41  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: AMD Mem Tweak XL - Read/modify timings/pp/straps on the fly on: December 14, 2020, 05:02:24 PM
Hi everyone!  I was one of the many previously using Claymore to mine ETH until recently.  I've now switched over to the current version of lolminer.  In doing so I noticed my hashrate dropped and attempting to get it back up again.  It was recommended to use AMDmemTweakXL.  And after launching and changing the refresh from (5) to (30) on each card I already gained another 1.5mhs per card.

Claymore's had some settings I made in the command line that increased the hash;
   [-dbg -1 -mport 3333 -mpsw Miner1 -etha 0 -tt 80 -tstop 90 -eres 0 -rxboost 1 -y 1 -powlim -10 -cclock 1200 -cvddc 820 -mclock 2150 -mvddc 900 -fanmin 90 -fanmax 100 -strap 1]

I know that Claymore and lolminer are different and I may not get the same hashrate, but I am looking at the AMDmemTweakXL and I'm thinking I could do the same here to bring it up some more, but there's a LOT more settings (and sub-settings) to mess with.

I'm asking to see if anyone has already done what I'm trying here.  At least a better starting point (and perhaps some pointers).

Each rig is:
Windows 10 x64
(12) AMD RX570 8G cards (current AMD driver 20.4.1, but 20.11.3 is available)
lolminer 1.16a
AMDTweak 1.1.0.3

Yes these are the correct ones... You also need to know which program will you use for flashing... if you are in HiveOS/RaveOS you can use their system or in Windows the AtiFlash...

The normal steps in resume are:
- Extract BIOS (If you are in Windows you can use GPU-Z in RaveOS/HiveOS you can extract from website)
- With the ROM Bios File apply directly the Polaris-bios-editor - 1 click
- Reflash (Windows with Ati Flasher in Admin Mode and in RaveOS/Hiveos with his uploader).

Thanks I'll give these a shot (using Windows BTW)

And with that epoch change, a flood of users are dumped from Claymore into lolminer.  And a series of "I used to over there", so "how do I over here?"

Unfortunately, I'm in this boat as well.  It took a little while to tweak my AMD RX570's with Claymore and I was getting approx. 32-34.
I am happily surprised that out of the box, lolminer starts up and I'm getting 21.5.  But, like many others, I'd like to get it back to where I was.

So from what I'm gathering in the past few pages.

- we don't have the timing features we did in Claymore.  So clock speeds and rxboost don't exist. But there seemed a little chatter that a new version could include this?
- settings for fanmin (90) and fanmax (100) also don't seem to exist?
- no need for strap?

I have AMD Afterburner installed still. Should I retry this?  I know it was a little crazy doing trial and error originally.  (blew a few breakers).  But is it worth to go back to this and set the clock, fan and power settings the same in this app as I did in Claymore?

JGONZI - "you mentioned if you don't know how ask"  but the idea of modding the BIOS does scare me.  Not sure I want to do that just yet.

But the last thing to mention is; is lolminer reporting a smaller hash?  I do notice on my miner (running Win10 + lolminer 1.16) indicates approx 21.6mh/s.  But then I go over to ethminer.org and it's reporting 27.4mh/s

And it looks like I can update my video drivers from 20.4.1 to 20.11.3.

[Update]
Can't say that Afterburner did anything.  In fact out of two rigs; one is now at 21 and the other says 19?
I set Afterburner (based off my Claymore settings of the same);
PowerLimit = -10
Temp Limit = 90
CoreClock = 1200
MemClock = 2150
Fan Speed = 90
No real change is seen.  It still seems to stay consistent.  Even after rebooting one of them.
Do you have 4Gb Cards or 8 Gb Cards?. If you want to modify BIOS the best Solution is the Polaris Editor to change the Timings of the Memory, also you can use RBE from Igorslab. After that the other solution to add and extra is use the AmdTweak  not the XL the old one you can add the -REF 30 directly in a bat file, and it will be automaticly add an extra 1Mhs for the mining.

I'm running AMD RX570 8GB cards  (12 cards per rig).

I'm planning today, while I continue to work on what to do, is use this AMDTweak that's been referenced byMIner 29 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123724.0).  At least have that in place while I'm messing around with things.

I'll be honest I get a small panic attack when I think about messing with the BIOS.  If it's legit upgrade to a BIOS I'm usually ok with it. But this, I just need a little background on it before I jump into it.  I mean, it sounds simple enough and not a big deal.  I just want to do some further reading on it before I do it is all. And hopefully have others that corroborate what settings they've used and seen the results.
Are these the correct places?

