Title: Claymore miner crashes-NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti
Post by: Tiomcho90 on June 19, 2020, 08:07:11 AM
Hello everyone,

I have an unused video card, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti.
I tried running it on Ethereum mining with Claymore's Dual Ethereum Miner v15.0
The miner writes various error messages and continues to crash.

Anyone managed to run mining on this card?  ???

Are you trying to dual mine? I don't use Claymore Ethereum miner directly, I use Nicehash miner which has inbuilt Claymore miner that works with gtx980ti perfectly

From what I recall this GPU came with 6 GB of ram correct? If so then you shouldn't have issues mining ETH as long as you got 5GB or higher. If you got the 3GB model then you can't mine ETH.

Regarding dual mining, it's not worth it these days. Most of the algos have ASICs and it's a waste of electricity. You really should just post your error log for us to investigate and help you out. Most likely maybe some pool error you made.

It is indeed a version of 6GB, so it wasn't clear why the card showed different number of errors and clasped with    
Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0.
Temperature, DAG file, electricity errors etc..
After clearing on various sites it became clear that this card is not optimal for mining.

But I managed to get the card mining through Hashminer

Thank you!
