[Dev] NeoScrypt Hardware Comparison Site
-
For AMD cards there is the AMD Catalyst Control Center, which gives information about clock rates and more.
Not sure if all cards are supported.
For NVIDIA there is a tool called NVClock, that can set and read clock rates, but I think the latest cards are not supported. (… yet???)
-
I forgot about CCC for amd in linux, i’ve used nvidia cards in linux before, but never amd ones, perhaps i should try lol, i have a copy of windows XP (32 bits) + a key, would this be very good for amd or nvidia mining with cgminer? (im looking to put together a few cards i have lying around from old pc’s (R7 240 + HD 4870) and maybe shoving in a couple of 5850’s if/when i can get my hands on some :D
and hell yes! http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.external.php

took me some time to get through that one! ive entered them now :D
thanks for the submission!
also, i’ve been trying to get sgminer working on my nvidia cards, but all it does is either crash the gpu driver, or produce endless hardware errors :( any tips?

Besides buying a couple of AMD cards ? :P
Check that OpenCL is functioning on the cards. You need to have an opencl compiler installed, dont know if it is included with the nvidia drivers, or if you need to download a OpenCL SDK/Runtime pack seperately for the Nvidia cards.
-
cgMiner runs fine (and compiles the bin etc), but it only manages a whimpy 34 kh/s on 660ti, and 39 on 770, i know nvidia isnt the best for opencl
Ive tried copying the cgminer bin to sgminer but all that does is kill the display driver, no matter what settings i try to use
I can tune my 660ti up to 50+ kh/s with it but it just makes hardware errors

What happens if you use a pristine install of sgminer 5.1.0-Dev ? Doesn’t it compile a neoscrypt kernel for your nvidia cards ?
-
I will try again, i was trying with Wolf0’s optimized sgminer neoscrypt kernel, or perhaps that one was meant for cgminer?
Progress report: the submission form is actually getting a bit of progression!!!

############### Update News ###############
The “New Submission” page on the site is now working!
You can find it at: http://hw.neoscrypt.tk/new/
Please use that instead of posting submissions here!!!

Spartan, this is awesome! Thank you ahy!

I’ll pin this in dev for you if that’s ok.

You are using the wrong tool to show proof. You are using the GPU Caps Viewer, instead of GPU-Z as requested. GPU-Z shows more info, including the ability to read the sensors on your card.
-
My additions to the neo site comparison. (data already entered on ‘new’ page)
pic 1 shows the reported hashrates (I get these before running GPU-z)
pic 2 shows lowered hashrates after running GPU-z and it slows down my hashrate until rebooting!!!
pic 3 shows GPU 1 & 2 -XFX R9 290x settings
pic 4 shows GPU 3 & 4 -Sapphire TRi-x OC R9 290 settings

Thanks, i’m enjoying making it too, learning php and html as i go along :D

That’s awesome thanks!

I’ve accepted your submission on the site, in future try to use GPU-z for proof, as it gives more information :)
You are using the wrong tool to show proof. You are using the GPU Caps Viewer, instead of GPU-Z as requested. GPU-Z shows more info, including the ability to read the sensors on your card.
It’s not too critical now the new submissions page is working, as i can pull most information of other sources (bandwidth/power etc) but it’s easier if people can fill it out themselves (GPU-z gives all the information needed for the fields on the submission page)
For proof all that is needed now is a screenshot of the card name and clockrates, alongwith the miner software showing the hashrate. and please put a link to that in the “notes” section in the submission.

Added those now, is the 290 beating the 290x because of the memory type? seems pretty interesting to see how different memory types can effect things alot, perhaps timings have something to do with it.
############### Important ###############
For proof, please upload your screenshot to any free image hosting site, e.g. http://tinypic.com/ or screenshot sharing site e.g. http://gyazo.com
AND
put this link in the ‘Notes’ section when entering your submission on the new submissions page.
This makes it a whole lot easier to find where peoples proof images are! (i have to check this thread to make sure i havent missed any)
Also: html code can be used in the notes section, to add a link to proof:
[Proof][4]Again can i remind everyone the new submission page is working, and can be found at http://hw.neoscrypt.tk/new/

ok i’ll use it now
thank’s

That is correct, they are both bottlenecked by using wolf’s next oldest kernel because I cannot get the latest one running, but the Hynix vs Elpida memory thing is the single factor in the difference in speed, as they are both using settings very close to each other to get those speeds. Which is why I included the memory type.
When the newest kernel is released in a working windows build, those will have to be edited as they should both see a minimum15% increase in speed. 8)
-
Elpida memory must be pretty bad to be that much slower wow xD
Both my 660ti and 770 have hynix, and ive noticed that the memory clock has the biggest effect on hashrate, pulling my 660ti from 1175 core to 1333 barely sped it up by 1kh/s, but pushing the ram from 1503 to 1775 made it shoot up by about 4-5kh/s
Now to see what i can get outa my asus 770 (still waiting for the rest of my watercooling setup so i can swap out my 660ti)
Could probably try overclocking my i7 more and testing out how fast i can get that going on all 8 threads, and give the 660ti a rest (poor things being hammering away for the past 2 weeks straight lol)… i can get this i7 stable at 5ghz (im a lucky ducky) but it does require a lot of overvolting and a lot of cooling, hopefully watercooling will remedy that (as i said still waiting for some parts)
Note: has noone got AMD cpus? Could do with some of those being submitted to the site! That E1-1200 is sitting there all on its own… lonely thing :p

My mining rig has an AMD 8350 CPU, but that’s currently (and always) occupied by mining 4 GPU’s and 6 ASIC devices…
And the Intel Q9600 in this workstation is busy running a browser and wallets and emails… And really pushing this box at all tends to display this funny blue screen with white lettering that basically says “ha ha, I’m going to reboot now, so screw whatever you were doing” so I tend not to push it a lot…
I did at one time mine a couple cores of each of those on neoscrypt, here is the results:
-AMD 8350 (8 core) black running stock clock gets 1.63 kh/s per core.
-Intel Q9660 (quad core) unlocked running stock clock gets 1.32 kh/s per core.-ramping up to 3/4 the cores in both CPU’s held the per-core hashrate shown
The wife is due for a PC upgrade, an AMD APU might be going in there. :)

for an AMD apu i’d reccomend the A10-7850K, that thing is pretty impressive! and plenty of ram really lets it fly, my friend recently got one in his machine, he can even run some games at 1080p at mid-high settings!
thanks for giving me some info for CPUs :P however the comparison site also needs memory amount/type/channel/speed, so if you could get those that would be great!
if you could submit the details on the site, would be even more awesome :D
