Hello,

one question:  i do not check  Huh Huh how to disable some GPUs in cmdline setup

i used, e.g --cgpuid 2,3 for disable GPU 0 and 1, but again miner takes all 4 GPUs, - when miner is running, i can disable GPUs with numbers without any problem.

But i need to disable it in cmdline.

what did i make wrong???

thx for help

I just tested on v1.8.8 this and it works, uses only those gpu's :

Code:
SRBMiner-CN.exe --ccryptonighttype turtle --cpool POOL --cwallet WALLET --cgpuid 2,3,4 --cgputhreads 2,2,2 --cgpuintensity 0,0,0 --cgpuworksize 8,8,8

Show me how are you setting up things.



Hello,

when I start the miner I get these settings:

GPU0: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][I: 107.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 1]
GPU1: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][I: 107.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 2]
GPU2: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][I: 107.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 3]
GPU3: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][I: 107.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 5]
GPU4: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][I: 107.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 6]
GPU5: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [8192 MB][I: 107.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 7]
GPU6: Radeon RX 580 Series [ellesmere] [4096 MB][I: 105.0][W: 8][T: 2][F: 4][BUS: 9]

But in the config I have Intensity 0 and no Fragment set at all !

Are these an optimal config for my cards or are overridden by the config file ?

thx

When you set intensity to 0 it means miner automatically sets everything for you (intensity, worksize,fragments).



I've just upgraded from V 1.8.5 to V 1.8.8. The new version is completely unstable and crashes the computer on a regular basis. Sometimes is crashes itself.
Will need to revert.

If you are not using the auto settings, check that your gpu id's are set ok, because 1.8.8 uses different gpu ordering (by bus id).
You can run --listdevices to see the which gpu is which id.

From the release notes for 188:

Quote
+ The default (and only) device ordering mode from now on is ascending by bus id, as it is in OverdriveNTool. Parameter --gpureorder is removed.
NOTE: if you are using gpu_conf or --cgpuid, please run --listdevices to check if you are using the right deviceid!
