Claymore's ZCash/BTG AMD GPU Miner v12.6 (Windows/Linux)

[snakey]

someone upload the miner for us all....

[Hotmetal]

Download links are empty. Could you fix it?

+1 Claymore, it's empty!

If i had to guess, either the licensing is being fixed or code functions are being rewritten or binary is being packed to prevent further auditing.
Take your pick

[fredeq]

Sounds to me more like professional jealously.

Absolutely not. Some users discovered it and simply told me about it: https://forum.z.cash/t/silentarmy-v3-now-a-full-miner-multi-gpu-stratum/3580/629

This cryptomined fellow is like a Spanish Inquisition.
Very aggressive to put as much black PR as he can on claymore...

[adamvp]

mega folder empty
google drive limit reached :S

[zawawa]

I downloaded the whole folder right after the initial report of copyright infringement, just in case.
I don't know what to do with this, though...

[doktor83]

Give Claymore time to respond. All he has to do is include a copyright notice in his miner, and he will be compliant with the MIT license. That's all.

OR he can change the function names and variable names and problem solved hahahahhaaa

[snakey]

can someone with default bios tell what speed you getting on 470 8gb and someone with moded 470 8gb please (New 1.1v)

thanks

Upload it to Mega or Dropbox and share.

Any idea why 370 is faster than 380 (38 vs 30) and why
470 8GB is faster than 480 8GB? (44 vs 41)

set powerlimit +20 on the 480

[aikklond]

I am only getting 36 sols on unmodded rx 470 nitro. is this normal?

yep, same as me.

No change at all. Not surprised tbh as I am not even hitting 100% TDP
Still havent modded those 480

Can anyone confirm that 470 8GB does more than 480 8GB(41) ?

Also the hash on 370 is insane... why 380 is hashing so low(30) ?

[Claymore]

I had to remove v1.0 and v1.1 from google drive and mega, because I was pointed that I used a small part of mrb's work.
It will take up to 24 hours to revise my code and create own implementation, then I will upload updated version.

Details are:

Code:

mrb> Claymore, you took and reused my blake.c code and didn't include the copyright notice as required by silentarmy's MIT license:
mrb> https://forum.z.cash/t/silentarmy-v3-now-a-full-miner-multi-gpu-stratum/3580/640
mrb> I request that you cease infringing by:
mrb> (1) either including the full "License" section of silentarmy's README.md along with your distribution of your zcash miner,
mrb> (2) or stop using my blake.c code.

Of course this is only ~100 lines of code, and we are all lazy programmers and I understand why you did it :) but you ought to do the right thing.

Oh, you are correct, I really missed this point. I was in a big hurry to release first version asap, so I concentrated on main Wagner's algo, 
blake is not interesting for me at this point since it takes only 10% of total GPU time and it's trivial in fact, blake algo is not that I can call something new. 
But to make some start point asap I included your blake.c into my sources and then forgot about it and did not create my implementation. That's what happens if you are in a hurry. 
It is very unpleasant situation for me, I will do the following:

1. I remove v1.0 and v1.1 versions of my miner. In fact, I already removed current packages from google drive and MEGA, I will upload updated versions soon. 
In next version I will remove your blake.c from my sources.
2. I apologize, it's only my fault that I used this part of your code. I was not going to do it in public version.
3. I want to send you some compensation from my ZEC dev fee if you don't mind, just send me your ZEC address.
4. I'm not going to hide my fault in any way, I will post this message in my miner thread in first post.

Will be zcash Claymore miner for CPU?

My 480's are doing 45-50 sol/s with tighter memory timings.

Mild to quote the entire forum? make it yours 1 offer on page 1? fucking idiot

[adamvp]

Is there any way to switch to the second pool on the list?
If I press 'R' it goes to first pool even if first pool is active...

Doesn't look like aggression to me though..

Not even jealousy..


Just facts, that aren't completely true.

I went ahead and setup Claymore's 2.5% fee miner and ran it.

My 2x480's in my test machine never got over 47 sol per card. (Let it run for an hour).
While the Silent army one modified by Nerdralph never got lower than 48!! Even spikes to 56Sol.  
Also let it run for an hour to get a better look on the pool results. And yup, those were even higher then the reported sols as well.

So basically, Claymore didn't take the silent army kernel and implemented it, he took it, made it slower and put a big ass fee next to it and made all of you people think that you hit the jackpot, haha  

And now laughing his ass off watching his "Sols" go up in all those pools   and thinking : "Suckers...."

 


Edit: I have to admit, after reading the convo between Mrb and Claymore, respect that he admitted his fault and doesn't try to hide it. Kudo's.
