Here you can find best AMD configurations that worked for me while mining on XMR-Stak 2.4.x and 2.5.x versions for specific AMD graphics cards. This configuration is specific for CryptonightV7,V8 and heavy algorithms. Examples are written for dual threading for each AMD card. Each GPU is numbered by ‘”index” : X’ in configuration (double the line for dual threading). Example is given for 2x GPUs. Also i would strongly suggest that you use newest XMR-Stak versions, JSON configuration for 2.4.x is given for legacy purposes.
