Yes just make sure after install the cards are set to compute |

Claymore - Would it be possible to have the logs go into a subfolder in the next version?
+1 yes that's a really good idea or autodelete and leave only few recent logs Both of these are already possible ages ago. in logfile add subdir like /subdir/logname_log.log and logsmaxsize set to whatever MBs you want to hold logs for. People refuse to read the readme file supplied with each miner. So lazy. Want instant answers without putting any effort into it. |

Those of you on Windows 10 getting random shutdowns do this:
Right click start. bat file - properties - options - uncheck QuickEdit Mode - apply - ok
What happens is a window like control panel, Windows defender or task manager comes up and the console freezes. Then the window goes away Claymore resumes and uh oh! Looks like our GPUs failed. But they didnt. Fall creator update did this not Claymore.
While you're in there increase the font size and make it bold.
I dont think you are right on this ...- I dont have creartor update on my nvdia rigs , rigs working fine with v 11.2 without any problem - 11.4 and 11.5 working fine with AMD cards, but my nvidia rigs keep restarting randomly if im using 11.4 or 11.5 So... its can not be the win 10 creator update ... and yes claymore 11.4 and 11.5 creating the random restarts , 11.2 working just fine ... @claymore, what this means?
...
2 x GTX 1070.
It happens only on nvidia gpus and all gpus at once. This is in your latest version 11.5v. The computer keeps restarting because of that. It does not restart straight away, time to happen it is random.
Regardless of how or why (I don't think it was a recent Windows 10 update, either), you should turn "QuickEditMode" off. It does cause the problem described where the window appears to be "frozen". |

What happened guys, i was mining very good with v.11.4 with the fixed stale shares and everything was great 1-2 % stale shares. But now (12 hours already) i got 8-12 % stale shares and nothing was changed. Is there any problem with ethermine ?
Anyone else noticed doubled stale shares last 12 hours ?
noticed the same on 11.4 @nanopool. as there are no stale shares at Nano I just see the reduced calculated hash after 12+ hours of mining. first 12 hours average hash is slightly higher than reported, that it goes lower and lower. rig: 5x sapphire nitro+ 570 + 2x sapphire nitro+ 580 |

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%).
Claymore, thanks very much for putting in -oldkernels into 11.5. Reporting everything works smooth now. Thanks very much for your efforts. |

janding - grow up. I've read the readme several times and this thread. I still can't figure out how to get it work. The readme does not mention a subfolder, just filename. I'm running windows. Edit: Now that I know it is possible, I figured it out. You have to use the full windows path... For example... -logfile C:\Claymore\logs\logname_log.log |

Previously dcri was 30 by default in v10.6 - ETH only mining
Now in 11.5 if it is not specified claymore auto-detects the best dcri for the gpu
With the auto-detect I get dcri values 14,20,8 and the system is not stable and crashes ever few hours despite using -oldkernels 1
whereas with the 10.6 which had default dcri of 30.. never had crashes

Do you mine running HwInfo 24/7 can affect hashrate/valid shares and overall work of the miner?
Yes, it can affect overall stability of a system I have just recently started running HWinfo 24/7 and have not had any problems - so far - but that said it is best not to have anything else running when mining as it could affect the overall stability. |

Yes, I've had the same with hwinfo. I installed and ran it and lost 5-10% hashrate. Turned it off, and back to normal. |

If anyone has any insight on this, been reading/searching for some time and cannot figure it out:
Have a single rig with 4x1050 TI and 1xRX 560 (yes, I'm small time - but sorry, already taken, ladies). Running v11.4 as 11.5 keeps locking the PC up completely. AMD drivers are 17.12.1. Mining in ETH only mode. Zero hardware errors on HWInfo and no BIOS/clock/voltage/power modifications on the AMD.
The AMD card is showing a hashrate of ~9.18 vs ~13.5 on all the Nvidia cards. Miner showing 0 rejected/incorrect shares after 24 hours of mining. AMD card has right at 50% of the average shares of the 4 Nvidias - on nanopool if that matters. Looking at the submissions from the logs and all the shares from the Nvidia cards are accepted within ~170ms, but the AMD are ~2200ms?
Trying to understand the variance on the AMD - if I go by the hash rate vs the Nvidias, it should be closer to 68% not 50%, and what is the deal with the shares taking so long to be accepted from this one card? Thanks

Bummer, but OK. I'll spit the cards up into two - AMD / NVidia and see what the pool reports.
OK, so as promised, I split the rig up into NVidia and AMD seperately to see what happens. Only NVidia submitted stale shares. I even went and ran the pairs as 1 x RX 470 and 2 x GTX 1050ti, each with a hashrate of ~28MH/s. Here is the strange one, in this setup (2 x Claymore instances, NVidia + AMD), the rig submitted less stale shares as when compared to a single Claymore instance with the cards mixed.. But it was not really stable. NVidia kept on restarting. I am back to the mixed setup where I have a 6 - 9% stale share rate for the past 12 Hours. Some rig info for the 28 / 28 test: 1 x RX 470, 1500 mem straps, memory OC to 2000MHz. 2 x GTX 1050Ti, +650MHz memory OC, - 100MHz CPU UC, 75% Power Latest Windows 10 Pro, Claymore excluded from Defender Core2Duo E8400, 4GB Ram, 16GB Virtual memory ~17% CPU Usage, 46% memory usage whilst login with TeamViewer Polly keeping an eye on things |

What does the -ethi parameter do? How does he work?
The readme says, this corresponds to the --global-work-size in official miner.
--cl-local-work Set the OpenCL local work size. Default is 64
--cl-global-work Set the OpenCL global work size as a multiple of the local work size. Default is 4096 * 64
Is -ethi 8 the same as these default settings?
what does -ethi 9 or 10 or 11, ... ?

Can someone please help or advise
Claymore doesn't show does not GPU temperature and fan status so I can't use fan and temrature related controls. Commands like -tt, -ttdcr, -ttli, -tstop, -tstart, -fanmax, -fanmin
RX 580 pulse 8 GB GPUs
Driver version 23.20.782.0
Driver date 20/10/2017
Radeon-Software-Crimson-Relive-Edition-17.10.2
MotherBoard B250 MINING EXPERT
Windows 10 ent edition x64
I am able to control fan and temprature via MSI afterburner
UPDATE Updated to radeon version 18.2.1, using Compute mode now. Good thing that hashrate gone up by 2 Mh/s each card. temperature and fan stats started showing fine until rig crashed. and now after the reboot same issue - can't see fan and temperature stats. seems like some sort of bug in claymore. Can someone advise if they have seen the problem? Has someone seen the issue? Is there some setting in driver? Update 2 Issue: temperatures and fan settings break with latest amd drivers once rig crashes for some reason (example power outage) Finally found the issue listed here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2574589.40it's AMD drivers causing the issue, claymore needs to update the code to get over the issue. It's pain in nack that claymore can't control fan, temp or OC settings |
