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

[mrminer97]

anyone having issues downloading v9.7 on linux? I replace the ethcdcrminer64 file, but still running an older version... user error?

When i check the windows file - it appears modified recently. the v9.7 for linux was modified in december.

Hi @Claymore,

Very happy with your mining program thus far, thanks for the continual updates and your contribution. I have a question for you.

I have two cards;
 
MSI GTX 1060 6GB Gaming X                             -  [24-25 mh/s]
MSI GTX 1060 6GB Gaming X+ (with 9gbps ram) -  [20-21 mh/s]

Any idea why the 9gbps card would perform slower? Any plans to optimize this? I know there are a lot of us out there with the 9 gbps cards, so it would certainly be beneficial to us all.

Thanks,

Daniel

Claymore's Dual Ethereum + Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner.
=========================

Latest version is v9.7:

- Added ASM mode for RX460/560 cards, up to 30% speedup for second coin in dual mode.
- Improved ETH speed for some Nvidia cards.
- Improved speed in dual mode for Nvidia cards.
- reduced initialization time.
- a few minor bug fixes and improvements.
- EthMan: added ability to select several rigs.
- EthMan: several minor bug fixes and improvements.

And short answer is (which also applies to gtx1080 , gddr5X card) :
GDDR5X memory have GOOD throughput (which makes it fine for zCash),
but very BAD latency, which also makes it BAD for ETHereum minig.

I doubt ANY software optimizations could be made regarding GDDR5X cards and ETH,
so ... just avoid them, unless you planned to mine zCash.

p.s. You caould also make zCash test, i am also curious if you gain some speed on gddr5X card vs "normal" one.

b.r.
Alex

There are some good days of mining some bad days of mining. but remember all my friends here, keep mining and hold on the your ETH .. its worth the gold in a few days to year .. this dip will go

Hey guys after running my miner for like 1-2 hours (sometimes less sometimes more) I get this problem :

WATCHDOG: GPU 5 hangs in OpenCL call , please restart the miner Sad

It's always the GPU 5 . Im running 6 Rx 580 8GB MSI Gaming with this codes :

"-cclock 1150 -mclock 2150 -cvddc 900 -mvddc 850 -dcri 16 -wd 0"

Any fix for this ? At the begging this was running 24/7 for atleast 1 week without any problem.

Thanks !

I had tha problem a few weeks ago. It seemed it was claymores miner getting wrong temps with radeon wattman and my -tt -fanmax settings were getting screwed up. I stipped using wattman process, took out my -tt -fanmin -fanmax settings in bat file and controlled fan speed with msi afterburner. Fixed the problem for me

I feel the same.  My rig crashes after 20-150 mins on 9.7, but I was getting an additions 2 mh/s per card.

Went back to 9.6

Still no support for vega? I thought Claymore was working directly with AMD on it.

Claymore has indicated that vega support is a couple weeks away.  I have two vega fe's, so I feel you!

So do it
Looking forward for Vega hashrate

^^ That That and that!

Thank you for your early numbers by the way, they helped me make the decision to buy two!

I think they stand a really good chance of being awesome. but like most amd releases they well underperform until drivers get sorted and the mod world pulls it apart and works out how to make it run more efficiently and more than likely quite a lot faster. I think the rx500 days are very limited

The numbers would have to be pretty spectacular to justify the $1000+ price tag of the card. Otherwise ROI will be much too long.

Claymore I have 6 cards gigabyt R9 380 sapphire and powercolor rx 470 570 reddragon 4g - all cards are stable and good and 570 are constantly jumping from 30 to hash 8 hash tried all the versions everywhere - could you fix it

This is not Claymore's issue. I have 6 cards on my rigs and all work fine and stable. You have to look elsewhere.

Ok I just got some new information regarding my problem getting "cannot get target temperature, error 15/999"

I tried ethOS and same thing happened there, i guess that rules out any os/graphic drivers issues because my friend have the exact same rig and it worked flawlessly in ethos.

