Just got a 290x but can't get it to mine. I've installed latest drivers as well as APP SDK 2.9. When I start cgminer:
Error -42: Loading Binary into cl_program (clCreateProgramWithBinary)
Highest hash rate I've gotten is 10khash... what am I missing? Tried few settings online but none seem to work. This is the latest one I tried:
--scrypt -g 1 -w 512 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 24550 -I 20 --gpu-fan 75 --gpu-powertune 20
Remove the extra stuff at first. Start with a minimal configuration to get going.
Put this in cgminer's directory in a txt file and rename it to e.g. cgminerStart.bat
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://addresshere.com:3333 -u yourworkname -p yourpassword -I 15 -w 256
Once you verify it works, up the intensity inside cgminer until it gets unresponsive or you hit 20. (Press G, I, 0, 16 in this order as it prompts to change intensity inside cgminer)
