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

[xanx]

Hi Guys and Gals,

What driver Version for AMD RX 4xx or 5xx are you using?
I cannot get the old 15.12 to run on Win10 1703.
Are the newer Versions fine with you performance and stability wise?

cheers!

Im currently using 16.9.2 as when I use the latest driver changing the clock speeds makes my cards go to 4mhz

hello i have problem. i am new about all of this
i have only HD7870 2 GB Card
take a look at that
OpenCL Error -61

2 gb memory is for ethere too little

2 gb memory is for ethere too little

sir i know that but is there any solution for work on 2 gb ?

I couldnt find anything related to this on the first page, so I need to ask:

Is it possible with a 2 card rig to let one card mine eth and one mine music?
Currently both are dual mining eth and dcr but since eth is getting more and more difficult to get and music is having a nice boost, I'd really like to get something of both coins

yes  use the -di option  its on the 1st page

-di    GPU indexes, default is all available GPUs. For example, if you have four GPUs "-di 02" will enable only first and third GPUs (#0 and #2).
yes  use the -di option  its on the 1st page.

you would run 2 instances so one gpu is mining  music and dcr  and the second is mining eth and dcr

 one bat file  will have -di 0   
second bat file will have  -di 1

put them at the end of  each  bat file

Yes, choose non Ethash algo coin like zcach or monero but to mine ethereum there must be room for dagger and this means at least 3 gb memory.

Definitely  newbie question but is there any difference in hash rate if u open multiple instances of the claymore client to mine separately with each GPU then to open only one client and mine with all of the GPUs in the same client?

You have to mine Expanse, Ubiq or Music.

Im having some weird problems with my WIFI whenever i run clay mores miner. When I am mining, my wifi is only working on my laptop in the same room as my rig and where my router is, but whenever I go to another room the wifi signal drops. If i turn claymore off/stop mining, my wifi is perfectly back to normal...can anyone explain this??

I did read some where that many GPUs together interfere with the WiFi signal, that explains why my rig keeps connecting and disconnecting from a strong signal that never drops.

Not sure if its true but sure explains my problem

hello guys, i have a question, i have 2x 480 saphire nitro 4gb.

The hashrate sometimes drop by 10-20% for a short moment, the hashrate is not stable.

in the readme there is :"KNOWN ISSUES - AMD cards: on some cards you can notice non-constant mining speed in dual mode, sometimes speed becomes a bit slower. This issue was mostly fixed in recent versions, but not completely.", it's the problem here ?

thanks

Hi folks I'm mining in UBUNTU
how can I solve this

Code:

Failed to set new fan speed, check if miner has root access!

Guys, Claymore miner has nothing to do with this issue, it was a win10 update that did this... just look into the Device Manager and see if the cards are ok, not with the yellow triangle (code 43).

It must be because after updating all my machines with the windows patch, I came home last night to 8 of my miners down and the video drivers uninstalled.  Today I came home to 8 more with the same problem and I was beginning to wonder if I have a virus.  This windows update is a trainwreck if it is the culprit.

I agree. 5 of my rigs went down, had to DDU and reinstall drivers, and 2 went back down today, same issue. Really annoying to have to try to fix remotely while at work.

I am doing the same, make sure you go into your update and security folder and uninstall the update, it seems to keep interfering with the drivers

Does anyone know if Windows Update Blocker ---- http://www.sordum.org/9470/windows-update-blocker-v1-0/ ----- is working after the Windows Creator Update last month? I'm considering trying it to try to reduce our downtime.

Did you resolve this? When i start messing with afterburner, my cards also drop to 4 MH/s. Resetting to default and rebooting seems to help. I am afraid to touch atm.

Don't bother using the clock settings in this car crash of a software. It is buggy as hell and will only succeed in crashing your system. Trust me I'm speaking from experience. I've been reinstalling Windows for the 4th time now, all due to Claymore messing up clocks on the GPUs and not being able to revert.

Try Acronis!

ethman v2.9 not showing on browser, i'm only seeing empty tables with black background . . . anyone having this issue ? ethman v2.5 works flawlessly

Yes, however it is a font color issue. Highlight the web app with your mouse and you will see the hidden numbers.

What update needs removal? I cant get my 6x 580 rig to work for dual mining. This shit pisses me off. I had updates disabled and they still pull this shit.

Edit: This is confusing. I can use the claymore ZEC miner just fine. But on the same rig the dual miner wont even get to the point it produces a log file. It just opens en closes again.

Well I rolled back to 9.2 and now the dual mining is working just fine. Very strange..

I would like to know that too, hope someone will answer.

Guys.. my GPUs are working on ethermine.org pool, I have 3% of stale shares.

Is that normal? Can I reduce the number of stale shares?

Or that is a problem with the pool? For example: the pool gives the same job for multiple users/workers?

My rigs are now rock stable, I use Claymore to do what it's intended to do (mining) and nothing else. Set my clock speed in vbios, so no need to run any third party overclocking software either.

But you know what, you did make a valid point. I will back up system images of my miners to my NAS. That's always a good idea in case sh*t hits the fan.

ive been using macrium reflect free for ages to make image backups of miners and regular rigs. cant beat the peace of mind. anything goes poof, restore and youre back up and running in minutes.
