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

[cryptominermx]

Are there ANY coins worth dual mining now?

Nope. I went back to mining exclusively ETH.
Any second coin you try to mine costs you more in electricity currently. Not worth it. Want a secondary coin? Buy it.

Spot on. Ethash mining only is the way forward for right now.

I decided to do a quick compare on a single GTX 1070 machine (in hiveos so it is consistent):

1. Eth mining only: 29.3 MH/s @ 144W
2. Eth + XVG: 29.2MH/S Eth and 292MH/s XVG @ 158W

So for this single gpu including XVG mining costs me .1 MH/s of Eth mining and 14W of power for 292MH/s of XVG blake2s mining. That seems worth it? I don't have any calculator that includes XVG using blake2s though.

@eqpr With those numbers, and assuming a cost of 12 cents USD per KW, you are spending 4 cents to make 7 cents (only a 3 cent profit) and that doesn´t account for the additional .5% you are loosing in ethereum due to the higher fee for dual mining (which would be about one cent more in cost). It´s up to you to decide whether spending 5 cents to make 7 cents is worth it or not (to me it def isn´t, but that is my personal opinion). Now, these numbers change constantly, so that it isn´t worth it today, doesn´t mean it might not be worth doing tomorrow or the day after that; as a miner you gotta keep on top of these calculations and see shifts that would benefit you and make the best with whatever equipment you have available.

hello, I have an issue regarding my miners.. when I remotely connect to my RIGS with third party applications such as team viewer or anydesk.. GPU0 shows 0,00 hashes and claymore restarts.. What might be causing the problem ?

I am doing the same. Using igpu.
It works with teamviewer but not windows rdp.

has this been solved yet i have the same issue

Hey guys looking for some help here.

I recently setup another mining rig with 2 GPUS. I am mining to mining pool hub using only the claymore dual Algo. My system keeps shutting down, and im getting the following error in the log file. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cards are 2 R9 290x Tri-x

what pools for blake2s xvg?

I am currently trying out coinfoundry.  Have switched from uni, antmine and zpool as returns were no where near w2m reported.
ttps://coinfoundry.org

I'm launching a new pool for XVG Blake2s. 0% FEE during beta, then 1% FEE. No more hidden fees ever. Many pool advertise 0% FEE but they steal 30% - 50% of what we mine.
Multiple premium servers, high availability and load balancing. I've been testing for days but I need real load conditions.

If you can, give me a chance.

https://premiumminer.com

Thanks!

Swapping 50 GHs to your pool.
Antmine, for me, it gives with 40% less.
Nlpool was good, now it's way worse than antminepool.
I hoe your pool can make some difference.

I moved my 3 rigs to your pool as well

update:

mining for an hour no earned xvg.... https://premiumminer.com/?address=D7smhMa6RQYTtX8WyfB3s829doEojRV8wT

Hi,

Thanks for join.

At current hasrate +120 GH/s, approximate time to mine the first block would be 2-4 days, if it's more people join the pool, more hasrate, then we will need less time to mine the first block.

The beginnings are always difficult ... I hope more people join.

plus in your pool I'm using around 100-150w less on total power drawn

To be totally honest, I have not done any optimization so that the mining consumes less energy. Maybe the new version of claymore has more merit than me in reducing consumption. However, it is an unexpected gift

What percentage does 100-150w over total energy consumption?

We are going up the number of connected miners, we are slowly getting bigger hashrate, which reduces the time to receive the first block. I hope that more people continue joining. I have posted messages in different places so that more people can join, if you could collaborate posting in places that you know would be a great help.

Thanks!

@Premiermine

For me it will be easy to test how profitable is mining on your pool because I am here from start.

Block reward of 1560 XVG multiplied with percent of my shares (currently it is about 1.5-1.6%) should be approximately 23-24 XVG.  Even if I get this sum for 48h of dual mining it will be great result - 12 XVG per 24h with 3000 Mh/s which is close with WTM calculations (12.2 per day) On other pools I got between 7-10 XVG for 24h with same parameters. So pools fees of 0.4-0.5% for XVG are not the only profit for most of their owners. I hope your minig pool will prove this and in that case I am ready to pay more than 1% for mining pool fee!

For some normal work in future, you will need at least 1-2 Th/s pool hash-rate power because many people are not ready to wait 24h or more hours to see any result of their mining. I saw many of them comes, spent few hours and leave pool because don't understand how it works or just didn't have patience. 

I think you should open new topic for pool relative posts.

