Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux)

[MetalHelmet]

error: 10048 (port for remote management is busy, use different -mport value)   Have you started more than one miner on the same rig?

I use only one instance of Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.7 (only one EthDcrMiner64.exe process in TaskList) ...

Maybe first (initial instance ) hangs up and another instance  try to starts

I use bat file

Code:

@echo off
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

:restart
"d:\Mining\ETH\Claymore's Dual GPU Miner v9.7\EthDcrMiner64.exe" -epool eth-ru2.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0x.worker -epsw x 
Timeout /t 10
goto :restart
pause

Seems like EthDcrMiner64.exe got an error "NVML: cannot get current temperature, error 999 (an internal driver error occurred)" and was terminated but not correctly and stayed in memory or just locked port.
And bat file tried to restart it could not bind port (mport) ...

Hey everyone, new member here

Very nice work with your tools @Claymore, as a fellow programmer I salute you

Here are some questions for anyone who can answer:

Claymore,
Can you verify if you are in talk with AMD developers to get this bug thrashing issue fixed? While your at it, how about getting it fixed on the R9 280X also, I miss the 28MH/s speeds I used to get with Tahiti GPUs.

Yes I can confirm it, but it does not mean that this problem will be fixed.

If I am not mistaken they are talking about Hashrate drop in latest DAG files. Is there any chance that if that gets fixed, the following will also gets fixed?

AMD cards: on some cards you can notice non-constant mining speed in dual mode, sometimes speed becomes a bit slower. This issue was mostly fixed in recent versions, but not completely.

By the way, is the above the same as what some call "fluctuation" or is it a different thing?

Hi @all!
What does it means ?

Miner starts, works OK for over 4 hours and then error witout any recover...

Restart miner do not help... Only full PC reboot

Wha does it means - server: bind failed with error: 10048 (port for remote management is busy, use different -mport value), next attemp  ?

error: 10048 (port for remote management is busy, use different -mport value)   Have you started more than one miner on the same rig?

I think when application that terminates abruptly like in this case the ports that get opened have nothing to tell them to close and make them available again so when the application starts up again and tries to open the port it's already open but not connected to the currently running process.

Is it enough having windows 10 anniversary update or do you have to get creators update for it work?

Swapped out "sata to molex" to directly molex from psu but still no success, still keeps crashing with "cannot get target temprature"

Why is it a question to some of you to update an OS to the latest stable version ever? Earlier versions have tons of bugs, security issues and stability problems that are fixed in the latest one. So I think nobody should ignore the updates in general cases not even if we talk about other topics than mining.

In short: everybody, just update your rig OS and your problems will go

It's a problem.... Cause any application can get terminated ... And bat to restart is useless.... It should restart PC at all...

Maybe  Claymore can add option --selectnextfreeport - if select or default mport is locked - try to use next free port to avoid such problem...

Yes, such option would be great.

[Claymore]

Does -ttli option works with Nvidia cards?
I can not see any changes

You are correct, it is ignored for Nvidia cards currently. I will fix it in next update.

It's bad idea because remote manager won't know that new port is used. Just set "-mport 0" if you don't use remote manager.

for Nvidia, do we still need to use the old 372.54 drivers or the latest 384.76?

Thanks

Is there s way to limit GPU usage when using Claymore ? I own 1080Ti, but for mining purposes I would like to allocate only 50% of its resources. I need the other 50% of power to be able to work on my PC.

Found "-ethi" command, but putting "-ethi 0" in .bat file still doesn't seems to fix the issue. I get lower hash rates, but only by a bit (~30Mh/s) and GPU usage is at about 95%.

[burgla7711]

Claymore's Dual ETH + DCR/SC/LBC/PASC GPU Miner v9.6 recommends nVidia driver 368.81 while I'm using 382.53).

Does it means that Claymore's Dual ETH 9.6 just recommends driver that was actual on v9.6 was released ?  Should I downgrade 382.53 to 368.81 ?

Or maybe update to actual version is 384.76 (2017.6.29) ?

I'm using the latest driver for 6 pieces of GTX 1070 in 7/24 with no problems: 180 MH/s.

can you share your settings? i have 5 1060 and it locks up after 20 min of use and i need to reboot the system. i can only pin it on the miner.

[Toxic_Cat]

Claymore 9.7

MSI 1060 3G Hynix Memory
+200 Core
+550 Memory

Giving me about 19.5 Mh/s on ETH SOLO.
So this version is not for Hynix Memory?
Only who have 20+ Mh/s is Samsung

Sinces today i get this error , whats this ?

I've found that with my GTX 970, running about 90% load with the miner means I can do most other tasks without issue.  Can even play some old games like the first Far Cry and Half-Life 2.

o ok, i didn't know if you had any other parameters in there. thanks

realized i was using v9.2    updated to 9.7 we will see if i have the same issues.

[bigwest60]

I am interested in tithing my profits but would like to automate.  I am thinking that dual mode would be a good way to accomplish this.  But I do not see setting to allocate 10% resources to a specific pool.  I was thinking that -dcri option would be my best option, but am not sure.  I guess I could specify one GPU to a specific pool.  But I have 6 GPU's and that is more than I want to tithe (1/6 is about 16%). Are there any ideas or suggestions for me to accomplish this? TIA!

Thank you for this new version and special thanks for the nVidia boost :-).
