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

[Qutmin]

I tried on Tahiti and Pitcarin cards miner versions 12.3 and 12.4. Speed is 2-3% more on 12.4, but 12.3 and 12.4 not stable neither lowing intansity not using an "-old 1" option. Different versions of drivers not stabilize 12.3 and 12.4 miners too.
Version 12.2 is the most stable version for GCN1 cards with any intansity or drivers, but slower than 12.4 version.

Claymore, would you make a new version with speed of 12.4 and stability of 12.2?

I think you can reduce the speed of the GPU.

If I do that speed became less than without reducing OC in 12.2.

Out of interest, how stable are your claymore miners?

I have ran mine for 16 days straight without restarting - would it be an idea to restart my rig or just let it be?

Rig consists of 6 x RX480

I just posted a new mining rig build howto. This one for RX470's and Ethosdistro running Claymore miner. All the steps, from ordering, to setting up BIOS, to configuring Claymore on EthosDistro:

Is Claymore planning a new release guys?

The miner is already very fast. Difficult to improve speed any more.

The miner is already very fast. Difficult to improve speed any more.

But it's need to improve stability.

Ive had zero problems with stability with the miner itself. The only time something goes wrong it's because of me (oc to much)

Keep up the good work claymore!

I tried stock frequinces on 270X and 280X. Same result - miner 12.4 unstable. I read this thread - most 280X on 12.4 unstable. This means that 12.4 need to improve stability.

Running rx480 here with 4 rigs and a few fury's all stock settings have not had any stability issues with these rigs running Claymore 12.4 previous releases were stable for me also with rigs needing no management,hope this info helps

I can confirm your findings with 280x, I reverted back to 12.0, now I can run at higher intensity, I don't have to use -r 60 to reset miners due to falling hashrates.  I tried the -old 1 but it didn't do it for me.

Try 12.2 - for me it gives more speed than 12.0 and stable.

Thanks, I concur.  About 2% faster, and so far, stable.

Is there an option to show power consumption of individual GPU?

Not in the software.

msi afterburner can. It can even log power consumption so you can have a log of it over x days for example.

Hello, I want to get modded bios for r9 390 gigabyte. These cards support very high temperatures and have a high consumption. Also, the voltage is locked. I have read this topic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1465128.40 yet to r9 390 gigabyte not everything is clear to me. If anyone has a working Bios please help. Thanks.

You can use HawaiiBiosReader to do the mod.

what speed are you getting ?
and what settings
I have 2x 280x sapphire vapor x's
using 12.4  intensity 6 , stock frequencies... seems stable enough...runs days on end
575-580 sols  pulling 520-525 watts
cant seem to undervolt with afterburner

[montresor]

I'm still new and I am afraid not to screw anything. If you can link to the topic modded bios for r9 390 GIGABYTE. I find very scarce informastsiya for a modded bios for r9 390 GIGABYTE

Sorry to ask maybe on the wrong topic.  I just wanted any opinions of the forthcoming AMD hardware and its possibility to bring forward mining speeds.   
580 will come soon but maybe a much bigger move will be Vega in May onwards.

Is Deep Learning relevant to crypto mining or not likely to bring mining gains for the various blockchains?

not sure 580 will change things significantly in performance per watt. More likely next generation Vega will though.
