Device AMD r9 m375 4GB
1 0 8192 640 8192 works well

@Lunas2525 Can you give me the average nonces/minute with a buffer writing strategy?

1 0 8192 640 8192
Generating nonces...
100% (57344 nonces), 13440.00 nonces/minutes, 4m 16s
Ran a quick 14gb one to a m500 Crucial SSD
Adjusted it a bit this is the next combo that works and had significant change to speed... this seems to be the best i can get out of it... this is buffered
1 0 3072 640 8192
Generating nonces...
100% (57344 nonces), 19114.67 nonces/minutes, 3m 0s
this is direct
Generating nonces...
100% (57344 nonces), 19114.67 nonces/minutes, 3m 0s
the rest are buffered
1 0 1024 640 8192 These settings also worked and the plotter seemed more responsive in reporting.
Generating nonces...
100% (57344 nonces), 13440.00 nonces/minutes, 4m 16s
I have a r9 280x i can report on as well
it is currently running
0 0 1792 128 8192 (i dont think these are optimal as i have seen higher numbers off this card before using much different numbers) i think 0 0 4096 192 and 4096 gave me better results but ill need to run some tests before ill say those are good...

GPU: NVidia GeForce 1050 TI
HDD: CT525MX300
devices: 1 0 1152 192 6144
mode: buffer
stagger: 4096
nonces: 40960 (~10GB)
Average nonces/min: 25869.47
Time: 1m 35s

[admusin]

GPU: GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
HDD: WD Blue 4TB WE40EZRZ
devices: 0 0 12288 512 8192
mode: direct
stagger: 12288
nonces: 15249408
nonces/min: 14450

This is the second 4TB round running in direct mode.

The other one run and finished OK with:
devices: 0 0 3072 512 8192
stagger: 3072
mode: direct

Tested for a small while and seemed to be working OK, also with:
devices: 0 0 6144 512 8192
stagger: 6144
mode: direct

However, maybe worth mentioning, is that each time I changed these settings I had to recalculate the total nonces number to be an exact multiple of stagger; if I did not, the plotter would fail each time with an error saying something like "Could not extend output file".

MSI GTX 1060 6GB - used also as a video card for monitor
1 0 4096 64 384
Gives around 23k nonces, but as a reason i had a lot of mistakes from Pools, about corrupted plot file.

1 0 4096 48 12
Gives around 25k nonces, hasnt finished plotting, and i'm afraid of that corrupted plot files results.

RX580
0 0 13312 256 8192
buffer

Speed vary a lot based on the destination disk and stagger size. My settings, two disks: 70k nonces/min
