Claymore, any idea what the following might be?

4x RX470, win10:

10:56:51:597   1150   em hbt: 0, dm hbt: 0, fm hbt: 63,
10:56:51:597   1150   watchdog - thread 0, hb time 78
10:56:51:613   1150   watchdog - thread 1, hb time 219
10:56:51:613   1150   watchdog - thread 2, hb time 219
10:56:51:613   1150   watchdog - thread 3, hb time 94
10:56:51:613   1150   watchdog - thread 4, hb time 109
10:56:51:613   1150   watchdog - thread 5, hb time 234
10:56:51:613   1150   watchdog - thread 6, hb time 23828
10:56:51:628   1150   watchdog - thread 7, hb time 23688
10:56:51:628   1150   WATCHDOG: GPU error, you need to restart miner

Faulty GPU, or Riser?
Thanks in advance, if you have a XMR address I'll buy you an untraceable beer^^

Put your mining batch file shortcut in the startup folder by going Run > shell:startup

Next go Run > netplwiz > Untick "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer"

@Claymore Which AMD driver should we use for AMD RX470s and RX480s on Windows?

What average are you reporting on your pool on a GTX1070, and what did you pay for your GTX1070?

My rig of 6x RX480s with optimized power runs under 700W. That's 140MH/s+ if I'm conservative.

I'll reach ROI before you.

Building another 4x rigs as soon as the rest of the RX480s and risers arrive.

I've looked at the GTX1070 thoroughly before settling on the RX480.

But yes I do agree that we need a fallback plan in case Eth doesn't work out. (But it should)

In either case the RX480 just has far better compute capability per watt.
The amount of the Compute Units(AMD)/ShaderMultiprocessors(Nvidia) are just superior on the RX480 compared to the GTX1070.

36x CUs on the RX480 compared to 15x SMs on the GTX1070

4x SEs (Shader Engines) RX480
3x GPCs (Graphics Processing Clusters) GTX1070
Verdict = same

9x CU (Compute Units) per Shader Engine RX480
5x TPCs (Texture Processing Cluster) per GPC GTX1070 (Each TPC Contains 1x SM)   
Verdict = RX480 wins




My power is free as I can use as much as I need at the moment. Even if that means 10kWh. Included in your rent usually means a small amount for household use.

Please stop shilling for Nvidia. Lyra2v2 and neoscrypt more profitable than eth? Care to show any proof? From my calculations Ethereum and Ethereum classic show the best profitability.

Also have you looked at the OpenCL implementation for Nvidia card in Windows? It sucks. I have a GTX1080 for gaming only and it honestly sucks for mining. I use RX480s for mining eth as they have the best Ethereum hashrate per watt and Hashrate to Dollar.

And resell value. For one the AMD cards are near impossible to find whereas there are more than enough GTX cards available. The RX480 had a reference stock 25 times the GTX1080 and GTX1070 combined and it all sold out.

The GTX1070 is a great card for gaming, but the RX480 is far better at mining. It uses less power, you can run 4x RX480s on a single quality 80PLUS Gold 750W PSU if you optimize the power usage settings. The GTX 1070 uses far more power to reach the same hashrate.

Further, saying that someone steals power is very rude. I'm in a situation at the moment where I can get industrial power for free with my rent. Many other people have the same arrangements where they live.

Check your other apps. MSI Afterburner and the ASUS overclocking apps both interfere with Wattman. I closed those apps and everything is fine
