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

[Breesus]

hey guys, got a weird one today.

We built a new mining rig with rx 470 4GB (MSI Gaming X, Samsung memory and yeah, we're lucky enough to have free electricity), we copied the 1500 memory straps from 1500 to 2000 (like we always do), but for some odd reason we can't OC our cards memory above 1850Mhz without having the good old GPU#X got incorrect share etc... which means our cards are stuck around 27.2Mh/s.

You guys got any idea what the problem might be ? We have downvolted anything yet so our cards are definitely not power starved, I'm just a bit confused.

First of all, you have free elec
Even if those cards are doing 15Mh/s youll have good profit...

But ok

What is your config? Win ver., driver ver., etc

Yeah, I'm definitely not complaining about our situation (the rig belongs to me and my brother), I just thought I could squeeze a lil bit more out of our cards since I saw a lot of people having around 30mh/s with the same cards.


So we're using Windows 10 (with the latest update), the latest Claymore version as well and the latest stable AMD drivers (18.12.2). In terms of hardware we are using :

ASrock H81 Pro BTC 2.0
4GB of DDR3
a 1000W Aerocool Gold+ PSU
a Celeron G1840 CPU
and of course 6* MSI Gaming X RX 470@4GB

I managed to slightly increase the memory clock to 1860Mhz but I can't go beyond that.

those cards are bios modded or you are using an afterburner to set the clocks?

Hey and sorry for the late reply (Xmas and stuff!). We tried to things:

1. No bios mod, we simply increased the clocks and we ended up with ~25Mh/s with the clocks around 2050Mhz but with a shit ton of GPU#x got incorrect shares

2. We then bios mod the card ourselves (using Polaris Bios Editor), copying the 1500 strap values from 1500 to 2000. (we also tried with the 1750 values from 1750 to 2000 as well), and this is the situation where we are at at the moment, with 27.2Mh/s and a few GPU errors here and there on our GPU2.

This is our rig stats btw: https://ethermine.org/miners/f6c10F2CB2A2161efb43e4e0eabee60629329d5a/dashboard

Any advices would be much appreciated !

try the driver versions 18.xxxx
and with the compute patcher turn all the gpus in one shot to the compute mode and share if you get better results

Weirdly enough a few days ago a couple of my 4GB GPUs (380/480) started saying there is not enough memory for DAG creation. Claymore's new v12 fixed that, but I it makes me wonder what the problem was?
The rigs are running Win10, Beta-Blockchain drivers and something like 4 out of ~50 4G rigs had this issue... wtf

same issue here
and the answer was only the v.12, talking on ETH mining, the other daggerhashimoto coins was rurring without any problems on the previous clay version

We're already on the latest stable driver version, the 18.12.2 with everything on compute mode. We just tried the latest Clayrmore version (12.0), didn't make much difference, still stuck at 27.2mh/s on average with our memory clocks at 1850mhz

Did you read the guide by Mattthev?

with memory at only 1850Mhz, 27Mhs is not bad

[deforester]

Winter is upon us and I need to either turn on an extra heater or dual mine

Got free electricity, so I'm still mining ETH with my 6 RX580. Is there anything worth to dual mine to just hodl?

[user0071]

My miner is randomly turning completely off. Kernal Power error 41

So here's the situation. 5 GPU (2 570, 3 580) with a 1000w corsair HX1000i

Machine has been running great for the past 5 months. Swapped out a 580 that a friend wanted with a 470. Hard drive crashed, so i got my backup files and reinstalled windows ect. Saved the config file for Overdriven so i have the same clocks and everything. Even when running WITHOUT the new gpu (so 4 cards pulling 600 from the wall), it will crash and give me the kernal power error. The only difference between software in the old install and the new install is I used radeon adrenaline 18.12 instead of 18.9. Could the new driver be the problem? When the computer does restart, i get the radeon warning that default settings have been applied to the GPUS. Even with the overclock, I am getting 0 memory errors in hwinfo. I'm HOPING the answer is to DDU and go back to 18.9, but are there any other reasons ya'll can think of? Is there a way to see which gpu is causing the crash?

Hi guys!

My Brave Browser is complaining about the 12.0 windows version being harmful. I've never had that warning on the older versions, is this the new Brave version being overprotective or has the file been compromised somehow?

I have no problems downloading the "mega" file via Mozilla, usually Chrome gives headache when downloading miners
so try Mozilla, or even Explorer should be good

try the driver versions 18.xxxx
and with the compute patcher turn all the gpus in one shot to the compute mode and share if you get better results

What did you meant by "the compute patcher turn all the gpus in one shot" is there a patcher that can puts all GPU to compute mode in one shot? if so could you provide a link?

Re: Claymore v12.0

THANK YOU for this latest version, Claymore! We missed you.

[ZombieWorm]

Any coin worth hitting on the dual mode then? Looks like the usual few are too difficult to get any recognised shares.

[Metroid]

@Claymore, I'm having problems with the ethman monitor when I close it, it says sometimes, "cannot save file, options_temp.ini make sure you have rights to create/write this file", I'm using windows 1709 and I have full access regarding write to a folder as administrator and this folder is on desktop, is not even in the c:/ drive root.

[Jonet]

There is one but you don't need it. Start claymore as administrator and press y. All cards will be in compute mode after reboot.

and if you have installed the AMD settings with the driver, do the DDU again and install the driver only, caust in the AMD settings you'll get the wattman that can cause headaches on compute mode with higher clocks

Just tried 12.0 version on NV 1060 3gb running Windows 7.
Mine ETH only with -eres 0. -eres 1 causes DAG errors.
Anyway, thanks for your miner!

[Jonet]

Hi there!
All my rigs are still on Windows 10 build 1709. Has there been any development regarding mining on Win10 build 1803 and later? Is it known what is/was causing the problem?
