[...]
oh... i tested the new software on my HD6990 - only ~800 cpm compared to the higher rate at pts.1gh.com ~1280 cpm / on one GPU of the card
[...]
i know that the kernels aren't fast on 5000 and 6000 series gpu cards. the used memory access pattern makes no sense for these gpus. the results are on one gpu of the card, or?


[...]
so if 1 instance takes 1200MB, two takes 2400MB, are you able to run three for 3600MB on your 4GB cards? and still increase results?
i haven't tried this yet. but i do not believe this will result in any gains. running 2 instances is a possibility to increase cpm for some users until the kernels are further opimized

The new version of the miner will be released soon and will resolve the issues. EDIT: v0.1 is released

Very nice work !!!

2K cpm with r280X

but could you try to put it on Ypool or 1GH please :))

ok, thanks. this is a little bit strange... i need to think about it.
@duckproto: the 270X has 4GB RAM, or? with 2GB two instances should not work

both the 290 and 270 have 4GB each.

I was shocked to see there are some R9 270X versions with 4GB of memory... all this time I've only ever seen the 2GB versions... I would not have searched that out without noticing what you were doing... I shall now go palm slap my face.

so if 1 instance takes 1200MB, two takes 2400MB, are you able to run three for 3600MB on your 4GB cards? and still increase results?

congrats to your mighty miner!
the hashrate is really great on 3 x 290X: 2504 cpm + 2529 cpm + 2549 cpm with ~ 2-%-rejects / 1075gpu+1250mem
Edit: the rejects are down to ~0.7 %

the two instances-solution is in my eyes not so well, because after a time the hashing settles down on the 2 instances - but the rejects go high on the second instance to ~ 8 %

oh... i tested the new software on my HD6990 - only ~800 cpm compared to the higher rate at pts.1gh.com ~1280 cpm / on one GPU of the card

please contact the pts-mining-pool to discuss a possible cooperation - http://pts.1gh.com
for your next step with joining other (smaller) pools with your miner

the mess on the startup are the messages of the compiler. i can suppress those messages but it makes debugging harder.

4th, If there's no network connection while starting, it will crash.
a miner without network connection makes no sense... but perhaps i can quit the miner more silently

sometimes when computer startup, it need time to re-acquire IP from DHCP server, but if miner startup at this time, it will crash. It's better to try to reconnect after a while, instead of crash.

wow, that sounds bad. is your connection ok? Linux or Windows?

Win7 64bit, maybe connection not stable, like last issue, no one can gurrant connection 100% stable, it's better to handle it more robust.

second, I have 2 280x, it can't start 2 card in one instance, must run 2 instance
did you try to run the miner with <name of executable> <your address> 0 1?
if i use  Miner address 0 1, both cards not work. I must use Miner address 0, and Miner address 1 , seperately.

first, after startup, it shows
LOOP UNROLL: pragma unroll (line 160)
    Unrolled as requested!
LOOP UNROLL: pragma unroll (line 112)
    Unrolled as requested!
...............
but can still work

second, I have 2 280x, it can't start 2 card in one instance, must run 2 instance.

third, after a while, maybe minutes or hours, it seems meet some abnormal sharetarget, and stop find share anymore(from gpu monitor, gpu sitll 100% load)

Could just be the nature of PTS mining but Ubuntu build netted me 8 blocks to 1 in Windows version.  Is the 35 seconds mining for you getting messed up and all blocks go to developer?  Still getting this on start up in Windows.

No, that is because of bad pool luck while you were mining in windows. beeeeer.org is a small pool with only a few generated blocks per day (mostly less than 10), but is has low fees (2.5%). Your windows output seems normal.


@rots: did you encounter any problems or does the miner work well?

4 instances running fine - 2 on 290X (1900/1214) 2 on 270X (970/568)

Thanks for the feedback. I think that I simply remove the queries for other platforms. This would solve the issue, but in the long-term I rather want to support all vendors. Not exiting the miner on CL_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND would lead to some funny stuff with AMD GPUs on linux....

nvidia support will follow as soon as I have any devices on which I can do tests.

ITS WORKING  :D

Can you create such a miner for nvidia cards ?
