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

[tbly13]

Just looking for some opinions here:
I fired up 2 AMD 7950's Dual-Mining ETH and Sia Last night. Been sort of tweaking the settings and Overclock over the past 12H but wanted to see if I am getting proper results for my settings:
BAT:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool us1.ethpool.org:3333 -ewal 0x9C242ad2B0cF40f58e01C7b8c3b79f83F792bD18  -dpool "http://siamining.com:9980/miner/header?
address=be71aa6e9ca5e046fde5c6fedc9a295bbf631acd300b57d7e20559bd53850f3d86442bc20ee8&worker=Work1" -dcoin sia
CLOCKS: AMD 7950: 1050/1500
Haven't done much OC tweaking/testing with these - Just raised memory clocks mostly to see a little MH boost
MH:
Client Side - ETH: ~25MH (Accepting around 20-25 Valid Shares/hour on ethpool). Sia: ~385MH (75-80k Valid Shares/Hr on SiaMining)
Pool Side Screenshots- ETH: https://www.screencast.com/t/ySMnJBLuwE , SIA: https://www.screencast.com/t/qZyq9wv9
Wondering if these results seem normal, or if I could be doing something better?
Thanks!

Thats pretty low for Sia. I've got a 7970 and it gets 12.5MH/s ETH plus 620MH/s Sia. You probably want to add the -dcri xx argument I have mine set at -dcri 49 and it gives me double the Sia while only lowing ETH by like 0.5 MH. You can tweak the -dcri value in the runtime using the +/- keys. Then hit "S" for stats and you can find your best ratio. Then put that in the start bat.

Thanks Vogonpoetry, Ill give that a try and let you know what I find!

[lazyturtle]

Is it possible to set specific GPU´s to dual mine and some to solo mine on the same rig? Say in a 6x gpu rig 3 would dual mine and 3 would solo mine. If this is possible, help with the config would be appreciated, thx!

Yes.  You would setup 2 separate calls to EthDcrMiner64.exe, each setting the -di parameter to indicate which GPUs to allocate to that particular mining task.

For example: 
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth.coinmine.pl:4000 -ewal lazyturtle.1 -epsw x -di 012 -dpool sia.suprnova.cc:7777 -dwal lazyturtle-dpsw x -dcoin sia -allpools 1
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth.coinmine.pl:4000 -ewal lazyturtle.1 -epsw x -di 345

Thank you for this, exactly what i was looking for, works perfectly!

Try UBQ, MUSIC or EXP you'll get 25 MH/s due to the smaller DAG, I'd also go easy on the SC with these older cards. I underclock mine and run the fan at 100% BTW.

[Crypto.Slack3r]

Does anyone know if its possible to have 3 cards mine EXP and other 3 card mine ETH on the same rig?

I have 3x 2GB card and 3x 4GB cards, so I can't mine ETH with all 6 due to DAG size.

How can I config the miner to mine 2 different ETH based pools (1 ETH pool & 1 EXP pool) at the same time?

Thanks!

My response to lazyturtle is applicable here as well - just substitute the second/solo mine call for whichever pool you need for the 2GB cards.

For example:  
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth.coinmine.pl:4000 -ewal lazyturtle.1 -epsw x -di 012 -dpool sia.suprnova.cc:7777 -dwal lazyturtle-dpsw x -dcoin sia -allpools 1
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool <EXP.pool.here> -ewal lazyturtle.1 -epsw x -di 345

Oh so you mean I just run 2 instances of the miner exe or 2 separate processes?

I'm sure there's more than 1 way to skin this cat but yes,  my suggestion was to call 2 instances of the executable within your batch file. The important aspect in those calls however is the -di parameter which specifies the GPUs to be allocated for that instance.

Well I'm just using the 7970 as supplementary to my main R9 390 which gets a nice 31MH. Pulling >43MH on two old cards is not bad at all, IMO. As for the SC, yeah dual mining really heats it up. Hitting 91C in a cool room, but I need to replace the thermal paste. Not even going to attempt dual mining on the 390. That thing is already a furnace. I turned it on once and it hit 94C pretty quick.

You think mining one of those coins would be more profitable on the 7970 than ETH+SC? It's gonna take forever to hit the payout in the Sia pool at this rate.

Hi! I was mining with a RX 470 and a RX 570 on the same rig. With modified straps and a little OC I was getting like 26.5 and 27.5 Mh/s respectively, using Ubuntu 16.04 with 4.8 kernel and amdgpu-pro 17.10 drivers.

Suddenly, even before I updated to the new 9.4, I started getting this warning:

This pool (eth-eu1.nanopool.org) does not support Ethereum addresses as login (or requires worker name in "Login.Worker" format) and cannot be used for devfee mining, therefore it is not supported.
However, you can mine on this pool if you specify "-allpools 1" option, default pools (different from this pool) will be used for devfee.

With this message also came a drop in performance, getting 26.5 Mh/s for the RX 470 (the same I was getting) and 15.5 Mh/s for the RX 570 (12 Mh/s less). Also I'm getting way higher CPU ussage. I already checked the logs and everything seems normal to me.

Have to note that on Windows 10, with latest drivers I'm getting arround 27.3 Mh/s for the RX 470 and 28.4 Mh/s with the RX 570, so it isn't a Hardware problem.

