Ive been unsuccessful running more than 4 cards per rig.
My solution was to buy more motherboards and run 4 cards per rig. This has increased my cost, but there hasn't been anything yet i've tried that has worked.
I've had as many as 8 in a rig working fine, but HBCC enabled only on 4 of them, and i've tried this across multiple motherboards, different things.
I have one potential solution i will try when i get time to take a few rigs offline for a few hours. We'll see...
I wanted source code, didn't get it for "fair price", but this is very good. Thx.
PM me your fair price...
ROFL. I think we've already established that a fair price is $0.
Yeah maybe, but your lines are not dynamic, slower, have no handling against failure and are not optimised against bsod. If you want to write this yourself, please do it. If not, use my tool.

Re: Mining with more than 4 Vegas and HBCC -> SOLUTION
Guys, I can confirm the script activates HBCC (tested it on 4 Vegas 64). I think it is truly impressive what HBCCACTIVATE has done and he deserves the devfee. I also think it would not be fair to share it publicly as he clearly spent a lot of time on it.
Additionally, I can confirm, i have extracted the script to work with any miner. However, there is one more thing to be said, the script contains hidden DLL library that does the actual job which cannot be decompiled properly and may contain virus (even though it is unlikely).
If you are really into having the script to run with any miner, i appreciate the XMR donations here (at least i will have my day payed): 4ApEdi82fFeTkNzk9MkE8TC21FHzbfBjyjX2v6mnGAGHC8bvxq5KJL2Fu8MXCm6ihha8af9jRWe8LE6Md8HkmziJKj9xios
However, it would be nicer from you to give credit to HBCCACTIVATE.
My job is finished, signing out...
I wouldnt mind to play for the HBCC activator if it was a standalone file that could allow us to mine with any miner...
I offered the program as a standalone version a few days ago. There were only comments which said that it is scam and there wasn't anyone interested. So the price is 1 xmr for the standalone version for each miner.
Why 1 xmr? -> If you have a rig of 8 Vega gpus and can only use 4 gpus without my tool you have 4 vegas with a hashrate of about 1300 instead of 1900. The difference is 600. 600 x 4 = 2400 H/s which you will gain with my software. Result: You will generate more than one xmr more in a month. So I think 1 xmr is a fair price for the standalone version. PM me if you are interested.

I splitted the tool in two standalone .exe-files due to xmr-stak-amd license restrictions.

Re: Mining with more than 4 Vegas and HBCC -> SOLUTION
yeah highly doubtful. HBCC is not something XMR-STAK can control directly so I don't see....oh wait dev fee is changed. so its just a recompiled xmrstak with a changed dev fee ? I really dont see hbcc problem solving here at all. how much ram do you have anyway
Xmr-stak does not do the trick... i run a simple call of xmr-stack after activating hbcc. I will reupload the tool after checking the license.

Re: Mining with more than 4 Vegas and HBCC -> SOLUTION
Its working on all of my Vega rigs. I uploaded the source code of the modified xmr-stak. The part which activates hbcc and calls the miner is not open source.
If the license of xmr-stack does not allow this, I will delete it. Please let me know.
Looks good, dev fee for your address is completly fine, but I think GNU GPL say that you have to give all source codes if you release it to the public.
That's correct - the OP is violating the rights of the copyright holder by distributing this binary without the added code.
I will check the license agreement again. If this is true I will publish a new version...

Re: Mining with more than 4 Vegas and HBCC -> SOLUTION
a modified version of xmr-stak source please! It's GNU licencesed...
Thank you for the hint. I added a link to the source code.

Hi,
i found a way to enable HBCC on more than 4 Vega cards and implemented it in a tool for you. In this thread I will offer you two tools: HBCC-Activator and a modified version of xmr-stak. Due to license restrictions I am not able to offer you both tools in one .exe file and have to offer both tools as a standalone version.
The modified version of xmr-stak-amd is open source amd will just mine for you with regular hbcc-settings. The source code of the modified version is uploaded on github.
The HBCC-Activator is close source and activates HBCC on all of your Vega cards. I use it on two of my rigs with 8 Vega cards each, 8 gb system memory and 100gb virtual memory. If you do not want HBCC-Activator to throw errors, you have to download it and save it in the same directory as the executable of the xmr-stak-amd-miner (modified version) and use this miner. <- License restriction.
Recommendations: - Use overdriventool for optimal automation! - Create a scheduled task to run my tool after system startup or: create a Batch-File to run this tool as administrator and dactivate the uac (not really recommended)
Known issues: - TLS-Connection of the miner is not working!
If you profit from this tool or just want to say thank you, I would appreciate a Monero donation to: Donation wallet: 42mgJMe9RAgRNWkxvvPAxjCFcekKja3DqWCgfhN8ghaZKNezbNH1ww9fiJWmRLV51Z1jTs4sxrfyEd3rAVK1pvKcCfHKGUM
