[Dev] NeoScrypt GPU Miner - Public Beta Test
-
Tested this with Nvidia 560m I’m see no improvement, actually I’m seeing a 1.02kh/s loss using 3.7.8
It works - as for the loss, it’s not exactly intended for Nvidia; my main target is AMD Graphics Core Next - that is, every AMD card 7xxx series and up.

Seeing a HUGE performance bump for the R9 290 - 100kh/s - 135-140Kh/s. Using native 14.9 drivers, no messing with 13.x bin files.
Thanks Wolf0 & Vehre… This is awesome.
On those 290’s, kick the core clock up to 1130 and the memory clock up to 1495, you will see a substantial boost in speed, and almost no change in temps.
I haven’t found a way to get my 290x (XFX) to accept overclocking settings from afterburner yet. But it without o/c settings, the 290x and the 2 290’s using those settings are running 150 kh each. 78c, 80, and 84c (the 84c is a on triple fan GPU that one of the fans fell off of at some point in time)
More tweaking later, gotta go mow the lawn.
Oh, and thanks Wolf0 for digging in and offering the improvements!!

Yea late night, just woke a short while ago and setting in front of my laptop and haven’t made it to the shop yet to test on my R9 270’s or 6970’s.
I’m sure I will see some improvement with those once tested. Thanks for working with this project.

Haven’t tried playing with the clock speeds yet on my 290’s - however… I was able to get them up to 160kh/s using -I 15 and -w 48… (hynix cards, haven’t tried the elpida ones yet)
Not too shabby for stock clocks :)

Yeah, the speed on neoscrypt is really picking up with cleaning up the code… ;D When I have some time to start playing with settings in 14.xx without having to use the 13.xx bins, I’ll start tinkering with the speeds again without overclocking and see where I can get. Probably tomorrow after work, as with the time change it’ll be dark when I’m heading home from work.

You can definitely tell that everyone just started using 3.7.8 - the network hash rate is up almost 40% and the diff with it.
-
SGMiner is now out! Buggy, but better than the current GPU miner which is based off shit-tier CGMiner - no Win bins for now, a guy I know did it, not me: https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer – IT IS THE DEVELOP BRANCH.

Haha, yeah. Release a faster miner and diff rises; but neoscrypt needed a working miner.
-
I’m getting more stable hashrate and better hash estimation on SG5.
-
Would be anyone so kind and compile the SG5 miner for windows and upload it?

I was playing with the sgminer and neoscrypt for few days but had one bug in *.cl file I wasn’t able to solve.
Where is the source I would like to try to compile. I don’t see anything neoscrypt related in that link Wolf0 posted.

My God, it has capital letters! Develop branch.

Ok found it trying to compile but have some strange problems on cygwin need more time.

Cross-compiling from Linux I find is far easier.

No matter what compiling option I try it is the same.

Oh, you must be new at this. git clone --recursive -b develop https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer
That will get the submodules - your git has to be new enough to support submodules though.

ok compiled, no improvement whatsoever :( I m testing it in cygwin
here is the exe file other needed files you can find in any other compiled sgminer version

It seems that some parts are not compiled properly but maybe someone can use this to create better performance, on my side is too late to do more testings.

Here’s the one that I threw together complete with the 13.x AMD drivers (you need them as the kernel included with this dev release does not appear to work with 14.x yet). For those of you who normally use cgminer, you use “-k neoscrypt” instead of --neoscrypt to tell the miner which algo to use.

You don’t need those drivers, it’s the same kernel! Change WORKGROUPSIZE to WORKSIZE in mine, rename it to neoscrypt.cl, and place in kernel directory. Done.

LoL. Works great now with 14.x. Edited the other post and updated the zip file.
