Yes my AVG also alerts me occasionally about my own bins. Nothing to worry about. But if you don't trust it, just build from source

[Termie]

ok no problem then, I´d just wondered because I never get this with previous of your zip's.

Heyy guys,

What is the -E bench and -Z 1335005 options in the default .bat file? And the -O 0xeXXXX is the adress to mine stratum without proxy?

First time mining ETH. Thanks

[alenevaa]

What is the -E bench and -Z 1335005 options in the default .bat file?

You don't need this options. You can skip both of them.

DAG file management:

Code:

-E bench erase all DAG files older than current epoch but keep epoch 0 for benchmarking

Simulation mode:

Code:

-Z [<n>],--simulation [<n>] Mining test mode. Used to validate kernel optimizations. Optionally specify block number.

[Genoil]

Oh that bat file wasn't supposed to end up there   

[Pustul]

Haha ok, thanks for the explanations!

Also what kind of performance should I expect from a GTX 670 2GB? Unfortunately I'm on Win10. I've tried downgrading to 347.52 using the cuda 6.5 miner but I only have either 1 or 2 Mh/s (quite strange behavior). Does this seems correct:

Code:

ethminer.exe -S eu1.ethermine.org:4444 --farm-recheck 2000 -O 0xe63b45d2f0c5fc089e42ea6805b9b8c9fe443d99.P8Z77V -U -R "D:\Program Files\Geth\ethereum\DAG" --cl-global-work 8192 --cl-local-work 128

Overclocking doesn't seem to affect the hashrate. I also have a 7970 on another PC but I haven't finished downloading the blockchain there.

Hello, when I use this command: "-R E:\Crypto\DagETH", the CPU load is 50%. When I remove it, it's 0,5%. The problem is that my drive C is almost full and I want to change the DAG folder in drive E, but this 50% CPU load is a big problem.

What CPU are you using?

AMD Phenom II X2 560 @ 3.6GHz.

Yeah, very low-end dual core CPU, that makes sense.
I'm afraid you'll need a more capable CPU to accommodate the miner.

I don't know about the 670, I guess around 10MH/s?

You don't need to download the blockchain for pool mining.

[Pustul]

Ok, thank you for the help.

My other pc with the 7970 is ok with about 18 MH/s. But I can't get more than 2 MH/s with my GTX 670... Maybe because of Windows 10 even with 347.52 and cuda 6.5? The pool doesn't even see the worker!

Win10 could very well be the cause. I know GK104 GPUs hash fine on Ubuntu. Not sure about Win7.

I think 670 should do 8-10 mHashes

Thanks for the info!

I'am now getting 4 MH/s with a fresh install of the latest drivers and cuda 7.5 on WIn10 and the worker is seen by the pool. I've tested a lot of settings and overclock but I can't seem to go much higher than 4.5MH/s. I guess I should try on Win7 or Ubuntu but I don't really want to install a dual boot now.

I have SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon R9 380X 4G D5.

I use ethminer-0.9.41-genoil-1.0.4b3

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
C:\Mine\ethminer107\ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 2000 -G -F http://127.0.0.1:8080/dw1 --cl-local-work 256 --cl-global-work 16384

And i have 20.9 m/s.

What settings can i change to improve that result?

change the --farm-recheck 2000 to 200 think might of added an extra 0 by mistake as that is 2 sec and can lose out a lot of shares in that 200 ms is far better on getting shares unless changed it to be improved for 2sec delay. everything else seems to be fine with your settings you have.

I have pc with 1x Sapphire r9 380x + 1x MSI r9 370

Using ethminer-0.9.41-genoil-1.0.7

Mining without overclocking.

Here are the settings

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
C:\Mine\ethminer107\ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 1200 -G -F http://127.0.0.1:8080/dw1 --cl-local-work 256 --cl-global-work 20384 --mining-threads 2

Getting float result from 30.2 to 34.5 to 38.9.


What can i do to make it more stable?

And what can i do to gain more H/s?

Is --farm-recheck 1200 good timing or i need to reduce it and why?

When i change farm-recheck to 200 i get 20.3 m/s. Thats a little less. Or that doesnt gains for me more shares?

it is good hashes for 380x , I think

I am trying to build the miner on Ubuntu 15.10 to test if it works better there but unfortunately I've got the following error:

Code:

Makefile:116: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

When I tried to build the version without CUDA it works so I guess it is related to that. I have driver version 352.79. Has anyone built the miner with Ubuntu 15.10?

EDIT: I've got more info by rerunning the make, it is due to the version of gcc being too recent. I've got it working by installing gcc 4.9.

I build ethminer 1.0.7 for linux and when i start the bash file:

([OPENCL]:cl GetProgramBuildInfo(-33)
[OPENCL]:clEnqueueWriteBuffer(-38)

With 1.0.6 it worked perfectly but stratum was inestable.

I'm using 5x r7 265 cards on Lubuntu 14.04 LTS.

My bash file:

#!/bin/bash
export GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=0
export GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE=100
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
ethminer -G -S coinotron.com:3344 -O user.worker:x --cl-local-work 128 --cl-global-work 8192 -E old

i did the test with same bash file using official ethminer and it works fine  

Any idea?

[Pustul]

Ok, I've got my 670 working on Ubuntu. Hashrate is 13-14 MH/s with farm-recheck at 2000 and it is oscillating between 10.2 and 20.5 (one or the other, never in the middle) when using farm-recheck 200. Which one should I use?

Thanks for the great miner Genoil!

Another question: is it possible to connect to other pools than ethermine? I can connect to nanopool or dwarfpool but I get endless Waiting for work package... Do I need to remove DAG file or something?
