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

[jokelo]

Does anybody know, if it's normal when I start the miner, the shares are found at a really fast rate, then it slows down drastically. Hash rate is the same, but doesn't the rate or quantity of shares mean how much you mine?

Oh and Claymore, hats off, 280x -178 H/s

Pool diff will go up depending on how much hashrate you throw at it.

This is to not spam the pool with shares if you have a big hashrate but payouts are the same.

What if one would constantly restart the miner, or write a code for that?) Would the profit rise?

You are just throwing more low value shares even with restarts, so NO.

Ok thanks for the explanation, guys!

I do not understand why everyone is happy? with each new version of the miner, money is less and less !!!

It is not about profitability, it is more about shady business.

Claymore is only giving home miners what those big farms with private kernels are doing already.

This is all about claymore vs 'big boys'.

maybe it's claymore vs claymore ?
Don't know, maybe he had a fast miner from the start that he sold to those big boys ?

You never know.

But this seems more like personal vendetta to me.

Sure claymore had inbox full of offers. Looking at hawaii power consumption and equihash nethash if is safe to say we have seen nothing yet.

Big increase for the older 280x.  390s at 230sol/s.  niiiiiiiiiice.  175sol/s 470.

Which driver, which OS?

[mettalmag]

v7.0:

- improved speed by about 15-25% (depends on card model). About 230H/s on stock 390X.
- added "-benchmark" option.

Is there any chance to upgrade miner versions using remote manager? Updating 2 or 3 miners is easy, but in case of big farm it takes lots of time.
I'm not complaining or something you have super speed and great miners, but this option would make it even better! Thanks!

[fr4nkthetank]

for the 470s, its latest amd drivers and win10, 280x its win7 with 16.something drivers (not latest but recent).  so far the new drivers from AMD actually work well, which is a refreshing change.

I can't say nothing...
This version 7.0 is THE BEAST!
And no doubt the maker of this beast is THE BEST!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! 1000x

And without the new versions there would be no more money left for us.. all money would be eaten up by botnets & private giant farms...

Just dowloaded the v7.0 but if i start them after 5 minutes the internet falls out and see socket can't connect 10054 The internet normaly is working because i can with the phone on the wiffi, Is there something that i can do about this isue? I'm mining on -i 2 because that works the best for me at least in v6.0 where it was 34hours stable @ -i 4 my rig crashed always with the thread stuck in device driver also in v6.0

Everyone want's a piece of it. You go out shopping for bigger forks but so did everyone else.

Hi all,

Damn claymore, mega hash increase on my R9 290, went from ~127 H/s to ~183 H/s. This is why I don't mind paying the fee, you deserve it.  

Developing software usually is a thankless deed that requires monumental amounts of time and effort. Anyone who says otherwise has no idea what they're talking about and anyone who complains about having to pay a small fee for these extreme hash rate increases (even if they used the -nofee flag, the hashrate is much higher than other miners), they should find another miner to use.

Cheers Claymore,

It's all a hoax, Claymore has much more power and does not want to release it, it is believed that we are happy with updates to the drop every 2 days

1 r9 290 = 1000 h/s  183 is shit!!

And botnets and private giant farms can't use Claymore miner for religious reasons, so... we win, they lose.

You could use the "Execute reboot.bat" option in the miner manager to do it with something like this:

taskkill /f /im ZecMiner64.exe
robocopy \\server\share\claymore C:\claymore /XF config.txt
shutdown.exe /r /t 00

I haven't tested this but it should get you close.  I'm assuming reboot.bat goes on each mining rig.  Make sure each rig is logged in as a user with access to the network share.  /XF config.txt skips the config file so you don't lose your worker names.

[Arthur38]

Any idea why I get 20% drop on flypool (hashrate remains consistent on the console) ?

commission 2 - 3% is common in everyday business.. it's no big deal...if developer make a lot of money out of it.. they deserve it.... everybody can build rigs if they have enough money to buy the components needed for it... no special skills or qualification needed to be able to make a rigs... even a 6th grade schoolboy can do it... but very very very few people that can make good software and make those rigs work in the best possible way... it's a rare skill / talent... rarity has its own price..

botnets & private giant farms..they have claumore version 15

They don't need to use it.

It makes sense, but in that case I will have to update config files anyway. I'm thinking about active directory there are 78 host PCs already..

Very nice work man!!! awesome speed!

thanks!
