Is anyone running GTX 1070s and experiencing wild variations in hash rates second by second? Full speed hash rate is just over 30 Mh/s but I'm seeing it swing between 19, 24, and 30 continuously. It was more stable before, not sure what changed. It's only 51C so it's not throttling due to temperature.
What memory? What settings OC and Powerslide? What intensity? Try 8 or less... 8 is the default, right? I'll try lowering it tomorrow and see what happens. |

What memory? What settings OC and Powerslide? 8GB. 90% power limit, +500 memory OC, -100 core underclock. I've been running with these settings for almost two months but suddenly in the last day or so it's thrashing the hash rate. Tried multiple miners (NiceHash and Claymore 10) and both do the same thing. I'll reboot tomorrow when I have time to monitor it. |

No way. We're back to earning $1/card/day and your talking about over 1 year ROI on this ASSUMING mining doesn't get any less profitable but looking at network growth over the last 2 months you'll never get your ROI on these.
Yeah it's safe to say you can forget about these. Its much cheaper and way more profitable to build your own rig in the long run. A big plus to building your own rig is the resale value of the GPUs. If and when mining eventually becomes unprofitable you would be stuck with this big behemoth of a machine that can't do anything. What's to stop you from tearing the unit down and parting it out, same as a home built rig? |

I can include the DAG recreation time for ETH epoch into devfee time so every hour you will get about 15 seconds of mining more.
That would be a very fair move of you!  Till now it resets the dev fee timer due to DAG recreation. So you tried holding both DAG in memory? Is this a very hard thing to program? Otherwise this could get optional for devices with more than 4 gb RAM. So to say it would be without warranty an just to play with it. Maybe it is more stable than you think. Would save time where there is no mining. Good for you and good for us. But not resetting the dev fee timer would be good as well. I just don't like the cards to drop out of full load to cool down a bit and than get hot aggain. Just the same temperature and load is the best I (personally) think. I agree this would be a fair move and a good compromise. With ETH mining becoming more and more competitive many of us are turning to other coins to mine. With the DAG recreation delay, the 1% fee often turns into 2-3% lost revenue as the biggest loss in mining time is because of the switch to a new DAG and back every time the DEV fee kicks in. Another idea is maybe a longer DEV mining period but less often, say once every 2 hours instead of once per hour. I know it is a balance between earning a fair fee and trying to minimize those who use tricks (miner restarts) to avoid paying it, but this would also help out with the interruptions. Yeah the DAG switching issue is annoying, it's small but still is lost time. It's worse the more cards you have in a rig. |

Hello people,
I've RX470 cards.
I'm trying to use the AMD blockchain driver to deal with DAG file issue that we are having.
But MSI afterburner does not respond to it and I can't overclock the cards. I've used the afterburner beta and applied the fixes, but still no respond.
Here my steps:
Fully updated win10. I removed the old driver with AMD clean uninstaller > Reboot > Installed the blockchain driver. > Since the I've edited the card's BIOS, I used the driver patcher BEFORE rebooting the system, All options are found, patch done. > Reboot. > And after system comes up, Card is good, but Afterburner Beta still can't overclock it.
I tried to overclock with the Claymore itself, which may I add, is pretty easy and effective, but the problem I get is, that I can only overclock the GPU 0. 6 next cards (I have 7 cards on the rig) won't get the settings. I used the code like this:
" -cclock 1100 -mclock 2050"
or
"-cclock 1100,1100,1100,1100,1100,1100,1100 -mclock 2050,2050,2050,2050,2050,2050,2050" (Or different values)
And no results. I only can overclock GPU0.
I could use some help. I really need to overclock these cards.
With current price and difficulty, I'm starting to get hurt.
I have never gotten Afterburner to work with any of my AMD cards and I spent a LOT of time on the problem. |

What version of Ubuntu are you using, 14 as they recommend? 32 bit or 64 or does it not matter? |

Well the ALLCOINS and ALLPOOLS settings in the Claymore section isn't working again. This is really annoying.
Can you let us know in more detail what isn't working here. If you click the Diagnostics button, can you see that Awesome Miner pass this information to the Claymore miner? Or is it passed to Claymore, but it still doesn't work? Ok I discovered something. If I add ALLPOOLS 1 to the Claymore section of the pool configuration it won't work unless the pool is selected as the default pool for the miner. If the miner is using a different pool and I switch to the other pool it won't take the ALLPOOLS setting. Unfortunately the Diagnostics button appears to only work with the default pool. That made this very difficult to troubleshoot as I couldn't find any way to see the actual command line that was being passed to Claymore unless I made the pool the default pool and of course it works when I do that. So to summarize: - I added ALLPOOLS 1 to the Claymore section. - If my default pool for the miner is some other pool then when I switch to the pool with the ALLPOOLS setting it doesn't work, Claymore complains that I need to set ALLPOOLS or ALLCOINS - If I set the default pool for the miner to this pool it works fine PS. this is DwarfPool's Expanse pool that I'm testing with but the problem should occur on any pool that requires ALLPOOLS or ALLCOINS And just adding the command line argument (in Managed Miner Properties for example) like this, it doesn't work either? -allcoins 1 No, same behavior, it will only work if the pool is the miner's default pool. My workaround for this issue at this moment is to use templates to switch pools. That's more convenient than modifying the miner's default pool and restarting the miner. I'd still like to see this issue fixed though, it's very confusing, took me a lot of time to figure out what was going on. |

I've noticed that sometimes on my ETH transactions that the from or to address is recognized as belonging to Bittrex. How is that done? Is there some component of the address that identifies it or is that a feature of the ETH system?

what coins are now the best to dualmine? ETH/ETC + SIA?
I'm mining ETH + LBC I'm mining ETH + DCR, thinking switch to EXP + DCR or still profitable ETH? The last few days have been pretty close between ETH and EXP but at the moment EXP has dropped some. It popped to the top of the list for awhile a few days ago. The problem with EXP is it seems very variable in the payout, not sure if it's because block times are so long with it or what. DCR is very profitable for the second coin, haven't tried LBC, maybe I will. What's a good LBC pool? |

Question: I'm evaluating AM by running it directly on my mining rig. If I want to move AM to another PC will the existing AM installation on the miner act as a remote agent or will I need to install the remote agent app? If I do need to install remote agent do I need to uninstall AM first or can they exist in parallel?

Dual mining Decred is worth it I guess. Adds a good 20% extra to the revenue, though of course the 1% miner fee and extra power eats up some of that but still it's a postive,

Anyone mining EXP in the last few days? I ran for three hours and only got .132 EXP, that's terrible, I should have gotten at least double that.

I imagine that mining is not possible with AMD and Nvidia in the same Rig correct?  Yes you can mix cards. I am currently running two 570s, two 580s, a GTX 1070 and a GTX 1060 in one rig. The only problem I had was with each RX card I added I had to uninstall and reinstall the AMD driver before Windows would work with all the AMD cards. Nvidia cards are so much nicer, they just work, no BIOS modding or anything. If 1070s were < $300 that's all I would use. |

Does anyone else get a lot of stale shares almost all the time on Ethermine?
