[ANN] sgminer v5 - optimized X11/X13/NeoScrypt/Lyra2RE/etc. kernel-switch miner

[Hippie Tech]

Has anyone been able to mine solo with Wolf0's sgminer ?

[Pansyfaust]

Anybody have any rough guidlines around the intensity that is optimal for AMD Tahiti GPU's? Managed to finally get it to run on my 7950, but only at like 30khs at I-16

I use I = 17 or 18 for Xn. It depends on your overclocking.

I have a feeling they mean neoscrypt...

I'd say you are correct....

SpreadCoin(bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=715435) offers bounty for the GPU miner. Thought you might be interested.

What speed is possible with R9 290 cards with stock 1000/1500 settings?.

what can i achive in Hash rate (KHash/s) with a R9 290 card

[MTJ151]

thanks wolf but i'm not able to get anywhere near your rates. my sapphire 290 tri-x are only getting 145khs each running on 14.9 driver with -w 48, -tc 8192, -threads 4 in win 7. i wonder what the diff is.

I'm using my own kernel that's in development, that's why.

Damn it! lol

Wish I read this before I set up the miner expecting more hash!

Eargarly awaiting the development/release of that kernal.

Don't be too eager, I dunno what I'm going to do with it yet. I've rewritten almost all of it with at least decent code now. Here's some hashrates you should REALLY like (card types and info shown in notepad; NSFW): https://ottrbutt.com/miner/neoscryptwolf-11032014.png

I didn't have chance to see the hashrate before I had to close the window because I didn't want my GF to wonder WTF I was looking at. Maybe later....

[ebliever]

Wolf0, I tried switching to this latest miner of yours briefly (I'm on a X15 lease at the moment). I used the same config file as I use on my other SGminer copy, and it ran, but had many hardware errors. They were accumulating at a pace of over 12/minute across all four 290X's. I ran it long enough to see the hashrate top out at a level identical to my prior Sgminer build. Any thoughts on why I'd be getting hardware errors with yours? I have BF4 edition 290X's, and I copied the DLL's from my other copy of SGminer to yours, if that matters. But the binaries I did not copy over.

So this is a thread about sgminer5 the multi-algo miner; does sgminer5 now include neoscrypt algo as an option?

[numisma]

I am sorry, can't seem to find an answer anywhere.

Whats the power consumption in neoscrypt compared to other algos? Like scrypt and x11 ie?

Thanks for the answers

At one of my rigs X11 consumes 720w, neoscrypt is at 810-820w  so it's 10-15% more.

I can second that conclusion.

Haha, very interesting...

Still that is not with wolf's super-mega fast kernel Maybe we can expect lower consumption... ?

We need testers for NiceHash NeoScrypt. If you would like to participate, send me PM. It will only take 1 min of your time (you connect to certain IP:port and send few shares and then report back via PM what were the share diffs you saw in sgminer).

[semajjames]

SG5 for neoscrypt is out; I've compiled it. This is a zip of my kernel, slighly modified for SGMiner, as well as all the other kernels included on the github's develop branch, and a Win64 binary. Static compile, no DLLs, just like my standard SGMiner builds on Litecointalk. Also GPG signed, like my standard builds:

https://ottrbutt.com/sgminer/neoscrypt/sgminer5-neoscrypt-11-02-2014.zip

And of course, GPG sigs for those that check them (you should be): https://ottrbutt.com/sgminer/neoscrypt/sgminer5-neoscrypt-11-02-2014.zip.sig

Nice one Wolf0
                      will this work Solo mining ?

How long until this algorithm gets implemented on nicehash?  Trademybit already has it being launched to multiport within the next 24 hours.

Yes.

This miner you released is unusable for certain algorithms; it throws a lot of hardware errors for keccak as opposed to others (badman's) which do not throw even 1.
