Has anyone tested the 2.1 version of stak with their vegas yet? I'm just trying to finish tweaking mine on 2.0 for now. I have seen mixed results posted on reddit, some claim its faster on vegas, others not.

Follow post #1 and the blog site tutorial link in #1.

I would start with XMR mining as base line, because all the blog info , hashrate are based on XMR mining.

Then make the config file change to mine Aeon after finish tweaking and stability testing.

I did exactly that and aeon was almost exactly 2x XMR hash rates. Not very compelling IMO.

i seen those, there seems to be another one above the Radeon verbage on the side. looks like a bios switch?

for the miner i had to use
"gpu_thread_num" : 2,
"gpu_threads_conf" : [
// gpu: gfx901 memory:3920
// compute units: 64
{ "index" : 0,
"intensity" : 1932, "worksize" : 8,
"affine_to_cpu" : false, "strided_index" : true
},
{ "index" : 0,
"intensity" : 1932, "worksize" : 8,
"affine_to_cpu" : false, "strided_index" : true
},


First run on aeon coins

260 watts with killawatt- prior system with 750 ti card mining at 450h was 115watts.

Update the threads hash seem to have settled in at 1654.6 each

I have been switched over to mining Aeon for about 2 months now. Gotten about 350 so far. I am mining to my own pool (aeonpool.mineit.eu), come by if you like! I also mine Electroneum with my second rig, on the easyhash.io pool

How much hash do you need to solo mine?

I've been considering trying that with Sumokoin.

Added one more card to my rig and had a nightmare of a time getting it to run.
Forgot that Windows for some reason grabbed a newer set of drivers, so I have to manually roll back and re-apply registry powerplay tables.

Wasted a better part of the day on it, but now it's hashing away at around 912W for 10000H/s. Lost track of which one is the weak card during all of it, so need to re-test all the undervolts. :(

It may not be a weak card. I had 3 and my 3rd card was runnin like 1975-1980’s. When I put my 4th Vega in it had those numbers and my 3rd csrd was a solid 2030-2030

I’m using igpu so no idea why last card is a little slower. I tried different risers, slots everything
