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

[hawer183]

Do anyone have same problem like my Radeon 390x - it is beginning mine with speed of 400H/s and after 1 hour it is just 250H/s...

Catalist 15.12

My Radeon 390x get --» 501 H/s in Overclock
My Radeon 480 Nitro+ get --» 375 H/s in Overclock

Windows 10 64 bits and Catalist 16.12.2

Can you share the OC specs for the 480 that give you 375H/s?
Is it just one card or a full x6 Rig?

Thanks

Bullshit!!!

What Do you think about replacing a r9 280 with a Gtx 1060? Same Hash, lower power..

It might be better to use the 1080 Ti.

Lol yeah, bit pricey card.. 0.07 usd/kW is my price so profit is good

You have a nice low electric cost, so I would probably stick with the R9 280 myself. Is it possible for you to add a second GPU and mine with both rather then replacing the first one? With $0.07/kwh I would work towards a nice 6 GPU rig if you can.

Could someone help me out with what settings you are running I have a Asus r9 390 only getting 380hs I also have a sapphire reference 290 only getting 315hs from what I'm seeing my rates are low my clocks are 1075 1500 and 1075 1450 how could I get better rates and less power consumption just looking for some pointers I no every card is different

As a matter of fact, my r9 280 is the least energy efficent card in my system as it turns out . It will be replaced with a third 7990 as soon as my risers comes! Turns out each 7990 only pulls 260W per card. That would mean 780W for 3 7990, 6 cores and 1680 sols/s!

Is there any forecast for a new version?

Hi friends!

For those who has 290s. Im getting 360 h/s. But the card runs at 80 degree celsius. 76% fan speed. Is it normal for that card? I have several 280x. And they run at less then 70°.

I had the same problem, using Dummy Plug and Team Viewer the problem was solved.

[kiaas]

out of curiosity, does it work on the FOSS Radeon drivers? At all?
I know some of the PPAs on Ubuntu at least enable the OpenCL support from the FOSS drivers, but before ZEC they weren't usable because they only wanted to allow allocating 1GB of VRAM for OpenCL, and Ethereum was already up to ~1.3GB DAG files. But how about with ZEC, does it work at all and what sort of performance penalties are there from it?
edit: asking because I have A Lot of SI hardware, and it working even at somewhat reduced performance with the Radeon Drivers will make my migration path a bit easier.

Hello,
I have a problem with my rig(s), maybe someone has an idea. I am using Awesome Miner controlling Claymore Miner. This problem is not awesome miner related since I do get the same error while using claymore without AM.
I do have some Rigs running Windows 10 and I do access them via Teamviewer. Sometimes the rigs (randomly from my point of view) stop hashing and when I connect to it it looks like this:


Since this happens quite often I had the chance to see what happens before: For some reason Windows 10 shows an error claiming that Windows blocks access to (I think it was) Radeon settings which causes Claymore Miner to stop (or maybe stop GPU working so the watchdog restarts Claymore).
I did try different driver versions as of right now I am using the recommended 16.2.2.

In those cases I have to reboot the rig, but unfortunately sometimes not all GPUs start hashing after start of CM. CM states that the GPU hangs in OpenCL call and watchdog restarts CM which can also lead to the screen above.
I do have this problem on all my rigs, so I would appreciate any idea that might help.
Thank you!

How to use an external watchdog? I mean, for ex., sgminer has an API which allows to query the status of the miner and reboot the PC if necessary. How to do the same with Claymore's (check it's status)?

[haxiboy]

Claymore have the same jsonrpc protocol for remote monitoring/controlling, default port is 3333.

You can check it with EthMan, or you can write your own as jsonrpc is well documented. (as i did).
After my miner monitor will be stable i'll release it with a minersit hardware based that can monitor/restart your pc like simple rig resetter but with more features.

I'm getting 310 h/s on 3 x 290x and 383 h/s on a 390

Temps I have capped not to exceed 83. I am fighting the heat of the south now in my garage. But have had higher hashes during the winter. I don't want to burn em up lol

So I would say your h/s vs. temps is very good and about right  

and yes on the 280x's I run 11 of those and the 4 x 280x rigs average 1.1 kh/s and run cool around 72. Great cards for ZEC

Hi,

I'm having an issue with my Gigabyte R9 280x (windforce OC).
The card hashrate is at 300+-, (core clock at 1100) but after a while, for no reason the hashrate drops at 50% (and I have noticed that the core clock drops to 501).
I have to reboot the system or disable/enable the card in device manager to hash at 300 again (for a while, then it drops again at 150 again)

Anyone else having the same issue or any idea what is causing this?  

Thank you in advance!

are you running just the one card?

What fan temp control software are you running?

Sounds like it getting hot and throttling down the clock

[MinermanNC]

Anyone have any results yet for the RX 580 - 570 cards?

I noticed they are keeping prices up on the 480 line 

Please post

Hi,

Thank you for the reply!
yes just one card in the pc!
I use afterburner and fan speed is set at 100% (temp at 85c-92c)

I have tried this miner but always get
GPU #0 returned incorrect data!

HEAT THROTTLING--

The card will throttle at those temperatures.  Temperatures over 85 deg C are too high, and can wear out a card too soon.  Temperatures over 90 deg C can damage even the best cards.       --scryptr

Yes, check your air flow if in a case or pull the side panel off the case put a small fan pushing outside air directly into the GPU maybe help pushing the air back out of case.
Also, set your fan speed to about 75-80 anymore than that seems useless and I feel it actually runs hotter at 100% make sure cards fan blades are spotless and the radiator fins on heat block are clean.
