Be very careful, guys! Claymore miners are very fast but a lot of shit inside Can you explain, prove? May be you can create better software?

I was away for some time, today I noticed that the miner does not work with Catalyst 15.12, so I recompiled it (solo version only because I see ypool is dead). I did not check the performance though, it seems it has the same speed.
Current version: 13.1:
- Compiled for Catalyst 15.12. - Updated "Primecoin Profit Calculator" utility.

Hello there! Thanks for your miner! I'm going to make a GUI for this miner, just like I did for CPU Miner ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminergui/). Can I upload the package (the GUI + the miner) to a Sourceforge project I'll create for the GUI? No problem, do it Ok, thanks! By the way, I use this miner on an AMD R9 M265X. Do I have to install anything else to improve performance? I use the latest drivers available on W8.1. You can try to change HashCnt to find the best speed.

Claymore,
Any news on an update to include CryptoNight-Lite algo?
Cheers Bosco
I think I'll have some time this weekend to add it.

>As i said before, with those low temps, i know this also could go a lot faster. Energy usage confirmed that.
The bottleneck of CryptoNight PoW algo is that it requires loading small data blocks from random memory addresses, a lot of times. Because addresses are random, memory cache is useless. You see low temps because GPU core does not work all the time, most time it waits data from GPU memory due its latency. And it cannot be optimized because the algo was designed to use memory latency to be asic-resistant. Fury X has 4096 bit memory bandwidth, but it is useless for this algo because big bandwidth is not related to memory latency.

Probably yes, but not right now because I don't have any free time currently BTW, as far as I understand, this coin has no exchange market even, right?

anyone tried a fury card yet?
I would like to test on my Fury's, but as there is no recent Linux version, i'm unable to. older version doesn't work. Greetings Edit: tested on the latest Linux version. here are some results. 19:20:12:151 23fff700 GPU 1: HashCnt = 1024, time = 792 ms, hashrate = 1292 h/s 19:20:12:164 237fe700 GPU 2: HashCnt = 1024, time = 795 ms, hashrate = 1288 h/s 19:20:12:167 23fff700 Round 19:20:12:174 237fe700 Round 19:20:12:217 29ea5700 GPU 0: HashCnt = 1024, time = 815 ms, hashrate = 1256 h/s 19:20:12:235 29ea5700 Round 19:20:12:960 28ea3700 GPU 1: HashCnt = 1024, time = 791 ms, hashrate = 1294 h/s 19:20:12:978 22ffd700 GPU 2: HashCnt = 1024, time = 795 ms, hashrate = 1288 h/s 19:20:12:978 28ea3700 Round 19:20:12:990 22ffd700 Round 19:20:13:051 296a4700 GPU 0: HashCnt = 1024, time = 816 ms, hashrate = 1254 h/s 19:20:13:067 296a4700 Round 19:20:13:770 23fff700 GPU 1: HashCnt = 1024, time = 792 ms, hashrate = 1292 h/s 19:20:13:787 23fff700 Round 19:20:13:793 237fe700 GPU 2: HashCnt = 1024, time = 796 ms, hashrate = 1286 h/s 19:20:13:804 237fe700 round found 3 shares 19:20:13:804 237fe700 Round 19:20:13:804 227fc700 07/24/15-19:20:13 - SHARE FOUND (target 2500) - (GPU 2 of 3) 19:20:13:805 227fc700 07/24/15-19:20:13 - SHARE FOUND (target 2500) - (GPU 2 of 3) So i guess around 1300 h/s on 1 Fury, complete rig was doing around 490 Watt, That's nothing.. In "Fury X mining performance" thread on your screenshot I see "lowdifficult" error, so it is not real speed. For example, 290X shows 1400h/s if you use miner for Catalyst 13.12 on Catalyst 15.x, but you will get "lowdifficult" errors for all shares. So the only way to test Fury X right now is to use miner for Catalyst 15.x on Windows. Moreover, for Fury X it is necessary to change HashCnt parameter to find best speed.

v9.3 for Catalyst 15.x are available for downloading. In my first tests (290X cards only) it has same performance as for Catalyst 14.x.
No Linux version ? ;-) You know I don't like Linux a bit May be later, not right now.

Anyone had any luck getting their MSI AMD R9 380 to work with 9.3 version of the miner?
Mine keeps getting "LowDifficultyShare" which seems to be because of the catalyst 15.1 drivers (I've tired all of the -a options and the h option).
Sadly the 14.7 drivers don't support the card as its newish.
Thanks!
Ok, I will release version for Catalyst 15.x within 24 hours.

thx for the software but ur devfee is happening a lot more than 2.5% on mine every 4th and 5th share accepted is devfee full day mining with urs and wolfs and got more with wolfs at 140h/s vs urs at 170h/s
1. If you get more profit with other miner - use it. 2. Before estimating devfee learn what is "share target" and compare targets for main shares and for devfee shares, miner shows that information. And/or read previous messages in the topic, it's a good idea: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=647251.msg7330889#msg7330889

will there be an update for the new AMD cards?
There are not really new cards from AMD for now. All new models are based on old core, so you can adjust "-a" and "-h" parameters of miner to find best values if your card name is not displayed when miner is started. Miner detects most popular cards and set best "-a" and "-h" parameters for them, but I don't have all possible cards here. You can ask for best settings for your card here, probably someone has same card and will share best settings. Is this also true for the upcoming fury cards? CN algo requires fast memory. Some of "Fury" cards will have new memory, it must improve mining speed, so let's wait when they are available to test them.

hello - new to this thread, and the miner (TYVM Claymore), did a quick search, and it seems the question was last asked about 1 year ago, hope you don't mind if i ask again - is there a solo version released or in planning? i understand i can install a local private pool if i need to ... thanks
There is no solo version, so the only option to mine solo is to setup private pool.

I often see the following message:
05/01/15-16:11:12 - SHARE FOUND (target 25000) - (GPU 0 of 5) No new jobs were received for 20 mins - something wrong with this pool, disconnect. Stratum - connecting to 'xmr.crypto-pool.fr' <212.129.44.156> port 8888 Stratum - Connected
I also don't see expected rewards from the pool, so I suspect the 20 min periods of no hashing are contributing to the issue. Anyone experience this before? any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Make sure that you don't use proxy, this is the most probable reason. When miner is connected to a pool directly it checks connection (since v9.1), but it cannot do it when proxy is used. If you don't use proxy - it must be pool issue.

Do not use Catalyst higher than 14.7.

How do you usually monitor miners?
Usually I am use ANUBIS (cgminer php-web frontend) monitoring sgminer via its API. Does have your miner some thing like it? No, currently monitoring is not supported.

What is about API? How do monitoring this miner?
