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

[Assaro]

Hi guys,

the last 2 days was looking for optimal settings for R9 390/290 for max hash rate...  Is it possible or is this the max i can get?

Thanx in advanced for any recommendation...

Im mining with:

PC ---- mb: MSI Z97 G55 / CPU: i7 4790K  / 12GB Kingston hyperX1600 Mhz ram  / Win 7 pro 64bit

3x MSI R9 390 gaming 8 GB

each getting 179-184 MH/s stable, no problems

OC Settings with Grimson v16.10.3:

GPU clock:   +10% = 1144 Mhz
Power limit: +10%
Memory clock: 1650 Mhz


Next:
PC ---- mb: MSI Z97 Gaming 5 / CPU: Intel Pentium G3460  / 8GB Kingston hyperX1600 Mhz ram   / Win 7 pro 64bit

3x GIGABYTE R9 390 G1 WINDFORCE 2X Gaming 8GB

each getting 179-182 MH/s stable, no problems

OC Settings with Grimson v16.10.3:

GPU clock:   +9% = 1117 Mhz
Power limit: +9%
Memory clock: 1610 Mhz


and

PC ---- mb: MSI K9A2 Platinum 790FX  / CPU: AMD Phenom 9850  / 4GB DDR2 ram   / Win 7 pro 64bit

3x MSI R9 290 gaming 4 GB

each getting 149-153 MH/s stable, no problems (dont want to mod bios..)

OC Settings with Grimson v15.12:

GPU clock:   +9% = 1064 Mhz
Power limit: +9%
Memory clock: 1350 Mhz

Claymore V6:

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

I have removed my ether strapped bios from my cards since Claymore 5 release as I will tune my cards when I no more what best settings will be,with each new release cards are under more stress and I believe using ether mods will not be best for zcash mining,I am getting 159 to 164H/s with my 480 8G nitros  and same with my xfx 480 8G GTR but the xfx run  cooler in same conditions,xfx are just great with cooling,all have Samsung memory and -60 core with 1340 clocks memory 2100 I believe power usage will be around same as what ether is when cards are maxed out and miner is optimised

RX480 strapped & with 1350 -> 1400 clocks working pretty solid for me.

You might want to add what motherboard/cpu/ram/os your using.

The 290/x's speed varies a lot depending on RAM type. Some mine at 145/s and some +170/s. Yet these same cards mine ETH at identical speeds.

[citronick]

6xR9 380 periodically resets GPU0 speed, and the miner errors appear non-existent cards, with which it can be connected?

It's a bug, will be fixed in next update. Divide card number by 2.

How soon will be next update ?

Do you want more speed?

The R9 Nanos uses HBM - high bandwidth memory - and have the best improvement vs all my other types of cards.

v6 has tremendously taken advantage of this features in R9 series that the card posting nearly 200 H/s even better past 180s H/s of 390s.

RX480s however at best posting 130-140s H/s -- could you do your magic on the RX cards?

My rx 480s doing  ~165H/s with v6

130 H/s is too low for an rx 480

These are 5 x RX480's .. They way past the 140 mark.. (zero gpu errors)

linux version?

1st page: There are builds for Windows x64 only. No Linux. No 32-bit support. No NVidia support.

you are so kind, thank you, I can read but what I would welcome is linux version instead of to buy windows os as you did for sure

[dextronomous]

hi claymore,


i have one 7950 that has not been able to mine any z cash with you're miner, another one mines as hell, this one doesn't starting at v1. all versions did not mine
this card, single setup dual setup, this card mines a lot of other coins with no problems, is there another release on the way, like v7,

the v6 miner made the card started mining with 0.25 H/s while in the same system another does 120 H/s

but previous versions this card could not mine at all, just froze the system, recovered display settings,

genoil does work with this card, and gets way less H/s on his miner,

i have latest amd drivers, and also tried this card with 15.12 drivers. nogo

It has been stated multiple times. There will be no Linux version.

interesting...

according to this site the current reward for zcash is 7.4 zec per block... a few hours ago i read somewhere that the reward was 5.something zec.. it's increasing so fast..

https://explorer.zcha.in/statistics/network

I wonder when approximately the reward will reach 12.5...

There was a post earlier about someones config being modified by a outside source.  I have a feeling this may be something like that.

hi dolinskii,

i see 15.8 catalyst never had that one, i see in latest gpu caps viewer, i have a 8950, and a 7950

triplle dissipation 3gb cards both identically , but that app sees it as a 8950, then again, in windows
its working all the way it should i guess, mining all other alts,. crossfire etc, displays working but not with 16.11.3

and with clays v1.to.v6 with that one card. should i try installing 15.8

[delle54]

Please with the new version change also the name of thethread with (Only Windows)  because 70% of the post are "where to doenload the linux version"

Good idea, but you can do that yourself.

whats the watts?

If I under clock I can do .8 watts an H/s which means 825 would be about 660 watts

So I know you are not under clocking and under volting.. so do you use 750 watts whole system at the wall to get the 825

or do you use 850 watts at the wall to get the 825 H?

I can set my fans at 50% and run cool and quiet.

do you set your fans at 85% and run hot and loud?

mind you I am not being critical more like curious.
