over night results using -i 2 best rig at 119H/s is the asus z170a using an i5 6500t worst rig at 108H/s is the biostar z170a using an i3 6300t the asrock h81 is at 113 H/s using an intel i5 4570s the asrockz170 extreme 3 is at 115 H/s using an i7 6700t What does it all mean? I suspect to run at -i 2 you need an i5 . I also have virtual memory set at 32000-64000 on all rigs.  |

I made the change , following your "how to" post, but didn't notice any change in hashrate. What should I expect setting virtual memory to 32k-64k ? Thank you |

Hey Aries... what kind of bump did you get on your MSI 470 rig using v5.0? over 100 H/s now I would assume? Could you also tell me what effect v5 had (if any) power draw and GPU temps? I am managing my rig remotely so i need to be careful with changes as I only have someone checking it for crashes twice a day and don't want to risk long down-times or really even get it running too hot while I am away. With V4 my GPUs were running about 59-60 degrees with minimal fan usage. Thanks for any results you can share! |

Thank you maybe no difference at all. it uses vm when: A) your system ram is small like a 4gb ram stick B) your system cpu is weak like a pentium g1840 in an asrock h81 mobo @GabryRox my numbers are for 4 rigs with 15 cards So when I had the pentium in my asrock h81 with a single 4gb stick adding the vm did a small boost 2-4% When and I still do have an i3 in my biostar z170a it adds a little boost. claymore 5 uses more power. 8.7 amps at 240 volts doing 1.1k H/s is now 9.2 amps at 240 volts doing 1.7k H/s but this is with -i 2 I am switching to -i 1 today. |

I'm using ASrock H81 with G1840 and 8GB Ram.
But not noticed real difference in my case.
By the way, how many GPU can I put in a H81 without Risers ?
I have a free H81 empty, and looking to make a cheap RIG with it and maybe some Rx470.
I hope it's not too late to ROI this one.

The H81 has only one X16 slot. It has 5 X1 slot. So you have to buy 5 risers to make it an efficient system. |

I have a unused IBM DPS 2000w server supply (from BTC mining).
How you guys would you use it to power a GPU mining RIG ?

over night results using -i 2
best rig at 119H/s is the asus z170a using an i5 6500t
worst rig at 108H/s is the biostar z170a using an i3 6300t
the asrock h81 is at 113 H/s using an intel i5 4570s
the asrockz170 extreme 3 is at 115 H/s using an i7 6700t
What does it all mean? I suspect to run at -i 2 you need an i5 .
I also have virtual memory set at 32000-64000 on all rigs.
I will try today with -i 1 and -i 2 on my i5 and i7 rigs Thank you, Phil! |

@philipma1957 About the rx 480 cards which one do you use the 4GB or the 8GB?
Thanks
Well any deal I find. So if I find a cheap 4gb good if I find a cheap 8 gb good. Mostly now I buy cheap rx 470 4gb. I get some as low as 170 this,is,a cheap price. I also found a rx 460 I may get. Has anyone done rx460s with claymores zcash? How much Hash do you get with 4GB & 8GB? I mean is there a big difference |

RIG004 6 x MSI RX470 Big Changes: With the v5.0 -i 0 I was getting about 660Sols Wow! that is insane! Almost 2x hash rate on same power draw! I was hoping that this was gonna happen since it seemed like Claymore was concentrating more on the 390/290's first. Now... if the price of ZEC would just come back a bit lol. Thanks for the info... well worth the slight risk of managing the upgrade remotely. |

Here is the updated RIG. There was a 5 degree reduction with lid installed. Ave Watt on MSI Afterburner = 65W Watts at the wall = 768W Amps at the wall = 6.46A Ave Temp on MSI Afterburner = 50C ZEC Mining Ave = 700 SOLs (Claymore's v5.0)  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1676763.new#new |

On the 470s i run -i 0 All rigs use a Celeron G1820 4-8GB Ram + 16GB virtual memory set on all rigs. I have no issues with slow gpus. Maybe the trouble start with really big virtual memory settings ?  1 x 280x 6 x 470 4GB 13 x 480 8GB The 280x card pushes over 100 on stock bios/settings, crazy bang for the buck  It got some random crap fans ziptied to it because the originals died during DRK mining years ago. |

All rigs use a Celeron G1820
What is the gain with -i 0 and -i 2 for RX 480? |

I'm wondering why you are all rushing to mine ZCash. It find it less profitable than Ethereum. Moreover Flypool is abosultely not giving me what I should get.

I am at Nicehash mining ZEC for BTC. ~25% lower powerdraw than ETH I am doing more profits from ZEC on a daily basis for sure. |

Both Whattomine and NiceHash calculator give me Ethereum a lot more profitable. There would even be a 3$ gap for me between them. That might be related to my configuration, but in my case Ethereum is a lot more profitable. I'd go for NiceHash given the pain it would save me, but considering that it doesn't work on my Nvidia rig, I had to ignore that option. |