Any news? Will this miner be updated anytime soon?

There is a rumor that the developer is not more in the thema. Also he has a big quantity in his wallet that hasn't move for a long time... you should think in make a swap of miner or soon will not be able to mine ETH... Now you cannot ETC and in a pair of weeks eth too... have a look to lolMiner for example, great for both Nvidia and AMD, more in AMD but also works perfectly in mix Rigs

That's really too bad.  The application was working quite well up to this point.  I'm getting the notion that lolminer sounds like a replacement a lot of people are pointing to.
Can you point out the best place to get the app as well as best config settings?  I tried many and needed some help to get the command line just right to get my best rate.  Doubting I can use the same commands in lolminer
47  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux) on: December 02, 2020, 05:30:44 PM
After seen lot of people having problems now with Claymore, and the big crash of yesterday I have made an easy table of how to continue mining with another miner, that is able to mine with Nvidia and AMD.

....
or just switch to PhoenixMiner_5.3b_Windows , you basically can use the same Start.bat file , replace
EthDcrMiner64.exe to PhoenixMiner.exe and change the tag before your wallet address from -ewal to -wal .

If you are on windows you should run the miner program as a admin first ...

Well on one hand, I'm glad to see it wasn't just me freaking out as I walked into the same situation everyone else is this morning.  I also have AMD 8GB cards so I wasn't expecting this to occur.

I do hope that Claymore is aware and can update/fix the problem.  When first setting up my rigs I tried a few and Claymore's Dual was just the simplest/easiest to setup and get going.  Though I will take a look at PhoenixMiner again.

Am I to guess this has something to do with Eth2.0 being released yesterday?

Newbie to mining.  My rig is (12) MSI AMD Radeon RX 570 8G

Couple errors I keep running into;

-  most times it will load (10) of the (12) cards.  The last (2) end up with "OPenCL Init failure. Memory object allocation failure")
Sometimes a reboot will fix that.

- The biggest issue is that I just can't seem to connect to the stratum server.  It just keeps telling me it's unreachable on any of the (3) GRIN options.  I've been mining ETH without issue.  So not sure if the error is local or on the other side.

thanks hustleman.  I've been in IT for a number of years, but overclocking has always a little weird for me.  So taking me out of the comfort zone and learning about it all and wrapping my head around my limitations has been interesting these past few weeks.

And thanks, I'm glad to also understand where I sit with my GPU and mhs

and as for the GPU it's a version behind that.  I have the Radeon RX 570 Armor 8G, not the RX 580 Armor MK2 you're thinking of.
50  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / How to know your GPU limit? on: April 30, 2020, 07:40:53 PM
New to mining and wondering how I understand what my limit is.

I have (12) MSI/AMD rx570 8GB cards

When I first started I was around 9mhs/card.  After some help and a little tweaking I've got it running at 32mhs/card and mine about 0.05eth a day.

What I'm curious is, is that the top for that card?  Is 32mhs great? or should I be attempting 45mhs.  Obviously don't want to burn out a card and now that it's stable I'm ok to leave it for now.  Not sure if there's something simple like a chart to say you use this card and you should expect 'X'mhs. 

Just trying to gauge what my limits are
51  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux) on: April 27, 2020, 03:55:18 PM
The negative powlim is to reduce the amount of electricity the card uses to mine.  Reducing the powlim will save you on ur electric bill and will also reduce the amount of heat (temp) of the card.  Its all about finding the right efficiency with these GPUs. 

Thanks I appreciate that help and explanation.  Definitely helps in getting all this started.

New to mining, but have my rig setup and it's currently mining away.

12 x MSI/AMD Radeon RX 570 (8GB)

I'm reading through a number of posts and I'm seeing that my hashrate is really low per card compared to what others are mentioning.

