@sxemini [/quote] Dude zilliqa has 1024mb DAG, it stay on epoch 0 forever ^^ (extra-dag-epoch 0  ) and eth has around 4.258GB and not 5GB DAG. Look in the log. You mine on windows10? It reserve much vram on nvidia cards. But i am on the way to reduce vram usage on windows10. Maybe i found something in the last days. 1060 6GB had around 700mb free in the past, now after windows10 update and driver 430.86 i have 1400mb free on 11 cards and 1 card has 1600mb free. The cards can hold Zil and ETH DAG at the same time. I'll try another rig with 6GB cards, there are only 600mb free per card [/quote] @sxemini May you share the direction you have taken to achieve those amount of free Vram? I am following the same objective with a rig with 650 MB free/card but I was able to increase it up to 950, that is good but not enough. I Removed everything not hidden that may run in background, almost Cleared all the effect of ShellExperienceHost.exe , but I am short of 150 mb ... |

And why would they all of a sudden become unprofitable? Care to explain yourself?
When Eth will go POS, 20M rx 580 will try to find something else to mine. If just 400.000 wil go to mine RVN the RVN nethash will double. Because the number of block is the same, it will be divided by twice the miner, so profitability per miner will be half of the current. The same apply to ALL the other minable coin.
In reality, there are not 20 M rx 580 that are mining eth.
The asic must mine etash, so they will move from eth to etc that will be the one suffering the most in term of profitability.
As far as I know , RVN and ERG cann't be mined by any asic

Man, this discussione is from 2018. You cann't mine eth with that kind of 4GB card at reasonable speed in 2021..
Go to whattomine and see by yourself what's best for you
You will see that you can mine 5.5 $day in total of erg with 6 of that card.
ERG is mined with autolikos2 algos.
SRBMiner and TRM are the two best miner out there
You will be able to reach around 25 MHs per card.
In order to do so, is better to increase the frequency of the Lexa core.
YOu will find more info in the threads of the miners
Trtl is another option, as you can see by yourself. 10 MHS / card is about right with that algo and that card

Mining with Gpus is not cool( and profitable) anymore. Better leave, slowly, and jump on the CHIA bandwagon.
Less risk and more rewards. Once ethereum will die, erg, rvn and the rest can't substain 1 /10 of the miners of ethereum, so difficulty will increase and it will become less and less profitable.

No, you can't overclock where you want . Higher the memory speed, higher the chance to have hw errors so am 01001001 became 01000101. At a certain level, it crash, near that level there are HW errors. So you must stay below the crash level and below the hw error level
Like driving a car, you know ? Mining is not a dragster race, its an endurance.

Just lower the memory to 1000 and the fan .....

12 gpu probably but you are correct. 70 watt each and 31.5 mhs each. you need a sizeable ssd and a good amount of ram and it will work like a charme

The faster eth miner in this case is not that much important ( unless its really faster and its a different story).
Its more important to minimize the switch time between VTC and ZIL.
So, for the 4GB card, it means to create the Zil dag in memory without loosing to much in speed during VTC time but being ready when zil time comes.

"I have been doing my research and not sure what you were looking at"
YOU ARE WRONG.
that guy was trying to help you as you came here and he was very kind as he gifted you his time
And now I am loosing 2 minutes of my life to explain to you that:
LCC IS NOT LTC
LiteCoinCash is not LiTeCoin
You can mine LCC with Sha256 and you can mine LTC with Script
End of the time you deserve + 2Minutes

8Gb of memory, an I3 6100, 64 gb of virtual memory on the SSD for 4 RTX 3070, 1 580 8gb,1 Rx550 4 gb, that I used to "fill the slots" while two 1660 super are on the road.
I was thinking it was enough.
do I have to try adding memory ?

there is a way to avoid afterburner and using Nvidia inspector or better with internal command of LOlminer to fix voltages fr windows ?
I love the way that Lolminer handle the dualmining but with afterburner doesn't seem to be stable

https://imgur.com/M504SuRSorry, I can't stop the eth miner and add /try other if I am not phisically there: I've got trouble, at stock with mining pool hub.. with shares as I can't have one valid on the first 100... Speed , as you can see, is not that bad even after 2 minutes... Zergpool is the same. Haven't registered with hashalot etc yet ideas ? I will be back there during the week end

Sorry to disturb.
there was an old version of your miner working with etash ?
I am looking anywhere till cgminer.. to find one etash cpu miner, so please understand if I disturb.

Thank you Script. I will try to explain better.
Spminer 4 major difference from the previous versions is the possibility to dual mine VTC+ZIL.
In order to dual mine with two different algos, or you need a miner that work in in multimode, only one being srbminer as far as I know, or you need zilswitcher and two different miners one for etash and one for VTC.
As you can see in the new release (if you have opened it..) there are 8 bat files, and 4 of them are for dual mining.
if you edit one of the dual mine bat there is not mention of zilwallet,so I supposed that spminer 4 does take care only of the VTC part, simply stopping mining when from a pool(different from the VTC one) an epoch 0 will be sent.
so another etash only miner need to be used and probably "linked" by zilswitcher
together with a zil pool, tha can be like ezil.me where you double mine eth+zil or like shardpool where you just mine shardpool when epoch 0 comes
so, which ETASH miner has been tested ?, in which ZIL pool?
simply because I tried to finalize a bat file that works with my rigs and I was not successful with zilminer (doesn't have a documented function of use /disable a gpu) that I need having 4/8 gb mixed rigs

Which etash miner have you used for testing with spminer4 ?
with which pool?

I don't know how you had phoenix working... , so I don't know what you did wrong.
But Phoenix is an etash miner for GPU not a cpu miner.
For using your tool at best, you need to use a cpuminer.
go to moneroocean and install their xmrig miner.
It will help you decide which algoritm does fit better with your cpu by benchmarkig and autoswitching the miner in the most convenient pool( of theirs) and you will be paid in monero

what is your target ? learning, $$$ as possibile or ?
|
|
|
|
|
in the zip of the miner there is a directory called example.
The 2nd,3rd and 4th example explain how to use the functions you need
|
|
|
|
|
as far as I know, now VTC its GPU only
