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

[Emoclaw]

Do not use Crossfire for mining, disable it.
Set the core clock to 1200MHz or lower (just enough to not affect your hashrate by a significant amount), as well as the voltage, and the memory clock as high as you can without getting any GPU Memory errors in HWinfo.
Look into BIOS modding as well, only through that will you have a shot at getting 30MH/s.

I did some bios modding and tuning is msiAB last day. HWinfo was running and showed 0 errors, but I saw glitches on the screen, and after a few mins my system froze. Tried multiple times with multiple variations but no errors in HWinfo, just glitches and crashes.
I did find the almost optimal settings, but HWinfo did not help me.
I think I missed something. Can you help me pls?

What exactly did you tune? What's your memory vendor?
Try copying the 1750MHz strap to 2000MHz if you have Micron or Samsung.

I have an asus rx 470 strix 8g oc micron memory card. BIOS (modded marked with red):
In afterburner I set -60 mV, +50% power, 1110 core clock, 2000 mem clock.
I did look good, and mining  ETH only it worked at least 20 mins, but dual ETH+DCR glitches came, than crash, but HWinfo showed nothing.

The problem with Strix is that they lack memory cooling, so far from what I've seen memory errors should appear, but I guess it's not always the case?
Can you try finding and installing something like these: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835118220 which are VGA RAM heatsinks? (if there's enough clearance)
Otherwise, try putting some normal thermal pads, may not do as good a job but will certainly help.

sorry if this has been answered, but i was wondering since the 580s are way expensive or non existent if the 1060's are the way to go and what is the hashing difference between the 2? wondering if its better to get the 1070s, etc, whats the best way to go? cost wise etc?

On my 1060 I can get 23.7 Mhs with 74W from wall. Second one 23 Mhs at 64W. Ratio W/Mhs is better then on any RX.

Are you sure of it?
I see on YouTube a rig of 6x 580 drawing 800w as well

Am I sure?? I just build my 1060 rig this week. Sure I am sure
6 x 580 rig at 800W means 125W per card. I am talking about 60 to 74W per my card. Its about 40-50% less power usage for about just 20% smaller hashrate. Just be smart...

Nice results. Do you mind sharing your TDP/core/mem settings? (please give absolute values for core and mem
Did you manually lower voltage below default curve?

I still would choose 20% higher hashrate, power costs are negligible today.

No problem. Core +100, mem +950, power 60%. This Evga card can do more, but this is my sweet spot. Downside is, it can do only 100 Mhs on Sia so it's not worth to dual mine with it.

Good evening, i will inform you that version v9.5 does not connet to the ETHERMINE pool.

i know right bro... i posted that settings some day ago

my 2 rig are 6x zotac mini 3gb 1060 145 core 60% tdp and 950 memory getting 23.5 but they get about 100w from the wall

have you tried mining dual setting -dcri 50? i am getting very well hashrate

-dcri 50 gives me 333 Mhs on Sia, but just 20.3 ETH and I don't wanna loose so much on ETH.
What is your score?

Thanks for the help.. would it be better to get the 6gb or does the 3gb do it just fine?

I asked for absolute values, but I can see that the main difference is ram.
I run mine at +500 which operates at 2150. (Never understood why it doesnt run at 2250 though...)

Not sure how safe is such high oc on the ram when you run a card 24h.

I don't understand how is the ram speed calculated. AMD has it x4 I think, Nvidia I have no idea. Afterburner says: core 2025, mem 4752.

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.

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.

So I redid the thermal paste on my 7970 and temps dropped >20C! Went from 90C at 100% fanspeed to 69C at 67% fanspeed dual mining ETH+SC.

The previous owner slathered on way too much paste and didnt tighten the cooler down enough either. Runs like a dream now.

still no success, but thx

[preda]

sorry if this has been answered, but i was wondering since the 580s are way expensive or non existent if the 1060's are the way to go and what is the hashing difference between the 2? wondering if its better to get the 1070s, etc, whats the best way to go? cost wise etc?

On my 1060 I can get 23.7 Mhs with 74W from wall. Second one 23 Mhs at 64W. Ratio W/Mhs is better then on any RX.

Are you sure of it?
I see on YouTube a rig of 6x 580 drawing 800w as well

Am I sure?? I just build my 1060 rig this week. Sure I am sure
6 x 580 rig at 800W means 125W per card. I am talking about 60 to 74W per my card. Its about 40-50% less power usage for about just 20% smaller hashrate. Just be smart...

Nice results. Do you mind sharing your TDP/core/mem settings? (please give absolute values for core and mem
Did you manually lower voltage below default curve?

I still would choose 20% higher hashrate, power costs are negligible today.

No problem. Core +100, mem +950, power 60%. This Evga card can do more, but this is my sweet spot. Downside is, it can do only 100 Mhs on Sia so it's not worth to dual mine with it.

i know right bro... i posted that settings some day ago

my 2 rig are 6x zotac mini 3gb 1060 145 core 60% tdp and 950 memory getting 23.5 but they get about 100w from the wall

have you tried mining dual setting -dcri 50? i am getting very well hashrate

-dcri 50 gives me 333 Mhs on Sia, but just 20.3 ETH and I don't wanna loose so much on ETH.
What is your score?

-dcri 50 gives me 18 etc and 370 sia ahhaahah strange thing

Hello everybody.  I am new to the site and mining in general.  I have set up a 6 gpu mining rig using GTX 1060s and I am happy with the returns so far.  I was thinking about building a second rig and a friend of mine asked me a great question that I am unable to answer.

Is it possible to run claymore eth-only miner but have it deposit to two different ether wallets?  I am not sure if there is a way to code it so it will have 'x%' go to this wallet and 'z%' go to that wallet.

More logical, but not so fun options...is to just run 2 instances of the the miner program or i will just send him a percentage of the profits but I like the idea of running 1 program with the % defined in some way so we don't have to bother with it.

He is asking because I was going to build the new rig but I can only put 4 gpus in it right now.  He is wants to buy the other 2 gpus and offer me a little kickback to running them on my rig.

I know there are 'easier' ways to do it, but it would be very interesting if it could be coded into the single program.

I am sorry if this is posted in the wrong topic.

Any suggestion on the coding side?

i am trying 9.5 claymore

6x 1060 3gb mining constantly 23.3 mh
6x 1060 3gb mining gpu0 20mh others 23.3 why the gpu0 lose hashrate?

My pc keeps freezing with everyminer i use not just claymore's. I get this error in claymore
NVML : cannot get current temperature , error 999
NVML : cannot get fan speed, error 999 (something about an internal driver error)
If 1 gpu is in the rig it runs fine and hashes fine.

i7 5920k
MSI x99a gaming 7 mobo
20gb ram
MSI GTX 1070 8G
MSI GTX 1070 x 8g
SSD

Claymore 9.4
driver version i tried 368.81 and it started hashing at like 2mh/s then i did a windows update and it updated nvidia driver and crashed again.
did the 16mb virtual memory
Current nvidia driver crash too
stop the command prompt from quick fixing or something like that
changed the mobo pcie to gen 1

The cards are in the 1 and 3rd pcie slots

I reinstalled windows twice trying to get the freezing to stop. Have been messing with this for countless hrs If anyone could help that would be nice.

i would start checking your PCI-e power connections at both the psu and gpu.  these symptoms normally happen when a connector gets fried for me.    i've tried changing motherboards, changing cards, reloading the OS... only to slap myself because it ends up being the connector for the psu.
