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

[mine_phun]

Hi everyone,

I've been using Claymore's Dual miner since July 2017, and I'm a happy miner. I've been mining Ethereum + Decred using 8 rigs totaling 64 video cards (GTX 1070 FFW2 Hybrid), and I am thinkinng about switching to Ethereum + SiaCoin in the next days. What altcoins would you recommend mining when Ethereum becomes too hard to mine?

I would reconsider that. Sia is mined with ASIC ' s , so mining it with a GPU is not profitable and a waste of power.

Your first choice would be mine ETH + Verge , however Verge is way overloaded at the moment.

Example Verge : EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal <WalletETH>.<RIGNAME> -epsw x -etha 0 -dpool  stratum+tcp://mine.nlpool.nl:5766 -dwal <WALLETVERGE> -dpsw c=XVG -dcoin blake2s -r 1 -dcri 45

Your second best choice would be mining Shield ( https://www.shieldx.sh ) , as the coin has almost the same value. Verge and Shield are configured in our Pool NLpool and your can mine it with example:

Example Shield : EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal <WalletETH>.<RIGNAME> -epsw x -etha 0 -dpool  stratum+tcp://mine.nlpool.nl:5766 -dwal <WALLETSHIELD> -dpsw c=XSH -dcoin blake2s -r 1 -dcri 45

@mine_phun, i tried SmartCash on your pool but i get Auth error.......
Also would like to see the others opinion is XVG more likely to grow than Smart, as i see 620 workers on NLPool mine blake2s but none mine keccak-Smart

I am running 6 RX580s, newest Radeon drivers, Claymore 11.0. When I use the memory and core voltage and clock parameters, they have no effect. This is my command line:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal ... -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://xvg.eu1.unimining.net:5770 -dwal ... -dpsw c=XVG -allpools 1 -esm 1 -mode 0 -dcoin blake2s -asm 1 -dcri 49 -platform 1 -ftime 0 -tt 65 -ttli 75 -tstop 80 -tstart 50 -mclock 2065,2065,2030,2065,2065,2065 -mvddc 800 -cvddc 850 -mport -10047 -r 1 -dbg 0

Any advice on this?

Dummy 4K "headless" emulator / adapters: has anyone found situations where you have to use them?  I see these for anywhere from $3 to $8 for HDMI and $8 and up for true DisplayPort - both of those being the 4096 x 2180 (i.e. "4K UHD") resolution adapters with 60Hz refresh rate.  I see less expensive versions for 1920HD.

I suppose that I am always linking to my ViewSonic XG2704 240MHz refresh display, so I haven't run into the need for them, but I was talking to a friend last night that absolutely insisted that - in order to get the best hash rate - you really should have them for your display-less GPU cards.

I have to restart the miner to make the config work.

AMD settings ot trixx running in background?

Hey all, i have 4 x Rx570 Armor, how many Verge coins you mine one day with one GPU?

you have to set -dcri 35 and you will get 4/5000 Mh depend on the overclock. this will bring you south of 18 verge/ day, at the current difficult

Not true. You absolutelly don't need dummy plugs. Best hashrate with them? Bullshit. The gpu with dummy plug connected to it need to render also side by side with mining the picture of the dummy plug, so hashrate can be even worse. On my rigs I have dummy plugs connected just to onboard graphics output to get comfort for remote viewing my rigs, but this is rendered by iGPU, so it is not affecting mining in any way.

Will a dummy plug fix the issue with using windows rdp with claymore?
I didnt have -asm in my config.txt, will I loose hashrate?

FWIW I’ve got 2 x RX570 Armour -dcri 10 for 1000Mh getting 4 verge/day without affecting ETH (58MH)
It did bump the power by 10% (300W at wall to 330W)

Dual Mine ETH @ethermine and XVG @unimining

Guys, I am using the follow in SMOS to dual mine ETH @ethermine and XVG @unimining using blake2s:

-wd 1 -r 1 -epool stratum+tcp://us2.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal ETH_ADDRESS -esm 0 -epsw x -allpools 1 -mport -3333 -estale 1
-dpool stratum+tcp://xvg.eu1.unimining.net:5770 -dpool XVG_ADDRESS -dpsw x -dcoin blake2s

When i start the miner it gives me error that "XVG_ADDRESS - no port specified -ignore"

I am specifying the XVG_ADDRESS port in the command under "stratum+tcp://xvg.eu1.unimining.net:5770"

So what is wrong here.. appreciating the help in advance?

Second "-dpool" is messing you up. Should be "-dwal", right?

Thank you so much!!! Yes, that was it.. solved the problem on 6x1070ti now getting about 32 ETH and 320 XVG per card now

Why would anyone dual mine verge as it is not profitable? What dual coin is profitable to mine? I would mine a second coin at break even but which coin has most potential?

I was mining ETH at same rate before.. adding XVG is just bonus without affecting ETH.. so I don't see how it is non-profitable mining coin? Also interested to know what other folks are doing for dual mining

SHIELD coin has a nice price and low diff, you can try mining that :

-dcoin blake2s -dpool stratum+tcp://mining.oxo.rs:4444 -dwal <XSH_WALLET_ADDRESS> -dpsw c=XSH

Or NevaCoin also still has a low diff :

-dcoin blake2s -dpool stratum+tcp://mining.oxo.rs:4444 -dwal <NEVA_WALLET_ADDRESS> -dpsw c=NEVA

My rigs forced update to Win 10 Fall Creators edition. However i get strange problem. GPU0 on x16 port hashrate always stays at 0h/s and then crashes. This happens on all rigs. Your ZEC miner works ok. I tried various drivers from blockchain beta to latest adrenalin (switched to compute mode) and it is always the same. Anybody has a solution??

Thanks.

Hello,

A doubt, I have several rigs with 8 GPU's, is it possible for example, for 6 GPU's to mine for a wallet and the other 2 GPU's for a different one at the same time?

Thanks!

[Vann]

Use the -di parameter in the .bat file to index the six cards you want mining to the first wallet and use a second .bat file to index the other two cards to the second wallet.

Hello guys,

Can someone help with keccak config? I just can't make it work.
I'm using epools.txt and dpools.txt for my pools, and start.bat to start the miner .
epools.txt: POOL: eu1-etc.ethermine.org:4444, WALLET: 0x72*******************.rig5, PSW: x, ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 1
dpools.txt POOL: hub.miningpoolhub.com:20461, PSW: ******, WORKER: *****.rig5, ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 1

The -dcoin keccak it's set in start.bat

Same config for decred works, for keccak no.

Thanks.

dpools needs a wallet: not a worker:?
