Question

More than one thread/instance for each GPU

dadoqui opened this issue 8 years ago · comments

Hi , firs thanks for all the work yo are doing, sorry my bad english .

Are you planing to add more than one thread/instance for each GPU, as you are using silentarmy kernel is posible to double the hashing power for each gpu , as xtremal miner?

I don like xtremal miner because it forces to use a especific pool and the fee and the cashout are to hight.

Now I am runing y litle rig 3 x rx 470 moded bios and i have 22 Sol/s on each graphic card.

Thanks Again

Use -k zec zec switch at the end of your config in the bat file
GPU needs at least 4GB preferably 8GB of Ram

Something like what I use below..

:loop
genoil.exe -f 2 -c eu1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u "your address" -p z -z 1 -k zec zec
timeout /t 1 /nobreak
goto :loop

Thanks for your answer my cards are 4gb Saphire Nitro.

Now i am trying runing 2 separated instances and i have 80 Sols/s

26,6 on each card.

what do this line on your bat : timeout /t 1 /nobreak

It basically restarts the miner if it crashes as genoils is still unstable.

Hi. When you run -k zec zec for more than one thread does it shows double the total or the output of two threads?

I have two 390x

06:37:45 main : : 0.0S/s zec-sa#3: 36.6S/s zec-sa#5: 31.6S/s total: 68.1S/s
06:37:50 main : : 0.0S/s zec-sa#3: 36.8S/s zec-sa#5: 38.6S/s total: 75.3S/s

After monitoring the pool I concluded that ZEC ZEC does not help with 390x
