1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v11.5 (Windows/Linux) on: March 21, 2018, 11:22:12 AM
Hi Lexlima.  I am using using claymore 11.2 as this is the most stable my rigs has ever been.

your fan probably come on of off due to how hot the card goes. its is probably at around 45-55 degrees c.

below is my config file which has been running stable for 9 days now.

7 card system, with RX580 8gb cards.  cards reach a tmp of around 60 degrees. 6 X powercolor cards fan spin all the time, Sapphire card which fan goes on and off.

running amd bitchain drivers and cards have been modded. Still getting 30Mh's per card

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555 -ewal 0x0f1c8f60fa11079829db7cfe8a383b2c4763bc6a.miner -epsw x -mode 1 -ftime 10 -esm 0 -tt 60,60,60,60,60,60,30 -fanmin 60,60,60,60,60,60,10 -fanmax 100,100,100,100,100,100,40 -tstop 72,72,72,72,72,72,72 -cclock 1100 -mclock 2100 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 860 -wd 0 -eres 3 -gser 2  

see how you get on.

Vik

Vik,

Thanks man for this i will sure try this as 11.2 seems more stable for sure.

Can i ask you to make me a command line for my cards.

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal ETHEREUM_WALLET.WORKER_NAME -epsw x -tstop 85 -tt 65 -fanmin 75 -fanmax 100 -cclock 1200 -mclock 2250 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 850

I know it is a lot but i am new to claymore overclocking.

I am only used to MSI and there i was using 1200/2200/-96V
Those were the only things i chaned and fan fixed at 70 %.

So you are saying that because my cards dont get too hot they are not spinning all the time?

Is there a way to keep them spininng?

I looked at your code and some thing i am fimiliar with but this commands i dont know what they are and i read it on Claymore readme.txt but cant seem to understand.

 -mode 1 -ftime 10 -esm 0  -wd 0 -eres 3 -gser 2

This setting i cant seem to understand.

I know i ask too much but i would be really appriciated if you could help.

I'm having a problem with a crash or lockup when starting.  I've tried 11.3, 11.4 and 11.5.  All exhibit the same issue.

Claymore runs great when I don't set any GPU parameters in the config file.  However, as soon as I add any clock or voltage adjustments to the GPUs, one of 3 things happens when I start the software:
1. BSOD with Thread Stuck in Device Driver error
2. System just locks up (no mouse movement or num lock), requiring a hard power cycle
3. It starts properly but eventually exhibits failure 1 or 2 after an hour or two.

When I say the problem happens with any GPU parameters, I've tested this by using all stock settings (the same that the GPUs default to when I don't set anything in the config), but I still have the problem.  So, the problem is not settings outside of a stable operating range.

The crashes usually occur after "POOL/SOLO Version", but not all the time.

I checked the logs but nothing stands out.  The logs look normal then just stop when the crash happens. 

I'm running a rig with 3xRX570 and 3xRX580 using the blockchain driver on Win10.

I've tried running -oldkernels 1, but that actually made it worse.  I couldn't start mining at all.  I always get OpenCL errors, even with no clock or voltage adjustments.

I tried -gser1 and -gser 2, but neither of those helped.

Is there something else I should be looking at?

Check that your power supply is up to the job, a lot of crashing problems can easily put down to an underrated PSU. Use a power meter to check what you are taking at-the-wall and make sure you have some power to spare to account for losses in the PSU itself, and any spikes on start-up.

Hello,

I cheked that already and everything seem fine. I have 2 EVGA PSU G3 750W for 6 GPUS RX580 Special Edition so i think it is more then enough. At this point i am out of solutions.

I guess i will have to keep switchind drivers and Claymores so that i can find right combination. I blame MSI AB for everyhing. Before this Windows Update everyhitng was working fine and rig never had problems when i overclocked with MSI

Hi people,

Can anyobody help me i am going mad.

I have 5 rig with 6 x RX 580 Special Edition. On all five rigs i have a fresh install of Windows 10 Home 1709. Fisrt my problem started when i could make MSI AB work with all 6 cards (it only recognize 3 cards) so i had to switch to Trixx.

I installed Claymore Dual Miner V 11.3, 11.4 and 11.5 and on all machines same problem. I watch them for few hours and everything is working just fine.No memory errors no nothing everything is perfect. Then suddenly overnight or in the morning some of them shutdown randomly(Blue screen). First i thought it was because of overclocking then when i realize it isnt (beacuse i set them to default), i switched to 11.2 because i read here it is the last stable version.

Now i have new problem. Trixx sudennly bugs out randomly on different rigs at a different time, stop working and all my cards stops working too.

I am desperate in need of help. I tried everything dont know what is the problem.

What i did before this:

Install Windows 10 64 bit Home V1709
Install new latest AMD drivers (compute mode)
tried MSI Ab but cant read 6 cards
uninstall all programs i dont need via CC cleaner and Miningtweaks. bat like Cortana, People, Xbox etc.
Set virtaul memory, power plan all other stuff that i was doing on the previous version of Windows 10. The reason i cant go back to old version of Windows is because it keeps updating.

