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

[joboy84]

Hi, I'll need some help/confirmations with the failovers.

Let's say I have these lines in start.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 eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal ETH_WALLET.WORKER_NAME -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://lbry.suprnova.cc:6256 -dwal Redhex.my -dpsw x -dcoin lbc -ftime 10 -tstop 85 -tt 65 -fanmin 60 -fanmax 100 -cclock 1130 -mclock 2150 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 850

Those lines in epool.txt :

POOL: eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008, WALLET: 0xD69af2A796A737A103F12d2f0BCC563a13900E6F/YourWorker, PSW: x, ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0
POOL: us2.ethermine.org:4444, WALLET: 0xD69af2A796A737A103F12d2f2f0BCC563a13900E6F YourWorker, PSW: x, ESM: 1, ALLPOOLS: 0

Those lines in dpool.txt :

POOL: stratum+tcp://lbc-eu.coinmine.pl:8787, -u Weblogin.Worker, -p x
POOL: stratum+tcp://lbc-us.coinmine.pl:8787, -u Weblogin.Worker, -p x

So if I understand correctly, by launching the file start.bat, the rig will connect to the pools present in this file.

If in the file start.bat the pool corresponding to -epool has 3 connection failures, the script will use epool.txt file and connect to the first pool of this file.

It will be the same if the pool corresponding to -dpool has 3 connection failures, the script will use the dpool.txt file.

After 30 minutes of mining on the pools present in epool.txt and dpool.txt files, the script will try again to connect to the pool present in start.bat.

However, if the script goes to epool.txt or dpool.txt, are the optional values still used? (-tstop 85 -tt 65 -fanmin 60 -fanmax 100 -cclock 1130 -mclock 2150 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 850)

What are the lines at the beginning of the start.bat file for (starting with setx GPU_)? Is there an impact if we don't put them on?

Thank you for your time and support.

Why Claymore restarts once a week? Always when it reaches about 135 hours running (with no issues) it restarts, no one GPU fails. I don't understand... Claymore is configured for do this once a week? Please tell me. Many thanks

EDIT: ... Noticed from Claymores address that large source of income on Nicehash comes from Cryptonight... How does that work? Alternative software?

anyone have same problem?
i found, sorry}

Can you explain what you found? I have MultipoolMinerV2.5.2 and Windows is saying it found Trojan:Win32/Skeeyah.A!rfn in EthDcrMiner64.exe   is the trojan there, or not? I suspect maybe the MultipoolMiner authors did it?

CPU mining code will often trip a false-positive virus warning due to botnets exploitation of said code.

You probably ran out of physical or virtual memory. I've had claymore run for at least 2 weeks before and only stopped it manually to do an update.

Hello,
I'm sorry n00b here...

when i'm using single mining I got 27mhs on my rx470, but on dual mining eth dcr I got only 19mhs.
I notice it from GPU Z , when i'm mining single eth gpu core is on 1050mhz ( which i'm downclock it into ). but on ETH+DCR it only run 700mhz....

I got 2 cards behavior like that...  the other 5 is fine...

2 cards who got odd behavior is biostar and sapphire.
my downclock is

1050mhz, 2000mhz @ 860mv

I'm using claymore 10 and 9.8 on nicehash

I have 16GB of Virtual memory and 8GB RAM. I should increase it to 32GB Virtual memory and more RAM?

You should check your logs or keep an eye on it when it gets to that point again to see if that was the problem first.

Not able to Play with core voltage yet.

Using MSI AMD Rx580, Latest drivers for AMD , AB 4.4.0 Beta 16

Please guide me how to go ahead and resolve it for undervolt earlier version was at 90W per GPU only power now it jumped to 130-140W

Thanks in advance

Still no solution please help

Thanks for that hadn't seen that thread. I notice the instructions have nothing on Nicehash though what should be the address? Is it worth it on RX480s? If not what do you think is best place for me to allocate their power now? Currently have 2 rigs with 6 RX 480 Saph N+. One is mining on nicehash for Eth and Dcr the other is mining on nanopool for ETH/Sia.

Many thanks for input trying to get most efficient cash out

Which is the last driver for AMD and which is the best drier for AMD.

90watt?

Are you mining Solo ETH or something else?

You should measure your consumption from the wall (with wall meter devices) and not from softwares. 90watts on the RX 580 is just too low to be true

Anyway, try to overclock and undervolt using the Claymore miner itself. You can add parameters to your bat file to do that. Read the "readme.txt" for more info

2nd question. This is about the dual mining fee. My understanding is that the 2% fee while dual mining is for both Eth and Decred in my situation. That would mean that I am getting 98% of my Eth and 98% of my Decred profits. If that is the case it does not really seem worthwhile to lose an extra 1% of Eth profits to dual mine. Please don't think I am complaining about the fee. Claymore program is fabulous and he can charge whatever he wants. Just want to make sure that it makes sense financially. I'm almost 100 sure that Sia, Pasc and Lbry are not profitable to dual mine right now. Decred seems the most profitable. Just wondering what you guys are all doing? Worth it to dual mine right now?

AFAIK 2% Claymore dev-fee is only on ETH. But on top of it there is pool fee for ETH and pool fee for DCR.
I don't think that 1-2% would change anything about "profitability" of coin mining. Patience in lowering core clocks and voltages could gain even more "profitability" percents than fees.

[Doni Ariyanto]

Dear mr/mrs. how much must do on decred one 280x ?, i got 300-350 mh/s ?

PS. Never mine this shit decred, normal speed for one 280x is 1200 , one my friend told me (hero member, close to legendary, real my friend). Of course, this shit have fee.

Thank you

Quick question on this... I've seen plenty about undervolting with -ccddv but not much seems to be mentioned about -mddv... Should I also be undervolting there? Using RX480 4GB with -ccddv 980 at the moment running stable

[z0n0]

Guys, since mining rewards are slowly dropping, have you noticed also a GPU price drop in your countries?

Mr. Wolf explained many pages ago that -mcddv will not change the actual memory voltage but something else (I don't remember what). In any case, I myself keep those 2 at the same values.

It all comes down to your power consumption target. If power cost is low for you, then leave that to 980 where you are stable and try to get your clocks as high as you can.

If power cost is an issue, you may want to try setting your voltages to 850-900 and try to find stable clocks in that area.

Does it restart on a Tuesday ?
This is when Windows does its update, so it could be the Windows update that is causing the restart.
If it is Wndows update causing the restart then you need to disable it.

hello guys, im using windows 10 with claymore dual mining eth+lbc. i have no problem with it, getting eth 30mhs + lbc 85mhs.
problem is in ETHOS. mining only eth im getting same hashrate 30mhs for card, but dual mining hash rate drops significantly, 23+42. -dcri 30 value do nothing and +- doesnt work in terminal. settings things in claymore.stub.conf. i tried many values still without success, so remain them as default just workers/wallets/pass/pools and still no luck. any advise please?
