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

[golden0707]

Yep I was just reading that most houses here have around 10amp fuses so I should be able to run 2 miners at 1250w max from 1 outlet..

I need to check out the wires though because I am not sure if they can handle it..

Just to clear things up though, If I have 10amp fuses and I put say 5 miners on different sockets around the house that can still affect the house wiring because of the massive load right?

I think in case of using one fuse 10A to protect one room you can hold 2 rigs 1250 W each in this room. 16A fuse - 4000W . But its max load of fuse. A little more and it will go off.

if you have different fuses for each room , you could load each room  accrording to calculation above.

Thank you for the information, much appreciated.

If you want all of the rigs in the same room , you probably need to contact your electrician/wireman.

Theoretically, any normal room should have 2 circuits, one for the airconditioning unit and the other one for your light fittings etc.

Now lets say you want to run 5 rigs. You woukd probably need in total 3 circuits in your room. 1 circuit can easily run 2 rigs.

Thanks Hu!k, ill have a chat to an electrician to confirm the wires and and fuses are ok.

Hello
This week I'm going to buy 2 new rig and I have some doubts.
I raise 2 options.
option 1:
7 GPUs Sapphire Radeon NITRO + Rx 470 4GB (I still do not know if I change for the 480)
1 PSU EVGA 1300 G2
24 m / h x7 = 168 mh / s in ETH 250 h / s x 7 = 1750 h / s in ZEC
option 2:
7 GPUs SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon R9 Fury 4GB
1 PSU EVGA 1300 G2 for 4 GPUs
1 PSU EVGA 1000 G2 for 3 GPUs
28 m / h x 7 = 196 mh / s in ETH 450 h / s x 7 = 3150 h / s in ZEC
All reference values are approx. In stock without bios mod.
Mobo: Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon
Processor: Pentium Processor G4500
Memory: HyperX FURY 2400MHz DDR4 Non-ECC CL15 DIMM 8
Currently it is cheaper to buy this mobo than the MSI Z97 Gaming 5 that is difficult to achieve and still supports 7 GPUs
I am in Venezuela, so the electrical or internet cost is not an important factor to take into account.
I would appreciate your opinions for which option to invest and if I should correct or change something.

my sapphire rx 480 8gb reference just runs @251

is flypool down?

12.4 has made 1 of my 5 rigs less stable than before, I was on a 300+ hour running streak before the upgrade too!

Nope flypool is rock solid

Also claymore 12.4 is solid for me since it came out

[Alehandros]

Yeah I'm not blaming 12.4, sometimes just disturbing a rig can have affects

Ran this version when it was released. 30 seconds later, instant freeze. Had to yank on the power cord and do a hard reset. Went back to 12.3

The EU server is working well.

THE SAME! But after every 30 minutes

What do you guys think is the best all around card for mining zec but also a little Eth every now and again I'm trying to add something to my 290/390 set up and get ride of my 270s

[pacers101]

Is it normal for the wattage to slowly increase the longer you run the miners. And is it normal for the wattage to go up and down in a range and not a constant rate. This happens on all algos but for ZEC it will start around 540 watts go between say 580 and 540 then range will slowly will go over 600 watts. My PSU is 600w EVGA bronze which  I is why I'm concerned. Is this normal or is there something wrong. Also is 550 to 600 watts normal for 3 470's, seems high.

i heard the 470s run at around 90 watts each. What CPU do you have? take one card out and measure again. The difference is what the card is using. High end CPUs may run at over 200 watts

The CPU is amd fx 6200, it is rated as 125w.  I was figuring 100 for each GPU and 125 for CPU should be 425 but it runs close to 600.

Guys I have a chance to buy a few rx470 8gb cards for just under $200 but I just found out that the new rx500 cards should be here next month.

Want to get some feedback from you guys on what you would do? Would you buy the 470s or wait for the new rx500 cards to check the speed?

Thanks

There is always going to be something new coming out.. the big thing, regardless of what the 500's may or may not do. when they are released the 400's will have a price drop.

Of course there will always be something new, I am just talking about the bandwidth that claymore was talking about....I think these new cards have double the bandwidth which could mean double the speed.

Just wanted to see if anyone had an opinion on this?

rumors claim the 580 8g reference card will be $199. Just wait a couple of weeks, The 480's will certain drop to the mid $100's. They are already all on sale at newegg
