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

[espressodelisi]

I've tried the new 6.3 version with linux ubuntu 14.04

./ethdcrminer64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found (required by ./ethdcrminer64)


going back to 6.2 for now.

Ok, rebuilt in 14.04, please redownload it.

i use 4x r9 390 from 116MH drop to 98 MH only

ubuntu 14.04 with miner version 6.3

any solution ?

[alevlaslo]

SIA and DCR is drop, ETH+lbry need very

v6.3. This version is assumed to be stable, so it is not marked as "beta".

- added support for NVIDIA 10xx cards in Linux.
- fixed issue with gpu-pro drivers in Linux.
- minor improvements in OpenCL kernels.
- bug fixes.

Does it mean it is faster than the previous version in the AMD R9 390 hashing?

I have not updated since the 4.4. Is that recommended for faster speed?

Slighly slower in my opinion.

6x R9-390 Rig with 6.2beta - Hashrate up to 184 MH/s

with 6.3 Hashrate up to 181 MH/s on this Rig

ok, there is no Problem for me about 3 MH/s at 6 Cards slower. I will try it for a longer Term. Maybe it´s a Parity Lag.

The RX480 Rig works with same hashing Speed as before

I get about 1% slower on 2 470s vs 5.3 miner. Haven't tested long term at pool, but reported values by miner are slightly lower.  About 0.3MH/s for eth, and 6 MH/s for sia slower (each card).  W10 latest drivers.

Hello, on my PC(1070 372.54,win 10 AU) does't work option -tt 34 -tstop 45\-45(GPU just does't turn off or miner does't close).Why?

[Claymore]

I had to change OpenCL kernels because of problems with gpu-pro Linux driver. Since it seems it works a bit slower, in next version I will return old kernels for Windows and will use new kernels for Linux only.
Right now for Windows you can use v6.2 Beta.

hi all
i try to build a new rig and looking for some suggestions.i m using ubuntu 14.02 ltc ,ashrock btc pro and usb risers so mostly im interesting for gpus info (hash,power consume etc).There was a link somewhere in this article that shows some counts of users.......
 thnx in advance

Imho the best AMD GPU´s for mining are the new RX460,470,480 series. My next Rigs will build with this Cards. I will only wait for manufacters Cooling Solutions. One of my two Rigs hold 2 x RX480 in Reference Design. Each of them Drains 190 W Power with Powerlimit 0 and mining @ 26 MH/s.
Nvidia built great Cards too with better Hash per Power but the ROI (Return of Investment) is very high.

There are two Sources I use:

and  ps_jb Thread of Comparison in this Forum

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1550780.0;topicseen

Hope this helps,




Gary

thnx for answer....
i know the 1st site its not much realiable ...some ppl there writes crazy things but ofc you can get a +-1 hash idea  
the second link is what i was looking (i save it this time )
about 460 check this http://cryptomining-blog.com/.
the 26 mh/s you get it from 4 gb carg or 8? because if its at 8 the price goes up (europe here) so the 470 can be a beter choice (470 8gb 24,5 mh/s)

Doesn't show power though. Popular cards are 280X, 390, 390X, RX 470/80.  390X is fastest card, though it uses a lot of power.  GTX 1060 slower, costs more (except new 3GB models), but use a little less power, a lot easier to find.

I use 470s, though they are hard to find the better ones, with limited order quantities unless you look on ebay.  ~22-24MH (8GB model is faster, has 8Gbps memory), power usage is fine, easily undervolted (Wattman, though recent miner version lets you control somewhat under linux).  Best price/perf is Sapphire Nitro 470 4GB, has 7Gbps memory, undervolts really well, stable boost clocks).  PowerColor Red Devil almost as good, doesn't hold boost clocks while dual mining.  480 is slightly faster, but extremely hard to find at MSRP, and may not be worth extra cost. I ordered a 1060 3GB to see how it does, cost similar to 470, not as fast, but a lot easier to find.  3GB will limit time it mines Etherium, though would be fine for other ethash coins.

390X ~33MH, 270W
280X ~25MH, 220W
470 ~22-24MH, 160W
1060 ~20MH, 130W
Power numbers at the wall, estimating/looked up all but 470.

thnx for answer
how you take at 280x 25mh ? i have 3x280x at my 1st rig with default values i take max 19,5 , dual mining ofc

Wow, so many newbie accounts - never seen that before!

As for hasrhrate, on the new release 6.3 - I only see a 0.6% change on that.

Not that this is what you should be checking hashrate - shares per hour for ETH.

But, checking shares per hour usually takes 24 hours, sometimes 48 hours.

I had to change OpenCL kernels because of problems with gpu-pro Linux driver. Since it seems it works a bit slower, in next version I will return old kernels for Windows and will use new kernels for Linux only.
Right now for Windows you can use v6.2 Beta.

The new version 6.3 runs on Linux without errors, but 7% less hashrate.

What Linux? What drivers? What cards? If you want to report some issue, please share a bit more info.

About ADL in GPU-PRO drivers, just found a beautiful answer:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96786

...
ADL is not supported in the amdgpu-pro driver.  The same functionality can be accessed via standard Linux interfaces (e.g., hwmon for temperature and fan control, sysfs for clock control, etc..
...

So AMD decided not to worry about ADL support in new drivers for Linux. Excellent solution.

Hey, thanks for 6.3 release. Linux version looks smooth so far, no more VM fault errors.
One of your corefeatures in my opinion is the selectiv shutdown of cards in case of overheat, maybe you can implement this also with the new AMDGPU driver ?

You can query the temperature of the cards from: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/temp1_input
To identify the cards that are useing amdgpu driver you can query the /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/name class ?

BTW: Overclocking is done by the keys  /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pp_mclk_od (Memory Clock)  and /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/pp_sclk_od GPU Clock. +1 changes value by 20.

To Claymore:

Do you have plans for other alts couples to mine?

Looks like SIA and DCR are dead

you mean if the price of a coin drops 10% its dead?

Just to clarify
For temperature just get it from /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon/hwmonX/temp1_unit, the result must divide by 1000 to get the correct celcius
and we can check whether the hardware is amdgpu or not by checking /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/name , If it is amdgpu then it's the right one.

Above file can be access without root.

For overclocking and setup fan speed currently the user has to be root, even sudo is not working. Maybe the user need to be included in specific group first. I leave this to the linux user, since we only need to set it once. Note that when using root user the path is no longer /sys/class/hwmon but change to /sys/class/drm/cardX/device/hwmon

For memory +1 increase 20Mhz, for core clock +1 increase 12MHz. To get the highest one use -1 instead.

Maybe for now just include the temperature so the watchdog can protect the miner in case something happen.

SIA dropped way below 10%

And yes - I mean that SIA is dead

To Claymore:

Is it possible to add some hotkeys to change "-li" option like "+" and "-" for "-dcri"