So my question is what should i do to stop shutdowns?
How can i use MSI with new AMD drivers and Windows 1709?
What Claymore should i use?
Why is Trixx suddenly stop to work?

Hope someone gives me a solution.

Thanks

MSI Afterburner won't work with the latest drivers and more than 3 cards. There is no Group Policy Editor in the Home version of Windows 10, so I don't think you can disable Windows Update driver updates. RX 580's don't need the pixel patcher with a modded Bios, only the RX 470/480/570's.

I'm using v11.5 with the latest Adrenaline drivers in Compute mode on a 13 card RX 480/580 rig with ZERO problems or invalid shares and it's very stable. You can also set the overclock/undervolt/fans directly in the Claymore config or .bat file.

First of all thanks for the advice,

I tried to overclock via Claymore so i add this command:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal ETHEREUM_WALLET.WORKER_NAME -epsw x -tstop 85 -tt 65 -fanmin 75 -fanmax 100 -cclock 1200 -mclock 2250 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 850

I use Claymore 11.5 . So what happened is that i monitored miner from 10 PM yesterday for about 2 hours and there was no problem. This morning when i looked at it it reported few GPU errors during the night. Miner is still working so i left to see when will it shut down. What i noticed is that with this command fans spins randnomly, 3 GPU spin while 3 others dont and vice versa. Sometimes it spins all 6 GPUs. Is there something wrong with my command or is there a line that i can control all fans for example to spin for 70 % all the time?

I have Sapphire RX 580 Special Edition and use this overclocks with Trixx and there are no errors just miner shutdown so i dont think it is the overclocks because they are not pushed too hard. Today on another rig i am trying 11.2 to see if it is more stable from 11.5. After that i dont know what else to try.

P.S. When i touched GPUs from the rig that i started testing yesterday i can feel the cards are very cold so i dont know how they can report GPU error that is connected to overclocking.Before this only happened when cards got too much heat.I am guessing that in the time when fans dont spin they get more heat and then thay report error so i need them to work all the time but i dont know the command line.

Thanks everybody for help,

I will sure try this tool but as i am in business of selling complete rigs customers i sell to are used to simple solutions (few clicks and mining starts).

I am afraid if i start to use this tool which i am sure i will learn how to use, i wont be able to give them support as i do that as a part of my service.Everybody i sell to are used to MSI because mostly those are the people that dont know so much about computers but wants to mine.

About MSI AB i use latest version with latest AMD drivers.

About that windows update i disabled it (first thing i do), i also disabled everything in Task Scheduler which is connected to Windows Update.

What i notices about Trixx is that before he shuts down it seem like something is happening in windows that is causing this shutdowns. Like some programs are opening by themselfs.

Any other soultion guys?


overdrivenNTool is easy to use, it might not have a fancy UI but it gets the job done.

You just have to run it once before the miner starts to set the clock and voltages, like I mentioned in my previous reply.

Trixx and Afterburner run in the background all the time, and that might be the reason of your rig crashing.

Eliminating those programs will increase stability.

Try it out, if the problem persists, let us know Wink

I am guessing thay cause this problems but on Windows 10 old version eveything was fine. The strangest thing is that i have one rig that was updated by force on Windows 10 1709 and still have Windows Update assistant, I literally didnt change anything and it is working fine for 2 months. Problem began when i started to install fresh version of Windows on my rigs. I read somewhere that if I use miningtweaks. bat for removing Windows Apps (Cortana, Xbox,Mail, People...), Windows UI starts messing up (Windows Defender pop up, Control  Panel Pop Up) but as i watch and monitor rigs i cant seem to catch that moment. Only when i sleep it happens. What an irony i cant sleep at night Smiley))

I've got another solution for you:

1) Overdrive
2) -r 300 at the end of your bat. It will restart each 4 hours

worked for me

So if i am getting things right?

1. Overdrive - by this you mean overdrivetoll?
2. If i use this it will reset whole miner (close and start again) or it will just reload like when i press R while i am in miner

Sorry if i am boring but i just cant seem to find solution. I will try overdriven tool for sure but i hope MSI AB update their program because all the rigs a sold already months ago was with MSI AB and everything was working just fine. I guess you know how it is when you get used to something it is hard to change especcialy when it comes to computers.

Anyway thank you very much for the time and the advice

msi AB actually supports 8 cards.  Are you using the latest version?  However, I use overdrivenNTool for overclocking. 
The software custom fan control on AB is better so I use AB only for that.

You can actually disable the Windows update by disabling the update service itself
http://www.thewindowsclub.com/turn-off-windows-update-in-windows-10

Any claymore version should work imo.

driver 9.14.10.01293, Crimson Beta for the GPUs
4.4.0 Beta for AF
Claymore 11.5
Remember the patch for the drivers
 Get some 31.4 for eth and 1700 for verge

Got a few Nitros 580 8 gb

Thanks for the answer but i alreadu tried that. For some strange reasong those drivers wont work for me because i can only get 22Mhs. Once i move to new drivers and set Compute mode they jump to 28 MHS. It is like its not working with none of my rigs. Am i doing something wrong? Bios moded, patched, everything by the book
