1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum mining with GTX 1060 3GB cards? No longer possible? DAG/OS issues on: March 29, 2018, 02:37:46 PM
Configuration is OK, it was mining as I said without problems 24/7. Today at 2 in the morning it stopped, soon also your cards will no longer be able to mine ETH.
What coin are you suggesting to mine? As far I can see everything will go so down that we but GPUs for nothing...Waste of money, we will never be in profit, at least I know for myself. I'm mining from 2. January 2018.

All the best

Yes that is correct. So mining ETH with 3 GB cards will soon be over for everyone. I already put -eres 0,  lidag 1 I will try today, when I arrive home.
Thanks for suggestions.

Best,
J.







As far as I know, it still possible as of today, some users were able to solve this with the ff:

in Claymore

-lidag 1
-eres 0

DDU + 376.33


Also taken from Bro Vann's comments kudos to him:

it's a problem with Windows 10 allocating 19-20% of GPU memory, or in the case of 3GB cards, ~600 MB of VRAM. The current dag size is 2.39 GB, which is why on Windows 10 the Dag file is having trouble being allocated to memory on a 3GB card. The -eres switch and other workarounds are only temporary patches until the Dag gets bigger with every new epoch. Ultimately the longer term solution for 3GB cards is to move to an OS that allocates less VRAM, like Windows 7 that only allocates ~5% or Linux.




Many thanks. Following configuration actually work for me:

Claymore

-lidag 1
-eres 0

DDU + 376.33  (NVIDIA drivers)

I just hope it will work for a long time...

Best,
J.

Hi
I have the same problem from today 29 March 2018. It seems that our GPUs are useless for mining ETH from today since DAG is more than 3 GB... I'm using GTX 1060 3GB...
Until today same configuration was mining 24/7 from 2 January.... no system changes, no driver changes, nothing.... Also I'm running WIN10. But problem is general not just for us, we will have to mine something else not ETH...

 Cry

Best, J.
