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

[DeDeRa]

Hi guys.
On Claymore 10.6 i had 550 hours on a row on nanopool, last time i upgrade to 11.4 2 days ago, no issues and hashrate was +0.5 better sometimes and sometimes just -0.5 less than the reported, most of the time...i had more average than reported, which is crazy. I upgrade tot 11.4 and my average hashrate drop to around 5 to 6 mhs less... I check and note down my average 24 hours hashrate 3 times per day and in 550 hours i had the average almost as the reported. With 11.4 although i have it only for 2 days, i never went beyond 187.0 mhs although i have 192.9 reported...over 5 mhs average lost in the dark. So 11.4 is broken, something is working really bad right there. I will let it run one more day, but im sure the 11.4 is garbage, thats all and i will stay with 10.6.
Good luck!

IMPORTANT UPDATE 15-3-2018:
As from today we enabled mining with your Litecoin wallet for the Blake2S / Keccak and YescryptR16 coins. Just put in your Litecoin wallet address and use password x and select your algo to mine.
The pool will pay you straight into your Litecoin (Coinbase/GDAX) wallet so you can convert straight to Eur/USD! ... this will save you a lot of time / effort and conversioncost!!

Example: -o stratum+tcp://mine.nlpool.nl:5766 -dwal <LTC_WALLET_ADDRESS> -dpsw c=xvg -dcoin blake2s | To mine XVG only and get payed in LTC



NLPool is a Dutch miningpool running in Amsterdam the Netherlands. The pool has been setup to provide a good and stable pool for people who are located in the Netherlands or Benelux. Our pool is dedicated to have less latency meaning lower risks for stale shares. This means you will get higher profits.

Our philosophy:
- Performance
- Profit by lowering latency and stale shares
- Security
- Minimum fees

Our mining fee will be of 0% for all Blake2S algo coins until April 1st. After the launch period, it will be fixed between 0.5% and 1%

How to contact us ?
E-mail: nlpool.nl@outlook.com
Telegram: : t.me/nlpool

Key features:
- Amsterdam dedicated server with DDos Protection
- Small mining fee : 0% during the 2 months launch period. After, between 0,5% and 1%
- Anonymous and no registration !
- Hourly payments
- yiimp multi-algo with several coins
- Everything is tested on a second non-productive server before launching to minimize your risks on the actual mining pool. (new stratum, webpages changes, payments and other code updates)

I had similar results, however over the last 12 or so hours I have had several cards lose their over clock and some rigs go offline. I've updated to 11.5 for the rigs having trouble with the oldkernels flag. Let's see if that is better.

I'd say I had a rock solid setup prior to 11.4, since 11.4 33% of my rigs have crashed.

[atecubanoS]

Why people stills report problem without specify their setup?

A LOT of posts here ppl complains but don't post their OS, their drivers even their GPUs!!! WTF?!

Looks like the fluctuation problem is related to ethermine... Just a guess...

[RuMiner]

I've noticed with the newer versions from 11.2 although claymore shows higher hashrate the calculated hashrate at the pool is significantly  lower. I've reduced the clocks on a couple of cards so no memory errors but still a lot lower. Anyone experience this? Any suggestions?

I posted this screen recently: https://yadi.sk/i/VqsiqXBk3TPi24
Arrow shows changing 11.4 to 11.5 with old kernels (i.e. like 11.1 miner). It definitely works better. rigs uptime 21 hours.

When you first run version 11.5
Windows wrote the error that the program EthDcrMiner64.exe is stopped!

I got such window on 11.2 - 11.4 miners. If you find this crash in eventlog, it shows amdocl64.dll is responsible for it. "-oldkernels 1" fixed this for me.

Something is very wrong with ethermine in these latest 2 days!! Going with nanopool for a while to see if there is a difference

[alex_85]

Yep, ethermine stale shares went from 1-2% to 8-12% , at the moment i have 3 % staoe shares. Could we ask ethermine if there is any reason for that? will see how it will stay...

The reason for that is that the pool difficulty @ Ethermine is set to low. Then the chance of you finding a share someone else found are higher.

A simple raise of difficulty would help here. The difficulty @ nanopool has been set higher, so you see less, or no stales there.

My stale shares are very low in these days (1%) but also effective and average had a steep decrease, like I'm not getting shares. Moved to SSL ethermine server just to see if there is a difference. Also put a rig on nanopool for comparison

[DeDeRa]

Its not ethermine, im on nanopool and its getting worse by the day, but the fault is from Claymore. I had almost same average hashrate like the reported, in many days even more, for weeks, with 10 to 10.6, but i was a fuckin idiot and changed to this shit 11.5 and i get 5 to 9 less mhs than reported... Its utterly and absolutly garbage. I will go back to 10.6...

[Ursul0]

I flashed my RX 570's back in April 2017.
Claymore's miner has been working stable in version 11.4, 11.3 and any previous version just as well.

I think you guys complaining about crashes must have dodgy memory straps or are just overclocking too far. Just check the log, identify the GPU going down and dial back that OC.

good for you. there's however indeed some instability of the v 11.4 version.
Never before the application had crashed on me, and I'm talking hundreds gpus( with 11.4 already two occasions on different workers) also on some of the cards I had to reduce the mem clocks to get back to stable operations

[big al]

So in a perfect world effective hash rate would be 2% lower than reported on ethermine?

I've got higher

[infectedmushi]

@Claymore

seem there's issues with 11.5 and nvidia cards. i am getting a terrible fluctuation on reported hashrate

https://preview.ibb.co/ij0KNx/reported.png

as you can see, it goes as low as 156MH/s | 175MH/s, etc ... the rig does 188MH/s with 6 nvidia 1070, on previous versions.

anyone experiencing the same?

No problem here...

how can you possible compare? you are using Linux, my report was on Windows....

[atecubanoS]

@Claymore

seem there's issues with 11.5 and nvidia cards. i am getting a terrible fluctuation on reported hashrate

https://preview.ibb.co/ij0KNx/reported.png

as you can see, it goes as low as 156MH/s | 175MH/s, etc ... the rig does 188MH/s with 6 nvidia 1070, on previous versions.

anyone experiencing the same?

No problem here...

Was? Where do you specify Windows at your report?  

Sorry, but I didn't find that information...

I use AMD cards and I'm also having fluctuation on reported hashrate with 11.5 version.

[criptooo]

Which version is best for my nvidia 1050 ti cards, can also share the bat file thanks

[j2james]

Which version is best for my nvidia 1050 ti cards, can also share the bat file thanks

Looks like for all NVIDIA cards 10.6 is the best

[NathanJackson]

Highly optimized 13x RX480 rigs, custom per card bios, etc. 0 invalid shares, 24ms accept time, on eth1.ethermine.org
Was running perfeclty stable for weeks with 11.1

Witih 11.2, 11.3 and 11.4 crashes all the time.
Hash rate increases but there is no point in it if I have to lower the memclocks to keep the cards from crashing.

Back to 11.1 and stable again, relatively high stale rate (5-15%). 0 invalid shares. 24ms accept time.
Back to 10.6 and lowered stale rate even more (2%).

For me, I'll stay with 10.6
Or can you think of any cons?

[Vann]

You should be able to rename the folder with the current version in the miner folder on ethOS. Then create a new folder with the same name, add the v11.2 files and run sudo chmod +x on ethdcrminer64 to make it executable.
