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

[Flickspeed]

I see some posts that V8 reached hardware limits and there is no way to improve speed anymore. It's not true.
I'm working on new version with another good speedup, though it takes more time and efforts.

And whats the point?? High temperatures, more electricity and same profit, cuz all are with the new miner. Your new versions are not helpful, do you know that? Also some cards have really bad speed

That is totally wrong

@Claymore, don't let troll anger you. You did sofar a very good job and there are always idiots and morons greedy and noobs that aren't aware of what hard work and deserve something out of it means.
So keep the good work..you know the great majority of people respect and enjoy your work.

There is a saying. You know you did something good..something great..but the proof is the more haters you have the better your work really was.

Wrong because?? My cards were at 60C, now are at 75C. The profit is same! Tell us your point!

@ioginx Your bad math cant make me a troll

My miner does not support Linux, Nvidia, CPUs. They will not get any speedups from my miner.
Though I'm ready to stop development if most of people think so. It's not a problem for me at all. Make a vote somewhere to see results.

I hope there will be a few more new releases. If there is someone who dont like that, just dont use the latest version also you can use older versions.
Good work Claymore, hope new version will be released soon.

There is no need of votes, this topic is full of people with 2-3 cards who cant calculate anything. We all know the vote result! You have the bell, sheeps just following

Lol @  butthurt rx 480 and 470 users.. I also have some 480's but i didn't dispose my 280x's.

Just bought a 290x and going to buy a 390 next week...and damn the 280x's are getting scarce.

Go claymore! Bury those cpu botnets.

you should actually be thankful to claymore that you getting the same profit. If you factor in the price of ZEC that keeps dropping , difficulty that keeps rising. If it wasn't for claymore we would all be falling behind on zcash and than you would end up complaining that claymore hasn't release a new miner to keep up. If you unhappy with a newer miner than just don't use it, but dont post idiotic comments and spoil it for everyone else that appreciates all of claymores efforts in his development and are eagerly awaiting v9.

@Claymore
I think you should concentrate the further development only on the recent platforms , such as Polaris and Pascal.
Let those retro tahiti and hawai back to their graveyard , were they came from...

Try to answer yourself why diff is rising, I will not do this for you!

so you one of those people that think that a faster miner is the only reason that difficulty is rising . not the additional hardware purchased as well?
so my extra 2 x 6 card rigs dont contribute to the difficulty ? dont be naïve , everyone is in it to make some extra cash. just dont piss off the developer who is actually helping us keep up or move forward. typical that you wouldn't mention the price drop of 93% since zcash was released.

[elzium]

It will rise until its profitable, no matter what one or another developer does. Would be foolish to hope that code will be unoptimized forever and gpu-s will profit while idling, then it would be easier to build asic on that and oh what a cry will then be about shitty miners that are unable to use gpus at max.

It is rumored that there are private miners having far better speeds than what we have publicly. Any increase would be good.

[Taxidermista]

maybe lower yr fee now you re a rich man & u accumulated a lot of money from years ..
   
or u prefer continue to pick up more money like Uncle Scrooge & all those rotten rich people in the world ..

So you can earn 100$ a month instead of only 97.50$. Don't you want to pay a cofee to Claymore?

[spaolo]

Donn't listen to them Claymore, continue with your outstanding job if you can. I am sure 1000's of people are too busy to mine to say THANK YOU and those who complain are amateurs trying to run something they don't or won't understand.

Thumbs up!

1. compute unit in CGN 1.3(RX 480) is more efficient the same in CGN 1.1 (R9 390) on 15% mostly because of the prefetch and cashing.
2. RX 480 has direct acces to ISA, but you should write you code on lower levels to take advantage from that
3. in games RX 480 is able to compensate brute force of the CGN1.1 by optimizations in geometry units like excluding the poligons of the zero sizes, because of the new index cash end etc.

So the question is can we get same +15% in math tasks if we use high level languages? I thinks its hard to achive if its possible at all. Cahes and prefecth are not able to give big advantage, and maybe only low level direct access can give something, but then you have to write special version just for RX470/480 cards.

But again, RX480 are very good from power point of view. I can take 190-195H/s with 0.95-0.975V voltages if i dont care about power costs, and 180H/s with 0.92V!,temps below 60C if I need power efficiency. Also you can use cheaper PSU for the rigs with RX480.

And again, I wouldn expect that RX480 will perfom close to 390X, till someone will start to develop special miner for RX480

no offence but what version of Claymore miner are you using? v8? Why? Basicly you are going against yourself and your statements....

every1 wants a higher profit, but for me, im glad that the profit is at least stable more or less....  

@claymore - V8 works rock stable for me more than 70 hours great work.... if you are able to develop next version, just do it, most of the ppl are glad for your work and pay the fee... GL

Time to maintain your cards, and that means blow clean them from the dust that they have sucked in from 24h mining. You will see them back at 65C. If you do your math right you will also factor in the ZEC exchange rate.

The point is that you might be stupid or you own private nVIDIA big mine or you are Linux miner so you are afraid that you will lose a portion of the profits from stronger Claymore Windows miner.I have not forgotten that there is a private nVIDIA miner from the start. Written by DJM insensitive and sold to the owner of a large mine. Do you know that Nicehash miner with nVIDIA 1070 has 230 Sols / s?Perhaps the DJM perfected more speed for his private buyer?It's not all that simple, nor black - white, sir.

You've done a very great job Mr. Claymore!
Please don't stop. Keep improving!
I & I'm sure many others in the community also highly appreciate your great contributions to the crypto community!

Keep up the great work!!!
God bless you!!
