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

[entity279]

Hi

I'm trying to mine eth+pasl

The problem is that I lower the mining of eth to 17 mh/s when it is normal that this about 30 or 31 mhs mine eth+lbc

I put my configuration to see if you can lend me a hand:

GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal miwallet.miworker -epsw x -dpool mine.pasl.fairpool.xyz:4009 -dwal <YOUR_PASL_ACCOUNT>+<WORKER_NAME> -dpsw x -tstop 85 -dcoin pasc


What will I be doing wrong?

regards

you need to manually tune (decrease) your -dcri parameter to restore ETH value. I'd start with '-dcri 1' and keep increasing until  the eth hashrate drops too much. Also, you can increase power limit which could help both ETH and PASC climb back up

You have discovered a new world, I have never used the -dcri xDD

Thank you : )

I'm having problems getting the miner to work (cannot allocate big buffer for DAG).

I've tried increasing page file to 17-25GB, using the env. variables and even using the benchmark 10 flag. Nothing works, while etherminer is working fine.

I have never been able to run this miner. Any suggestions?

I left it and let it restart itself 10-12 times and then it started to work.

I'm guessing this isn't normal?

I recently put a machine on ETC and updated the drivers to the blockchain drivers, so the machine mines faster now, but is more unstable, even when I shut off dual mining.  Can anyone share with me their run parameters for a Sapphire rx nitro (non-plus) 480 8g card?  I am running windows 10 with v 10.2 with the August 23rd blockchain drivers.  Would love a suggestion on how to get this to run stable and not have cards tripping out.  I have tried raising and lowering voltages, lowering ethi to 1, and turning off dual mode, but not really found a stable set up.  Appreciate any thoughts.
Thanks

I'm using this config.

Code:

-epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444
-ewal xxxxx
#-eworker
-epsw x
-esm 0

If you are on Linux OS, may I suggest you do a simple test: stop miner, edit config.txt by adding comment (add #) on those 2 lines (# -cclock 900 and # -mclock 1750). Then restart the miner. Did you see any difference in the GPU´s hashrate?

[Trimegistus]

I mine on Windows but the answer would be yes. Besides, I use other tools to make sure my undervolting/underclocking works

Yup. Only hints I have is (1 ) check your page file. You have a single card so you shouldn't need to much, just say 4 GB. (2) try a clean reinstalation of drivers  or a install a different version

Hey guys,

just a quick question: in general, what would you recommend for mining ethereum? Windows or Linux?
Any additional thoughts on this?

Thanks & Best,

Around that, yes. No noise, no heat, stable as hell, no complications whatsoever.

I have two reference RX 480 cards, and had a lower power bios installed. With the recent versions of windows 10, it's giving me issues (wouldn't even install the updates until I removed both cards, locks up when installing new drivers). I'd like to go back to the original bios without having to patch the files, but when I install the original reference bios, I still get the errors in Device Manager where Windows stopped the device because it reported problems unless I re-patch the driver. Does anyone know if there's something else I need to do to get these cards back to stock state without having to run modified drivers? Thanks.

[uDwcHYO]

a strange bug, when you connect to the RDP and run the miner, then the temperature of only one card is shown, but if the miner is launched from the autoload then when connected it shows the temperature of all the cards

I think the consensus would be to use Linux for mining. I would like to get to know Linux, I have tried, but for ease I just use Windows.
Linux has advantages, more stable and no annoying updates that trash your PC.

Key advantage of linux is ability to script everything... My rig is self-optimising, self-repairing, self-monitoring...
BUT the key problems is that undervolting is very complex (requires VBIOS hex edit). I work on patching amdgpu initsequence to allow UV. I've advanced but sorry, I've too much work on many subjects...

Hi,

I am new to this so pleas forgive me if something like this was already mentioned or resolved...

So I am mining ETH with two Redon 280x... All was going well, but the after resetting my PC I can not mine anymore, I get error (OpenCL error -4 (0) - cannot create DAG on GPU), however if I disconnect one card there are no errors... I have set virtual memory to 16 GB.

Can someone please help me, I can provide log files, I will run mine ETH for few days for you if you help me resolve this problem.

Can someone help me?
I've got 6 x rx 580 nitro+ but I can only run 4 when I put the 5th the program only recognize 4 and the rate of mining down.
With 4 I am mining 124.5 mh/s but when I put 5 (only works 4) and I am mining 82mh/s.

This is my SimpleMining config: Using claymore-eth-v10.2

-wd 1 -r 1 -epool stratum+tcp://eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal $wallet/$name -esm 0 -epsw x -allpools 1 -mport -3333 -asm 1

And this is my OC SM:
Core MHz: 1200
Memory MHz: 2250
Core Undervolting: 850
PowerStage: 3
Target cº: 64
Minimum Fan speed: 50

MotherBoard: Asus B250 Expert miminig
Power supply: HXCorsair 1200i

With 4 graphics 640w from the wall so I dont thing that the problem is the power supply. any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Did you check your BIOS settings on motherboard? (It can recognise max. 4 cards by default.)

Hi guys i have a strange problem with my rig 8 rx 580gb nitro+ is having low hashrate only 19mh/s without overclocking and all together only 145mh/s please help

[drevil6666]

Good afternoon. The problem is as follows. Version 10.1 and 10.2 did not work correctly with the new drivers win10-64bit-radeon-software-adrenalin-edition-17.12.1-dec11 At any time, the mining hangs, and does not even respond to the set restart parameter -r video rx 460
Also does not determine the temperature of the video card and fans
