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

[Razvan84]

Noob question here guys so thank you to whoever answers this seemingly simple question for me. I have ran the single Claymore ETH miner up until now. I see the benefits of running the dual miner and have this version running ETH and DCR. I've lost about 1% efficiency on my ETH but am getting the benefits of the DCR mining.

My question, with ETH I can use ethermine.org to track my ETH shares. How do I track my DCR shares though? I assume DCR is a ERC20 coin and attaches directly to my ETH wallet but like I said I am new to this. Any help and all shit talk is appreciated.

You can track DCR shares on https://dcr.suprnova.cc/index.php?page=gettingstarted

If you are dualmining ETH and DEC you must have a username and password to connect.

There you will see like in ethermine.org stats

DCR has nothing to do with ETH. It's a separate coin on a different blockchain. Since DCR uses a different mining algorithm which is core dependent rather than memory dependent like ETH, Claymore's dual miner is able to utilize the unused GPU core cycles from mining ETH and use them to mine a secondary coin like DCR at the same time.

Since ASIC's are out for the algorithms used by DCR, SIA, PASC, it's no longer profitable to dual mine those algorithms with GPU's. You are better off dual mining coins that use the new Blake2s and Keccak algorithms that were added to Claymore's dual miner.

Thank you, I had a friend help me build a rig and was left with minimal knowledge. He showed me how he runs his rig mining only ETH and I am trying to research now on how to mine the other coins. Seems senseless not to mine another coin. I am struggling to figure out how to mine for specific coins though and am trying to read through the read me and help files. Is there a tutorial somewhere to help me wrap my head around accomplishing this?.

You enable dual mining with the -mode 0 parameter and also set both pools and wallets for each coin in the miner .bat or config file. You can then monitor the miner on each pool. An example of a config for three RX 580's dual mining ETH + XVG is below. You need to find the best overclocking/undervolting and -dcri settings to use for your cards.

Code:

# WARNING! Remove "#" characters to enable lines, with "#" they are disabled and will be ignored by miner! Check README for details.
# WARNING! Miner loads options from this file only if there are not any options in the command line!

A good guide to follow for setting up an AMD rig to mine ETH on Windows 10 is www.mining.help. Lots of videos and tutorials on YouTube as well.

I have about 36% CPU utilization and 46% memory utilization out of 8GB. I also noticed while testing individual groups of GPU's using the -di parameter to find the best -dcri values for blake2s, ETHman wasn't dropping the connection. As soon as ~10 GPU's are running the connection starts dropping. Could it be a problem with indexing?

You can start two miner instances with -di 012345 and -di 6789ab to confirm this idea.
As soon as OpenCL works with 12 GPUs, system starts to work slowly with sockets accepting.

I did some testing with your suggestion. When running up to 11 GPU's using the -di parameter, ETHman, (which is running on another rig) doesn't lose it's connection.  As soon as I start a second miner instance for the other two GPU's, the first instance losses it's connection to ETHman and it only reports for the second instance with the fewer number of GPU's. Running 12+ GPU's in a single miner instance also causes intermittent ETHman disconnects. Is a core i3 CPU not enough?

As i mentioned ETHman reporting on the rig was working fine until about 2 months ago, so maybe the Windows v1709 FCU or new drivers changed something.

Which driver enabled more than eight AMD GPU in Windows?

[Vann]

The Crimson Relive 17.1x.x drivers and current Adrenalin enable more than 8 GPU's with the Windows v1709 FCU. You also need to enable Compute mode from Graphics mode in AMD settings for the blockchain Dag size fix.

I have a problem with Gigabyte WF2 1060 6Gb cards in Linux (SMOS).
In windows I have nice and stable hashrate 25.5, but in SMOS there is no chance to go more than 20.150. It looks like Ubuntu is not accepting OC settigs except Power Limit. What ever I change it's always the same.

Otherwise, with equihash algos, everything is working.

Any one have similar situation?

Thanks!

Hi guys, I've just installed the new version and Pascal mining seems to be disable. Is it just me or Pascal is not allowed anymore?

Hello when trying to join the group Antminepool does not make me connection

B2S: Authorization failed: (NULL)
Socket was closed remotely (by pool)
B2S: Job timeout, disconnect, retry in 20 sec...

This only happens if in wallet I put a XVG address that I have of Bittrex but if I take an address XVG of other users who have published here works perfect.

Is there a problem with that address of Bittrex?

Another problem I have is in zpool since yesterday I am extracting XVG with the same wallet of Bittrex D6mz8XLApBjeHEdrNXoFh8vZ5bjbxrbBmM and I have a pending payment that has not been reflected in Bittrex what I call the attention is that in Zpool shows me the Mon Eda Unobtanium and the wallet you have assigned is from XVG and the payment I have pending sample Total Paid * * * 0.02558559 UNO Will it be that the payment does not come because it is in a different currency?

Use ahashpool, there isnt problems.

ahashpool uses BTC addresses

[Mapuo]

Yes, whats the problem? I don't think anyone here wants verge. Everyone wants BTC.

[KJCrypto]

Yes I agree I meant easier for the other guy who was trying to use his bittrex XVG address. Everyone has a BTC address and ahashpool makes that easy

Claymore v11 gives me more hashrate (compared to 10.6) and running stable

RX 480

i think antminepool is having issues right now in general w all the new hash coming online

Both Uni and Ant seem to be having issues, understandable considering they have had thousands more miners connecting over the past couple of days.
With Uni I get rejected shares and with Ant I cannot currently connect.

unimining added a new dedicated stratum to use for xvg— stratum+tcp://xvg.eu1.unimining.net:5770

XVG Profitability is 40% less than it was 3 days ago, I have been following it and if this keeps up then is going to be much less, close to other dead dual mining coins, currently mining dcr with a gpu gives 0.10 usd per day.

Thanks, will try it out

Verge is too damn unstable.. when I try to mine it and get rejected or refused for being too full than my entire mining rig starts to lock up from the internet.  Seems miner does not like to get denied and my wireless stops responding to Teamviewer.

Unfortunately, this is true.
Do you know if there are any alternatives?

I'm just mining verge to hold till it gets pumped than I'll cash out I think this is the only alternative the problem is with all the ICO's mineable coins aren't being created like they where a year or 2 ago
