XMR is leading the pack in terms of mining right now, best to get on it asap.

+1 for integrating the rest of your ZEC / ETH miner feature set.

ZEC just broke $39 and dropping. It's pointing toward $20

I highly recommend people start posting in Claymore's XMR GPU miner thread, we need more traction.

They question has been answered already. There's no issues with the miner. Make sure your PSU's have plenty of capacity or downgrade to v8 as future releases will probably push GPU cards more.

Your RX480's should be on XMR.

RX480's are hitting 720 -> 770 h/s depending if you're under or over clocking.

Would you girls mind creating a new thread and taking it there as this AMD vs Nvidia drama is dragging on.

Those 200 shares are worth more than those 700 as the 200 were done with a higher difficulty.

Right now I'm using it for myself just to see what the possibilities are.

This is an example of the server-side log:


The nice thing is, I can see my mining clients on my windows machines swapping between the different coins. So far so good!
I like your idea of paying people for their hash rate in BTC and directing it to whatever pool gives the best performance etc.

1250w PSU should make all your problems go away. Also, you can push -100 mV on most RX480's

The plan is to monetize it. I'll supply the hardware, bandwidth and auto-switching service.
Something like this has been needed for a long time. One pool goes down, software automatically swings to a different pool in a different geographical location on the fly.
The auto-switching should be all smoke and mirrors that allow one thing: you mine whatever is the most profitable, 24/7.

You most certainly have a power problem.

Lower miner intensity, revert to stock rom, fix drivers etc.

How can a process execute anything when you get a BSOD? Sure it's possible for hanging cards and other weird issues however when a kernel panic occurs, I'm not sure any new process execution can occur.

I've now completed all the code to automatically switch to whichever coin is most profitable.

To answer your question:

If you look at prices for ZEC/XMR/ETC/ETH, there's no real MAJOR hard ups or downs in terms of pricing.. It's either a slow increase or decrease.. (yes, there are exceptions to this rule but in the long term, everything averages out). Most of the profitability switching comes from network difficulty either dropping or increasing.

Since I mine directly to the exchange:

I'm busy with the code now to poll / connect to the exchange's API, check all balances and immediately sell any coin that is available at the current sell order rates.

I can just keep buying rigs / video cards and know that as I get more hash rate, it will get more and more accurate / profitable.
It's too tedious doing things manually .. This way I can go on holiday, spend time with the family and thanks to the monitoring system, I will only be alerted when processes are not running or switching isn't working correctly.

The joy of opensource software

Not just that but people tend to leave the settings standard on http://www.whattomine.com/.

Everyone must measure their hash rate and power usage (at the wall!) and enter in the values there.
Even then, the profitability swings continuously as prices and network difficultly fluctuates.

My RX480's are underclocked and undervolted. Look more closely at the graphs and you will see spikes where ZEC is more profitable.
This has more to do with network difficulty dropping (you're getting more ZEC for the same hash rate and same price).


You're looking at the ZEC price and only using that as a benchmark and that's where you're going wrong.
As the price fluctuates, so does the difficulty as miners chop and change.


All my tests are done at the wall in terms of electricity usage and are extremely accurate.


I work around all ramp-up times with code.

Edit: To clarify: worst case ramp up time is ~20 seconds at most but the actual mining when switching is near instantaneous.

I've almost automated the entire process to mine whatever is the most profitable using a 5 minute rolling window average.



Just finishing the last bits of the code and then I can just sit back and watch. Manual switching is too tedious even with just 2 rigs.

I've been using dwarfpool for XMR for years now, wouldn't use anyone else.

My GPU's are happily mining XMR right now
