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

[Omg9500]

I'd say that largely depends on the maker of your cards and the memory brand being used. you will find a good source of VBIOS mods and the necessary tools for many cards over at anorak.tech

For example I have 10 sapphire nitro+ SE RX580 SE 8GB which perform at around 31 mh/s each (Hynix and Micron memory) and 3 MSI ARMOR OC RX580 8GB at 28.8 mh/s (Hynix). Rig performs at 398 mh/s on ETH.

But, aren't you a bit late to the show bearing in mind that mining income is dwindling?

I understand that automatic dcri is only for eth solo mode. For dual mining mode dcri value 30 is only default value not the best value.

You are correct. -dcri values are detected automatically only for AMD cards in ASM ETH-only mode. For dual mode it is always 30 if you did not specify "-dcri" option directly.

Claymore, does automatic detection of best -dcri values occur only on miner initialization or it is happen during miner work in some time intervals?

Have you tried bumping the clock to 1220 or 1225 on the 2220 mhz ram cards?  I find a ratio of 1.81 works best but like you said that depends on the card. From my limited testing that ratio seems optimal.

What GPU memory size should be to have same hashrate as with altcoins?

My nvidia 3gb cards mine ETH just fine and will continue to do so for about another 12 months (using them in secondary slots in Ubuntu which doesn't allocate ram to other purposes).

For amd cards there was once an issue but driver updates fixed it. You need to install latest drivers and turn them too compute mode. If you do that the ETH rate is comparable to alt coins. But the driver is not available for really old cards or appears. I have an R9 390 that mines 29.3 in ETH and 29.5 in expanse, for RX series there is typically no noticeable difference.

Hey everyone,

I am attempting to use the ETH miner v11.3 with NVIDIA V100 GPUs, however I keep getting the following error:

Code:

GPU 0, GpuMiner cu_kd failed 8 (0), invalid device function
GPU 0, Calc DAG failed!

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and I've tried with both CUDA 9.0 and 9.1

@Claymore, would you please advise?
How do I get this to work? to my understanding, v11 of the miner is supposed to support CUDA 9.1.


Thanks.

Nice job Claymore this version performs the same as you're competition.   Seems very stable like 11.0
You still have me with the duel mining.  I just hope the bitmain eth ascis are just a rumor.

Hi,

i think the ASICs are at this moment not a big deal.

As i know, the announced ASICs has a similar Price per Hash ratio as a GPU mining rig and a similar energy consumption...

There are no ETH ASIC announced. The Bitmain ETH ASIC is just a scantly detailed rumor from a Chinese website that had no details on hash rate and no release date other than potentially "Q2 or Q3 2018".

RX550 runs now with 13.8 MH/s up from  11.2 MH/s. Thanks Claymore!

I have indeed but then the temp of my cards goes beyond 70C which I don't feel comfortable with as it may affect durability...

The settings in overdriventool or MSI afterburner also depend on the modifications made on the VBIOS level.

I have a six 470 rig, modded BIOS with Claymore 11.2 and the following config:

-dcri 1
-cclock 1240
-mclock 2200
-cvddc 950
-tt 72
-fanmin 50
-fanmax 90
 
Does anyone know why I'm getting about 27MH/s for the 5 GPUs and 32MH/s for 1 of them?
The GPUs are identical and bought on the same batch.

[phuocduong]

thanks, i using it now, i see same v11.2

[Xianantung]

thanks, i using it now, i see same v11.2

Is that more stable?

Nevermind, upgraded to 11.3 with auto dcri; getting about 32MH/s per card; auto dcri works perfectly taking the guesswork out.

Great job @claymore !

Hello,

i am mining with claymoreminer ETH only, mining works fine but i do not receive the ETH in my wallet.

Do you see any mistakes here?

Most pools have a min. payout hurdle.... I am on Nanopool and there for example the min. payout is 0.2 ETH. Could that be the reason?

Hi all, testing 11.3 for now it is great...3 1070 nvidia, 3 rx550 and 6 rx580 all fıne and +2 mh total..thx for the good job guys

What is your total hashrate? I am running a rig with 13 RX580 cards and output on nanopool with Claymore 11.3 is 398.5 mh/s.... Phoenix 2.7c miner output is 396-397 mh/s.

What is it and why does it restart the miner?

[Omg9500]

Looks like your GPUs are stalling/crashing which causes the watchdog to jump in. typically too much overclocking, undervolting or similar which causes your GPUs to crash.

Hello, @Claymore! Since it's getting warmer outside it would be fine to consider -ttli affect while rebooting by -minspeed. E.g. "-minspeed 10250" will reboot rig slower than 250Mh, but only if any of GPUs are throttling.

PS My previous problem is still there. New miner instance cannot take 3333 port after restarting in reboot.bat without actual rig reboot. Different rigs, different Windows installations, days of waiting - socket is busy anyway after "-minspeed" restarting. Also I noticed if I close miner with "X" button above, it shows "Quit, please wait..." for a while, after this sockets close immidiately. Maybe if you could execute procedures hidden in this "please wait" sign after minspeed detection, it will solve the problem?

PPS -dcri autodetection is great! Got +12 Mh from my rigs. Thanks! ) BTW, is best dcri different for different DAGs? Last year I was measuring best dcri for each GPU by myself, but yesterday realized all of them are wrong...
