/*
 * GPU configuration. You should play around with intensity and worksize as the fastest settings will vary.
 * index         - GPU index number usually starts from 0
 * intensity     - Number of parallel GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
 * worksize      - Number of local GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
 * affine_to_cpu - This will affine the thread to a CPU. This can make a GPU miner play along nicer with a CPU miner.
 * strided_index - switch memory pattern used for the scratch pad memory
 *                 2 = chunked memory, chunk size is controlled by 'mem_chunk'
 *                     required: intensity must be a multiple of worksize
 *                 1 or true  = use 16byte contiguous memory per thread, the next memory block has offset of intensity blocks
 *                 0 or false = use a contiguous block of memory per thread
 * mem_chunk     - range 0 to 18: set the number of elements (16byte) per chunk
 *                 this value is only used if 'strided_index' == 2
 *                 element count is computed with the equation: 2 to the power of 'mem_chunk' e.g. 4 means a chunk of 16 elements(256byte)
 * comp_mode     - Compatibility enable/disable the automatic guard around compute kernel which allows
 *                 to use a intensity which is not the multiple of the worksize.
 *                 If you set false and the intensity is not multiple of the worksize the miner can crash:
 *                 in this case set the intensity to a multiple of the worksize or activate comp_mode.

/*
 * Thread configuration for each thread. Make sure it matches the number above.
 * low_power_mode - This can either be a boolean (true or false), or a number between 1 to 5. When set to true,
 *                  this mode will double the cache usage, and double the single thread performance. It will
 *                  consume much less power (as less cores are working), but will max out at around 80-85% of
 *                  the maximum performance. When set to a number N greater than 1, this mode will increase the
 *                  cache usage and single thread performance by N times.
 *
 * no_prefetch -    Some systems can gain up to extra 5% here, but sometimes it will have no difference or make
 *                  things slower.
 *
 * affine_to_cpu -  This can be either false (no affinity), or the CPU core number. Note that on hyperthreading
 *                  systems it is better to assign threads to physical cores. On Windows this usually means selecting
 *                  even or odd numbered cpu numbers. For Linux it will be usually the lower CPU numbers, so for a 4
 *                  physical core CPU you should select cpu numbers 0-3.
 *
 * On the first run the miner will look at your system and suggest a basic configuration that will work,
 * you can try to tweak it from there to get the best performance.
 *
 * A filled out configuration should look like this:

 *      { "low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 0 },
 *      { "low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 1 },

Hard to help without log files, but I would suggest to try lowering intensity - start with 892 or something like that if you have 8GB cards or half of that for 4GB cards.

Further, I prefer not to use cpu for mining since I’ve noticed some sort of instability of the whole rig when doing so.

how do i do that lol total newb

Got to Flight Sheet and edit miner config. In AMD section change 1056 to something less (i.e. 892).

If you don’t want to use CPU for mining, then in CPU section type
"cpu_threads_conf" : null,

iam totaly lost lol i cant figure none of it out

Well, if you have configured you XMR wallet and created Flight Sheet where you have chosen xmr-stak for a miner - then you should be able to come to that same place again and click on “Configure Miner”.