Code:
ETH - Total Speed: 122.407 Mh/s
ETH: GPU0 10.192 Mh/s, GPU1 10.197 Mh/s, GPU2 10.227 Mh/s, GPU3 10.205 Mh/s, GPU4 10.205 Mh/s, GPU5 10.201 Mh/s, GPU6 10.195 Mh/s,
GPU7 10.191 Mh/s, GPU8 10.219 Mh/s, GPU9 10.202 Mh/s, GPU10 10.183 Mh/s, GPU11 10.191 Mh/s

Here's claymore's report on my system
Code:
GPU0 t=59C fan=91% P=99W, GPU1 t=56C fan=88% P=98W, GPU2 t=56C fan=91% P=97W, GPU3 t=51C fan=90% P=96W, GPU4 t=56C fan=90%
 P=98W, GPU5 t=57C fan=91% P=99W, GPU6 t=52C fan=92% P=101W, GPU7 t=54C fan=89% P=96W, GPU8 t=55C fan=90% P=98W, GPU9 t=58C
 fan=91% P=87W, GPU10 t=54C fan=91% P=90W, GPU11 t=62C fan=92% P=102W
Total GPUs power consumption: 1161 Watts

I've downloaded the most recent version of the AMD drivers.  
When I initially ran claymore I did have to run the command "-drivers uninstall" as it was telling me a problem with that.  Did that and that error has gone away during startup of mining.
I'm thinking the next step is to overclock?  But even with my gaming machine I'm touchy about that due to the damage it could inflict. Is there an app that will test where I can safely set it up to?

Have you switched to Compute mode instead of Graphics mode on the amd drivers?  If you haven't do it for each gpu.  Don't worry about overclocking.  Just don't put the memory over 2250.  so set powerlimit to -10, cclock 1150-1200 mclock 2100-2250.  If you go to 2250 and it starts getting invalid shares, back the memory down to 2225, 2200, 2175 ect, until it is stable.  Also at one of the -straps to ur command line to apply good bios timings to maximize cards potential.  

I hadn't actually switched to compute mode.  So I'll add [-y 1] but will do that for all cards automatically or do I need to list 0 to b?
I'll add the other recommendations
-powlim -10
-cclock 1200
-mclock 2250
and I'll try [-strap 1]

MOdified mclock to 2200 after a couple lockups.

Slightly better hashrate, but still not what I was expecting.

Code:
ETH - Total Speed: 142.059 Mh/s
ETH: GPU0 11.837 Mh/s, GPU1 11.837 Mh/s, GPU2 11.826 Mh/s, GPU3 11.844 Mh/s, GPU4 11.845 Mh/s, GPU5 11.829 Mh/s, GPU6 11.830 Mh/s, GPU7 11.844 Mh/s, GPU8 11.854 Mh/s, GPU9 11.826 Mh/s, GPU10 11.849 Mh/s, GPU11 11.838 Mh/s

GPU0 t=52C fan=93% P=70W, GPU1 t=50C fan=92% P=69W, GPU2 t=50C fan=94% P=68W, GPU3 t=46C fan=93% P=69W, GPU4 t=50C fan=93% P=70W, GPU5 t=50C fan=94% P=70W, GPU6 t=47C fan=94% P=71W, GPU7 t=48C fan=92% P=68W, GPU8 t=51C fan=94% P=70W, GPU9 t=51C fan=94% P=67W, GPU10 t=49C fan=94% P=67W, GPU11 t=54C fan=95% P=71W
Total GPUs power consumption: 830 Watts

To help further with your recommendations I figure I should add my BAT file.

Code:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool ssl://us2.ethermine.org:5555 -ewal [ewallet#] -eworker bigdog1 -dbg -1 -mport 3333 -mpsw [secret#] -etha 0 -tt 80 -tstop 90 -eres 0 -rxboost 1 -y 1 -powlim -10 -cclock 1200 -mclock 2200 -strap 1

pause

It doesn't appear that compute mode was enabled successfully. In order to enable compute mode you need to have ran the miner/bat file as admin. It's not just right click and run as administrator. You have to open the command line as administrator, path to the folder (Cd \folder\miner location\) run the .bat file from the command windows. After it runs for about a min, reboot your pc. Then you won't need to run it as administrator the next time. You should see hashrates in the high 28MH/s when done correctly.

Thanks for that.  That was the apparent issue.  After you mentioned it I did some digging and learned I needed to open the AMD software and the setting was still set to GRAPHICS and not COMPUTE.  So I fixed that.
Then I went back and re-ran my bat file as a proper admin and it's now hashing better.
Code:
ETH - Total Speed: 279.807 Mh/s, Total Shares: 175, Rejected: 0, Time: 00:44
ETH: GPU0 23.322 Mh/s, GPU1 23.318 Mh/s, GPU2 23.321 Mh/s, GPU3 23.310 Mh/s, GPU4 23.318 Mh/s, GPU5 23.308 Mh/s, GPU6 23.323 Mh/s,
 GPU7 23.314 Mh/s, GPU8 23.320 Mh/s, GPU9 23.311 Mh/s, GPU10 23.323 Mh/s, GPU11 23.319 Mh/s

I had to remove the powlim, cclock, mclock and strap settings as they kept crashing Windows.

