I am slowly trying to build a multi GPU ETH/DEC mining rig. I have my second RX 480 card in it and after adding the second card I get an OPEN CL hang error and one of the GPU idles down to a memory clock of 300 MHz and stops mining. I have added the flag and bat file for an automatic reboot but I would prefer to have this not happen at all. I downgraded drivers and it happens less often but it still happens. I set virtual memory to 24000MB. What types of things will cause this to happen and how can I prevent it in the future?
try to change bios switch position in new card There is no bios switch position. It is a single bios card. what is your card type? These two cards are PowerColor RX 480 Red Dragon 4GB. I also have an MSI Armor RX 470 8GB in another machine and it does not have a bios switch either. All have Samsung memory. |

Hello mining community, I would like to ask for some help. Recently bought a mining rig 6x RX 480 https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/8GB-PowerColor-Radeon-RX-480-Red-Dragon-Aktiv-PCIe-3-0-x16--Retail-_1124443.html I am using Biostar TB85 motherboard, 12 GB RAM, EVGA 1300w, 120ssd, intel celeron 2x2.8GHz, windows 10 64. I have this problem. On minute after I start claymore miner hashrate on one card drop to 0 and I get report - GPU hangs in opencl call - Need to restart miner. I am searching for solution for couple of days already. - I tried different GPU drivers, if I try to install 17.3 or 17.4 crimson computer crash. - Virtual memory is on 16GB. - If I start a miner without this card which lost hashrate then same thing happen to other 5 cards, hashrate drop to 0 on all 5 cards. - I reinstall windows and all drivers, still same issue - I switch cables and cards, nothing positive happen. - tried other miners, pools, old version of claymore miner.. - tried function -gser -eser Tried probly everything i could find on google, still no solution. Not sure if that is specific problem of motherboard, graphic card? other parts are more or less standard mining parts and probly have nothing to do with that problem. Hop someone can help or give any proposition what should I do or try. Thank you Best regards It is because you did not set your virtual memory. Go into system, advanced settings and change virtual memory to 16000MB like the program tells you to do if you are mining on multiple cards. If you don't do that you get the Open CL hang error, the miner tries to restarts and it just hangs. |

Claymore - When "s" is pressed for information can you add shares found per GPU? I know it doesn't really matter but I think it would be interesting to see if one is finding more shares than the other over time.

I had one lost for 30 days to knc in 2013. KNC said dollars only. The bank said it would send dollars, but they had a bot that auto converted to local currency if they could make a couple bucks. Thus the transaction was stuck. Bank said it was sent in $$$ (not knowing about their own bot) KNC said they did not get it (due to their bot stopping it for not being usd) . Anyway was a complete cluster. Use a commercial bank that is used to doing wire xfers is my advice. Stuff like this happens with a regular bank all the time I hear. Just for the fact wire transfer 'supposedly' is rare on non commercial regular banks it seems. (or so I was told) Anyway, something to ask your bank if they converted it to a local currency .and because of such you are a few bucks short in the conversion  Anyway....something you can ask I guess ..just in case That sucks. I get wires in Thailand denominated in US dollars and the Thai bank just converts it to Thai baht at that hour's rate, deducts a fee, and deposits the rest into my account. I did have an issue once with a Chinese company I was doing business with. They told me to send X amount of dollars (over $20,000) and I sent the exact amount. Of course, they received it minus the SWIFT fees (that is normal). They wanted me to send them another $17 to cover the fees. I told them my bank would charge me more than that amount to send the wire (would have cost me over double) so I was not going to do that. Told them you know wires haves receiving fees and if you wanted me to pay it you should have added it to the total you asked me to send. I was persistent. In the end, they gave up and shipped the goods. This was many years ago but doing business with companies in China is often a challenge. |

So, has anyone that did wire transfer got payment confirmation yet from Baikal?
I did my wire transfer online and provided receipts of the wire and confirmation of the wire that was made on 4-28-2016.
My bank tells me that the wire I did is same day international wire transfer and the transfer status is complete. Since the wire was done with SWIFT code, my bank tells me that they should receive the funds within 1-2 days.
I keep asking Baikal for confirmation/updates, but Baikal keeps saying "We will let you know once we get the payment" or "Please send us your bank slip for our confirmation".
I keep providing the confirmation to them, but it gets nowhere. I know they are receiving my attachments, because they are responding to that email saying, "We will let you know once we get the payment".
The frustration of the process continues...
Also, for people that have experience with international wire transfers, how long does it usually take for the recipient to receive funds into their bank with SWIFT code? I heard it's just usually 1 day?
It depends on whether the bank the wire is going to is a major bank or a smaller banks. SWIFT wires can go through a number of banks (each one taking some money) before it gets to the destination bank. If a larger bank and they have a corresponding account with the sending bank it will usually take one day (sometimes two) for the credit to appear in the recipient's account. Smaller banks (without an account with the sending bank) go through the larger banks to get paid. This can take an extra day or two. At max three days, usually one or two days. Also, remember there are time differences that can affect delivery speed. |

I don't care ZAC. I belt that the price of ETH will grow up so fast. 3 days: 21 dollar plus (It went from 50$ to 71$, and it is just the beginning).
And the ZAC use plus watts (about 110 plus with this two cards).
Nvidia cards don't mine ETH very well. That is why you have slow speeds. |

This is very bad.. I'm using Windows 10 64 bit, Cuda 8 and 381.65 driver.
Is there any solution for this? Or can I try to fix it? There is a source code somewhere?

With 9.2 my r9 290 went from 31 to 21 mh/s (ETH). SC went from 440-450 to 640. Temps stayed the same. With 9.3, eth went up 1 mh/s (22mh/s) and SC to 660.
Yo, yea the same happened here, you need to add -dcri ## to your command, maybe start off at -dcri 30 and while your miner is running use the - sign, you will decrease the dcri by one every time and each time you press you will see new hashspeed, do this untill you find the sweet spot for both. ps. you might try adding -ethi 16, worked for me a bit. -dcri is different for every card. Once you find the sweet spot you will have better speeds. if that is the case how do you live change the dcri for 1 card? or did you mean make of card? As Claymore says in Post #1 you check the -dcri of each card by itself with no other cards in the machine. then when you run the start batch you give the value for each card, such as "-dcri 12,34,21" etc. |

hi guys,i'm new here..why once i done the vga driver fan will stop after windows loading?
gpu RX480 4gb x 6
OS : win7 64bit ultimate
The fans shut off if the GPU temp is below 50C as they don't need active cooling. When the temp goes above this the fans will start running. The hotter the card gets, the faster the fans will run. |

I am looking forward in investing in Digibyte is there any online wallet for it like Coinbase or Blockchain.
Thanks
You really want to trust your coins to an online wallet that can disappear overnight or they can steal your coins as you do not control the private keys. I would only use my own wallet to hold a significant amount of DGB. I have over 1M coins. I would never trust them to anything where I do not control the private keys myself. |

On the rig I was testing 9.3 my PASC hashrate went down by 44 MH/s white ETH remained about same and was more stable. But that stability took a big hit on PASC hashing. Back to 9.1.

DCR vs PASC. Which one earns more money dual mining or is it a toss up?
With DCR you will actualy much more profit now. Due to PPLNS does it take a day or two to see the real profit? I started earlier today and so far earning have been very low. Much lower than I would have made mining PASC. I am hoping after 24 hours what I make per block will go up. I am mining DCR on coinmine.pl. |

Sorry if this has already been asked and answered but the thread is very long. On Paymetheus Wallet how can I view all receive addresses generated? I don't like generating and address and having it never be used. I like to use them in order. But I cannot find a way to view addresses shown to me so far.
Also, this wallet is a pig when you first set it up. It was hosing my GPU cores and increased the power consumption of my computer by 150 watts when it was downloading the blockchain. Never had a wallet do this to my computer before. CPU got so hot computer was beeping a warning. Usually CPU runs very cool. Now it is back to normal but that was very disconcerting.

