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

I posted this in the sgminer thread as well but didn't get a response:

Hello all.  I recently did an xmr test run with sgminer-gm on a 5 rx470 rig, win7, 16.9.2, and everything works fine.  When I switch back to wolf (xmr) or claymore (zcash), those miners no longer have control over fan speed.  I also cannot use watttool or amd settings to control fan speeds.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I did a clean driver removal and reinstall but the fan speeds are still locked at the previous setting when I first ran sgminer-gm.  Help would be greatly appreciated. 

edit: I added auto-fan and temp-target to the conf file instead of a static fan speed and now it seems okay.

update: After switching back to claymore zec miner, there is still no fan control and the speeds are strange.  The speeds are stuck at 40,40,65,65,50.  Seems really odd.

update 1/1/2017:  If I set the fan to a static speed on sgminer before opening claymore, the fans have a minimum speed from my sgminer config file, but claymore's miner and other utilities cannot modify the fan speed. 

Does anyone have any ideas on how to re-enable fan control with mining software besides sgminer?

Are you closing sgminer or any of the other miners that you are switching from/ to?  Usually only one program can control the API at a time.

So, any reason to move from working 9.2 on rx 470s and 280xs?

No reason

No reason to upgrade!

Thaks to all for the answers. Staying on 9.2. One week solid mining without crash.

If you're stable, don't upgrade.  If you're not, upgrade.  9.3 is supposed to be more stable.   I had 2 problematic rigs that are more stable with 9.3 vs 9.2

9.2 works flawlessly for me and my twins >_<

[Xiadas]

the 9.3 changed NOTHING on my cards. old or newest...

Did you use the 15.12?

[PanneKopp]

15.12 does not work with RX4x0 ^^

v9.2/3 works fine with driver v16.10.3 (win7_64)
on RX-4x0 and R9 390.

v9.3 gives slightly more hashes for the price of using more CPU and Power - is stable.

I found the 9.3 is about 3-5% faster than the 9.2 for my R9 390.

HI all)
what's the most profitable Crimson for only RX4xx?

[omshree]

Ok, Nvidia is officially beat Amd with EWBF miner, no linked to nh. Over 460 with 1080s. Claymore, you gotta make some magic on modern fijis, or only option is to wait to vega 10, and see what they can, any other case it much more worthy to build nvidia rigs as it is for today.

There is a problem with Zclassic mining. With allpools 1 option at zcl.coinmine.pl when miner tries to mine devfee it tries to coonect with ssl, but there is no ssl support at zcl.coinmine. How i can avoid this?

zcl.suprnova.cc has ssl port

you use MSI Afterburner

v9.3 and "-allpools 1" will work.

Never tried it with Polaris cards.  I'll look at it today.

Yes, even after a reboot the issue persists.

9.2 is stable not upgrading to 9.3

[rozsada]

after reinstalling OS win7 my miner sees only 4 of 6 gpus.
Why?
Can anybody help me?

[suggsy89]

9.2 is stable not upgrading to 9.3

Same here, I feel 9.3 is slower for RX series.

Claymore said 10.0 will be faster. So better to wait.

I have to use v8.0 on some rigs due to the power surge issue, I'd like to use SSL as the reported hash rate is better, but v8.0 doesn't support SSL. Any ideas?
