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

[adamvp]

no, if you connect it properly...

Trimegistus did you check it with another miner?

Hi, Mr. Claymore.

I have a system with 3 amd gpus and 1 nvidia gtx1070.
I used previous 6.x dualminers without a problem with bat file - the text provided:

Code:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -mode 1 -di 3 -r 1 -tstop 83 -epool pool_addr_hidden:8008 -ewal wallet_hidden/gtx1070 -epsw gtx1070 -dpool http://sia-eu1.nanopool.org:9980/miner/header?"address=sia_wallet_hidden&worker=gtx1070" -dcoin sia

Yeah, in only eth mining mode.

But with latest 6.4 I have following error. See log

Code:

What can it be? Thanks!

Hi Claymore,
Off topic this..... are you still updating your XMR miner?
Is this a viable 3rd coin, after DCR and SIA for dual mining?

I don't see ways to make my XMR miner faster, but right now I test it with latest cards and in a few hours I will release new version that will detect latest cards and use best settings for them.

xmr or lbry i think
xmr is very cool algorytm
xmr has bye orders more than eth

XMR cannot be added to ETH dual miner as the second coin, though in theory it could be added instead of ETH, i.e. as first coin.
I will check LBRY and some other coins very soon.

Hi Claymore! What are your thoughts about next Dual mining move? XMR+SIA? XMR+??? ETH+???
Thank you for all you do here!!!
peace

Yeah, in only eth mining mode.

"-di 3" - you enabled one nvidia card and skipped all amd cards. Remove this option to enable all cards.

I'm checking possible options, but you definitely will see new version soon.

That is exactly what I want. To enable only 1 nvidia card. It worked with 6.3 and older versions but doesn't work with 6.4

Just checked, you are correct, it's a bug with indexing. Intermediate build with the fix (cuda :

So I hate to be like this going around and asking people. But I cannot seem to find GTX 1060 and GTX 1070 hashrates for Claymore's ANYWHERE! Can someone please tell me what they are getting on a 1060 and 1070? It would be much appreciated!

I have 1060 3GB, gets about 18MH Eth and 300MH Sia, 19MH with mem set to 2000Mhz.  I think 1070 can do around 26MH Eth with memory OC. 

For LBRY, 1060 3GB does ~138, I have a small OC so getting ~148.  1060 6GB would be ~150-160 stock, 1070 ~240.

[Trimegistus]

Using TWO PSUs on the same system is the issue IMO.

I don't think so. It was never an issue with older cards and I have excess power.

no, if you connect it properly...

Trimegistus did you check it with another miner?

Like I said before, the rig won't even boot.


I'm going to purchase some decent powered risers, I'm now convinced it's a power issue derived from the fact that the 480s are sucking a lot of watts from the PCi-e bus.

[QuintLeo]

  I think 1070 can do around 26MH Eth with memory OC. 

 I saw 30 briefly with a 800mhs memory overclock, but it wasn't stable long-term.

 27 MH/s with a 300 Mhs memory overclock on my pair of Gigabyte Windforce cards right now, no other OC attempted and due to IRL issues haven't had the TIME to try to fine tune them more yet.

I'm having trouble using this miner with a 970 running win10. I am only getting half the hashrate I should be. I know its a known issue and I'm told there are solutions, however I cannot get any of them to work. I have tried several drivers that I saw recommended elsewhere. Is there a solution for this problem that works with Claymore?

[yun9999]

I'm mining with NVIDIA 1070 using the recommended driver on first page (anniversary update) for win10 64BIT.  but I'm only get 3.5MH for ETH.  What is going on? This is for MSI 1070 and Asus 1070.  4 different cards tested separately.

[tryshop]

if that EthDcrMiner64.exe -cclock 1260,1260,1260,1260,1260 -mclock 2000,2000,2000,2000,2000 
miner work is 64%GPU load in all monitoring and no reset. -50W. When no -cclock -mclock monitoring 100% and can reset, +50W. Win10Anyversary

Prolly your system problem, go and run dxdiag check if display is with WDDM 2.1 support, it should be for win10 for mining ethereum

Also reinstall driver and check do a clean install

For 1070 with samsung memory ~33mhs is duable if 2350mhz clock is stable, the one with micron clock a lot less and they don`t go over ~28mhs

[yun9999]

It shows WDDM 2.0 .