I tried with almost all flags of claymore miner, currently my launch script looks like this:

Code:

ETH_WALLET=MyWalletCode
PASSWD=MyPasswd
TMUX_NAME=MyMinerName
WORKER=MyWorkerName
EMAIL=MyEmail

GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=0
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE=100

/usr/bin/tmux new-session -d -s $TMUX_NAME
/usr/bin/tmux send-keys -t $TMUX_NAME "source ~/.zshrc" C-m

# Eth only
/usr/bin/tmux send-keys -t $TMUX_NAME "cd /home/user/Blockchain/Claymore && ./ethdcrminer64 -epool stratum+tcp://eth-us-east1.nanopool.org:9999 -tt 65 -tstop 85 -allpools 1 -mode 1 -mport -3333 -etha 2 -ethi 10 -ewal $ETH_WALLET/$WORKER/$EMAIL -epsw $PASSWD" C-m

What do you people recommend me to do? I work on the same rig I'm mining and I need Linux for my work, if I can't get anything back then I'll try on Arch linux.

[Kryptowerk]

Sure this has been asked before, but can't read 570 pages, so quick questions:

Does the Claymore miner accept AMD and NVIDIA cards in one rig without haspower loss?
Anyone with some info on that?

[kd0frg]

can or did claymore make a pure decred miner? im having major problems with sgminer and support for it i dont think exists..

is there a way claymore can release a decred miner and just take his eth mining fee programmed in himself into the exe or something? or some kinda flag or option for 9.4 to mine decred only, even with the intel 4600 gpu?

i have an amd rx580, rx480, and rx460, (8gb, 8gb, 4gb)

i need a suprnova or decredpool.org decred miner, bfg miner doesnt work on them, only sgminer and claymore.. does anyone have a solution? or can claymore respond?

[TechPark]

Is it possible to set specific GPU´s to dual mine and some to solo mine on the same rig? Say in a 6x gpu rig 3 would dual mine and 3 would solo mine. If this is possible, help with the config would be appreciated, thx!

First post......RTFM.

What first post? can´t find any information in claymores first post that shows how you would do what i ask for?......

Maybe you did not read my question? RTFQ

Create 2 separate bat files, in one target only 3 adapter by using "-di" key, in the other bat file target the other 3 adapters. 2 bat files may have separate config parameters. "-di" key is clearly described on the first page.

[bulgar73]

Is somebody using the new Sapphire RX 580 Pulse 8GB on Linux for mining? Any issues? Is Claymore even ready for this cards?

yes, i have 12pcs of them on ethOS, no problem 2 weeks online 24/7, ETH only 29,300

Hey everybody !

Sorry if my question's been asked already, but...

I need to go away, so I setup team viewer in order to remotely manage my rigs from afar. I want to make it even simpler, and automatically start the miner and GPUz softwares. Thing is, I need this all to start exactly 1 minute after the OS finished booting.

I already looked into the windoze task scheduler, but it doesn't offer that precise option, or I couldn't find it.

Any idea on how to delay the miner's start process, and start it all in one click ?

[SealTx]

Why Decred, Siacoin, Lbry, and Pascal?

I am guessing that Claymore has a large client that wants to mine those coins, but are there other requirements for a coin's hashing algo or miner so that it can be dual mined (easily) by Claymore?

Thats pretty low for Sia. I've got a 7970 and it gets 12.5MH/s ETH plus 620MH/s Sia. You probably want to add the -dcri xx argument I have mine set at -dcri 49 and it gives me double the Sia while only lowing ETH by like 0.5 MH.

Are you saying that one can mine these coins as option in the dual-mining mode? If so, how can I tell which coins I can mine in dual in addition to the official ones?

Idk, i use windows 10 and i put bat file in startup folder it start when windows boot and all goes well
Why you need to wait 10 seconds?

There are plenty pages talking and showing how to mine dual coins bro... just read some page behind and you will find response

Add "ping 127.0.0.1 -n 61 > nul" to your .bat file. 61 are the seconds you need +1. Then just add shortcut to the bat file in windows startup.

I need some help for this error:
GPU0, OpenCL error -4 (0) - cannot create DAG on GPU
gpu amd r9 380 4gb
OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP 1800.8

[aarons6]

i still get best results mining eth only on my rx 470s with version 9.2


the samsung rx 470s get 24.2 and my hynix rx 470s get 21.8 with the memory clocked to 1750.
some reason with version 9.4 i go minutes with lower hashrate on one of the cards, down to around 19mhs, its random not the same card. which ends up lowering my avg by like 3 or 4 mhs


anyone else seeing similar results?

[secondcomingwp]

I use this miner to mine Musicoin on an R9 270x (2gb) which works great as it manages to still work in the 2GB available (while ethereum no longer does).

Every time the dev fee kicks in it tries to mine ethereum and fails, at which point the program restarts itself.

Is there a way to configure it so the devfee is also mined using musicoin as I would like to be able to donate the time to the devfee and for claymore to get it (which as it currently stands he isn't).

[lsszmeja]

im getting weird results atm

when i use the following config (stock one that comes with the miner:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool us1.ethpool.org:3333 -ewal 0xD69af2A796A737A103F12d2f0BCC563a13900E6F -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -dwal Redhex.my -dpsw x

i get 29mhs on all cards with eth n proper mhs with dec (cant remember what it was from my head)

when i use the following config:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -dcoin sc -allpools 1 -epool My Pool -ewal My wallet -epsw x -dpool siapool -dwal siawallet

the hash rate drops to 23mhs and as does the sia hashrate and im confused as to why

if i mine eth alone hashrate is good, even when i try my own dec wallet it does the same thing?  am i missing something??