I guess the question I have at this point is, is this the highest hashrate I should see out of my cards?  Should I be expecting more?
After removing the mclock and cclock settings I have played around with the MSI Afterburner app settings.  I don't know if they affect Claymore the same or not.  I seem to get a lot less errors out of it at least.
Currently the afterburner settings are;
power Limit +30
temp limit 90   (does this automatically with the increase in power)
core clock 1360
mem clock 1904
fan speed 100


Now that you have it in compute mode that will help in your efficiency.  no just do the following settings in bat.file and don't even use MSI afterburner.  -10 powlim cclock 1200 cvddc 820 mclock 2150 mvddc 900.  Give rxboost 1 and -strap 1 another try.  If that crashes the system try just -strap 1 without rxboost to see if it is stable.  All these cards should be in the 29-31mhs range.

Thanks, that just made a huge difference.  I'm now at 32.2mhs

Though I'm just looking back and I made a typo in my bat file and wrote   [-powlim +18]  instead of [-powlim -10]

why is it that it's typically a negative number?  I've seen this in a couple places and just wondering

I'm new to mining and understanding all that I'm seeing.

I've gotten my hashrate up from when I started, but I'm now seeing a discrepancy of my total shares that I don't understand.

On my rig it tells me that I have a total of 477 shares

On my dashbaord (ethermine.org) it tells me I have a total of 273

I do understand that the dev (Claymore) takes some my mining time for himself, and that is calculated as part of the total but it's not supposed to be that much.  So where's the rest?

Now that I'm getting a better/faster hashrate I'm watching the increase of what my rig is doing.  But what I don't understand is the difference in what I see regarding my shares on my screen vs. the Ethermine dashboard.

Currently my screen shows 465 shares
On the Ethermine Dashboard it shows 243

I do understand that the dev will mine every so often. But 50% of that doesn't seem right, does it?  No.  So trying to understand why the discrepancy.
The Ethermind dashboard has indicated that it checked in within the past 10min so I would think it should show proper numbers.

I hadn't actually switched to compute mode.  So I'll add [-y 1] but will do that for all cards automatically or do I need to list 0 to b?
I'll add the other recommendations
-powlim -10
-cclock 1200
-mclock 2250
and I'll try [-strap 1]

MOdified mclock to 2200 after a couple lockups.

Slightly better hashrate, but still not what I was expecting.

To help further with your recommendations I figure I should add my BAT file.

It doesn't appear that compute mode was enabled successfully. In order to enable compute mode you need to have ran the miner/bat file as admin. It's not just right click and run as administrator. You have to open the command line as administrator, path to the folder (Cd \folder\miner location\) run the .bat file from the command windows. After it runs for about a min, reboot your pc. Then you won't need to run it as administrator the next time. You should see hashrates in the high 28MH/s when done correctly.

Thanks for that.  That was the apparent issue.  After you mentioned it I did some digging and learned I needed to open the AMD software and the setting was still set to GRAPHICS and not COMPUTE.  So I fixed that.
Then I went back and re-ran my bat file as a proper admin and it's now hashing better.
Code:
ETH - Total Speed: 279.807 Mh/s, Total Shares: 175, Rejected: 0, Time: 00:44

I had to remove the powlim, cclock, mclock and strap settings as they kept crashing Windows.

I guess the question I have at this point is, is this the highest hashrate I should see out of my cards?  Should I be expecting more?
After removing the mclock and cclock settings I have played around with the MSI Afterburner app settings.  I don't know if they affect Claymore the same or not.  I seem to get a lot less errors out of it at least.
Currently the afterburner settings are;
power Limit +30
temp limit 90   (does this automatically with the increase in power)
core clock 1360
mem clock 1904
fan speed 100

I've downloaded the most recent version of the AMD drivers.  
When I initially ran claymore I did have to run the command "-drivers uninstall" as it was telling me a problem with that.  Did that and that error has gone away during startup of mining.
I'm thinking the next step is to overclock?  But even with my gaming machine I'm touchy about that due to the damage it could inflict. Is there an app that will test where I can safely set it up to?