Guys,

I'm having a hard time getting my new rig to boot  

MOBO: Asrock H81 Pro BTC
GPU: 6 x Rx 480 Sapphire Nitro 4Gb
PSU: 2 x Corsair 850 W
OS: Win10 x64

I have two molex connectors powering the mobo with extra juice and I'm not using powered risers.

Everything was running great with the previous video cards (R9 270) but now I can only get the mobo to boot with 3 video cards, and one has to be directly connected to the 16x PCIe.

Isn't it strange? I have extra power available and besides, the old video cards were consuming more power than these new ones.

Any ideas?

Change UEFI settings? Anyone messing with the Gen1/Gen2 setting?

Anything else?

I have another 6x480s coming soon!

Any help will be greatly appreciated  

Thank!

C'mon guys, a lot of you are using the 480 + H81 BTC Pro.

How do you manage to use 6 x 480 on this motherboard?

use powered risers for more than 2 cards

Do you mean I need to use powered risers when using more than 2 cards?

Humm... I've seen a lot of people complaining about the use of powered risers claiming they cause instability problems.

I have a few 1x to 16x powered risers and I'll give it a try. Fingers crossed  

Stay away from the  PCIE164P-M-BOARD VER:03 I had about 25 of these and 20 where intermittent and caused random reboots and POST failures.

i replaced with PCIE164P-M-BOARD VER:02's and PCIE164P-M-BOARD VER:05's  And 110% stable ever since.

must have been some bad luck or i have really good luck..  All mine are ver 3 and have not had one single issue.  Pd around 7.50$ avg pc.  well over 30 and counting  i never paid no attention to that till your post.  But seems mine have been doing great.  make sure if you can to not use the adapter for the power.  use the molex if you can.

Best Regards

Using TWO PSUs on the same system is the issue IMO.

Nah, you can use 2 PSU on the same system no problem.  You keep 1 power on all the time with the the motherboard shorter plug.  The other will power on the system so no issues.  All my rigs are that way and I have over 15 rigs as well as my friend who have 4.5GH.  You can't power 6 x 290 or 390 without using 2 PSU even with a EVGA 1600 when dual mining, it's pushing too much.  Regarding powering more than 2 GPUs, the advice to use power riser is correct.  That's the best way to do it, else you can fry your MB.  Each card PCIE can draw up to 75 watts or more before the driver update for RX480 so you multiply that by 6 and that's too much power to be asking from the MB.   Do not buy the skinny risers with the floppy drive looking power connectors.  They are very cheap and will burn out very easily especially when overclocking.  Go for the fat MOLEX power risers.  I threw away about 30 of the cheap skinny ones,never had issues with the FAT molex ones.  

All my Motherboards are
H81 BTC pro - Don't need to plug Molex into Motherboard (optional and I don't do it) - Press N to disable future warnings

H97 anniversary - Requires Molex into  MB for more than 3 GPU configs.  H81 is better, these tend to have higher DOA based on my collective mining group's experience with combine hashing power of over 12GH.

MSI Gaming 5 - This is the only board where you have to mess with the BIOS settings.  Change PCIE to Gen 1 for all first 3 on the list.  The other setting below needs to be 8x/4/4 instead of default if you want it to work for all your 1x risers.

[yun9999]

OK this is driving me nuts.  Claymore v 6.2 or 6.4.  I can't hash more than 3.5 MH Eth on any of my new NVIDIA 1070 ( 2 MSI and 2 ASUS).  Just reinstalled Windows 10 64bit and using 372.54 Anniversary update driver

ASUS Card memory - GPUZ shows is Micron.  Let me power off and check the MSI

I have 2 PowerColor Red Devil 470s, 2 Sapphire Nitro 470 4GB, and one Nitro 470 8GB, only the Nitro 8GB has Samsung, rest Hynix (this is Micron I think).  I have an EVGA 1060 3GB with Samsung. You can check with GPU-Z.

Waiting on CPU and risers for next rig, I can post my findings for others after that (more Nitros, 2 Asus, and Zotac).

Thanks! It works now. Cuda 7,5 in 6.3 is still faster then cuda8 in 6.4. 32.7 vs 32.4 with gtx 1070@100watt
