[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[MOB]

Happy to say, I got the GPU plotter working on AMD 13.9 with the newest APP SDK 2.9.1 (32 or 64 bit). Stagger size of 4096 and threads count of 128 on a HD7970. I did a clean uninstall with DCCU gpu driver cleaner. 12288 nonce/min is my current rate at the moment, will update if it's stable. Going to try it with a HD6970 and HD6950 2GB card also.

Is this in Windows 7 or Windows 8.1?

Is there any wiki/repository on plot speed vs cpu?

Not that I know of. Here's some basic performance metrics on Centos 6.5 with dcct's linux plotgen:
i5-2400: 3400 nonces/min
E5-2560v2: 7000 nonces/min
E5-2670v2: 7100 nonces/min
2xE5-2560v2: 13900 nonces/min
i7-3770k: 4300 nonces/min
FX-8350 @ 4.2GHz: 3500 nonces/min

adding to that:

Intel® Core™ i7-2600 Quad-Core: ~3900 nonces/min

i7-5960X: 7400 nounces/min
i7-5930K: 6130 nounces/min

hey guys, I tried the GPU plotter but GPU driver crashes every time it starts plotting

second thing, I've noticed kinda big amount of data being transfered while plotting/mining burst. It can download even about 500MB per day, while mining other coins it was about 10MB/day. It might put me out from burst train to the moon, because I have limited data transfer:(
Does it download data only while plotting or while mining?

Try with different version of catalyst software. There are still different version of gpu to be tested but my mate successfully plotting with 290x twin frozer x10 times faster than his i7 processor. If you gpu is same model, pm for specs  

I tried on 2x 7950 and the driver was crashing. Then I tried on another pc with single 7950 and it doesn't even start to plot, it crashes after 'Building OpenCL program'.
what catalyst version does your mate have? I'm pretty sure I have the newest drivers.

Supposedly they are on 13.9. I just did a clean uninstall and installing 13.9 on a HD7970.

Yes my mate is on 13.9, i told him to download this version as it was mentioned here before and it worked straight on his 290x but he said on same pc it didnt work on 280x, so hope driver is an issue. You can try installing different version and see if one works for you.

I used the DCCU gpu driver cleaner to do a clean uninstall of 14.7, then installed 13.9 with APP SDK 2.9.1 to get it working. I used a stagger size of 4096 and 128 thread, that was the max it would let me do on the HD7970. Nonce/min of 12880 at a load of 60%~100% with system ram less then 3GB out of 8GB used. Temps are under 50C~47C also.

Haven't found a driver that works for me yet.   (R9 290x) Tried various 14.x and 13.9.  Tried with and without APP SDK in each instance.  Every time the final line in cmd is Building OpenCL program and then the .exe crashes.  

Tbh I've kinda given up, I've been on this for most of the day now with no success and I'm left thinking that I'm not going to land on the right avenue.  

Going to wait and see what the next version brings.

Baller status, 3~4 7970 can be bought for the price of that i7-5960X....LOL

My mistake, I meant DDU driver cleaner not DCCU. Try it: http://www.wagnardmobile.com/DDU/

Then install 13.9 and APP SDK at default setting on the gpu, no OC. With only one gpu per rig setup.

hi, if i join the pool v2, did i need to open the wallet, i just notice that i close the wallet, the miner still can work, didn't say any can't get info from wallet..

Joining the v2 pool there is no need to keep the wallet running.

[Razerglass]

i too just switched to solo mining,

  i thought you used to see a deadline while solo mining? what happened to it?

thanks, i just waste too many memory for the wallet running

  i thought you used to see a deadline while solo mining? what happened to it?

i didn't see any wrong with it,., it is normal, the deadline only show when prepared to submit shares, then will show the deadline, and this deadline determined whether you will get the block

[omgbossis21]

Lets not forget the cloudcoin  guys just dumped over 100,000 burst

okay. so there is really never a change in the scrolling screen.. for multiple computers if i dont set a static or im on a different network i need to be running the wallet on the local host right?



and what happens when you find a block? 10k poof into your wallet or anything on the screen?

i tried solo but the deadline i submitted is like 10 - 100 times i submit to pool. I tried it for around 10 blocks but the deadline is really high. Not sure if solo can read plot properly. i went back to pool.

Let em dump... it'll be a good time to buy!

LOL i forgot to move my plots! thanks yellow duck

where should the plot be for solo mine ?

1.you can change the conf/nxt.defaultp... add the ip you want to connet to your wallet,  nxt.allowedBotHosts,nxt.apiServerHost or what ever, i didn't try it, they told me at first, i remember these two place, you can search the post of dev.. this can makes you open one wallet and all of your miners share it
2. when you submit the share, you will see the deadline, one block will submit once, it will take several minutes, becuase every block is 4 minutes.you won't see any info when you get the block, the only thing is deadline, if your deadline is arroud 240, then you should have found a block, (this may not accurate, because some one may have less deadline, then the block is his, the lowest deadline owner will get the block)
3. the award should not be the 10k now, because it has passed one month, and the award decreased the 5%, should 9500 now

for pool mining in the poc pool mining plot folder.. for solo.. in the pocminer plot folder  or you could shortcut/symlink

Are you on Win7 or Win8.1 SpeedDemon?

And its not like I bought the 5960X for plotting ;p
