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

[ntshb]

i am having quite a bit of issues with various versions of miners.

9.8, 10.0, 10.1

the thing is, I've used all 3 versions on 6 and 12 gpu miners.

the latest miner I've built sometimes freezes after the GPUs have been detected by the claymore miner. Sometimes the vers 9.8 loads immediately, sometimes it takes 5-10s but it seems the later versions 10 and 10.1 takes the longest. sometimes it simply freezes and the whole pc is unresponsive. other times when i try to reboot from windows, this very action causes the entire pc to freeze. closing the miner software doesn't work half the time.

the miner with 12 gpus has 8GB of ram while the 6 miners have 4GB. at first i thought it's due to the ram amount. but every 6 gpu miner with 4 gb of ram is more responsive than the latest miner i've built. the windows version is the same, motherboard's drivers and bios are the same too.

Often this means that I have to reboot manually and sometimes the pc remains in some limbo state where the fans spin but nothing is shown on the screen.

i've tried, reboot, clearing cmos, but this doesn't change a thing.

I doubt it's download errors because I've copied the setup files like amd drivers, gpu bios, gpuz, claymore and other necessary files from the same memory stick and copied to every new miner I've built.

I have 5x RX480 (Saphhire Nitro +) with Blockchain drivers and custom BIOS. I'm limited to 1000W power.  I'm currently mining ETH + LBRY but I have some wierd errors. GPU stops every few minutes and then starts again... I tryed lowering dcri but no help.
Now my settings are:

Clock: 1050
Voltage: 950
Memory: 2080
voltage: 950

Can you tell me what settings on GPU do you use for this combination?

I think others have replied to this but just to add my tuppence worth, I think you are sailing to close to the wind with a 1000 Watt PSU and dual mining. It can depend on the PSU you are using, I have a 1000 Watt EVGA Gold (6 card rig) and it worked OK at over 1000 Watts (long story, but put a quick stop to that as it is not recommended). If your rig works OK mining other coins then you are probably over stressing your PSU, remember the rig will take a little extra when it first starts up and if the GPU fans start to run at higher speeds. I found dual mining too stessful for my poor cards.
Get a power monitor and check exactly how much the rig takes from the wall.

I have 1 map 1060 c chips Samsung. overclocking made the memory to 1000 (max), core cklock +98+110 somewhere. meals are not dispersed, now someone is advised that a little added stopped like mistakes to be made.

the essence was that through the time I go on autobrennero shows 0 GPU.. and mining is done. before on the same version miner 9.3, everything is working fine etc sia - months did not touch. and most importantly, the temperature as before, until 66-68 basically max rises (when looking ahead) now. but it raises. as soon as decred passed began this situation:(
p.s then what value is best for overclocking my card?

Depends on the quality of the PSU and allegedly the ageing of the PSU also reduces its capacity (I think the pace of ageing depends on type of use also).  The rough estimate is about 10% a year so a rough calculation for 6 years of PSU use would be 1000 (0.9^6) = 1000(0.531441) = 531w

Ive wanted multiple PSU setups for ages and its more common now, probably an old deal on servers.   Ive never heard of a PSU tester though, somebody knows no doubt

Guys, what are you dual mining at the moment?

Hello,
I use the 470 (modded Bios - Timings / VCC Offset) with claymore 9.7 i get 27,5 MHS (100 Watt from the wall) before the DAG file Problem.
now i get with Claymore 10.1 only 24,5 MHS - with the lattest driver and with the driver von 23.8 -> what driver do you use for BIOS modded AMD GPUS (Driversetting) to get again the 27,5 MHS?

Greetings! My first post here and a noob

It would be nice if someone can take a quick look at my start.bat and advise if I should tweak some parameters.

There's just ONE line:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool stratum+tcp://eth.suprnova.cc:5005 -ewal username.worker1 -esm 0 -epsw x -allpools 1 -mport -3333 -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -dwal username.worker2 -dpsw x

And it seems everything works well below....
Just 1x GPU on my work PC, PowerColor Radeon rx580 (8GB).

I'm just starting to learn about mining with one card above.

Anything else I can do to improve or tweak it with the batch file parameters?
Does the port number looks correct? I read I need to use 5000 instead of 5005 somewhere.

Also, the default command line shown in suprnova.cc (below) is without the "stratrum" pre-fix, but I got lots of authorisation errors without it.

ethdcrminer64.exe -epool eth.suprnova.cc:5000 -ewal username.worker1 -epsw x -esm 3 -dpool dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -dwal username.worker2 -dpsw x -allpools 1

BTW, I've also tried to mod my GPU BIOS, copying memory lane 1750 to 2000 using Bios editor/ATIwinflash, that's all.
The hash rate still sucks at 20-24MHs, but maybe because I'm also using it as my work PC and connecting a monitor to the GPU for extra screens.

These are the few questions I have so far, thanks in advance for any tips!

Guys, what are you dual mining at the moment?

I have always been dual mining Decred
Not saying it"s the best choice, but it's my choice

[Claymore]

v10.2:

- fixed critical issues in remote management feature (attacker could crash miner even in read-only mode).
- now miner supports up to #299 epoch.
- in rare cases ADL API calls can hang, now watchdog checks it as well.
- improved "-minspeed" option, check readme for details.
- added "miner_getstat2" command to remote management, check "API.txt" for details.
- EthMan: added detailed stats mode in main window.
- a few minor improvements in both miner and EthMan.

[dwdhu]

Hi,
please submit your new hashrates to gpustats.com!
https://gpustats.com
Thank you!

[davescream]

Latest version is v10.2:
- added "miner_getstat2" command to remote management, check "API.txt" for details.

- ETH accepted shares for every GPU.
- ETH rejected shares for every GPU.
- ETH invalid shares for every GPU.
- DCR accepted shares for every GPU.
- DCR rejected shares for every GPU.
- DCR invalid shares for every GPU.

Claymore thank you so much for that!!! Good that you include this not only in json queries, but  http://ip:3333 web requests too.

I can download "Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred_Siacoin_Lbry_Pasca...v10.1 - Catalyst 15.12-17.x - CUDA 8.0_7.5_6.5.zip" from google drive without any issues, but my Windows Defender deletes "Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred_Siacoin_Lbry_Pasca...v10.2 - Catalyst 15.12-17.x - CUDA 8.0_7.5_6.5.zip" as soon as it is downloaded with "This file contained a virus and was deleted".

What is different in v10.2 that causes this issue?

It's normal, some AV's and windows defender included will detect this as virus, just look at your windows settings and firewall to exclude the claymore exe or the entire directory for exemptions.

Thanks for making great miners and good updates.  Another feature request, can you make ethman show total hashrate per algorithm?  Have some doing Eth, some doing XMR. Currently my hack is run a second instance of RM and only have XMR rigs on it. No rush, I know you are busy with multiple miners.

Hi,

Thank you!

Pretty cool site, nicely done.
I've uploaded my nvidia rig stats for Zcoin. Might add more results to enrich the database a little. You should create a separate thread to promote it, actually.

Hey, please help.. I have radeon 580 8gb.. i start to mine with 21,5 mh/s, after 3days 21mh/s, after 2-3 days 20,800 mh/s, now 20,260 mh/s ? Why  i lose Mh/s? Sorry for my bad English.

Driver Alone can't reached the 29-30mhs hashrate, you need to mod your GPU's in order to achieve this, a lot of guides out there, example below posted by Mattthev. you have to at least checked what type of memory you had and proper timings.
