1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Optiminer/Zcash v1.5.0 (GPU, Linux, AMD) on: January 30, 2017, 08:08:06 PM
Is this speed ok or I can go higher?
Using 5X480s with 1500 straps
Ubuntu 16.04
amdgpu-pro 16.40


How did you get that speed, can you give me the sample of your bat file, I also using rx 480 8gb stock rom and only got 200-230hs

The fact that you said "bat file" says it all. The post you quoted is running linux, not Windows. Optiminer even says in his README that the best performance for the RX series is obtained on linux, because the Windows AMD driver doesn't provide some of the extensions he needs to get the best optimization, at this point. Claymore is in the same boat, although he isn't fond of linux, so ...


How do you change straps to 1500? On ubuntu 16.04 with amdgpu 16.50 I am getting 290 S/s with RX480-8G on stock cards.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best Altcoin to invest in for 2017 and WHY !!! on: January 26, 2017, 01:32:19 PM
Coin 1: Bitcoin

Why:

- Heading towards mainstream adoption
- Lightning network in 2017
- Most advanced coin
- No IPO/ICO 100% fair distribution

Coin 2: Litecoin

Why:

- Development is moving at a very fast pace
- Might go up with bitcoin if it goes up
- No IPO/ICO 100% fair distribution
- Remains strong as ever after more than 5 years of operation

Coin 3: Peercoin

Why:

- Development has picked up a lot with projects such as peerassets, peerticker, V0.6 protocol update etc.
- Running for more than 4 years
- Oldest POS coin
- No IPO/ICO 100% fair distribution 

Coin 4: Dogecoin

(Yes im serious) Grin

Why:

- Running for almost 3 years
- Strong community
- Gets people used to crypto
- Has some adoption as a tipping currency

Coin 5: Counterparty

Why:

- Running for almost 3 years
- Assets on bitcoin are booming as result counterparty value is rising
- Has real life utility with projects like foldingcoin giving counterparty value

Thanks - was wondering why, when I just received my Nano Ledger S hardware wallet, Dogecoin was one of the six coins it could store. The 6 coins on it right now are Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Dash, Zcash, and Dogecoin.

XFX RX 470 or MSI RX 470 ?

Please help to decide which one is better for Claymore miner?

I am planing to set up a new farm soon!
Thank you in advance!

If you are setting up a number of new systems, you may want to calculate if the annual power savings on lower power RX480 boards makes up for the cost of buying more systems compared to building machines with R9 Fury. If you are less than $0.10 per kwhr getting the R9 Fury's works better for Zcash.

You need to test the power from the wall on both types of systems, compare it to the hash rate, and make the calculations.

See my testing and calculations here:

ok, I see I can buy the lending bot for $5. That's cool, I found the link.

Is there a way to buy the trading bot yet?

You can buy it direct from me here on the forum. Just send me a PM.

Thanks

RootCoin

ok, I'll try the lending bot first. If it's not beyond my ability to use, I'll contact you about the trading bot. Thx

How did you get on with the bot?
lending bot works great. It has been placing many small loans non-stop on Poloniex. I can't imagin lending money on Poloniex without it.

I also set it up to transfer money from the exchange over to lending automatically, so it's doing that also. I deposited some Bitcoin then when enough confirmations went through it started lending it automatically.

The other day I configured the bot to stop lending Bitcoin, so I could transfer some back to the exchange and buy a little bit of MAID. I did that, then reconfigured the bot to start lending everything then, and it did it.

I was a little concerned that some of the loans were 60 day, as that seemed like a long time, so I reconfigured the bot to loan a maximum of 6 days. But the daily rates on a 60 day loan can be a lot higher, so I changed it back, and even though it sometimes makes 60 day loans they seem to get paid back in a few days anyway.

I need to look at the lending page more, to figure out maybe some other coins to start lending. It's difficult to wait for a coin to cycle back down in price to acquire it. I figure I'll just eventually build up a lending stash of different coins to take advantage of when people want to sell them short.

For usage, I run it in a screen session on a VPS server. Then a friend wanted me to run it on his account, so I created a second directory with a different configuration file, started a second screen session, and are now running two lending bot sessions with one VPS on two different screen sessions.

Thanks for making this bot available at such a reasonable price!

Here's a video I made today showing comparison of T-9 11.5 vs. S-9 12.0 variable frequency power draw at the wall. Uses more power, but runs cooler.

At 210 VAC
T-9 uses 1352 W, hashes at 11.5, highest chip temp 80C

S-9 uses 1329 W, hashes at 12.0, highest chip temp 94C

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHJzo7A312c

whats is you room temp ?
and S9 batch ?
because latest batches have less temp than earlier one
It was the S9 batch 16 available in about November 2016. Room temp was about 60 deg F

anyone ever get linux version stable ?
even watchdogs , do not reboot -_- ... speed is nothing without control ! Cheesy  Roll Eyes
i didn't try 1.5

Stable on Ubuntu 16.04 with amdgpu-pro 1.50 and Optiminer 1.5. I have about 11 boxes running this way with R9 390, RX470, RX480, and R9 Fury.

