Re: [AMD/Nvidia/CPU] FinMiner

On pascal (randomhash): hashrate decrease on windows on a 7960x (16 cores, 32 threads) with all 32 threads: from above 3500h/s to lower than 3000. To avoid this problem, I need to limit to 24-26 threads, with around 3200h/s.

With rhmininer with 32 threads, I am at around 3100 h/s.
So far, your miner is better: 3200h/s with 24 threads, 175w, instead of 3100 at 200w with rhminer.

But maybe you can manage to solve the problem of hashrate decrease at 32 threads, with a stable 3500 h/s.

We are working on it, however, until a new version appears you should try to install windows 10 linux subsystem and run linux version of FinMiner. I promise you, results will be better.

Ok, thanks, I have already installed WSL. I will try tonight. Does performance on WSL similar than a proper linux installation ?

Are you sure the higher hashrate is real and not a bug:

In rhminer from polyminer, in release notes of 0.9.4:

Fixed wrong hashrate on linux. (a thread-concurrency bug made H/S show-up higher on linux.)

PS: I have 4450k/s on linux with 24 threads (somewhat optimal setting, more threads gives better hahsrate at the beginning but decreases with time), against 3200kh/s on windows.
