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

[NoOneLt]

Guys, SIA or DCR in dual on green rigs? Or 50/50% what has more potential?

@claymore,

The miner really needs share difficulty output, I've made a costly miscalculation trying to solo mine ETC.

[cryptocointrading]

How can I tell claymore miner to ignore one gpu?
and alternativly to mine something else on one gpu.

so far I have been disabling the gpu in device manager when launching claymore but that is kinda silly

press 0-9 in claymore when it is active 0 shuts down mining on gpu 0   1 on gpu 1 and so on

Or if you have 6 gpus and you do not want to use one set -di 0,1,2,4,5 in bat file. In this case the program will not mine with fourth card

thanks for the replies but it is not working. The reason I want this, is due to a lack of ram on that one gpu
claymore still tries to make the DAG and there simply is no ram for it resulting in total failure


alternatively anyone have an idea to make the bat file disable one gpu for 1minute, that would make claymore fail to recognize it

anyone else had issues with lost connection on ethermine pool since updating to 9.8 or in general?

-di 01245 Do it like this Or delete a card in Device Manager

-di 01245 Do it like this

set -di 024
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

still tries to write the buffer for DAG to the gpu memory even when manually pressing 1 and telling me mining is disabled on that card

HI guys, which command must I use in Dual mining eth-dcr. to good hshrates?

[PB_SilentMiner]

HI guys, which command must I use in Dual mining eth-dcr. to good hshrates?

-dcri

more info is in the readme.txt file in the root folder of Claymore Miner

best to test with the + / - keys first to find your best rate.

  Hardware feature, accept it as an extra bonus.

Magic hardware!

Hey I'm getting an error message when trying to mine eth + sia, I think its still trying to mine decred even when I switch it from dcr to sia or sc. Please help me out

What are your config and batch files?

Good advise had been given.
What exactly is not working for you?
Post the config files and screenshot, please.

My guess: this way Claymore incourage you to mine in dual as he gets 2% fee in that case

that I now, no more command only dcri?

I've dual mined ETH with both Siacoin and Decred at several settings (from 20 to 80%), and at all settings my ETH takes a hit. In a 7 card GTX 1070 rig the ETH hashrate drops from ~220 MH/s to 210, 200, 180, even 155.

Anyone here able to mine ETH (with another coin) and NOT take a hit --- let alone have the rate increase?

THANKS

Not what I asked for but this put me on the right path, For anyone interested in temporarily disabling a gpu from cmd;

Download the microsoft devcon tool
Copy the Matching Device Id field in device manager properties of the gpu

Open a command-prompt in your devcon map
Run this command:
devcon findall * | find /i " said device ID " > "%temp%\devcon.txt"
Open the file %temp%\devcon.txt and find your device

Copy the ID (you only need up until the end of the SUBSYS field) and put it between ""
devcon disable " ID from devcon.txt "

I had to put the enable command in a separate bat file that launches near the end. with a timeout to re enable after it starts mining

final code:

TIMEOUT 2
cd\
cd Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Tools\x64
devcon disable "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1381&SUBSYS_8A9...."

cd\
cd Program Files\claymoreminer
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

start cmd /k Call reenable750.bat 4444

If anyone knows a more elegant way feel free to let me know

press 0-9 in claymore when it is active 0 shuts down mining on gpu 0   1 on gpu 1 and so on

In your start up bat put the -di command followed by the gpu's you want active. ie: -di 01234 would activate the first 5 GPU' for mining.

I have updated my win10 to creators update and now miner crashes.. had to roll back and I hope it will be fixed before the update is forced on us by MS

Just to verify, -cvddc is not supported for RX 5xx in Windows?

It works for me.
I usually put cvddc along with mvdcc. maybe that is the key...
