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

[tools83]

Just run 11.3

I have 2 x RX580 with 8 Gb (bios mods) and 3 x  RX470 with 8Gb (no BIOS mods) in my rig.

For testing I've choose auto detect -dcri value and miner detect value of 30 for all 5 cards. For RX580 -dcri 30 is the wright choice for best ETH+DCR mining output. But for rx470's -dcri 30 is not the best one, the best one is 24.

I believe the miner is not able to chose best -dcri value for different type of cards in one rig?

However it is a useful option to help find best setup.

Thank you Claymore.

UPDATE: I improved support for systems with a lot of GPUs ( > 8 ) and slow CPU: less CPU load, EthMan works fine now. I will release new version within a few days, also some other improvements will be included.

I do not see high cpu usage but v11.2 seems to work very good only with small amount of GPUs and unpredictable on big (13) on linux.

Claymore, please add more statistic for invalid shares. (GPU#11 got invalid share....)
Like this:
Total Speed: 365.564 Mh/s, Total Shares: 2664, Rejected: 1, Invalid shares: 0, Time: 08:21
and per GPU like this:
Total Shares: 2636(205+214+238+217+216+220+225+217+239+229+204+212), Rejected: 1(0+0+0+0+0+0+0+1+0+0+0+0), Invalid shares: 1(0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+1)
Thanks in advance!

RTFM

Auto DCRI is only for single mining.

Across 1.5ghs on various rigs I gained ~15-20mhs total going from 11.1 to 11.3.

570 rigs gained 4-5mhs
580 rigs gained 1-2mhs

Not sure why that is...

Coincidence after Claymore affirmed that Phoenix (being Phoenix faster) stole his kernels (he found out by disassembling the miner, and looking at code, which then can be used) ?

Don't get me wrong, both developers do an excellent job, and this "miners wars" only is good for us.

Been mining ETH only with Nanopool for a few months and I want to add second coin in dual.
Can I add a seperate DCR suprnova pool and keep mining with Nanopool for ETH.

Thanks.

Yes you can

Was dual mining Keccak on 3x 8gb 580s at -dcri 6 and 3x at -dcri 8 without a problem.  Restarted rig, and the 3 at -dcri 6 can't mine stable on any intensity.  Ones at -dcri 8 kept going just fine.

The mysteries of hardware.

I understand that automatic dcri is only for eth solo mode. For dual mining mode dcri value 30 is only default value not the best value.

GPU hangs are most often from to a high overclock, especially on the memory or too much undervolt for that card. Sometimes draining all the power from the capacitors also helps reset the GPU's and risers. Shutdown down the rig, cutoff the power to the PSU with the switch on the back and press the power button to drain all the power. Then after 1-2 minutes turn the rig back on.

Thanks, let me try this out.

I did memory bios flash to the max, if turn off doesn't work I will 're flash to lower MHz.

Tried complete shut down and 're start but did not work. Then reduce  men clock from 2250 to 2200 and miner worked longer than before before 're-start. I think I will have find the balance  set up to get this going.

However, on monero it doesn't give any problem but 8 gb card gives less hashes proportionate to 4th. 4gb gives 413 and 8 gb 830 hashes which is almost 2 times of 4gb. Whereas, on eth 4gb is 13 mhs and 8 gb is 31 mhs which is almost 2.5 times of 4 gb.

dcri is different for each coin and card, for mine rx570, dcri = 42 is the best for eth/xvg

why now windows and any other av delete file on download ,i cant even extract it

This is because all av detect miners as a virus

1.Create a folder MINERS (or any name) - add this folder to windows defender exclusion list
2.switch OFF windows defender real time protection and download miner to the above folder
3. switch ON windows defender real time protection

You are correct. -dcri values are detected automatically only for AMD cards in ASM ETH-only mode. For dual mode it is always 30 if you did not specify "-dcri" option directly.

Yes you can

Hi all, I got modded 560-s. Here is my question - why I am getting 13mh on Musicoin on each card and only 10mh on Ethereum on each card? any suggestions? Thanks. 

[Rewore]

New Version 11.3 abysmally unstable.  Having multiple cards report abnormally large hashrates then crashing after 1-2 minutes of mining.   Attaching logs.

Hi all, I got modded 560-s. Here is my question - why I am getting 13mh on Musicoin on each card and only 10mh on Ethereum on each card? any suggestions? Thanks. 

My understanding is that the DAG file for each coin is different so you will see a different hashrate for different coins using the same algo. Try it with other ethash coins and see what you get.

I switched to linux version of Claymore some time ago. But am I blind or why is linux version storing in log files less info then win version? For example one of my rigs is rebooting. I want to analyze problem reading logs. On windows version I saw in that case for example Gpu0 failed. On linux I can see only "NVML: cannot get fan speed, error 999" but NO info about which gpu crashed the driver. Can anybody point me right direction?
Thanks a lot...

Use blockchain drivers or set "compute" mode in drivers.

Hi,

Using this miner with old R9 280x in single mode.

When I mine altcoins I get 20 mh.
But when I mine Etherium I get only 10 mh.

Why???

What altcoins were you mining? Different coins have different algorithms and different speeds. If you were mining another ethash coin (Ethereum classic, Ubiq, or Expanse) and getting different speeds then there might be an issue.

Ellaism(ELLA) for example...

The DAG file of ETH is large. So it is slow.

So there is no sense to mine ETH with this GPU? Only altcoins?

Nvidia 1060 3gb have same problem?

What GPU memory size should be to have same hashrate as with altcoins?

280X is slow for DAG over 2GB, no fix yet. DAG for Ethereum is more than 2GB so it is slow, better mine other coins.
