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

[leonix007]

Hi Guys and Gals,

A quick question. how can you see the wallet, -ewal and/or -dwal values in runtime?

"s" and other options at runtime do not give this info
also the Miner Manager does not show this...

Just to confirm your not giving it so someone else!!! 

Thanks

You can see it only at the startup miner or at the log files, you will notice this at the pool when you are giving your hashrate to someone else.

I'll check it out, thanks for the update.

Anyone know why I need to sometime launch Claymore's miner twice on startup to get my full hashrate?

For example, after a rig reboots, i launch the miner and the first GPU reports 30 Mh/s, and the rest report maybe 26 Mh/s. But if I close the miner and restart the program, on the second try they are all reporting correctly at 30 Mh/s.

Would the -gser setting help with this?

I have the same issue. Anybody know how to fix it?

If that’s your only issue it could be fixed by using -minspeed argument.

-logsmaxsize

We will see -logmaxdate and -logmaxnumber?

Hello All,

Excuse my ignorance if someone already asked this I just did not had the time to go over all the pages of this thread.  Few days ago a video was published in youtube showing that a single GTX 1070 is doing 58MH/s, has someone tested it or it is a scam?

Link to the video:

I guess Claymore will be able to say if that is possible at all, the chaps who made the video are stating that they have modified the drivers to achieve that speed.

Thank you!

Thanks again for this claymore, I particularly like the maximum log size option that you have included.

Are blockchain drivers reporting correct hash rates now?

Nobody else has ever achieved much hashrate increase, let alone doubling, with any driver 'modifications'. And they want $200 for it…  please pay for it, try it out, then report back here

If they succeed then our miner will be mining for other ethereum address...

Don't allow remote management. Or only allow read-only. Lock down your network and/or use a VPN for remote admin.

Hi,

Just tried the driver and it doesn't do particular thing than the original NVIDIA one... I thing it is a scam.

Has anyone seen improvements in shares or hashrate vs  10.0?

Personally i don't see any change on my 1070.
The plus is that the dag change is included in the devfee which is no small thing

Greetings,

I am having trouble with one card in a rig with 6 cards.  Two R9 280 and four Gigabyte GTX 1060 3GB Mini cards.  Issue is with one of the 1060's.  Just added these 1060's yesterday, brand new.

The three cards are mining fine with overclocks at around 19.5mh/s.  The fourth card fails during mining.  I have it at stock settings and it will mine at 17.5mh/s.  After about 5 minutes, it will drop to 1.7mh/s.  At this point the system will become unresponsive and MSI afterburner will freeze.  If I wait, the card will eventually go back to 17.5mh/s and then again drop to 1.7mh/s

If I remove the problem card from the startup.bat, the rig is fine.

I have tried replacing the riser and cable, no difference.

Any suggestions?  Is this card shot?

Code:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-us-east1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal XXX -epsw X -mode 1 -ftime 10 -ethi 8,8,8,8,8,8 -dcri 30,30,20,20,20,20 -allpools 1 -gser 2 -di 036897

Problem card is #7

Underclocking -400/-500 didn't help either.

EDIT: Narrowed it down that the issue was happening with any card plugged into a certain PCIE slot on the motherboard.  Moved the connections to not use that PCIE slot and everything seems to be working now.  Using the ASRock H110 Pro BTC+ motherboard and the problem slot was the second one from the top labelled PCIE1.

Hello, can someone tell me why option -r 1 stopped working in new versions? If one card stop working rig is not rebooting.

Hello, can someone tell me why option -r 1 stopped working in new versions? If one card stop working rig it`s not rebooting.

confirm.
version 10.1
option: -r 1
reboot.bat contains shutdown /r /t 0 /f

GPU5 crashed to 0.00000mh

ETHMan show no answer from rig, but miner continue to mine (with 4 of 5 gpus) and no reboot.bat call.

I can send .log in PM

Claymore please add pergpu_shares  and pergpu_rejected to JSON stats

No, I hope you didn't spend any money on this! This is a well know scam. Just look at my comment at all of his other videos.

"SCAM alert: Please read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2127840.0 before you transfer your money to a criminal."

Is there some way to report this to youtube? This guy needs to be taken offline.

As of 10.1, looks like Claymore is still unfunctional for nVidia Volta...

1. Yes you can PM the complete log file. In my tests it works fine.
2. Ok I will do it in next update.

I did not read any report about latest Linux Amdgpu-pro v17.40 beta drivers
I've a rig with RX480/580, ubuntu 16.04.3 latest update/upgrade, claymore v10.1.
since long I've installed ROCm drivers, with the apt-get configured to update ROCm components. I installed also amdgpu-pro v17.30, and configured 2MB page as they explain, in grub options.
see https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/6wsf7o/new_amd_blockchain_optimized_drivers_availible/
It solved the DAG problem.

I've installed today the amdgpu v17.40
http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-Pro-Beta-Mining-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx

I did not disable/remove ROCm, so maybe there is a conflict
I've noticed those errors:

Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.23-0ubuntu9) ...
Setting up amdgpu-pro-core (17.40-483984) ...

This is warning treated as error during the compilation of a kernel component... anyway it works normally.
it is not faster. Maybe because the module is not integrated?

some say it is faster for Vega, but as I understand the comments , it is just as fast as RX480 (30MH/s), while incredibly slow before... maybe I misunderstood

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amdgpu-1740-rocm&num=1

EDIT: I've rested removing ROCm, then installing amdgpu-pro v17.40 and the compilation error persist. anyway the rocm kernel is used... I don't understand the problem, but it seems benign.


hope this helps...
If I did something wrong, tell me.

Whats with the average hashrate dropping slowly?

I've read a few posts saying its something to do with the pool, but not sure.

Any ideas?

both of my rigs has been running solid, without any issues, one is running Claymore 9.8, August Blockchain drivers, custom BIOS. (4xSapphire RX470 Nitro+ 8GB Samsung & 3xSapphire RX470 Nitro 8GB Micron) 198.45MH, the other is currently running Claymore 10, August Blockchain drivers & custom bios (2xSapphire RX480 Nitro+ 8GB Samsung) 58.7MH. Total - 256.4MH.


Before the Byzantium update, my average hashrate was withing 3-4MH of my reported rate. But as of late its nearer 25-28MH difference.

Any ideas?
