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

[Metroid]

Whats ur 2nd coin you mine using keccak if dont mind me asking? I was mining Pascal but it is going down the drain...

all dual coins are dead, mine eth only.

i noticed. thanks.

gosh, i was spoiled by higher hashrate already with the new kernels. using old kernels, hashrate swings are noticeable (i dont know if its because my oc has been messed up) and of course the little decrease in hashrate.

guess what, i came back deleting -oldkernels parameter and enjoy higher hashrate, i'll just readjust mclocks whenever incorrect share is logged.

cant go back to old hashrates/kernels anymore.  

atleast we now have options to revert back to old kernels without downgrading.

thanks sir

You may not get improvement with lower clocks. Do you have modified ram timing straps? When I get home I will compare stock bios with new kernel vs modified bios with old kernel in 11.5

really? isn't it the reported hashrate is an indication of speed? as long as you get no hwinfo errors and incorrect shares?

I had 4% incorrect shares no matter how much I slowed down in 11.x  Plus instability.

It's all gone with 11.5 running old kernels

Says who? It all depends on the situation.  I pay 10 cents CAD per kwhr for power.  If I mine smartcash it pays the whole power bill for that card and then some.

smartcash more profitable than verge ?

[Marvell2]

@claymore when will you add the ability to solo mine the new dual coins ? The pools are still really not up to par

[Vann]

I have the same amount of ETH incorrect shares dual mining with v11.4 as before over two rigs, at most 1 or 2 per 1000 shares on Nanopool. If you're getting more incorrect shares with v11.4, if probably means your settings were too high to begin with or a Bios mod with too aggressive timings. Use HwInfo to check for memory errors and adjust the memory clock down by 50 MHz until there are no more errors.

I'm mining SmartCash. It's the only dual mining option that's still profitable, though not by much.

Yes. For RX 570's, XVG is 1 cent profit per day after the incresed power and that isn't counting that you get much less from pools than what the calculator shows.

Yes I am using the nicehash keccak pool so you have to account for that too.  I think that is the best way to go.

Keccak profit will disappear once Nicehash upgrades to Claymore 11.x

[mcsnifferson]

I just switched a rig over from ETC+XVG (blake2s) to ETC+SMART (keccak).
But my ETC hashrate on RX580s went from 31 mh/s down to 11 mh/s with keccak as 2nd coin.
Obviously this isn't going to work for me.

Anyone else seeing this with keccak as 2nd coin?

I am using now the latest but a little bit confusion about the -dcri value, in the previous version the miner is not asking that thing, oh by the way what is the exactly work of dcri and what is the best value to put? I am using rx 570 cards mixed with 4 and 8gb memory, ONly single eth mining

GPU #0: apply best detected -dcri value: 12
GPU0 t=58C fan=0%, GPU1 t=53C fan=66%, GPU2 t=49C fan=0%, GPU3 t=51C fan=0%, GPU4 t=49C fan=0%, GPU5 t=51C fan=0%, GPU6 t=53C fan=0%, GPU7 t=51C fan=54%, GPU8 t=58C fan=0%, GPU9 t=57C fan=0%, GPU10 t=52C fan=0%, GPU11 t=58C fan=0%

GPU #10: apply best detected -dcri value: 8
GPU #11: apply best detected -dcri value: 10
Automatic detection of best -dcri values completed

P.S

Is it necessary to put the -oldkernels value? Kindly need some help.

Thanks

Reduce -dcri to 7 at least.

Try dcri of 6

7 will get you a bit more keccak but more heat and instability

Play with it. Don't be afraid to have the "hotter" GPUs at 6 and the cooler more stable ones at 7

If you are single mining perfect!  If you want to enter them in the bat file that will save time. They will not change unless you start dual mining.

Only apply oldkernels if you have instability or lots of rejected shares. Try it either way.  It will be slower with it applied.

v11.5:

- added "-oldkernels" option (AMD GPUs only), you can try "-oldkernels 1" to use old-style GPU kernels from v10, they can be more stable for hard OC and custom BIOSes.
- a bit reduced stale shares for Nvidia GPUs.

Mr Claymore , can you please add the oldkernels for nvidia also , i have tried all versions after 10.0 and none of them work as good as 10.0 , i dont know if its just me or my cards, (Nvidia 1070 FE)but any other version of miner after10.0 either crashes , or reports 50-80 mhs less to the pool. just make a version of 10.0 and add DAG Epoch to 299 , lot of us dont care for 1.5% more Mhs if we have to keep our rigs 2-4% of time down due to crashes or instability. i believe ppl with lots of miners will agree for a more stable miner then over 1.5% hash more in runtime. let the kids follow phoenix or whatever miner its out there and get wet over 3 shares more , they will all come back after they realize they spend a shitload of time troubleshooting rigs and tweaking clocks just to find out that they lose way way more than they think they win seeing in runtime slightly bigger numbers.
so please focus more on stability and reliability and efficiency of the miner then chasing ghost high numbers. thankyou. (maybe you can make a really stable version based on old stuff "10.0" and add as section called experimenting or testing or beta or whatever upload it to get tested and work from there on the experimental versions )
 Thanks again for your work

hey guys, how I disable the dual mining just for one gpu? I'm using -dcri 44,44,0,44

but isn't work.

[Marvell2]

I wont lie , I did have a few rigs unsable with 11.1 - 11.3

What i found is if i turned off dual mining they were fine, so I just left them be

@claymore If our rigs are relatively stable , should we just stay with 11.4 ?

for Nvidia rigs is it really worth it to go 11.5 ? some are saying its unstable , why would that be

-mode   Select mining mode:
   "-mode 0" (default) means dual Ethereum + Decred/Siacoin/Lbry mining mode.
   "-mode 1" means Ethereum-only mining mode. You can set this mode for every card individually, for example, "-mode 1-02" will set mode "1" for first and third GPUs (#0 and #2).
   For systems with more than 10 GPUs: use letters to specify indexes more than 9, for example, "a" means index 10, "b" means index 11, etc.

You can also hit the keyboard key for the GPU index number shown in the Claymore miner of the GPU you want to turn off dual mining for and it will cycle the GPU single/dual mining on or off.

Been running 10.6....has been rock solid. bit the bullet and moved to 11.5 and hash improvements 3.5 mhs per rig...(better than nothing)..

rig 1 x6 580s
rig 2 x6 580s

i forgot to add -oldkernal 1 initially and got a stack of memory errors...and the errors dramatically reduced when -oldkernal 1 was added and hash rate stayed the same.

just notices some instability with the hash rates..jumps to and from 173-181 a fair bit....

my current config:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-asia1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal xxx.rig1/xxx -epsw x -mode 1 -ftime 10 -oldkernels 1

any help would be fantastic.

thanks.
 

cheers

Is 11.6 is out where did you get that version? I can only see that the available right now in the main page is 11.5 how come that you already used the 11.6 version? If it is out do you have alink?

------------------------------------------

Oh I see you already corrected the 11.6, anyway i wont change mine.

I too have noticed some fluctuation.  3 to 5% per card.  I have bios modded rx580s.  Very stable though.  I am dual mining keccac.  0 rejected and incorrect. Some stale on keccac none on ETH. 

Hit Z to have it auto tune in mode 1.
