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

[maxmad_x]

Awesome work again Claymore.

I'm getting 130~140 sol/s across all 9 RX480.

4 of my 290x average about 125 sol/sm, touching 130 sol/s. 3 others give over 130 sol/s, sometimes touch 140 sol/s. Consistent performance difference between the 4 and the 3 at identical clock speeds. All 7 cards have 390x memory controller BIOS mod, the 3 faster cards just all happen to have Hynix RAM and the other 4 Elpida RAM. I was having this same performance difference on older Claymore versions and SilentArmy too. Even though I have tightened the Elpida timings a lot. Can only guess something about the Elpida RAM cards is holding them back. Something other than just plain memory straps

Hi For RX480 what mod are you using besides straps ? Whats your power consumption?
Your results look great.
I have 6 MSI RX480 4G gaming x (hynix) and 7 RX480 reference 8G (Elpida)

Not bad

[olcaytu2005]

Noticed something interesting I have 2 rigs x5 rx480 8G nitro with memory straps and x5 rx480 8G  gtr black edition, normally nitro rig performs better by around 40 s/s all in but with latest release my GTR rig is faster by around 15 s/s all in both have Samsung memory,first time I have seen stock bios faster with a miner.

I have explained this, was experiencing same thing with optiminer last few days. Seems like core needs to be higher and tigther to memory with the latest changes.

No, scroll down to download links.

sorry, my mistake.

[delle54]

A workaround for rigs with mixed cards (Polaris and old cards): start two miners with "-di" option, one for Polaris cards and second for other cards. Use "-mport 0" option to disable port for remote management and avoid red message in second miner.
I will fix it soon.

Yeah, great.

- PC1 RX480 130-140 H/s (AMD CPU 3%)
- PC2 RX480 130-135 H/s R9 280X CU II 95-100 H/s (i5 Pentium CPU 3%)

All stock settings.
Miningpoolhub shows ~ double Hashrate.

I'm going to sleep now. When I wake up, the world may be a better place

Just slept for a few hours and WOW!!!

I didn't expect anything else from Claymore

P.S. CPU-Mining an Altcoin such as XMR at the same time is not a good idea, because it reduces the Hashrate significantly.

Version 5.0 first crash after  ~2 Hours! , Hard reset

GPU: 4x RX 480 Nitro+ 4GB
Board:H81 PRO BTC
RAM:8GB
OS: Windows 10


please make this more stable!

Even at lower memory clocking results are pretty much same. I am using 1875 for stable performance. I was getting crashes at 1950 (MSI RX480 4G gaming x hynix). Should work for you similar way. Just a bit memory underclocking should make it stable

Tonga and Pitcairn not working in this release .... only Ellesmere.... Please check that Claymore and thank you for another fine release looking forward to mine with your software

May be a problem in your setup?

1750 strap to 2000, then clocked to 1325/2150, that's it, dead simple. Don't know wall power consumption as I'm using my reader to keep an eye on my 290x rig instead, that's pulling just over 1400w for 900 sol/s. But I'd guess somewhere in the region of 950~1000w as I'm pushing the cores quite high. Mining Eth at 1125/2150 the same rig uses 810w. This is for the 6 card rig. 3 of the cards are in my main PC.

[maxmad_x]

Working on all 13 cards 115-125H/s

[Lucky - Luciano]

As I see it, this is miner slower than the "Optiminer/Zcash GPU miner v0.3.1: 175Sol/s R9 Nano, 135S/s R9 290, 120S/s RX470". I have 6 x Sapphire RX480 NITRO OC+ and my  hashrate with Claymore miner is slower :

[mewhoyou]

RX 480 = 135 H/s with i2
RX 470 = 120 H/s with i2
RX 460 = 60 H/s with i2

RX 480 = 135 H/s with i0 Gpuz = 103W
RX 470 = 130 H/s with i0 Gpuz = 80W
RX 460 = 55 H/s with i0 Gpuz = 45W

Strap Memory at 1500

No other overclocking done yet.. will be able to push additional 10% to 20%.

Claymore another awesome work...

what does that mean?, i m runing 270's 380's doing great now

Core clock 1325 is pretty high. Power consumption must be through the roof. But thanx for sharing. I am using
1325 for 1325-1450-1500
1500 for 1625-1750
1625 or 1750 for 2000 depending upon the stability.

Power consumption per card 75w (GPU-z) + 50W PCB = 120W/card
Gives me around 115 on an average. (i5-6600 (3 cards)  avg 125H/s , G4400 (4 cards) and G3258 (6 cards) avg 115H/s)

Hey,

Any idea why would the card that is on usb riser and in main pci slot(biggest one) perform ~40% worse than other 5 cards? All on usb risers, 6x 480 4gb. First card making 65 while others are all around 120.
On eth, some time ago, it performed like other cards.

Did you reboot the system? sometimes I have that issue . one card just lags even on ETH .. 5 MH while others run at 29MH . Just reboot. Something is funny with driver and the thread gets stuck may be. I reboot using power cut for these instances rather than shutdown regularly. Hard power cut off on should get it kickstarted.

[Meech]

Do you need to set difficulty in .bat file like you do Eth?
Still receiving high latency shares 500ms no matter what pool or port I try. ( seems to happen after first rejected share ).

What are the model of your cards, i2 seems to be working better for me.

[adaseb]

So i0 or i1 or i2 all seem the same.

-i does nothing now???

For me there is a difference.
