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

[iRrromka]

Earlier this week, I played with them again to squeeze in few more Mh. These are my settings:
-cclock 1140
-mclock 2075
-cvddc 875
-mvddc 875

They average a total of 177.5 now and cards hashes from 29.5 up to 30.0. But the best thing is they now only pull 1035w dual-mining with DCR.

Hi again! And how did you achieved such a great result??? My cards, but on UberMix3.2 are giving me just 172 on dual mining with dcri 25

I'm using custom straps 

Please share this one . 0.1 ETH from me in case if I'll get 176 on this settings!

Hello everyone. I've been reading this topic for the past few months. Very informative.
I have a problem with blockchain drivers that I couldn't find real solution for.
I've build few rigs and they been working fine with old drivers, but with blockchain driver they are not stable.
Particularly I am trying to fix 2 completely different setups RX 580 (Asus Dual and Sapphire nitro+).
If I lower the voltage even slightly they work but give an error within a day (opencl error).
As I said everything works fine with old drivers (except low hashrate).

[kkourmousis]

Hey mate,

Since you are reading for such a long time you must have read my post - chain, where (in my final post) I concluded that the blockchain drivers can cause power spikes that cause great instability.

Mr. Claymore said on this:

As I said, I am not happy to see that those problems are getting noticed by more users everyday. For myself, lowering the voltages seems to did the trick but I still experience some freezes now and then (I guess that I didn't lower them enough).
I am hoping that with so many cases around, Mr. Claymore can verify the existence of the problem.
What I would like to hear from Mr. Claymore is if there are any thoughts for a solution and what I would love to hear is an ETA if one exists.

1. I still cannot reproduce this issue, I described what tests I did: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.msg21966972#msg21966972
If you have ste-by-step guide how to reproduce this issue - let me know.
2. I'm not sure if it is possible to fix this issue at all, since all these issues are from buggy ADL.

So there you have it.

Reducing voltage indeed does the trick on system freezes.
I myself had to lower my clocks as well with the voltage, sacrificing some hashrate in order to have stability

I love learning all this stuff it’s giving me more knowledge 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👐🏼

It's giving me a headache ! Twiddle this up, tweak that down fiddle with this setting mangle that dangle and if you're lucky the risers won't oveheat and catch fire.

[Yohow]

480 or 580? 4GB or 8GB? I have a 6x RX 480 (8GB) rig and they hashes ~29.1 up to 29.6, ~176MH/s.

we are talking about Asus rx 580 dual 8gb OC with samsung memory.

Oh, okay many thanks for answer. Nice global hashrate

[blackhwk77]

I keep getting driver crashes that don't trigger the the -r flag in claymore using 10.0 and the AMD blockchain drivers.  I am working on figuring out the crashes but in the meantime is there something else I can do in Win 10 to reboot it maybe based on the log file?  I cheap losing 45 minutes for ethermine to notify me a rig is down.  Thanks

Does anyone know is today the day of Byzantium release on ethereum network? I read it should be released on October 9th. It should reduce blocktime from 30s to 14s (but also reduce reward from 5eth to 3eth per block). It would be increase 24% from current state...

23% to be exact.

It will be deployed when block reaches 4,370,000.

I see news about reducing the block time from 30s to 20s, will see. 14s it is better. But if 14s be true, 3gb 1060 may lose relevance before PoS.

For how long you think rx 470 4gb will be able to mine eth?

Not sure how the block time change will affect it but I believe the issue with size is actually down to the DAG size. From that the approximation is below

The 3GB limit will be hit around mid-April 2018
The 4GB limit will be hit around mid-September 2019

Correction - 3gb cards will be useless by November 2018, not April as per this reddit post.

4GB cards, probably Nov 2019 or later.

Do we need miner update for Byzantium?

Not that I know of - if you're mining with a pool.
Solo miners must update their software.

Werent there stories that 4gb cards will not be able to mine eth after march 2018?

There were stories no-one would be able to mine eth after march 2018! ;-)

How to make claymore work with multigpu and 4gb ram.  Linux works fine but not windows.
EDIT: worked with 16gb of virtual memory.

[drak24]

Having an issue with one of my 480 cards giving a low hashrate and I notice the memory/core being stuck at 300mHz. Also, when running claymore the computer gets sluggish, something that never used to happen. I've tried uninstalling/re-installing drivers, changing the page file to 16 or 32, plugging in/out monitors, disabling/enabling in device manager, none of which has worked. Some info on my setup:

2 ATI  Radeon RX 480 8GB with modded bios (samsung memory)
ASRock X370 Taichi (AM4) Motherboard
AMD Ryzen 7
Windows 10 64bit
32GB Ram

This used to work fine but I haven't ran claymore on it since version 9.7's release. Updated to 10, same results on both though. Any suggestions or ideas?

Hi

I have a problem with the Claymore boot, for some reason it only detects 3 gigabytes of the 4 that my gpu has

I made a clean installation of win10, using the latest version of Claymore with a rx 580 4GB and everything worked fine, but after some reboot the miner started to fail the boot and close the software.

Checking the logs only recognizes 3 GB of the 4 that should recognize.

Do you know what the problem could be?

Please excuse my bad english, I use a translator and I'm sure it will not be very suitable.

I've got problem with windows freezing when I'm closing claymore after GPU hangs in OpenCL.
I need to do hard reset most of the time.
Same problem with 3 rigs, all windows 10, all RX580.

I had -r 1 for reboot and now I'm using -r -1 -wd 0
still same problem.

is your win10 a 64 bit install? how much RAM you've got?

in general:
Do proper DDU with reboots (until you see all adapters as MS in device manager), remove all hidden monitors, install drivers & patch, set mem to stock and core to 1080MHz with volts at ~ 0.900ish = all should work. if it doesn't check your physical connections (raisers, raisers power, etc)

LOL. your gut feeling that these variables have something to do with memory is correct, but detection is not allocation, hence nothing to do with this case here

... also allowing some pointer to be in 32bits may cause the opposite effect.. in theory

[coinsaburou]

I tried the new version , speed not change.

[micax1]

Whoever is still using r9 280x... I need your advice badly!
I have weird 13-26 mh/s ETH 29-58 mh/s LBC fluctuation.
Does not depend on overcloack, power limit, page file > 32gb different PSUs voltage, temperature or whatever, tried all the shit possible!

It`s like >2 times difference! And usually it is  ~13...

Please give me some advice on that behavior(GPU2 & GPU3):

I tried the new version , speed not change.

By the release description i would guess the speed increase in the new versin is only for vega

I've got problem with windows freezing when I'm closing claymore after GPU hangs in OpenCL.
I need to do hard reset most of the time.
Same problem with 3 rigs, all windows 10, all RX580.

I had -r 1 for reboot and now I'm using -r -1 -wd 0
still same problem.

Have you also created the reboot.bat file ?

What new version? I see the september 02 version as the latest.
