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

[VictorGT]

Running 11.4... No problems.

0.5 MH/s more with auto DCRI per 4XX card.

Less hashrate changes. GREAT. No more changes from 29 to 25

Claymore developer.

I was a PhoenixMiner fan for a while.
You have pulled me back in.
Great job. You miner is now faster and for me most reliable.
Very nice features you've added ( especially the auto tune )
Keep this up and there won't be anyone left with the other miner.

I am stable on 11.4

2 rx580s with micron ram are doing 62.3 combined. Zero rejects, stale, or incorrect.

Today I noticed while testing 11.3 that both my rigs power consumption started out low (as configured), but crept higher later on.
The smaller 2 card rig was drawing 130W more than normal.  Core voltage showed 1.05V in HWinfo when I had config.txt set to 875.
The larger 6 card rig was also pulling 100W more than expected after some run time.

I hadn't seen the problem on v11. Now I upgraded to 11.4 - testing so far is good.
The power consumption problem took 8-12 hours to fully develop.  Monitoring still...

Positive note - I do see very small improvement in hashrate with 11.3 / 11.4 (rx580 4GB).

Since upgrading from 10.6 to 11.3 (and now 11.4) my hawaii rigs are having hash rate drops every so often. About 5-7% drop lasting for around 2 minutes before going back to normal for about 10-15 minutes before it happens again. Any idea what might be going on?

Confirmed same issue with an rx390 (Hawaii)

Edit, mine did it on 11.0 and 11.2 as well. But not on any 10 version or prior. It also seems to be a bit longer that 10-15 minutes between drops but they are sustained drops, not like a one off.

Guys, I wanna share something interesting, and what I consider to be somewhat awesome.


Since switching to 11.3, I've noticed that my rigs are putting out less heat.  My house is much more tolerable than it used to be!  Such a noticeable difference too!
My thermostat used to read 76 degrees, steadily throughout the winter, with windows open.   Now it reads a nice n' cool 72 degrees!

There appears to be no decrease in performance with my rigs, only a nice boost since Claymore's more recent updates.


I busted my killawatt a while back, so I can't check the power draw from the wall at this time to see if there is anything interesting happening there, unfortunately.

In summary, My hashrate has never been so good, thanks to Claymore's fine work with his miner.  I've got ZERO rejected shares going on about 48 hours, and my house is cooler, which makes me believe my cards are less stressed, potentially drawing less power.


Life is good.



Thanks, Claymore - you rock!

Maybe this:
This sounds like a temperature issue.
Your GPU reaches a certain temp.
Miner reduces intensity so the temp can come down.
Once temp lowers GPU intensity goes up again.
Over and over.
These are settings in the config file.

Or. It's something else.

It's definitely not a temperature issue on my rig. The card runs at a constant 71 degC

i didn't necessary mean your rig was running hot.
It was this setting.

-ttli   reduce entire mining intensity (for all coins) automatically if GPU temperature is above specified value. For example, "-ttli 80" reduces mining intensity if GPU temperature is above 80C.
   You can see if intensity was reduced in detailed statistics ("s" key).
   You can also specify values for every card, for example "-ttli 80,85,80". You also should specify non-zero value for "-tt" option to enable this option.
   It is a good idea to set "-ttli" value higher than "-tt" value by 3-5C.

 If you had that set to 71 or below it would cause a similar issue.

Anyway. Good luck. Hope you find the issue.

now switch to 11.4  

lol

I'm a bit reluctant to do so at this point....  I may test it out after a few more days of mining on 11.3

[wOvAN]

11.4 - still 8-10% stales

let's wait a day to make sure

Unrelated to temperature, it's definitely something to do with 11.x versions.

hi please use eu1.ethermine.org:14444 for devfee my net is limited for ssl and 4444 port or set is dynamic if cannot connect to ssl try other ways

[Bob_chemist]

Claymore,

just after start miner uses about 800 Mb of memory, and after a while only 150 Mb. Is it a bug?

[ivanpop]

It needs more ram to get the things going. What's the problem?

[Viaggiatore]

@Claymore
tested the 11.4 for 10 hours on my 8 GPU rigs splitted in 2 instances:
- 4 dual GPUs, incorrect shares 3,27%
- 4 solo GPUs, incorrect shares 0%

Is there something wrong again? Giving the situation no point in doing dual...
Good news is that stale was 3.1% ;-)
Thanks

I don't see this issue on my test 390X card. You can try to change -dcri to see if it helps. Also you can PM me the log file, I will check it.

Stale shares rate must be the same for both ETH-only and dual modes, in my tests it's 1-2%.
