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

[Binary100100]

Hi,

I seem to have landed into some trouble ever since I had installed an SSD (not MVME) M.2 on my win10 rig. I installed win 10 on the SSD and increased the virtual memory to more 32 GB in a drive which doesnt have the windows installed (D drive and not C).

However the Claymore miner keeps throwing an error

"At least 16 GB of Virtual Memory is required for multi-GPU systems"

I am not sure where things are going wrong and the worst part is the hashrate on my RX580 Sapphire Nitro + 8GB is only 11 MH/s which is extremely annoying. I have two RX580 and two 1060s. My 1060s for now do seem to be doing okay at 20Mh/s.

What am I not doing right? Has anyone experienced this before? or does someone know how to fix this?

Are your AMD cards in compute mode or graphics mode?

I tried both.. and nothing worked Any idea what is causing this issue?

my rx 5700s are humming nicely at 50mhs each. but i wonder if they can pushed even further?  

Same here... Getting 51+ at 107w per card. Hoping once the BIOS lock is removed, we can adjust mem timings, lower the clock and achieve similar performance with a lower power draw. Also, these Navi cards run cool so lower db's from the fan. Anxiously waiting...

Same problem ... then you confirm that there is a bios lock for the rx 5700? Now I understand why I could not in any way lower the clock....

Hi guys
Yesterday i found very strange behavior of claymore v15.
virtual memory was set to 32Gb, i have 6 cards on this rig.they are rx 480, rx 570, rx 580 etc...
they were hashing at 30.6Mhz, 32.5Mhz etc....
Then i decided increase virtual memory to 52GB and i did it.Guess what happened??? my hashrate lowered to 19.0Mhz, 24.0Mhz, 14.0Mhz etc....only 1 card stayed at 32 Mhz.
Then i put back to 32Gb and it worked like before.
Who can explain this?

Hello everyone
I have a problem with showing GPU temperature and fan speed
I've been using Clayimore on my rig with 6x GTX 1070 for a while and it's worked fine so far.
I use Claymore v15.0, MSI Afterburner 4.6.2, Windows 10

Now I use old Nvidia drivers (concretely 430.86 ) but when I put in new drivers ( i tried with 441.66, 441.87 and 442.19 )
Clayimore starts working fine but does not show me the GPUs temperature and fan speed

When I run Claymore with new drivers I'm getting the message " NVIDIA NVML library not found, temperature monitoring for NVIDIA GPUs disabled "

When I restore old drivers everything is back to normal, again I see GPUs temperatures and fan speed
Why I dont have the GPUs temperature and fan speed ?
Where am I doing wrong ? what's the problem ?

Please help

I just watched a video from Red Panda Miner using Phoenix miner to achieve 61MH/s with a 5700 XT. I hope that Claymore can find some of those optimizations for his miner..

Is Claymore dead? No further development?

Hi everyone,

I'm getting this error message since a few weeks:

Code:

Pool sent wrong data, cannot set epoch, disconnect

I've searched the web for a solution for this issue, they all say to update claymore, but since
I'm using v15.0 already this doesn't help. I've tried older versions aswell: same thing
One source mentioned to change the esm value, but that didn't help either.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

When I run Claymore with new drivers I'm getting the message " NVIDIA NVML library not found, temperature monitoring for NVIDIA GPUs disabled "

Try to make NVSMI folder in C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation and copy nvml.dll file from C:\Windows\System32 to the NVSMI

I just found this solution in some russian blog: https://www.cryptoprofi.info/?p=5362

Yes, that solved the problem !!!
I did everything by description and finally everything works again )
Thanks a lot

Which Algo/Coins will be more worth ful for me by 1050ti ?

Huge link to whattomine.com
Or you can try to use nicehash -> https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator

Yes, that solved the problem !!!

You are welcome.

This forum has been censored (guess from who). There was an answer to this post right bellow it which mysteriously disappeared. Mind what you write here. The Big Brother is watching you.

What is it that you are missing? If you have a suggestion for an improvement, why don’t you post it here?

BTW, is anyone aware of a way to control the software using an IOT temperature sensor?

My suggestion is quite obvious. NOT TO DELETE UNCONFORTABLE FOR CLAYMORE POSTS.

The real meaning of the deleted post was not that Claymore is physically death. Its meaning was that Clamore has stopped developping and that he is humbly accepting that competitors like Phoenixminer are 2% faster on the new emerged AMD Cards like Radeon RX 5700.

So my concrete suggestion for improvement is Claymore to increase the performance of his miner at least 2% on RX5700.

Dear Friends, I need your help.

I have 2 rigs (3 cards + 6 cards) RX 570-580. Before Claymore v15.0 (up to November), it used to work quite stable... I had 75 + 155 MHs.
After the update, it basically stopped working at all... Drivers seem to fall leaving me with 1-2 cards running at 10mhs and consuming 140W (according to afterburner).  I'm using Aug. blockchain drivers.

So... I tried everything I could to make it work... I literally ran out of ideas.  
- I tried different configurations, reducing mc and cc, changing power limits, voltage, etc. kind of tradeoff efficiency for stability.
- I tried to auto-restart the miner (and computer) and run via .exe and bat file. (I even tried restarting pc every 20min or so).
- different drivers didn't work as well...
- I tried changing RAM to 4, 8, 16 GB...
- configuring autoburner so I have ±100 W; stable. (gives around 22mhs per card, which is not much... and still, it crushes.

I set up everything... eave the rig... it works 15 hours in the best case scenario... (usually 2-3 hours) and then ... drivers fall leaving 2 cards 10mhs. then I reinstall drivers, config auto burner and everything repeats. I think I was able to detect the error once before the crash, the red line said: "OpenCL error, -36, cannot write buffer for DAG". I'm not sure if it's related to what happens but this what I was able to see.

At this time it's more like a hobby than earning. I call it 'my little tech club' - I'm trying to make it work because I enjoy when it works stable... I'm not a tech or hardware guy and I learned a lot through the course of these years. But past experience was very disappointing. The rig is not in my house and I can visit it once a week in the best,  I probably spend more money on gas (not counting my time).  

Please give me some ideas about what can I do to make it work stable... maybe with fewer MHS, but stable. I would appreciate any advice on how can I make it work.

Thanks, dear community!

Well, basicaly in that situatuon best practice is to disassamble the rig and start building from the beginning . Starting from 1 GPU on rig board. Geeting stability on 1 GPU then adding one by one.
ofcz if you are distant is looks not so convinient , but its most efficient way.  IMHO

Anyone still mining with RX480?
Still worthed? What are best settings and estimated speed to obtain please?

Just wanted to fire up some mining since it's actually an option again (long story) but i get same error

actually same for cc old miner, new miner, ella, rvn, etc,

I was running 6 months ago and believe a power shut down let an update into windows or something. Of course i forget all this till open pc, download latest version first
