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

[Zorr0]

Hello everyone.
Just wanted to ask for summary on best software to run with RX cards.
I would say:
claymore miner
GPUz to get info on gpus
HWinfo64 to check on memory errors
setting up clocks and voltage works best in claymore or overdriventool
BIOS mod: atiflash 277 and Plarisbioseditor(not sure which version is better)
As far as fan controls I am no sure. Claymore doesn't seem to set the fanspeed reliably, sometimes fans just stop completely on good cards, which is undesirable.

Anything else anyone might add?

hey guys. what sort of decent hashrate should i be expecting from an Asus dual 1070 card ? i am getting an average ETH @ 26.200Mh/s and DRC @ 435MH/s . Does this sound right ?

I'm getting ETH 30 and SIA 350 with that exact card. Memclock +530.

Still no AMD compute driver for windows 8.1? Dag is killing me ;(

Hi all, I have a little problem, when I close and restart the claymore miner, only first GPU fan % is shown in the miner and in the monitoring tool.
I need to restart the computer to resolve that .. is there any workaround ?
Thank you !

hi guys,

I just built a new rig, Fatal1ty H270 Performance with 4GB ram, I3 cpu and 6 x asus radeon rx 570 expedition oc

When I installed 2 cards first on their own in PCIe slots, then windows 10 etc , blockchain drivers plsu patchers I would get solid 27MH/s (BIOS moded on all cards).

then, I moved the mobo to open case and plugged all six GPUs in using PCIe risers, installed drivers etc, then used the patcher, I can see in GPUz all cards have correct drivers etc.

I run Claymore , it detects 6 cards, stars mining and all I get is 21mh/s

any idea what am I doing wrong please?

I have tried mining with Claymore miner v10.2 but have being getting high stale shares of 10 to 12%.
When I was using v9.8, my stale shares are only about 4%.
Any advice?

Thanks

hmm, interesting indeed.
Is yours OC edition and what OS are you on ?

i am on Win10, using GPU Tweak tool from asus, which doesnt let me do any more than +480 on the memclock, making it @ 8488Mhz. With mem on max i can now get 27.400mhs ETH / 456mhs DCR

Hi guys who tried new drivers 17.12.1 (adrenaline), Claymore 10.2 can not control frequencies and fans

Tried them last night but immediately rolled back to previous driver. Looks like none of the config parameters are being passed through to cards. AMD have implemented the ability to save profiles in Wattman so I guess maybe something about that has broken that functionality in Claymore?? Also 17.12.1 reoriented all my cards, not a huge deal but still a pain in the butt with my setup.

In case you have AMD gpus (which is likely the case) you should not have been using claymore freq/volts config from claymore.
do the overdriven tool instead. and the only thing driver gui is needed is for setting "compute" mode for each card.
btw did they by any chance change their "settings" app and maybe like added a single option "set compute mode to all gpus" ? - that would be a a good reason for me to switch from 17.11.1?

if you are using blockchain beta driver it will do better 22-24, or you can use drivers from 17.10.2 (you'll need to set "compute" mode for each card) 22-24MH and if you mod you'll get 28MH approx.

expedition is somehow better then Strix, yet its the slowest 570 I've got, here is a dozen on h110 btc+:

Are the new drivers compatible with Afterburner?

Sorry for the offtopic, but what's your statistics on Asus GPUs? I have heard nasty opinions on them - some people report fault rates up to 7% on Asus models and I've met more complaints over forums vs other manufacturers.
Just in case, no intention to FUD against Asus, been using Asus MBs for over 10 years.

Hi guys.
i'm mining Ethereum on Nanoppol.
What mean this countdown (on my dash on nanopool)?? : Next DAG Epoch 1 : 12 : 48 : 34

[glester]

Next DAG change, difficulty adjustment.

Any advice?

Thanks

Not sure but I have hardly any stale share with v10, installed 10.2 today, so fare no stale there too.

[Rickirs]

Received this error today on v10.2:

Code:

GPU 0 mining was stopped because -tstop temperature reached.

Its ASUS RX 580 8G, however if I check temperature, its just 53C, even fan is not spinning as aroudn 55C, this its fan stops automatically.

Code:

====================    ROCm System Management Interface    ====================
=====================================================================
  0   67df   53.0c    58.14W   600Mhz   2000Mhz  0%   auto      0%       N/A
======================================================================
====================           End of ROCm SMI Log          ====================

But if I use Claymore v10, then it works .

What is your rig setup?
I am using Asus Maximus Hero8 with i3-6100. Corsair LPX 2x8GB RAM, 128GB M.2. ColorPower 2xRX580, 2xRX580 MSI Gaming X, 2xAsus Strix R390 OC Gaming.

I also realized that I have lower than 3% stale shares if I run 4xGPU but higher than 5% stale shares on 6xGPU on v9.8
What can be the problem? How can I reduce stale shares?

[Cryptographertm]

why doesnt nofee work anymore

I was trying to test some setting and every time i opened the thing it started mining for the dev. like 5 times in a row

i added nofee restarted came back and its mining for the dev again..

Hey Guys


I have a little problem...

After some tinkering i was able to bring my RX580 8GB cards to stable 29-30Mh/s. I have 5 of those cards and 1 of the 4GB version (which is also pretty good i have to admit).

But now to my problem, if i start the cards all individually they all bring the same performance, maybe +- 0,1 Mh/s, but when i start all of them together two of my cards need longer for the DAG creation 7200ms instead of the other 4900-5500ms .

And they only hash at around 20-22Mh/s.... I have no idea what i can do to bring some up with their buddies and like written further up.... on their own they are entirely capable of going 29-30 ....

Does anybody has any idea what i can do to improve my little problem ?



Sincerely

Sack

However, my Asus 580s are not yet modded or overlocked,they are hashing at 22Mhz atm but will be modding soon.

I have noticed same but only difference is 0.5 to 0.8 Mhz in my case if I run multiple cards, even have to lower clock a little to keep things stable, though I have 1060 and RX580s mix on same rig. But with 8-9 Mhz difference, that is odd. Have considered your PSU , is it not able to distribute power or its underpowered somehow for all running at same time ?

BTW, I don't think DAG creation time has any issue, with me, they usually takes around ~7000-8000 for each , yet all working fine.
