On Ubuntu 16.04 with  
amdgpu-pro-17.10-401251 (catalys 15 don't install. v16 works but 17 seems better)
and
AMD-APP-SDK-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64 installed...
I use a RX470

all goes fine but at start of ethdcrminer64 v9.1 I have
"AMD ADL library not found."
and
AMDAPPSDKROOT=/opt/AMDAPPSDK-3.0
environment variable set in the systemd service

I don't know if it is a problem.
-asm 2 does not improve anything over -asm 1
I have temp and fan status
"GPU0 t=59C fan=67%"

I want to make all perfect, maybe I'm searching for inexistent problems...


gpu-pro does not support amd adl, so it's ok. -asm 2 has same speed as -asm 1 for most cards, it depends on GPU model, so it's ok. -asm 2 was added mostly for overclocked Tonga and Polaris cards and only for ETH-only mode. On these cards you can have best speed on -dcri 1, -asm 2 moves -dcri scale for these cards so you can try to find speed peak at larger -dcri values.

Hey Claymore, it looks like you prioritized who uses dual mode in these latest updates. For me that mine only ETH, I still use version 8.1 that continues faster (briefly). Do you have any plans to improve performance for eth only?

You should mention that 8.1 is faster for your cards. For some other cards v9 is faster. What GPU do you have? what -dcri value is the best in v9?
