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

[visten]

btw, I am already using v11.9, i completely disabled Windows defender through the registry and disabled the entire windows firewall. Claymore still does not initialize at all, just closes after a few seconds...

did you add exemptions on your Defender for Claymore app?

Hi guys, I'm using 5 GTX 1060 6GB (ZOTAC AMP!) with the following variables and 16GB of page files.

GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

I'm mining with this server from january 2018 and until today I've no problem. During the claymore restart I noticed a strange error:

- CANNOT create dag file error 11 (something similar)

I tried to remove the updated driver and re-install the tested one: 372.54, but at the end I'm using -eres 0

Why is this necessary? I Read this:
-eres   this setting is related to Ethereum mining stability. Every next Ethereum epoch requires a bit more GPU memory, miner can crash during reallocating GPU buffer for new DAG.
   To avoid it, miner reserves a bit larger GPU buffer at startup, so it can process several epochs without buffer reallocation.
   This setting defines how many epochs miner must foresee when it reserves GPU buffer, i.e. how many epochs will be processed without buffer reallocation. Default value is 2.

So can I set to 1? or it's better 0?

Server spec:
- Windows 10 64Bit
- SSD 60GB
- 4GB RAM
- 5x GTX 1060 AMP Edition Zotac 6GB
- Claymore 10


As I said I've no problems until today. (What's -eres 0? Can someone explain this setting?)


EDIT:
This server is used in "Solo Mode" (Ethereum) with ethermine

What version did you use? If you used old version maybe that's the problem because I had this problem too, then I upgraded to the new version (not the latest) and the problem was gone. Maybe if you used old to try to change to the new one especially 11.9 has released

I also  got the same  problem  with  2  rigs  of  5   1080  ti   was  claymore  go  good  for  2  months  today  give  the  same   error  message  as  you   memory  dag  ca  not locate, I  try  to  set   baffer  seting   0   1   2   any  n.   will  no  work

Hello, first I am sorry if I am dual posting I tried to create a new post but for some reason it did not show up.

I need help with a sudden problem in my mining rig:

The machine is crashing for no reasons. I have tested all the graphic cards, all the risers. What is odd is that it works perfectly fine for only three graphics card. It was working fine with 6 GPUS with no problem.

I have tried all combinations of 3 graphics card, it works fine. As soon as I add one more graphic card, it crashes. Am I right in thinking that it is the Power Supply ? I cannot find anything wrong in the logs. MY PSU is evga supernova 1600 p2 and it is relatively new.

I am using claymore - I tried all versions - I am now using version 11.9. I am on Linux but tried on windows same problem.


Thanks for your help in advance
Cheers

at what point does it crash?

Almost all the time system crash was due to the driver vault. If you use Windows then maybe it's because of Windows update. Try to update DDU (AMD) or uninstall the driver and then reinstall the newest one.

Also use this for AMD: AMD ATI Pixel Clock Patcher v1.4.6

Is anyone able to still mine ETH using 3gb GTX GPUs on Windows 10 Pro? If so, what claymore options are you using? Thanks!

btw, I am already using v11.9, i completely disabled Windows defender through the registry and disabled the entire windows firewall. Claymore still does not initialize at all, just closes after a few seconds...

did you add exemptions on your Defender for Claymore app?

yes, I did! Any ihrer ideas? the rig is not running for 2 days now

No. Only Win 7, Win 8.1 or Hive OS (Linux)

Probably NOT the answer you are looking for, but have you tried a different miner until someone can help you resolve?
I've used phoenixminer in the past, but they've been giving me issues so I'm back on claymore.

Have you tried to DDU/uninstall and reinstall driver? It's like your miner crash at opencl/cuda init..

v11.9:
- fixed issue with incorrect shares for Keccak.

are there any minor updates except for Keccak? I mean is there a reason to update solo rigs?

No reasons to update if v11.8 is good for you, the only difference between 11.8 and 11.9 is Keccak fix.

Is version 12 in the works?

[kratoz]

still getting a lot of rejects in dual keccak. Win 10x64 claymore 11.9

I have been running Sapphire Pulse RX570 4G and RX580 8G GPU's for the past year using the Claymore dual miner (Win10 Pro) w/o any issues until a few days ago.  Same problem on 4 different rigs.  Any help will be much appreciated.

Perhaps try rolling back recent Windows updates.

Alternatively, DDU your AMD drivers and install the most recent Adrenaline driver.   Consider uninstalling and reinstalling Afterburner to the most recent version as well.


It's strange that your hash rates are so low though.


Best of luck!

try to download new Claymore miner package and save it to a different directory

exempt that directory and .exe file with your defender

ensure that no other AV's installed

copy your config from you previous CM

fire up miner

Hi all,
I am currently using Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v11.5 and it is running alright, is there a NEED for me to update & use the latest version ?

Thanks.

Hello! Is there an option to restart miner ( rig)  if incorrect shares number exeed some trashhold ?

An old rule that is followed

" If aint Broke, Don't fix it"

cheers!

[ms147]

haha true that, was just wondering if by updating i would be mining more efficiently or not haha
Cheers anyway. thanks
