24 MH/s with only 106 watt is a good balance

Now, please excuse me if this was already mentioned, as I just did a quick look at last few pages, but there is something I don't understand about this incident.

The pins burned on that pic are +3.3V/Ground (ATX 24pin, pins 2,3). How could RX 480 possibly draw so much 3.3V from PCIe to burn the ATX pin? The biggest draw measured on that line was 5W (PCper), with others pointing even lower values (2.5W during benchmark).

The burned pins are both +12V of ATX connector. I think you forget that pinouts are of the plug, not socket.
Why only +12V burned? Because there are many more pins for ground, so each had less current.

So it can technically feed more thru the 12+ then the ground can return.  Yes there is some burnt off as heat but most comes back down the return. And if that isn't the same as the 12+  then you have meltdown.

Kirchhoff's first law disagrees with this. Current incoming is always equal to current outgoing.

Seen this many times now and that's the best I came up with as to why the 8 pin can deliver so much more and doesnt add anything more other than two more grounds and another voltage sensor.

6 pin can deliver much more power in reality. I know, I use it to power some devices from computer PSU. It's just about limiting how much power should be drained, probably because many PSU are crap.

I would also like to state that -12V is almost not used today. It may by used by audio circuit on motherboard, but it's absolutely not used with +12V to power anything heavy. See how small current is allowed (specification of the PSU). Voltage is too small to create any arc. You make some bizarre explanation to explain bizarre situation, but it was just the +12V pins that burned because of too much load.

Thank you for clearing that up for me. I appreciate you taking the time to provide a thorough explanation.  I would have to agree with you after reading up on it.  This brings to light a serious issue in pcie configuration does it not.  Providing three positive lines while only providing 2 grounds.  75 watts gets split by a third over three but only half over the ground.  Thus most likely causing the overheating.   Thanks again for stearing me straight.

Best regards

I have strange issue when mining Expanse:
ETH - Total Speed: 116.244 Mh/s, Total Shares: 57, Rejected: 0, Time: 00:18
ETH: GPU0 25.200 Mh/s, GPU1 25.221 Mh/s, GPU2 25.482 Mh/s, GPU3 20.171 Mh/s, GPU
4 20.170 Mh/s
Gpu 3 and 4 are r9 380 remaining gpu's are 7950's why would the r9 380 be so much slower given the lower difficulty of exp?

I used the driver on the CD and did not install any of the bloatware.

I am currently testing RX 480 Radeon cards. So far getting about 24 to 28 mh/s each card with no tweaks.
Using v4.7 and the stock 480 driver from Sapphire.
Will post more stats as I start to push it.
I hope that the new drivers will work as much as the 15.12 do with current cards.
 

I am getting the same hash great so far for refrence cards there amazing.

There is a stock 480 driver from Sapphire?

I used the Crimson 16.6.2 from AMD and I get 24-25MHs, but not up to 28MHs

Also noticed on this rig when using -allcoins 1 flag overclocking does not work on 3/5 gpu notice this from logfile.

With -allcoins 1 overclocking only works on cards listed as "recongnized" also on this rig i have issue of "GPU 0, OpenCL error -4 - cannot create DAG on GPU" it is always on cards 0-2 never on cards 3-4, it eventually loads fine after random number of watchdog resets.

Compare this log to my 280x rig

[skyboyextreme]

you are getting 25 mh/s per 7950 ? how come mine is only hashing at 16 mhs 

[merc84]

you are getting 25 mh/s per 7950 ? how come mine is only hashing at 16 mhs  

That's because Expanse dag is much smaller than eth, on eth my 7950 get 20mh/s @ 1100/1500 (hynix ram). What doesn't make sense is that my r9 380 which hash faster on Eth 21Mh/s hash slower on Exp. Btw thats 25Mh/s with default clocks (960/1250) on the 7950 because oc does not work for some reason on this rig when using -allcoins 1.

Hi,
How i can change/set timeout time after disconnect? Now 20sec and it very much for my bad internet provider

[EastSound]

my 330watt x51r2 with XFX RX480 8GB no OC, been running for 24hr+ @24Mh/s

24 MH/s with only 106 watt is a good balance 

It is very good mining efficiency. It is almost as good as my AMD R9 nano with Helix's wonderful BIOS.

No body is going to create ASIC hardware for an algorithm used by a single coin that will be unprofitable in half a year.

Just take sample for mininghub from OP and set you credentials. It uses port 20536. You try to use port 20535 which requires -esm 2 option and login/name instead of wallet address.

While trying to mine EXP (@dwarfpool), some rigs work fine but others hang while changing DAGs. Same miner, same config. They all work fine doing ETH.
How do i fix this? allcoins switch?

Been using the Claymore Dual Miner (v4.6b) since I bought my first AMD card last week (a Gigabyte RX480) and loving it 
  I'm running under voltage by 10% with the memory bandwidth raised to 8800mhz. 

  I'm seeing the following results which I am pleased with (currently)
     24M/H ETH
     350M/H DCR

I have a Will-A-Watt arriving on Tuesday to pull loads at the wall.

@Claymore - Any expected release date for the next version with support for NiceHash DeCred pool? 

Thanks from a Rookie Miner (Only at it 30 days)

Hello everybody.
Tell me please.
Can I use a miner for a solo fork ether?
Tks.

Yes. The Claymore miner can mine solo.
