GPU Mining on Intel Apple Mac using XMRig and KawPow

[macminergod]

That did work, thanks! Is their a configuration that enables RandomX CPU for Mac? Is that faster?

Or, a way to speed up Kawpow in the coding?

Hi there, mine sharing your hashrates with the Vega 64 16gb?

With OpenCL / Kawpow: [2021-10-24 15:25:55.223] miner speed 10s/60s/15m 4.87 4.70 4.71 MH/s max 6.15 MH/s
With Random X: [2021-10-24 15:26:16.597] miner speed 10s/60s/15m 3137.3 3013.1 3087.9 H/s max 3306.2 H/s

Hi, thanks for the help.

Followed the instructions as well but I'm getting this error message. Is there something I'm missing or should add to the code? I'm getting the error message: "opencl skip non-existing device with index 1" and "opencl disabled (no suitable configuration found)"

Hi, @aenl - can you post your first lines of output when you first launch xmrig - the ones that show all the configuration information?

@aenl, try Index 0, looks like you don't have Index 1.

As for randomx CPU. KawPow gets me about triple the performance, I get 4.01 mh/s

I was getting 2000h/s randomx CPU.

Hey @zcbfgrg not sure what you mean by try index 0, do you mean like place 0 instead of the 1? And ok I will try kawpow, didn't realize for some reason you could run that algo with randomx.

@zephyr325 This is what the first lines of code looks like when I start up the application.

It looks like your device id is "0", so if your config file is telling it to use index "1", that might be the problem. Maybe try:

Code: Select all

"kawpow": [
            {
                "index": 0,
                "intensity": 36864,
                "worksize": 256,
                "threads": [-1],
                "unroll": 8
            }

Thanks @zephyr325, yes, that's what I meant! Replying on mobile...so it sucks!

Make that change, and you should be good to go @aenl

Ok it looks like that definitely worked. But it's been going for a few minutes now but its not accepting a job? Is there something wrong or should I just wait a bit longer?

Thanks so much for your help!

Based on that screenshot's time signature, and the way you're getting a new job every minute or two, I'm not sure what the problem is you're seeing?
