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

[Viaggiatore]

Try setting the Windows power plan to 'high performance'.

Thanks, but my rig is definetely not going to sleep. It seems to me that just internet connections is dropped (I have both ethernet and wifi for redundancy). Seems both of them are killed for apparently no reason...

It doesn't have to go to sleep. Your power plan power management mode could be setting the network adapters to power savings mode, which is why you should set the power plan to high performance. If you want to do it manually, under power options select 'change advanced power settings' and verify the network adapters are set to 'maximum performance'.

It was already in "maximum performance". BTW listened to you and now set to high performance, also unchecked "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" on both the network devices, hoping it won't break WOL/WOW

For some reason, since the last windows update, i can no longer use the #0 card, it hangs out setting the dag.
Has anybody experienced this same problem?
I can't go back the windows version, so i'll move to linux (already have a lot of linux rigs so it's not a big problem) but i don't have the time right now, so i wanted to have it fully working for a few days more until the migration

Thanx guys!

Same thing happened to me.  Windows freezes when setting dag epoch on gpu0.  Problem is only on my TB85 rx580 rig with 4gb of system ram.  My TB250 rx570 rig with 8gb of system ram is fine.  Both are six-card rigs.

Work has been too busy so I haven't had time to troubleshoot.  Just used -di to turn off gpu0 for now.

If you figure something out plz let me know.

If anyone else has insight, please share.

To clarify, I did some very quick and rudimentary troubleshooting.  Ddu and clean install of aug23 blockchain driver.  Checked riser.  GPU0 appears normal in gpuz and msi AB.  No time atm to do much more.

I wonder if increasing virtual memory might help.  Or upgrading to 8GB system ram.

I don't want to just try something remotely bc if my rig freezes I won't be able to go to it in person to turn the PSU off/on for at least a few days.

Do u have a monitpr connected? Internal gpu enabled?

Yes igpu enabled and dummy plug connected to mobo dvid.

Never did fix my instability issue with 11.5 so I rolled back to 10.6 and it just churns away, except for the other night when I quickly realized the one 3GB card I have amongst the other 6 AMD cards wasn't creating the DAG. Some quick research and it of course led me to what Claymore mentioned.

I will say, setting -eres 0 got it back up and mining but correct me if i'm wrong, each time the DAG changes/increases I'll get a miner/machine reboot? At least that's what's happened so far when it jumped from 177 to 178 or whatever it was. I'm assuming that's because the cards are not reserving the space. Looks like I'm going to have to swap out a 470 for the 1060.

What amd driver version are you using?

for me latest 18.3.4 drivers solved the instability..

[Tuca]

About 3gb cards, doesnt matter if we mine other coins, the DEV FEE from @claymore tries to mine ethereum and the program just keep doing that since it cant generate the DAG file for the 3gb cards.

[Vann]

-nofee will disable the dev fee and reduce performance by 2-3%. You can try that until the new version is released.

[igotfits]

i was told be someone to do this. can someone help me with making this happen for my NVidia. My NVidia is the 8th card the very last one.

Do you have -tt or -fanmin/-fanmax set? If yes, set it only for amd cards (from readme: for NVIDIA cards only temperature monitoring is supported, temperature management is not supported.), if no - more info is needed.

issue persist.
22:45:10:453   271c   NVML: cannot get current temperature, error 999 (an internal driver error occurred)
22:45:10:453   271c   NVML: cannot get fan speed, error 999 (an internal driver error occurred)
22:45:13:594   271c   NVML: cannot get current temperature, error 999 (an internal driver error occurred)
22:45:13:594   271c   NVML: cannot get fan speed, error 999 (an internal driver error occurred)

-fanmin 50 -fanmax 80 -tt -50 this is what i have in my line.

how do u set for amd only?

I Guess by trying to run 2 instances of Claymore miner, then in your line add/use -di options, check what are GPU indexes that is assigned for AMD and Nvidia

PhoenixMiner has an option to choose a devfee coin. You should check it out.

Increased paging file to 32000, still freeze.

just stumbled upon this now: https://github.com/tpruvot/sgminer/releases
"Allow to mine ETH without DAG requirement on nVidia cards and AMD
Beware: ETH requires cards with at least 1750MB of free memory.
tested ok on RX470, GTX960 and 1070"

Not sure how well it will perform or at all... you may also try zawawa's new gatelessgate sharp it's an interesting one (suppose to work with stock cards )

It looks like the x16 slot on the motherboard is just dead.  Switched cards, switched risers.  Mobo and Windows do not detect any device connected to the x16 slot.  Guess I'm rolling with 5x until I get a new board.

[Claymore]

v11.6:

- improved hashrate for weak Nvidia cards by about 1%.
- zero devfee for 3GB cards in Windows 10, same as for all 2GB cards.
- applied some tricks to increase available memory for 3GB cards in Windows 10 so you can mine ETH a bit longer.
- now you can press "y" key to turn on "Compute Mode" in AMD drivers for all cards (Windows only).
- Linux version: removed openssl library dependency.
- improved "-logfile" option, now you can use it to specify a folder for log files, use slash at the end to do it, for example, "-logfile logs\".
- added "-epoolsfile" and "-dpoolsfile" options.
- remote management: now "miner_getstat2" command also returns PCI bus index for every GPU.
- a few minor bug fixes and improvements.

Hi,
please submit your updated hashrates to
https://gpustats.com
Thank you!

[Metroid]

- zero devfee for 3GB cards in Windows 10, same as for all 2GB cards.

Very good.

what month/year  may be the end of 4GB cards around??

Hi guys , i have -tt -80 , fans run at about 80% ok thats fine but all fans are stopping for 5-10 seconds and then they keep spinning at 80 %
I think they should spinn all the time at the given fixed speed 80% with -tt -80 right?

Anyone else with same issue?

here is my bat

Code:

@timeout /t 10
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 ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555 -ewal WALLET -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://mine.nlpool.nl:5766 -dwal WALLET -dcoin blake2s -dpsw c=XVG -allpools 1 -tt -80 -dcri 48 -ethi 16 -ftime 5 -mport 0
