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

[johny13]

With version 9.7 I gained about 0.8MHz for each nvidia 1070 or 1080 ti card I have. Thing is that after some time or maybe hours (its random I think), the hashrate drops to 9.6 driver levels or slightly higher.
For example one of my rigs with version 9.6 was doing 232Mh/s eth and 2300Mh/s Sia. With 9.7 went up to 238Mh/s eth and 3000Mh/s Sia. It drops though to 231-234Mh/s eth and 2500-2200 Sia.
I noticed some drop to version 9.6 too, after hours of mining though, like from 232Mh/s for eth to 231Mh/s.
The drop rate with version 9.7 is more obvious now. I don't know if there is any solution for this.

Anyway, great job Claymore, thank you!

9.7 Results:
ASUS 1080ti - 2000mhz clock / 5200 memory

Eth: 30-31.5 mh/s
Dcr: 2250-2350 mh/s

Anyone else with a 1080ti have results to share?

Is this dual mining performance using 1080 ti? If so could you please tell me your watt usage from wall per gpu?

Guys, dumb question.....

I got 6 x gtx 1070, 4 cards are powered with 2 pci-e Cables that have 2x8 pin each, and 2 cards are powered using single Cables with 1x8pin.
I guess my question is, is there any Power difference/problems if you connect more than 1 Graphics card with 1 single pci-e Cable?

Hello, I have been trying to understand how to set -ethi to one of my Gpu's. I have a GTX 1080Ti as GPU 0 and a GTX 1070 as Gpu 1. I am dual mining ETH+DCR atm. The GTX 1070 is a dedicated mining card in my gaming pc.

My question would be is it possible for 3 different .bat files for various scenarios with -ethi on GPU 0?

Scenario 1: Mining + Youtube + Various web browsing. Would like for GPU 0 to work "lighter" under these conditions.

Scenario 2 : Straight mining with both cards

Scenario 3: Gaming + mining or would it be better to just turn off GPU 0 when gaming?

I understand how to change -dcri values from inside claymore with + -.

Is it possible to have GPU 0 doing light work on ETH + DCR while GPU 1 goes all out with different dcri settings between the 2 Gpu's?

Thanks for any reply. I have used the search but can't seem to find exactly what i'm looking for.

just add -ethi 0,8 for gaming example. 8 is default. I am assuming that your 1080 is GPU 0.
Try different configs for your scenario 1, i would start with -ethi 4,8 and work around that.

Where in the .bat file do you insert the -ethi command?

add it at the end of the last line

Hi, Claymore, any news about AMD dropping hashrate? annyyyy
thanks!

No news for now, but I expect it soon, just need to wait a bit more.

Problem with Claymore's V9,7
yea it increase my gtx 1060 speed from 18.3 Mh/s to 19 Mh/s but it also reduce my RX 580 card from 29 MH/s to 28.3 Mh/s.
something is wrong?

Hi Claymore,

There's could have introduced some problem since 9.6 for Linux version.
Both 9.6 and 9.7 will stuck in generating DAG and restart by timer loop sometimes.

9.5 has never got any problem on this.

They are GTX 1060 3GB, with some overclocking, like +590 (1180) on memory.
already set -lidbg 2

Been doing some research to find an answer to this but not much luck. I'm interested in mining XVG, looks like one of the algos it uses is BLake2 which is the same is Siacoin. So in theory, would if be possible to dual mine ETH and XVG with Claymore?

There is no rules : it's depends of your GPU BIOS.
For the GTX 1070, 1 PCIe 8 pins is enough and some cards have only one.
The manufacturer put a second PCIe 6 or 8 pins only for those who overclock a lot they 1070.

Are you sure it wasn't the DAG increase that reduced your 580? Have you reverted back to 9.6 to confirm?

Hey guys after running my miner for like 1-2 hours (sometimes less sometimes more) I get this problem :

WATCHDOG: GPU 5 hangs in OpenCL call , please restart the miner

It's always the GPU 5 . Im running 6 Rx 580 8GB MSI Gaming with this codes :

"-cclock 1150 -mclock 2150 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 850 -dcri 16 -wd 0"

Any fix for this ? At the begging this was running 24/7 for atleast 1 week without any problem.

Thanks !

It is only 1x8 pin on my cards.
What I meant by my question is that some of my pci-e Cables have 2x8 pins and I have used these Cables to connect 2 cards in 1 Cable.
So thats 2 cards powered up with 1 pci-e Cable. Could this be a problem? Should i only use 1 Cable for 1 card instead?

Try bumping up the vcore voltage for that card. For mine to be stable at 1150 I run 900mv.

You mean like 850,850,850,850,850,900 ?

Hey there, im quite new into mining- I recently started to mine on my gaming PC just for fun and then i decided to build a rig...
So i got all the parts and six rx 560 (as i could not get any better cards due to global shortage)... and that is when my nightmare started.

I run the rig on win10. system detects all the cards with no problem... well after few but i managed that
but once i start claymore, im done for.
If i got only 4 cards plugged in, everything works fine, but as soon as i plug in 5th or 5th and 6th card, claymore is suddenly able to detect just 2 of them.

I have spent better part of last two days trying to find some solution, but i got nothing. Tried countless drivers, restarted the rig a million times, even tried other miners despite the fact that i like claymore the most...
nothing

If anyone got any idea what could help, please let me know.

do you have virtual memory page file set to 16gb?

I take off the OC and everything was fine, that is my recommendation

Yes, without that, not ecen windows was able to detect cards properly... i suspect crossfire has something to do with this issue, as if i connect more cards, only those two in full slots are working

yes crossfire needs to be disabled double check that for all cards in radeon settings

Do you have some tip on how to do that? All guides i found were showing option to diable crossfire under Gaming > Global settings > Crossfire....
Yet i do not have this option at my radeon settings, i have tried multiple versions of drivers, currently i am running 17.4.4 but i have not seen that option in any version i tried.
Is there some other way to turn of crossfire for good?
