Version 1.3.0 released!

  • Further device specific optimizations bringing up to 30% increase in hash rate!
  • Fix crahes with optimized kernel under Windows.

Important: Version 1.3.0 needs GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=1

4rd and 3rd GCN generation cards (Nano, RX4*0) currently run slower on windows than linux. Therefore I recommend to use linux with fglrx (Nano) or amdgpu-pro (RX4*0) for those cards!


New speeds (stock card, linux):
R9 Nano: 390 S/s
R9 290X: 285 S/s
RX 480: 260 S/s

Nice work.  Base on those numbers, it looks like you're the first to get GDS working.  But I'm guessing you haven't tweaked caching with SLC/GLC memory access.
