Does this miner work with AMD Radeon R9 200 Series?
I have problem with:

The same problem for me. I solve it deleting files in cache folder of srbminer, restarting pc and start miner to compile kernels again.

I think found the best method to calculate intensity and threads for GPU's to mine cryptonight_v8. Almost is working for me with 3 different GPU's.

First found total "compute units" or "ROPS" of GPU to use.

Example 28 compute units. 2Gb GPU Ram

Then rest 2 for internal work of GPU and OS needs. 28 - 2 = 26.

If use total compute units GPU don't have sufficient memory to work.

26 Compute units. Then multiply * 2. 26*2= 52 is the intensity for a GPU with 2Gb ram and 28 compute units and using 1 thread. With this configuration GPU works with maximum ram that can do. ~1700 Mb.

If we want to use 2 threads don't multiply * 2. Every thread is ~850Mb of memory used. Intensity 26 and  threads 2

If the GPU have 4Gb we can use intensity = 52 = 2Gb and threads 2 = 2Gb (total 4Gb ram) or intensity=26*4= 104 and 1 thread.

Worksize is minimun 8 and works fine in multiples of 8. 8/16/32.......the greater worksize is, greater time to found a result.

With a 1Gb GPU is easy. 28 - 2 = 26 intensity and threads 1 ~850Mb memory used, or 26/2=13 intensity ~425Mb memory used and threads 2 = 425Mb*2 = 850Mb memory used.

I hope this can be useful for some cases.

I use this variable in batch file: setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0

Hello. I don't test R9 200 series, but i have one R7 260x 2Gb gpu (bonaire) working fine, and one Sapphire HD7850 gpu (pitcairn) 1Gb working fine too. With Adrenalin 18.5.2 drivers.

Can someone help me with nicehash setup?
I had it setup once, but now it does not work again.
Pools conf:

{
"pools" :
[
   {"nicehash" : true, "pool" : "stratum+tcp://cryptonightheavy.eu.nicehash.com:3364", "worker" : "xxxx.002", "password" : "x"}
]
}

Heavy Conf:

{
"cryptonight_type" : "heavy",
"intensity" : 0,
"worksize" : 8,
"double_threads" : true
}

Logfile:

[2018-10-20 13:16:42] Miner version: 1.6.7
[2018-10-20 13:16:42] Windows version: 10.0 build 16299
[2018-10-20 13:16:42] Video driver version: 24.20.11021.1000

^^^^^^
It does not go beyond this..

Any help?

my nicehash setup is:

Code:
{
"pools" :
[
{
"pool" : "cryptonightv8.usa.nicehash.com:3367",
"wallet" : "mywalletinBTC.nameofworker",
"password" : "x",
"nicehash" : true
},

]
}
in the start file, the final line is:
Code:
SRBMiner-CN.exe --config Config\config-normalv8.txt --pools pools.txt --logfile %LOGTIME%

config-normal-v8 its default,

pd: srbminer version: 1.6.8




Try to change "worker" -> "wallet" and delete this  -> stratum+tcp:// <-

Hello. I have a question about threads.
If set in config.txt "double_threads" : true, and threads : 2 in every gpu config line, gpu_conf.......

i,m setting 4 threads for every gpu???
