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

replace the -epool with -dpool command before the second coin to mine configuration, see below

 EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool stratum+tcp://eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal MYWALLETADDRESS/Rig2 -esm 0 -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://exp-us.dwarfpool.com:8018 -ewal MYWALLETADDRESS/Rig2 -epsw x -allpools 1 -wd 1 -r 1

I didn't even notice: that, the second "-ewal" and second "-epsw" all should be "-dxxx" instead.

Still getting the same error.

You don't have a "-dcoin" and DCR is the default: is that what you intended?

thank you for sharing. It's really helpful

I have tired that way, reversed etc.  I'm just running out of ideas. The only way to mine is if I disable that 2gb video card, if I use the code below and disable the 2gb video card it mines perfectly.  As soon I enable the 2gb card I get the DAG error.  Maybe its time to run a second mining program, I wish DAG file didn't have to be on the video card and can be put on a secondary SSD drive or current SSD drive.

set GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
set GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
set GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

What you could do is to mine a low dag Algo with that specific card, try ETC, run separate instance of claymore miner and use -di options pointing to your 2GB gpu and mine ETC.

[sandbagger]

hello, any chance of support for overclocking with nvidia cards? the 1060's in particular can mine at 23 mhs with 70% or even less power limit, afterburner only support 8 gpus max, kinda of a bummer with 13+ pcie slots motherboards.

works fine with 13 cards

you just need to use settings for the cards more than 8
They fixed that with a beta  a few versions ago, works fine now with the final released version 4.4.2

I've set up keccak on a YIIMP pool. With pool difficulty set at 1024 (the same setting that the official SmartCash pools use), ccminer was getting about 50% bad shares due to low difficulty. We found the batch file has to use the "-m 2" switch to multiply the difficulty, or manually set difficulty higher to resolve this problem. Setting the pool difficulty to 2048 did not help.

People are having problems dual-mining ETH and SMART due to this 50% bad shares due to low difficulty issue. I can't find a difficulty multiplier param or difficulty modification param for Claymore miner. Does something like this exist?

Anyone know what might help me fix this problem on the pool?

Thanks

This is a little embarrassing but I have tried everything but cannot get v11 to work. I copied over my .bat file and for some reason the miner keeps picking a monero pool. I have tried the -epool but it comes up as a wrong unknown option. I am about to rip my hair out!

[Metroid]

I know we can no longer mine Ethereum with 2gb cards

If you updated your windows 10 version then you can't with 3gb too cause the new updated windows 10 version takes 666mb and the dag file is right now at 2.33gb + 666mb = 3gb, nobody can mine eth with 3gb on windows 10 anymore.

i am mining with 3gb card

Do not update, if you do then gameover.

Is this a recent update?

Yes.

[Ursul0]

Just wanted to share that 11.0 rock solid, no single freeze or spurious reboot, while on 10.3/10.6 it was rebooting several times per day.

+1

With older claymore versions, I got several restart per day beacuse "WATCHDOG: GPU 5 hangs in OpenCL call, exit", but with 11.0 my rig is running smoothly for +48h now.

Great job Claymore

The hashrate seems to be a bit higher with v11, cannot say though I noticed any stability increase, however due to the fact that I care none for the occasional restart (also have WD installed on most of the workers) maybe just a tiny bit as well...

DON'T do any "bat files". put all your options into config.txt and delete dpools and epools .txt and run the executable without any parameters

[xodes777]

I'm about to give up, I can't seems to setup dual mining for ETH + XVG (Blake2s).
The miner keep restart saying "WATCHDOG: GPU error, you need to restart miner "
I googled it for hours and couldn't find anyone with the same issue as me.

If someone here can help that would be amazing!
I have only 1 card - RX 580 8GB, no OC and running AMD mining beta driver on Windows 10

Here is how my .bat file looks like:

I think this is a problem in Claymore 11.0 !!! The developer changed something there, I also have this error and many other people. Add an option on the command line "-wd 0" and there will be no restart! I have the latest Adrenalin drivers, maybe there's a problem with this, but Claymore 10.2 works fine without errors!
We will wait for the correction of this bug....

[sir4o]

I've set up keccak on a YIIMP pool. With pool difficulty set at 1024 (the same setting that the official SmartCash pools use), ccminer was getting about 50% bad shares due to low difficulty. We found the batch file has to use the "-m 2" switch to multiply the difficulty, or manually set difficulty higher to resolve this problem. Setting the pool difficulty to 2048 did not help.

People are having problems dual-mining ETH and SMART due to this 50% bad shares due to low difficulty issue. I can't find a difficulty multiplier param or difficulty modification param for Claymore miner. Does something like this exist?

Anyone know what might help me fix this problem on the pool?

Thanks

Difficulty is a pool related setting. You can decrease Claymore intensity (there is a parameter for that), or try tuning -dcri. However I doubt this is your goal here...

[woodaxe]

Offtopic: did you know that stock Vega64 can do >2MH/s neoscrypt?

i cannot find any mining software for this that works with Vega cards

[ccminer.net]

Hello guys

I have a problem, i have a rig with 8 cards, in single eth works fine! when I tried to dual with the last version of the miner, it worked for few days, than I GPU (the #7) drop the hashrate to 0 and I got this error

Code:

WATCHDOG: GPU error, you need to restart miner

I tried to reduce the intensity but nothing!
What should I do?

The cards are RX570 nitro plus (*4) and RX570 mini(*4) both of them 4gb

try to replace the risers, most probably that's the culprit.

I'll try thx, but may I ask why you think the rise should be the problem?

[Andrey123]

Dear friends!
Now one coin of the ETC is produced, but the complexity has grown very much (

How can I replace this coin with another coin using the Etnash algorithm?
Also I do not know what second coin to connect for duala.
Wallet VERGE is not installed normally.
Decred and Siacoin past.

And I do not know other algorithms.

[kkourmousis]

I have been XVG mining with AntMinePool for the last couple of weeks. Indeed the rewards are less than they should (I haven't calculated how much).

With 8x RX580 (~11.5GH/s) one can solve an XVG block in about a month (with current difficulty).

Why do we even bother with pools? Even it this doen't pay out, we are talking about 30kwh of extra power cost per month.

I am seriously thinking of trying it out. Does anyone have a valid argument why shouldn't I?

I have been XVG mining with AntMinePool for the last couple of weeks. Indeed the rewards are less than they should (I haven't calculated how much).

With 8x RX580 (~11.5GH/s) one can solve an XVG block in about a month (with current difficulty).

Let me answer my own question

This version is POOL/SOLO for Ethereum, POOL for Decred, POOL/SOLO for Siacoin, POOL for Lbry, POOL for Pascal, POOL for Blake2s, POOL for Keccak.

So, Mr.Claymore is SOLO for Blake2s/Keccak a possibility?

I noticed that your pool is slowing in term of pool hashrate.

To be fair , I  tried your little pool yesterday night,  and I earned the 1 XVG per hour I deserved.
There was a 5 minute problem between 6.40 and  6.45 early this morning but that was it.
Well, will be nice if the pool become bigger up to a block per hour, but I can survive with 3 hour payment

I had a less and less earnings from XVGminingclub, and sometimes for hours no any data.
I was tried there SMART, but rejected 100% shares