Thanks for the video Jack.  How strange the S9 is using so much more power than the stated specs on the web site.  I think they quoted something like 1079w for the 12th S9 so that is significantly above the spec. 

Really looks like the T9 may be a winner then just based on the cooler temps and the power use looks like it isn't as bad as was stated in the spec for that unit.  Good to know!  The T9 may turn out to be a good unit!  Please keep us posted.

Well, in the first video I made I compared it to a 550 fixed frequency S-9 at 11.85 TH. The older 550 speed S-9 used only 1178 watts. I think when Bitmain changed to variable frequency they didn't update the specs on the S-9

Version 1.5.0 released!

[1.5.0] Support for more pools.
[1.5.0] Allow again extranonces up to 28 bytes (fixed mining problems with nicehash).
[1.5.0] 1-2% increase in hash speed for device specific kernels.



Thanks for posting this. I wrote a howto on setting this up on a headless linux box. Getting 1710 H/s with stock BIOS on a six GPU rig running XFX RX480 8G:



Here's the howto - I still prefer R9 cards for mining Zcash:

I don't know if it works with MOD bios. I don't mess around with that - maybe someone else knows. It works just fine with RX480's. Here's a picture of Claymore 11.1 linux on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS using 6 RX480's:
>img clipped<

did you ever tried Optiminer on Ubuntu 16.04? People get 280-290 H/s on RX480 AFTER fees, not before (what you are posting).
Small difference, but still.

I get 305 per RX480 with optiminer
I have 18 RX480, do the maths, its a huge difference.
ok, I installed optiminer 1.4 on ubuntu 16.04 with amdgpu-pro-16.50. Yes, it's faster on my XFX RX480-8G GPU's. Getting about 285 H/s per GPU.

I guess it's worth running it if it's stable, I just need to redo my log monitoring application.

ok, so I can give optiminer a try. It says on the github page to use linux driver 16.40.5. I can't find that. I can find 16.40, and 16.50, but not 16.40.5. What's the linux driver version to use?

Just finished reading the whole topic, but still couldn't find what I was looking for. It's said that hashrate in Linux is faster for newer cards, but how much faster? What are the hashrates for RX 470 4GB and RX 480 8GB in Linux and Windows? For Linux noobs like myself it'll take the whole day to read all the guides out there and setup a Linux system so it would be nice to know what kind of difference in hashrate is there before spending all that time and effort. Smiley

I have not used optiminer on Linux. But if you want a complete guide on how to set up headless Ubuntu 16.04 with AMD gpupro 16.50 drivers, I wrote one of those.

At the end of the howto, just download and run Optiminer instead of Claymore:

optiminer 1.4.0 card  5 - r9 390 -1755 h/s  Grin

Hey, I just realized I have an R9 390 in one of my boxes! I swung all my Ethereum miners over to Zcash because I reran the profitability numbers on Coinwarz and figured it was the thing to do.

So with Claymore 11.1 on Linux on a stock R9 390 I'm getting 345 H/s before dev fees. Pretty close to the Optiminer number because 5x 345 would be 1725

You're right, what I am posting is before fees. 2% of 260 is 5, so after fees it would be about 255.

I have not tried Optiminer. Might have to do that. Depends on how well it works on Sapphire Nitro R9 fury. Since Ethereum looks like it is not going proof of stake in 2017 I'll probably swing my RX480's back to Ethereum and keep mining Zcash on R9 Fury cards.

I like the new Claymore 11.1 linux version. Getting over 2500 S/sec on my 6-rig R9 Fury rig!



That's a picture of the command line output of the Claymore application. This is stock R9 Fury - the one with 3 fans on it.


Any tutorial for a Linux Rookie on how to set it up for Claymore mining?  Also does OC the Memory or Core clock boost the speed past 420 or no?

If your new to Linux just use the Simplemining OS (https://simplemining.net/) just select the claymore 11.1 miner and away you go..


Does this work for GPU with MOD bios?  Friend said he tried this a few months back and it wouldn't detect his RX cards.  He downloaded the RX versions as they have R and RX.

Thinking of buying a 390 for mining, and I know many people have already asked this, but what are the stock hashrates for a single card in claymore 11.1?
Thanks in advance.

420 H/s - see my post above yours for picture of output
Thanks for the answer, I actually meant how much hashrate per r9 390 card.
Or is it 420 h/s for each 390 card?
I saw your previous post and thought you meant 420 hashrate for each fury card.


Just asking because 420 hashrate for one 390 seems too good to be true.

Sorry, you're correct. It is not R9 390 cards, its R9 Fury cards I referenced.

By the way, RX480's give 256 H/s on Claymore 11.1 for Linux, so 1550 for a 6-GPU rig.

This guy's page might have an update soon:
