41  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] TeamRedMiner 0.7.21 - Nimiq/Kawpow/Ethash/Etchash/Cryptonight and More on: December 20, 2020, 06:51:36 PM
Can confirm that the latest (0.7.21) TRM miner works well with my 2 x RX 570 Sapphire Pulse 4Gb cards,
currently both mining ETH at 28.3 MH/s each.   This is on Xubuntu 16.04 with driver version 17.30.  
Here is my command line

teamredminer --platform=0  -a ethash -o stratum+tcp://europe.ethash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20535 -u xxxxxx.$WK -p x \
 --eth_4g_max_alloc=4076,4076 --fan_control=:::44,:::26 --pool_no_ensub


A good thing of this miner compared to Phoenixminer is the clean startup and shutdown, as well as lower power consp.   No more hangup requiring box reboot.
Will be keen to see how well the DAG spillover to system mem works into the coming weeks.

Why stop at CUDA 7.5?
I just compiled a version of ccminer for my GT 640 with compute capability 3.0 with CUDA 6.5  and it is now mining Digibyte :-)
Not for profit, just for fun.  The poor thing doesnt even have a fan so will see if I dare to leave it alone for a day..
43  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ETH Hashrate drop on Polaris 8GB cards? on: December 09, 2020, 06:02:59 PM
Use the latest Poloniex miner
Driver 19.3
-No Bios mod
-rxboost 50
-mt 1
Write in private if I can help.

Don't download anything from random people on the internet.

So I upgraded to PhoenixMiner 5.3b and AMD driver version 19.7.5.  Those changes did not change anything!
Then I added command line options  -rxboost 50 -mt 1  and voila - all cards except 1 are above 30MH/s again :-)
Some further tuning is required and I will monitor the amount of memory errors in HWinfo64.
Since the rig is in a remote location and I log in using Chrome remote desktop I dont want to do any BIOS mods before I get to go on site.
Thanks for the tip to use rxboost, mate!
44  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / ETH Hashrate drop on Polaris 8GB cards? on: December 09, 2020, 07:32:03 AM
Guys,
I have a rig with RX 470 8GB cards mining ETH and they were running at around 30MH/s each, but today I noticed a drop in hasrate to around 29-29.5  on all of them.   Surely, they should not be affected by the increased DAG size yet?  Any of you noticed the same?
The current driver version is 18.5.1.   All cards are BIOS modded.   I wonder if a higher driver version will bring hashrate back up to 30?
I already checked ping rates and they are unchanged.
EDIT: I am using Phoenixminer 5.1c

Can confirm that 5.2c is working great with my RX 570  4Gb cards

Windows 10
Adrenalin 2019-Edition-18.12.3-Dec19 driver

2 x Sapphire Pulse Rx 570 4Gb cards mining ETH at 1100/2000 core/mem

hashrate now 29.9MH/s
hashrate before the DAG limitation: 30.3MH/s


Update:
Had to move to Linux (Xubuntu 16.04) after hashing speed dropped to 27 in Windows.
In Linux I am back at 30MH/s on both GPUs, guys  Cheesy
Using miner version 5.1c  and AMDGPU-Pro 17.40  and kernel version 4.18 - old but trusty

Is there any coin worth cpu mining right now?


That depends on a couple of things (at least):
1. CPU type.  Generally, Ryzen cpus will be a better choice for mining these days, especially those with higher core counts and larger L3 cache.
2. Your strategy.   You can mine a coin believing it will moon one day in the future.   Then you might not mind it not returning more than a few cents a day now.  You can let the miner do its work and forget about it until the day the coin moons and then rake in the profits selling.
Or, you can spend a lot of time researching the coin of the day and mine it short term to see if that will earn you a quick buck.
I think XMR has potential to go higher in price and am mining it.
49  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Radeon 5700 Hashrate on: April 04, 2020, 09:05:56 AM
what is the best settings for mining ETH
core clock
volt
and memory freconcy

how we know memoy manfucturer ?

It depends what you mean by best.  I am trottling back for best fuel economy.

I have set my MSI 5700 Mech to mine ETH at around 50MH/s.
Settings are as follows:
Core freq  1200
Mem freq   875
Core volt  731 mV    <- used Red Bios Editor to adjust from 800 to 725, but it wont go below 731
Power consumption reported by miner (Phoenixminr 4.9c) is 105Watts
GPU temp is 53 deg
Hot spot temp, which on my GPU is memory temp, is 82.
Fans are at 44%
50  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Single GPU quit on my Ryzen-based rig -this is what I did to get the rig to boot on: March 31, 2020, 06:59:05 PM
This is a story on how I managed to boot a headless rig when the mobo had entered into the BIOS.

My one month new MSI RX 5700 Mech GP Edition decided to quit on me this morning  Angry.  I could not get it undead.
I suspect maybe memory got damaged by heat - I found it was impossible to mine with it and keep the hot spot temperature under 100 degrees while mining ETH.  I watched a Youtube vid on that same card where they found the thermal pads did not cover the mem chips.
I took the GPU out of the rig, then faced a new problem:  How to boot the now headless rig back into Windows without a GPU since the Ryzen 3700X CPU in it doesnt have a built in GPU to drive the display.  The mobo I have is an ASUS TUF 450M.

I know the mobo usually enters into the BIOS after a hardware change.   I was not able to RDP into it from my laptop.
After a lot of trials with reboots and new keyboard sequences I found the correct key sequence to get it to exit BIOS and boot into Windows.  Immediately after power-on, I hit the Delete key and held it down for a few seconds until I was confident it was now in the BIOS.  I then pressed F10 and Y to confirm.  And then it booted into Windows.
The rig is now cpu-mining Monero while waiting for a GPU replacement.  I will have to RMA that defective GPU.

I can confirm the numbers for a 3700X.  Mine is mining Loki at ~7000 H/s  atm.     Miner is XMRig 4.3.1-beta.
For comparison my old clunker PC with an i5 4460 CPU does 1450 H/s on the same algo/miner with 3 threads.

Sounds about fight!
If possible would be nice IF you could redo benchmark with just one stick of The ram.

Theoretically, that should give me about half the hashrate.
I tried it and it did not work.  It threw an error and told me to enable large pages.
Interestingly, I was able to cpu-mine Monero at the same hashrate as before - 460 H/s with 7 threads (XMR-Stak 2.10.6).

Any reason you're not using Claymore's 14.7 with timing straps? or just use PBE? I have RX470 4Gbs (samsungs non-mining edition) and get 30mh~ with these with no errors 900/900mv @2000mhz

I tried but - strap doesn't work. Which drivers do u use?

Try using SRB Polaris bios editor and use the one-click memory strap function
To modify the mem strap.

Hey Folks,

can someone help my with vega56 undervolt.
My current conf entry for 6xVega56 :
amdmemtweak --RAS 28 --RCDRD 12 --RCDWR 5 --RC 44 --RP 12 --RRDS 3 --RRDL 3 --REF 15600 --RFC 246 --FAW 14
With this entry i recive 266 MHash ( 44.44 per GPU) with ETH but from wall 1997 Watt
Can someone advise what to change.
Thank You

Holy crap
You must be like 500 Watts over where the power should be.
Do yourself a favor and read up on undervolting Vegas.
Heck I am doing 220 MH with 8 x RX570 at 850 Watts total power

Does anybody know how to undervolt the memory of a Vega 64 reference card ? 
HWiNfO reports it as being 1.356V (MVDDC).  I am not talking about the memory voltage you set in OverdriveNTool..
My card is mining XMR with TMR at 2kH/s and consuming around 170 Watts.  I am looking to reducing power a bit more...

You know your tools are getting old when
1. Your Ryzen 5 2600 shows up in HWiNFO with a 108 Degrees core temp..  like wtf
2. Your Vega 64 reference shows up in GPU-Z with 8 Gig of Micro memory.  like wtf.  I know it has Samsung..
3. ATI pixel clock patcher complains that the driver file is too large.
Luckily all above items were resolved by upgrading the corresponding tool...
Time to overhaul the software repo..
Goes to show you the amount of innovation going on in this field called mining..

Perhaps I should mention that I needed to upgrade OverDrivenTool to 0.2.8. beta1 after I upgraded my AMD driver to 19.4.1 and lost fan control on my RX 570s...
Then I had to upgrade my Teamviewer to 14 something after it complained that the machine I tried to connect to had 14 something....

BTW does anyone know of a replacement for TeamViewer?  I am getting tired of its ways..  I can only stay connected a few minutes at a time now it suspects business use...

I still have a license for RemoteAdministrator 2.1; and its my fallback for when I need to double wrap a session, or don't have the ability to install TeamViewer;   it's basically windows RDP before windows had RDP.

If you know how to properly filter/restrict your traffic;  just use windows RDP;  just be absolutely sure you know how to configure the machine to only respond to you.   There are many ways to do this....


would you mind sharing a few ways.  I could always use a few tips.


for linux you can use xterm, or for windows you can use the built in RDP or a 3rd party such as my commented remote administrator;   there are countless how-to's on remote desktop protocol stuff out there....  TV is just nice because they have a 3rd party reporting/relay server.

I am using RDP and Reminna (Ubuntu)  on my LAN.  I have also tried MobaXterm and Visionapp, but didnt like them too much.  It is for the remote location I currently use Teamviewer, because I have not wanted to open my router at the remote location for direct connections on the port that RDP, for example, is using.   If someone could point me to a good tutorial on how to make port forwarding on routers  acceptably secure then I am all ears.
58  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Who ordered the AMD Radeon VII? Lets make a list of Miners / Hashrates / Coins on: May 04, 2019, 02:58:38 PM
Does anybody have issues maintaining hashrates on Ethereum?

I just got a new MSI Radeon VII (Samsung memory) and it's unable to hold hashrates, even at stock, no matter what driver or miner I use. This contrasts greatly with my Sapphire card (Hynix memory), which is going at 93MH/s VERY stably. On both cards, I've swapped the cooler for AIO watercooling blocks, which has kept junction temps around 60 degrees C.

On the MSI, I've got the following settings: 1750MHz core, 962mV; memory at 1050Mhz.

It runs at ~90MHs for about 5-10 minutes, before violently dropping down to 47MHs.

I've noticed that when it drops down to 47MHs and I close Claymore, the core clock is stuck at 1750MHz, even though nothing graphically intensive is running.

I've tried cleaning and reinstalling drivers and swapping between PCI-E slots, and the damn MSI just keeps dropping.

Has anybody experienced this, and does this sound like a dud card?

Something similar happens with my card (AMD/ATI with Hynix) but only when the voltage is too low (e.g. at 950mv with around 1780 core clock) and the hashrate actually drops all the way to zero (while the card seems to still be under full load). Lowering core clock or increasing voltage solves it for me. Another thing to try is Phoenix Miner.


See if you need to disable UPLS and crossfire.
Do a search for EnableULPS and registry and see if it applies to your card

thx

I have custom straps for my rx cards, it would be nice to be able to flash them back because right now I have to use older drivers due to signing issues

Can someone list a good starting point for 470 Hynix, Samsung and micron cards for eth/xmr

Use version 1.4.6 of the pixel patcher - then you can sign newer versions of the driver.  I have patched my 19.4.1 install with it.

You could use  WinAMDTweak --current from your custom bios, then store those timings and use them as a starting point after you have reverted the card back to orig.bios.


EDIT:
I had to verify what I just mentioned above:
I upgraded the driver on my test rig with 2 x RX 570 from 18.6.1 to 19.4.1, patched it and restarted the rig.  
I then learned I had to upgrade my OverDrivenTool because I no longer had fan control.  Great, eh
I found version 0.2.8. bet1 and am playing with it as we speak..  Seems like the new driver runs the cards cooler... less power Yay.

Hmm , I’ll have to work on this as well tonight as well , cooler is definitely better

I can’t find links to the 1.4.6 pixel patcher or winAMDTweak though

Are they in this thread?


WinAMDTweak (the command line version) should be available in this thread.   I DLed  the pixel patcher from here.  It seems legit.
https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Thread-AMD-ATI-Pixel-Clock-Patcher

My two test cards both have Elpida mem.  I simply used SRBPolaris bios editor with the one-click method to get good timing straps for my custom bios.
I will use that as a starting point to further tweak my cards, when I get the time.
