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

[Grumble Bumpkin]

I have a strange problem with my miner since Windows 10 1803 and I wonder if any of you have had similar issues that you've solved. The rig is a tiny hobby system: a B250 Mining Expert with four RX580's of varying brands. All cards have modded BIOSs, and I overclock using my start.bat options.

I looked back through the mining logs from Claymore (11.2 at the time) to see that before the update restart, all cards were going at near 31 Mh/s, a rate that it had been maintaining for months with no problem. After the update, all cards were running at 18.5 Mh/s.

When I noticed, I updated my AMD drivers to 18.5.1 and set it to compute mode, and updated Claymore to 11.7. At that point, one of my four cards was back to 30 Mh/s, all the rest remained at 18.5 Mh/s. I've checked my VM, which is at 48000 MB, so I doubt that's an issue. I haven't managed to locate anyone else on here reporting a similar issue, so I'm wondering if any of you have dealt with this and if so, how?

Thanks!

That's really interesting, I have 13 cards on same board, and I just added one of them to the system. Should be the best one for mining but it's running at 18 mh/s and all others 25+.
Love to know what's going on there, I'm in newest CM and newest driver as well, Win10 1709

Did you set all GPUs to compute? It is a setting in the registry under each GPU. With AMD settings software you have to set them one by one. CM with Y or AMD-Compute-Swithcer will set all installed GPUs to compute, but when you add GPUs after that, they will not be set to compute by default. Sorry if you already knew this.

Fantastic catch, Jonet. In looking back to the Radeon settings, it appears that "global" settings is only for each card individually, which is a bit misleading lol. Anyway, you are correct and all cards are back up to 31 Mh/s now! Thanks!

Tonight, I will go all the way back to 1709 with NO UPDATES, and see if it works.  If not, I will try 1607 with NO UPDATES and see if that works.  So bothersome :-)

If you install 1709 and set "feature updates" to be deferred for 365 days you will not get 1803. Windows Update - Advanced options.

Brilliant, thank you so much!

v11.8:

- fixed issue with missed GPU temperatures when miner is started via Remote Desktop Connection (RDC).
- Linux version: removed libcurl library dependency.
- added "-showdiff" option.
- a few minor bug fixes and improvements.

Was expecting a bigger update with some hashrate improvements and some interesting suggested features but looks like i'm gonna stay with PhoenixMiner again :'p

Thanks Claymore for your work, you make life a little better for thousands of miners all around the world :-)

v11.8:

Thanks again.

Temps via RDC and new option -showdiff work fine.  

Just a note: in readme file you forgot to indicate value of the new option -showdiff 1 (missing 1)

Hello,

I have issue with my rx480 mining rig, it runs before perfect, but i ahve to change ssd, and after the new win10 installation, the miner stuck after detecting pools.

I use latest win10 ltsb, asrock h81 btco pro r2.0 mobo. Onboard display is selected, and gen1 also.
I see my cards at the device manager, also installed the chipset driver, but the miner cannot start.

OverdriveNtool also detect my gpus. Change the mobo and the cpu as well, it isnt solve the issue, any idea?
I think something missing, but i dont have a clue, out of ideas

I slammed the ignore button before I could think.  I guess if you're going to suck, you might as well put a little effort into it.

MANY THANKS, Claymore!!!

Disable ULPS from regedit... also, just a little patience, it's not stuck, it just takes a little more time than usual but if you disable the ULPS then it should start faster

Just put 0 instead of 1 and do a restart.

any info about "showdiff" parameters - default, etc?

You are correct, thanks, I updated OP:

-showdiff   use "-showdiff 1" to show difficulty for every ETH share and to display maximal found share difficulty when you press "s" key. Default value is "0".

Hi,
please submit your updated hashrate results to
https://gpustats.com
Thanks

[groovytechno]

Thanks Claymore.   Happy to give 11.8 a go.   

I dig the new -showdiff 1 option.

Tested on my rigs, works fine. All my rigs are windows 10 (1709). I don't RDC.
-showdiff works sweet.
No improvement in hashrate

I forget it to write, vut i also disable ULPS, i leave the miner running for 2-4 hours, and it gives, the claymore sign and pools again and again

Thanks!!!!! Now my rig immediately starts to mine!!! Will add 6 more cards

Then maybe use DDU in Safe mode, disable ULPS again and see if it's working... if not, then is something else wrong there.

Hello, I just like to report that, newer versions (11,2 forward, crashes with the OhGodACompany's Enlargement pill mempatch with GTX 1080s) Nvidia driver crash, doesn't happen with 9.8 Version, which works just fine.
without the mempatch works fine but the hash rate on the 1080 is a joke due to the GDDR5X memory.
Lubuntu 14.04 , driver 378.09

[denis1995]

Can some1 help me ?When I was mining whalecoin or ethereum i was getting 22mhs  per card. And now Im mining EtherZero and Im getting 11mhs per card? How to fix that? And after few mins mining OpenCl error -4 http://prntscr.com/jpyhaf

actually i noticed that 11.6 does that (low hash rate with ethelargement pill), but 11.4 runs fine at 50+ mhs. driver doesnt crash on 11.6, just low hash rate. havent tried 11.7 yet.

thought it just operator error on my part.have 2 1080tis on ethlargment.
