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

[chiefoforc]

@Claymore How to fix this issue ?
got incorrect temperature 511, ignore
It has resurfaced and my miner always hangs as soon as the mining starts and have to do manual reboot

It's hardware-related issue, drivers report wrong temperature, usually it means that this GPU is not stable. Check its riser, OC, PSU.

When I moved the GPU to different PC it doesn't show that issue anymore. I have rolled back to v9.8. And this GPU has been mining stable for almost 2 years now. I have tried different risers (almost 20 different risers).

I got 511 today, v9.8.
My problem is my new PSU, 1250w PSU only support 3gpu stable. 6gpu got 511message in 5min. I changed PSU,problem sloved.  Hope that helpful.

Can someone help me with the command line for dwarfpool.
I am mining only eth and I'm located in EU.
Should i write this: EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal (my ETH wallet) -epsw x -allcoins -1
Is this correct?

Update:

Just did a test mine on Dwarfpool with the setting given below [using Claymore 9.8] and it works OK. I used the example given in the readme file.

Code:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_MAX_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_MAX_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0xd7236c7bB066725C33DAE910A947aE40D565B66E -epsw x -allcoins 1

Vulnerability discovered in Claymore miner versions earlier than 10.2, opening Claymore up to a remote attack hack. I don't know if this has been confirmed or not but there is a notice of it here (see post #4605) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=472510.4600

I have a 7 GPU rig made up of (5) GTX 1060's and (2) RX470's.  My RX470's are giving me very low hashrates.  They fluctuate between 12 mh/s and 18 mh/s.  Here is my configuration.  Any thoughts?

Did you define manually the Ethereum and Siacoin mining intensity?
GTX1060 can withstand -dcri (Siacoin) up to 40-50 without significant drop in hashrate, while RX470 start to hash ETH slower beginning with -dcri 20-25. Maybe your miner has set automatically a 40-45 intensity, that keeps down ETH hashrate on RX470.
I suggest you to run 2 Claymore instances: one for GTX1060, another for RX470 and adjust Siacoin intensity. Define -di (GPU index) for each instance.

You are missing "-epsw x"
Nanopool has a config generator for the Claymore miner, just click on "Quick Start" and it will create one for you. This is what I get and it works, just put in your details into the grenerator.

Code:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal 0xd7236c7bB066725C33DAE910A947aE40D565B66E.UserName/Email@Email.com -epsw x -mode 1

EDIT
Found in nanopool site

However in nanoool site the  example is:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

Hi, Is there something wrong with the late teamviewer versions alongside the most recent windows 10 version? Claymore becomes stuck at "start building OpenCL program for GPU 0..."  if I am logged on with teamviewer. If I am not logged on it starts mining as normal. Once I logon GPU 0 Hangs in open cl and miner continue with the rest of the cards. Thats ofcourse because I have  -wd 0 and -r -1. Otherwise everything works very well until you connect with teamviewer. Is there any setting to be changed?

bump, this is really bugging me on 2 different miners with latest version of windows (1709 fall 2017 update) I am still uncertain if its windows, teamviewer or claymore miner at fault.

Is is just me or is Clamore's Ethereum miner been crashing more than usual lately? I suspect is has something to do with the larger DAG files needed, as I can run the same program on another coin such as Expanse and get several days of up-time, but while mining Ethereum I am lucky to get 48 hours before the program hangs trying to restart itself.

I already tried lowering my clocks, increasing voltage, using -ethi 5 and 6 but it doesn't seem to help. My temperatures are quite cool now with winter approaching and all my PSUs are either Evga or Corsair running at only 80% efficiency, so I don't think it is any of those things.

Your Claymore version?

At the moment the size of the DAG file for a 127 epoch EXP is 1.99 GB. Which is very small and potica with the original ETH DAG file are excluded.

why i always encounter this error on ver 10.2, never on previous versions, both of my 2 rigs encounter this, plz help,thanks

[Dowper]

Have seen some people mention -eqlim 288 or something like that.. what does that do?

Wow, this increased my 270X GPUs to 19MH, and RX470s and RX570s with 0.2MH.

I think there might be something wrong with 10.2.  I have 2 identical rigs.  One running 9.8 and super stable.  The other rig is on 10.2 and windows gets really sluggish after 3hrs of mining. I couldn't even move any windows around and afterburner becomes unresponsive.  I am going to switch my 10.2 over to 9.8 and see if that will make a difference.

have you tried the 10.1?

no.. why?  are you having similar issue? is 10.2 the culprit? this is the only difference in my 2 rigs.  Both have the exact same hardware

my problem with 10.2 is the "Temperature control thread hangs, need to restart the miner!" error, both on my 2 rigs, never encounter this error on previous versions...

don't fix what's not broken right?  I mean.. is there really any performance increase from say 9.8 to 10.2?  not that i could tell in terms of hash rates.

Hi everyone - first time posting to the forum but been reading the threads for quite a number of months.  I'm hoping someone can help me out.

I have a 7 GPU rig made up of (5) GTX 1060's and (2) RX470's.  My RX470's are giving me very low hashrates.  They fluctuate between 12 mh/s and 18 mh/s.  Here is my configuration.  Any thoughts?


AMD RX470 Strix Gaming 4GB - Hynix Chips

Windows 10 1709 all updates applied
swap file 20GB
Dual Miner 10.2 ETH+SIA
AMD 17.11.4 drivers +DAG Patch (Previously had blockchain, no change in speed)
Compute mode on
MSI Afterburner V4.4

Any thoughts on what I can change to get more consistent and higher rates? 

Note: My 1060 are consistent at 23 mh/s

you need to mod your GPU Bios in order to achieve better hashrate for AMD RX470, see threads below

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1954245.0

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1882656.new#new

it should reach at least 27-29mh/s
