take your time and find your stable clocks.

This miner is so fake. I have the same hash as with regular miner, 2% miner gives me 40% more. Tried lots of diferent setings and it's all the same. Went back to 2% miner.

[kocur]

on other rigs with 7970s and 280Xs I'm able to set --gpu-engine 1100, same drivers etc, so there is about 3,100 Mh/card and WU about 0.045, solo mining works fine too. I stay on this version .)

you have to change -k darkcoin to -k x11mod

Hey guyz, kinda noobish here, how do I go about getting this miner to run? I am using bamt and would love to swap it out for the sph-sgminer that is already included with the distro

[zxc003]

HD7850:
2% version - 1.68MH/s
-w 128 -g 2 --thread-concurrency 6144 --gpu-engine 1200 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-powertune 20 --gpu-vddc 1.165 -I 20
This version - 1.73MH/s
-w 64 -g 4 --thread-concurrency 6144 --gpu-engine 1200 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-powertune 20 --gpu-vddc 1.165 -I 15

Awesome work! Thank you man for your efforts!!! 

[dmpotter]

I see an improvement for sure, look at the chart

Confirmed working on 280x and 7950s had overall about a 35%-40% increase very nice work! Once I  confirm it is stable for 24-48 hours should see a donation coming your way

However unable to get it to work on my 290s.

There was an increase from 2.35-2.5 however nothing near the other one.

Config:
I 15
Vectors 1
lookup-gap 2
Worksize 128
thread-concurrency 8192

Done base clocks and even OCd up to 1000-1030/1350-1500 The oc it did get to 2.7 however still much lower then the 3.3-3.6 on the other 2% miner. Any idea's?
Also tried changing worksize to 256 and the TC to my script one which is 274000.

Thanks!

I hope I don't sound greedy, but you'd better split the donation . Or something like 40/60, since I think lasybear's work on the miner is much more valuable. But again, I hope I don't sound too greedy, I just don't earn anymore BTC through mining or even trading so I try to do coding where I can, so any tips are welcome.

I should have rephrased it, as I did mean to both of you. As I have been following this closely. I have both of your BTC addresses unless you want it in a different currency

Windows 8 x64, Catalyst 13.11 beta 9.2, binary from "Remember remember the 5th of November".
R9-290 (card 0) and R7-240 (card 1, not for mining, just to connect my monitor to it).
The same config (tmb_x11.conf) for the original sph-sgminer and the new binary:

Code:

{
"pools" : [
    {
        "url" : "am01.eu.trademybit.com:4440",
        "user" : "...",
        "pass" : "..."
    },
    {
        "url" : "east01.us.trademybit.com:4440",
        "user" : "...",
        "pass" : "..."
    },
    {
        "url" : "west01.us.trademybit.com:4440",
        "user" : "...",
        "pass" : "..."
    }
],

"thread-concurrency" : "24550,1280",

"expiry" : "10",
"log" : "5",
"queue" : "0",
"scan-time" : "1",
"api-listen" : true,
"api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1",

"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"
}

sph-sgminer launch:

Code:

sgminer -X 240,1 --gpu-engine 947-1050,900 --gpu-memclock 1500,900 --gpu-powertune 40,0 -d 0 --lookup-gap 2 --worksize 512 -g 1,1 --auto-gpu --auto-fan --gpu-fan 35-80,30-45 --temp-target 85,75 --temp-overheat 90,80 --temp-cutoff 95,85 --failover-only --gpu-map 0:1,1:0 --failover-switch-delay 5 -k darkcoin -c tmb_x11.conf

New binary launch:

Code:

sgminer -I 15,8 --gpu-engine 947-1050,900 --gpu-memclock 1500,900 --gpu-powertune 40,0 -d 0 --lookup-gap 2 --worksize 512 -g 1,1 --auto-gpu --auto-fan --gpu-fan 35-80,30-45 --temp-target 85,75 --temp-overheat 90,80 --temp-cutoff 95,85 --failover-only --gpu-map 0:1,1:0 --failover-switch-delay 5 -k x11mod -c tmb_x11.conf

sph-sgminer gives 2.62 MH/s, the new binary gives 2.72 MH/s. I expected more significant improvement.

Try fiddling with worksize, i.e reducing it.

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.

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.
