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

[UnclWish]

is it wise to mine xmr with a r9 380 nitro 4gb gpu?

Yes.

Hi, Claymore's v12.4 sometimes  "stopped working " What it could be that causes?

On some cards 12.3 and 12.4 is very unstable. Try to use 12.2 version.

I'm already testing 12.2 version... ty , I hope the version 12.5 is 100% ok.

hey guys

i have the asus r9 280x hynix memory with stock bios- clocks and get about 290-295 H/s at -i 4

how many you gets with modded bios?

is it worth it modding the bios right now?

With the mod bios, you get about 1 to 2% improvement.

I have Asus R9280X-DC2T-3GD5. Stock freq. 1070/1600 volt 1.2V. I use modded bios and clocks 1100/1600 and undervolt to 1.1V.
I get 330 H/s on 12.2 with -i 5 (max)

Hey guys this doesn't seem right.  I'm running 2 rx 470s and 1 480.  My watt meter says I'm using 580 Watts which seems high for 3 cards.  Each card is at 80 watts. 

What are the other components in your system? If you're running a higher power CPU that alone would be a good chunk of power. Your GPUs may say 80 watts on a monitoring program, but they are probably pulling at least 100 if not 120 watts in total. Are you using a Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze, or worse rated PSU? The efficiency of your PSU makes a significant difference at the wall...

Sorry I'm a noob, how can I mod the bios? I've heard this but never done before. P.S I've the same card.

Intel I7 6700k my PSU is a Bronze rated 700 watt.  Other than that 3 120mm fans, 2 80mm.  That's it.

Windows Defender just deleted .exe. Perfect.

Well, most would recommend a Platinum or at least Gold PSU for mining, typically PSUs are even less efficient the closer they get to their max load too. In any case, your CPU is rated at 91w (granted that's under heavy load), Rx 470 @ 120 watt, Rx 470 @ 120 watt, Rx 480 @ 150 watt, 5x fans at ~5 watt each = 506 watt even without a HDD/SSD, RAM etc. If you're only operating at 80% efficiency with a Bronze PSU that puts you near the 600 watt mark right there. If you undervolt both the Core and Memory on each GPU you can reduce your power at the wall quite a bit (reduces heat and noise too of course).

Need some help. Anyone here have a mixed rig with r9 fury and rx480. If so how did you get the drivers to install. I've tried to install 16.3.2 which is claymore recommendation for Fiji cards. But once it's finished installing it still shows yellow exclamation mark on the rx480. Those drivers should be new enough to operate the 480 correct?  I'm runnin win 10 pro in this particular rig. It's my amd 8core pc.  If I install more recent drivers like 16.12.2 for Polaris and it shows them all installed but upon running ZecMiner the Fiji never hashes. Shows full load and eventually hangs. Even if I turn off the gpu it still will show full load whilst the rx480 hashes. I've tried putting a dummy plug into the rx480 and a hdmi into fury during install still nothing.  If I load the 16.3.2 i have to disable the rx480 for it to hash correctly. It will do the 40h/s thing if I don't. It will reach speeds of 460 h/s stock settings on its own.  I'm really at a loss at things to try.  Best thing I thought of was to pull a r9290x out of a rig and put the 480 in that and see if the r9 fury will play nice together with that.  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How many gpu do you have? If more than 5, you need to use 6+GPU mod.

I have the same GPU but I could not modify the bios on it.
What tools to mod that GPU bios?
with stock voltage settings, it runs too hot with 1050/1500, I did not even tried 1600 mem clock on it.

Hello! tonight half of my rigs at the same time stop mining - claymore crashes. Using flypool.
What can it be, and how something happend on flypool can crash miner?

[mikecitt]

where can i find custom bios for club 3d 280x hynix ?

You can made it youself. Just search via google "Tahiti bios modding". I can made it for you. Give me your bios rom, I make mod.

I made it win atiwinflash and it's 128kb. is it okay?

In this pc it's only two. I gave up trying it with five other rx480 thinking that was it. Does the same thing with one rx480 installed. I'll look into this. If ya have a link I'd appreciate it. Thanks for the tip

IMHO, using RX480 for ZEC is a waste of hash power.
Best to get the Furies for ZEC and the RX480s for ETH.
R9 Fury Nanos, Fury X, Nitro etc. are right on the money for AMD cards (420-460 sols/s easy)

I agree completely. I was using zecminer for a test of the cards. I was planning on running two instances of the miner sw. One for eth one for zec.  I just can't seem to make them cooperate together. I think this morning I'll try to load 16.3.2 along side of 290x. See if that works.  I know the rx480 works in tangent with 7970 290 390's. Not sure what the deal is with mixing fury with 480's.  I've tried two different mobo and same results.