Any idea how fast Inet connection is needed for normal speed mining?
Or can someone suggest a tool for measuring it?
You don't need a very fast internet connection. Not much data is being transferred. The most important thing is latency so pick the closest server available to where your mining rigs are. |

There are other sellers on aliexpress with more reasonable prices. Is aliexpress a good place to turn to for miners?
I purchase items on Aliexpress frequently. Your experience depends on the seller. But since Aliexpress forces every sale into an escrow system I have always received a refund when I had a problem. The seller doesn't get paid until you confirm receipt of the item or the delivery time windows has expired (usually a long time). After receiving it Aliexpress will notify you to confirm receipt or you have seven days to file a dispute for DOA, not as described, etc. I often find just messaging the seller gets a refund when I have an issue as they don't like disputes filed with Aliexpress (I think too many and they cannot sell any more). For the most part on Aliexpress I get what I paid for at a really good price. Just don't buy from jokers with the ridiculous prices. |

Hi guys.... I have (had  ) 42 MSI rx 470 12 Sapphire Nitro+ 470 12 Sapphire reference 470 cards. Latelly ... all off them started falling like leaves. I mean they either die or burn up. 6 msi - 3 sapphire nitro and 2 sapphire reference cards died all during past 3 weeks.... Anyone else have that many breakdowns lately? I dont even know what to blame now. Bios mods... motherboards.... PSU or claymor v9 Sapphire reference cards all worked for 5 months with only 2 of them die before this nightmare.... Sapphire Nitro+ never broke for 5 months before this.... I recently purchased 30 MSI cards and 6 already dead in like 3 weeks.... they tend to bring out smoke while sapphire cards just die. My rigs are 6xGPU all (used to be.... LOL) motherboards are BTC PRO and Z97 fatality. PSU are Be quiet pro 2x 1200 and and Platimaxe's 1600. I used to use -96 core woltage in afterburner. I started thinking that might be the reason. But i changed it to 0 and 2 more cards died. SO im pretty much lost. Any ideas are welcome. Or maybe someone else has unusual high rate of failing cards recently? thats is creepy... can someone confirm these die rates? maybe you have a bad setup of power distribution or yours psu are failing i had one of my msi rx480 sparkle and burn in front of me when booting up my system after a power outage. realized the pcie riser had some burn on it, it was a version 003. when running hwmonitor the voltage were spiking to like 500000 ! at first though it was a glitch but then i thrwe them all away and got new risers, v007 this time and hwmonitor reports normal voltage value, no more spiking to 500000+ . So i would suggest double checking your pcie risers, they may be the faulty part causing that problem You really were right, 2 "rise 003 version" burned, I have 2 "rise 006 version" is perfect. 4 x RX 480 https://ibb.co/hNTdJ5https://ibb.co/ewRXd5https://ibb.co/g64JJ5fyi, http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#peripheralthe 4 pin peripheral power cable only good for 5 amps that's 60w for 12v and SATA power cable side only rated for 4.5 amps i am not surprised it would melt over 75w constant load overtime. (and you should know RX480 will draw more that that on pci-e power draw.) you need to get pci-e 6 pin powered raisers (do not use the provided sata to pci-e 6pin power cable with raisers if any!). and do not use extension to keep in specification with standard 18awg wires. only safe way is to get PSU with adequate PCI-E 6pin power outlet. I am using VER 006C 1703 btw often monitor temperature with infrared thermometer gun on the connectors to make sure that no loose connection that cause electrical sparking that will cause heat up and melt your parts. The 75 watts is not supplied by the powered riser. The main power for the GPU comes from the six or eight pin 12 volt power connector specifically designed for high end graphics cards. The power to the riser replaces the supplementary power that would be provided by the PCI-E slot which is not much power at all. The use of powered risers is to relieve the stress from the motherboard of supporting PCI-E bus power to too many cards, but this is by no means the main source of the graphics card power source. I am using risers with a molex to SATA adapter with SATA power from the PSU. I check the temps and the wires stay below 30C, which is about my room temp where I am located. They should not melt or get hot unless very thin, cheap wires was used to make them. |
