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

[calculatorduck]

Some news:

- Finally AMD released ADL10, so I can add temperature/clocks management for Radeon 4xx cards.
- I almost finished NVIDIA support.

I will release new version in 2-4 days.

PS. Still no good nvidia driver for 1070 card for Windows 7/10 for ETH mining? Right now I see ridiculous 1MH/s speed.

There is a driver that works. You need the latest Windows 10 update (anniversary edition 1607) and then you need to update the driver through windows (weird I know, nvidia hasn't published it yet).

You can find the details here: https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/2227/cuda-miner/p64

Then the 10xx series will work with Win 10.

Hey Claymore,

Will the Nvidia support be a seperate .exe or will the new miner be able to mine with Nvidia and AMD in the same system and claymore instance?  Also will it Support Kepler and Maxwell or just newer Pascal stuff?

I'd like to test it on Win7 firstly, I don't like Win10 with its paranoid defender, updates, two control panels, etc. Anyway, I will try to make it work in Win7, if it fails I'll try Win10.

v6.0 will support amd or nvidia or mixed amd+nvidia in same system. I test it on 970, 980 and 1070 cards on recent drivers. Nvidia 980 works a bit worse in dual mode than AMD 290/390, did not try 1070 yet.

Ya, the fix seems to be exclusive to Win10 but people are getting 30+mh/s now with the 1070s.

I have a GTX 960 in my desktop system and the only way to get more than 3mh/s is to use a build of Genoil's miner on CUDA 6.5 and use the older 347 nvidia drivers. Then I get around 10mh/s with it.

GTX 960 MAKES ~10MH/s MINING ETH--

I have a five card GTX 960 rig on Ubunto 14.04 and it makes about 52MH/s total.  A properly configured GTX 1060 will do twice that, 18-20MH/s, same as a good GTX 970.       --scryptr

Sorry again for OT but scryptr, have you tried xcn with those 960's?

Ya I know 10mh/s is about all a 960 will get, just saying it requires me to use an older driver and CUDA version to get it unfortunately.

BTW - which GPU is the most powerfull for ETH mining and what is the hash speed of it??

390X or 1080? Or something else...?

Go for MSI 390 - 270-280 dollars - 30 Mhs Eth + 600 Mhs Sia
Avoid Gigabyte

far cheapear them 1080 and almost the same for eth

390s are also very stable & solid performer esp. those MSI ones.

But beware..... 390s are gas-guzzlers! They can suck the life out of your PSU.

Always undervolt - I get 30.xxMhs per card after -96mV/1040/1125 in AB.

I under volt to 990 mV of the core voltage and can get 27.5 MH/s with 978/1000 MHz. The power consumption is about 160W on the wall.

WHAT IS XCRI? --

My GTX 960 cards are happily mining ETH just now.  Please let me know some more about XCRI.       --scryptr

Hey Guys,

i need a bit help.. i am just switching my rigs to mine with Claymores mining (i do have alot of R9 Nanos).. for testing purpose i started moving 1 rig with 5 R9 Nanos to mine with Claymores Miner.. i justed to mine with EthMiner on local proxy with hashrate around 125Mh.. no moving to Claymore Miner i only get 82Mh and 4900Mh on Sia.. i was setting global and local worksize when i was connecting with Ethminer to the proxy.

is such difference normal form 125Mh to 82Mh.. if not does anyone have pointer?

Thnx!

ps on ethminer with proxy the card where getting close to 80c now they are at 70 and even some cooler.. so it seems the cards aren't going all out?

[d57heinz]

Over 48 hours Rx 470 mining 21.5 mhs with genoil 1.1.7 in the 110 branch of github latest 16.8.1 hot fix drivers. So def is claymore miner. I Just run three 390x with claymore and rx470 In separate instance with genoil.  If you get xfx 390x they are unlocked and can be undervolted for significant gains in efficiency with no loss in mining speed.

Best Regards

XCN, I remember 750ti did 5MH on djm´s miner, 960 could be profitable if it is doing more. Nethash is already 3GH but still could be worth checking.

Claymores miner does 8-9MH on 290x so nice nvidia advantage there, atleast on 750ti.

But that is still less efficient than the AMD RX 480. If you have higher power price, it is better to use 480.

XCN JUST HAD A PRICE SPIKE--

I checked it out, looked at the thread, and tried to find a current CCminer for it.  DJM34's work is from 2014, about v1.02 of CCminer.  I found a CudaMineer binary, but haven't been able to launch it yet.  Claymore's miner for XCN has recent.y been updated for Win10, and sits at v2.2; his is the most current GPU miner available.  SuprNova pool for XCN just re-opened.

I will fiddle with it later, I have a rig to build.       --scryptr

 I am trying to get a headless (without X) system running with manjaro Linux.
The mining works, but when I start claymore's miner I get this error between the lines:
ADL Initialization Error!
And because of this I can't have temperature monitoring/management.

Claymore or anyone else with linux knowledge, is it possible to have ADL (AMD Display Library) working without X installed ?

[janos666]

Is the explicit check for "AMD hardware" (through the OpenCL provider, it seems) really necessary?
I was curious how the new in-tree opensource "amdgpu" Linux driver with Mesa's OpenCL 1.x implementation might performs but your miner refused to start.
It's supposed to handle mining workloads (the Mesa wiki explicitly mentions mining) unless you have OpenCL >1.2 code. The 4.5-RC1 kernel is also supposed to be able to control things like GPU and RAM clock speeds through sysfs variables (so, ADL won't be mandatory either, although I guess the number of the available controls is very limited at this point, so ADL should probably be preferred for now).

I am trying to get a headless (without X) system running with manjaro Linux.

I saw many claiming it's possible. I use a dead HDTV motherboard as a phantom display (one HDMI cable per system should suffice, so one board might provide for 3-4 "rigs" and you can pull one from any dead TV). I think those who succeeded might use some older VGAs which still have internal DAC (digital/analog converter for analog D-sub output) and they automatically claimed the DAC as their phantom display.

Thanks for the reply, but  by headless I meant a system without the X server installed, not without a monitor connected. I think there are ways to trick the driver into thinking there is a monitor connected once you have the X server running.

I use a headless linux rig, well... I try to use lunix in all my PCs

At the end I solved that problem installing X, but only the core.

Then add the enviroment variable DISPLAY.

Code:

export DISPLAY=:0

Don't forget add the information in the X file conf:

Code:

amdconfig --adapter=all --initial

Reboot, and see if your problem is solved.
