Changing the hashing algorithm
-
Lizhi, tried__-g 3 ? just out of curiosity, not had a chance to play with it yet. (Note to self: never ask Lizhi mining advice, only financial >:D ) *runs off giggling*
Question: Is there any leeway under Neo to play around with transaction speeds, without changing block rewards/times, or is there too much risk of security issues with that?

OK ,your miner are working.

Your card listed?.. https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison
I have to play a lot of trial and error with my cards, the 4 gig 270X’s (they outperform some 280’s with less power, why I went for the 4gigs, algo dependant) aint listed there and tbh, I really cba compiling for the linux box, I’m being lazy, letting the coders code before I poke at the new toys.
Just throwing this site out there, cause no way a 280 should be running at only 1k 1050 minimum, sure, ramp it up in 5’s from there, till the drivers crash, roll it back 5, start with a standard 1500 memclock

What does WU:x mean?

Gigabyte Gv-R7870C-2GD 7870 PCI-E

What does WU:x mean?
WU: The Work Utility defined as the number of diff1 equivalent shares / minutehttp://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/19260/deciphering-cgminer-interface-in-terminal
So I’m guessing the higher the number the more efficient your miner is
-
Ah nice. Cheers.

Which version Catalyst is best ?
my 7850 ,7970 are HW ,not work.
-
I think 13.4 is the best, but 14.4 for me was only 1% or 2% slower so not a huge difference.
I was running 8.something and that would crash cgminer.
What version are you currently using?
-
I use AMD 14.4 Catalyst + SDK 2.9 .
Can you mine with AMD 13.4 Catalyst + SDK 2.8 ?
-
I could mine with just AMD 13.4, I didn’t have SDK installed at all, although I now have installed SDK 2.9.
I have a Gigagbyte HD7870 GPU, running Windows 7 64 bit
-
There have been known mining issues with 14.4 since release, 13.12 max on windows.
-
The best choice:
AMD 13.12 Catalyst + SDK 2.9
AMD 7850 CARD =48Khash/s ;
AMD 7970 CARD =16Khash/s ;

I gave it a try last night on my nVidia 550M, Win7 and I got max 8 khs. Mostly default settings, --worksize 256 -I 13, no overclock. Driver version 294.10 - a bit old
76C gpu temp -> not bad
I think it can reach up to 10 khs with some tweakin
This is what i get with -I 14
Limitation of the gpu?
And whats the logic 7850 to perform 3 times faster than 7970?
Do you guys expect the stratum implementation to raise the productivity significantly?
-
Try dropping the intensity I am using 11 on my 7870, on I 12 it drops performance by half, and on 14 I would probably only get around 8 too.
For normal Scrypt I 12 is the sweet spot for me but 11 is required for Neoscrypt
-
Is there anything special you needed to do to get cgminer working with nvidia?