[djmuler]

Within 1-2 days I will release new version that produces a bit less stale shares (about 1%, at least on AMD cards), it must help to raise effective hashrate a bit.

are you sure for that?

less stales by about 1%

ok hope to see live, and hope that % is greater like 2 or 3% 

Great news clay

[GoldenArcher]

I'm new to Claymore and have been using v11. If this new version doesn't appear to benefit me, is there a point in updating? Or am I safe just sticking with what's working for me?

[eviltuna]

If anyone is looking for an blake2s XVG pool try my new dedicated mining pool. 0% Fees. Basically started the pool cause in having trouble with the other pools going down and the low rewards. 0% till June. Absolutely no hidden fees. Server has been running stable for a week.

NEW VERGE XVG Pool - blake2s Pool 0% FEES

Looking just for the release notes of the new version, I didn’t update too. I don’t think 11.1 have any thing to improve mine performance

Hi,

I believe that all people should think about a long-term relationship. I have been mining for only two years, there are people who have been mining since 2009, almost 10 years. Some pools attract people with 0% FEE, they have a lot of hashrate and people start to see money in their wallet very fast, I respect it, but sometimes the leaf does not allow to see the forest, while 30-50% of yours coins are being robbed. 30-50% How much money do they lose for a month? and in a year? Its a lot of money.

The beginnings are always difficult. As I write these lines I am monitoring 24 ip from different parts of the world launching 10,000 connections each per second against our pool, it is a DDOS attack, since the first minute of the pool launch, I was wondering how long it would take the rival pools to launch a DDOS, we already have response, less than 24 hours.

It is clear that there are people who do not like competition, they have a very lucrative business, they do not want to leave space for honest and humble people who want to do things well, why not say it, earning a little money in return after beta test, 1% in exchange for making it easier for people to mine. Everyone wins.

I just hope that more people join so we can get enough hashrate for all of us to win. I commit to reinvest to have a better infrastructure that allows us to be up.

Let's hope that the first block arrives. Good idea, as soon as I can, I open the new topic in Alt Coins -> Pools.

Thanks!

what exactly do you mean by the mining performance?

[miner95]

Hi,
I'm from Iran and unfortunately in my country, ISPs block most known ports like 4444 and 5555 for all users.
For this reason i'm always using 14444 port in mining with ethermine.org and don't have problems until claymore update 11.1.
Now in update 11.1 claymore use eu1.ethermine.org:5555 with ssl connection for devfees thats can't open for me and my mining just repeat:

devfee: Connot connecting to eu1.ethermine.org:5555
Retry in 20 Seconds

devfee: Connot connecting to eu1.ethermine.org:5555
Retry in 20 Seconds

 
....

I have to re-use 11.0 for this problem.
Please make a option that let users fully disable SSL also for devfee and like 11.0 version devfee uses same server port as we choose in command line.
 
....

Sorry for my bad English because my first language is not English.

[timedk]

Sorry to hear you are getting a DDOS attack, must be frustrating.  I'm almost @ 24 hrs on your pool.  Fingers crossed.

Hello guys! I have one problem I set my 580 8GB rigs to do dual mining on black2s with an dcri 45 and I don't have any hashrate drops from ethereum but when I try to set the cards 580/570 with only 4GB I can make a proper settings to don't have drops on my ethereum hashrate evan if I set dcri to 20.. How we can set the 4GB cards to don't have drops? any idea guys?

With dcri 20 I still have less with around 10-5 MH/s on 6 570 4 GB cards. Thanks!

Hi,

So i wonder how i can make my rig restart when it hangs in windows. I Added -r 1 and i also made a "reboot.bat" in same folder, is there something im missing?´

shutdown /r /t 5 /f


ETH.BAT
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1

Hi,

I am wondering if you have plans to create a miner for RavenCoin (X16r algo). I would very much like to mine this coin but there is no AMD miner yet.
There is $500k Ravencoin bounty to produce a working AMD miner.

Maybe Wolf0 would be interested. He's worked with X algorithm kernels for SGminer in the past when x11 spin offs were popular.

I am having an issue after I extract the Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v11.1 for Windows.  I use 7-zip and after I extract the files I cannot run or access any of the files.  I did notice that 7-zip says the host os uses fat while I have NTFS.  Should I use a different program to extract the files?  I did try winrar as well.

Thank you.

Have you downloaded the program from the oficial link?

https://mega.nz/#F!O4YA2JgD!n2b4iSHQDruEsYUvTQP5_w

Yes I did.  Other zips I download work fine, it is just the newer dual miner that I have this issue.

In case it helps anyone else, with 7-zip I had to do a copy to instead of the normal extract files for the files to work.
