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

[delle54]

And dual mining zec/zcl?

Dual mining the same algo is not possible.

[Socket54]

I am having a bit of trouble running a command in the bat for different intensity levels on 2 cards. One card runs a good bit higher in temp and i wanted to run that at a lower intensity level.

Can someone provide a example command line of how to run two cards on two different intensity levels?

This is what i try but it fails to work right...

ZecMiner64.exe -zpool zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -zwal miner -zpsw pwpw -r 0 -mport 0 -i 4,0 -1 3,1

Should i put the GPU # before the intensity or what am i doing wrong here?

What is this command -1 3,1 ?

i'm looking to add another another card to my measly one r9 280.  is there much difference in sols between a 470 8gb & 480 8gb card?

RX470 ~160 H/s
RX480 ~175 H/s

Claymore v7, intensity setting (-i) 4

Not too much difference yet. 470 is cheaper and more efficient than 480.

RX470-4GB --> 171H/s
draw 210W from the wall.
single gpu with intel core i3.
im sure if i put 5 gpus it will reduced a bit.

470 is more efficient at this time.

What is the hash rate on SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon R9 Fury ? should I go with 470 or NITRO Radeon R9 Fury

Thankyou for that.  I was thinking the 470 seems to be more cost effective at the moment but wanted to double check.  I will be replacing my 280 so will a 550w PSU be enough or should I upgrade that as well?

That PSU will be enough for the 2 cards.

And you can save money on the 470 if you choose the 4GB version. Nearly 0 difference in hashrate.

I'm running 4xRX470 with a 650w psu, using 450w @ the wall

Edit : with -cclock 1100 -mclock 2000 -cvddc 875 -mvddc 900 -tt 60 , and getting 140H/s per card

That is 450W for the 560 H/s. Or 0.8J/H. That is very efficient and more efficient than most CPUs as I can see.

I've never seen a 470 4GB that functions at higer than 1985 memory

i can use the slider upto 2100mhz but my system freeze.
its now mining at around 170H/s. sometime even higher, @175.
i hope it runs stable overnight.

Do not buy Fury for mining. They are too expensive and are not as efficient as the new generation cards.

Should i put the GPU # before the intensity or what am i doing wrong here?

-i   mining intensity. Possible values: 0...4. 0 - lowest intensity and CPU usage, 4 - maximal intensity. You can also specify values for every card, for example "-i 4,2,4". Default value is "4".


-i  4,2,4  would =  i 4 for gpu0, i 2 for gpu1, i 4 for gpu2

the gpu # are not used in the command   first i# is for gpu0, 2nd i# is for gpu1, and so on


ZecMiner64.exe -zpool zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -zwal miner -zpsw pwpw -r 0 -mport 0 -i 4,3



example  -i 3 = all gpu's intensity 3

if you have 10 gpu's  and you want them all except # 10 to run at intensity 3, and the tenth one to run at intensity 2 = -i 3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,2


I do not know how to hook 10 gpu's to one mobo?

-i 3,2,2,3,2,2    1832

If you mean coin name, check latest EthMan (v2.5), it already has "ZCash" option when you select coin name. Also you can type own coin name if you want.
If you mean MH/KH selection, use KH/s for ZCash, what's the problem?

I think miners must send to EthMan info about current algo it works.It would be extremely comfortable.

[aaronsace]

And dual mining zec/zcl?

That would be pointless; no benefit at all.
You do realise that you can mine both? Why would you want to do it at the same time?

This will mine either ZEC or ZCL depending on what is most profitable:

Ok Thanks.
What do you recommend? maybe RX480-8GB, RX470-4GB or something else?

I love my Fury !!
Powerlimited to 125W, they run at 220-230 H/s

And in France you can buy them new for 279€
I got 7 of them ... so much love to thoses cards !!

[leecher2k16]

You can achieve easy with and 480X over 200 H/s.

What you need? Not the 15.12 Driver A newer one. Runs stable for me.

And a custom MOD BIOS (I used them for ETH, also increase the ZCash Hashrate).

Ah i see, that is where i was going wrong. Figured i had to specify a value for each GPU as well. Thanks a ton.

Let's see some screenshots of that.

Power consumption ?
Because a good custom RX 480 8G are the same price that R9 Fury

If I remove the power limit and let the card go for 200W, they are hashing to 245-265 H/s depending of the cards
R9 Fury are also often better in others algo (32MH/s ETH + 800 SC at stock without powerlimit)

I'd like to see this myself

Fury cards are stupid power hungry though and most require 8 and six pin connectors

About new version: it takes more and more efforts to achieve more speed, so I cannot release new versions every day now. Also don't expect +50% speedup anymore, only 15-30% is possible in total.

Could you please add new unit for zcash hashes in your Remote Manager?

Again: dual mining is not possible for ZEC because it uses both GPU cores and memory intensively.

Big thanks Claymore for your work! We believe you will do your best!

P.S.
May be you will tell us when we could expect new version? in a day, in 2 days or may be till the end of this week? Huh

I think I will release new version in 2-3 days.

What about this GPU disabling/enabling? On one GPU we have all 0..9 enable/disable. Threads or what?

What do you mean exactly?