I have swapped the usb risers as well with no success.
The only thing i can Think of is my PSU now, when all 6 cards are at 100% Power , around 900 watt, it almost instant.
But if i turn it down to 65%, the whole rig takes 650w from wall, it runs without crashing.

I am using molex directly from psu to Power up to 2 usb risers per Cable, instead of doing the sata to molex convertion.
My psu is ax1200i. Can I use the corsair link to somehow see if there is any problem with the psu or maybe change something there that could help me?

All these crashing is btw even with stock setting, no oc at all.

What do you guys Think?

hi guys , may i know what's the problem with this ?

[JustCauseBIH]

@Claymore

Maybe it would be good idea to add some notice in miner when error occur and can be related to overclocking/underclocking.

Just add notice "Check your OC settings and driver version" so we can avoid lot of questions regarding errors that happen in mentioned situations.

Hi guys,

Im testing dual mining and have some questions.

With ether only mining I have 185Mh/s. With eth + lbry I have 165Mh/s eth and 160Mh/s lbry. Is that ok? Im asking bcuz of this info in first post "with no impact on Ethereum mining speed".

[wartywarlock]

Hi, I have an occasional niggling issue that seems to have come from 9.7.

Every so often the reported hashrate from one of the miners (can be any of them) drops off, like so: http://imgur.com/a/8iXwF mining itself is unaffected, just what is sent to the pool (ethermine.org)

4 rigs has happened on 3 of them at random times. Closing the miner and restarting resolves it, and as said no shares are lost or anything, just annoying because it still means going and checking the rig just in case it is a real dropout.

Has anyone else had this, or got a solution? Maybe there is a button to toggle reporting that might kick it back into gear rather than a total restart.

Hi guys,

wich coin are the best for mining in DUAL mode with ETH?

bcs only ETH is at moment really not the best for mining solo (in Europe!)

LBC, DEC, PASC, SC.....??

Someone have experience??

Thank you very much

Greetings
Luisa

I am dual mining eth=sia
can someone please explain this to me ? why my calculated hash rate is so different ! there is even 1 full hour with 0 calculated hash rate . My monthly income showing results worst than before I oc my mem by a lot .   there is 0 error on my miner . why my calculated hash rate is so unstable

[Saphire]

In Claymore 9.7 "No pools specified!"

Why do i get this error when i changed my wallet adress in bat file.




Note: I am using Claymore old version wihtout any problem.

questions....only questions...)

... AX1200i

You have a very decent PSU. Keep in mind, that if the PSU pulls 1000w from the wall this means your rig is pulling arround (1000 * 94% efficiency = ) 940w. Your PSU should be able to deliver 1200w output, so arround 1275w from the wall. I think you are good to go from that perspective. I guess your PSU is faulty or the connections to the GPUs are bad and the voltage drop there is to big. Do you have any PCIe 8 Pin splitters on it? Maybe their Ohm resistance is too big.

No i dont have any splitters, for 6 cards i use 6 pci-e Cables, 4 of them have 1x8 pin and 2 of them have 2x 8 pin.(i leave the other 1x8pin), my cards only takes 1x8pin anyway.

I have read alot about my gtx 1070 with micron memory that it will crash sometimes when it goes from idle voltage to full load voltage.
Solution was to set "prefer maximum performance" or to lock the voltage above 0.811v for each card.
Been running now for 2 hours but really dont have any idea if this is the solution.
Anyone else know about this?

Connected my 6 risers with molex directly from psu, 2 risers per molex Cable.

[xxxmattion]

when this programer will make an andoid app to allow us monitor our rigs ?
also Eth Man when will be able to work through internet ,not only through local lan???

Hi, Claymore, any news about AMD dropping hashrate? annyyyy
thanks!

No news for now, but I expect it soon, just need to wait a bit more.

How about last night's DAG?  It took an average of .3 Mh/s from all 24 of my cards - both RX 480 and RX 580 cards.
