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

[Call_Me_Bambi]

i have 2 x fury x cards water cooled , is it better to run crossfire or just 2 cards ?

I've never heard of anyone mining with crossfired GPUs, in fact all the advice given (when using several GPUs) is to turn crossfire off as it can cause problems when mining. Why not just give it a go and see what happens when running crossfire, if it works, and compare it to running the cards non-crossfire.

how many sols should i get on rig with 6x380x from AMD, i'm thinking about make a rig, winter is coming.

amd r9 380x gives around 280 - 340 sol/s based on bios and clocks, amd products are better for cryptonote a moded rx 480 can give around 750 - 1000 h/s.

I think rx 480 is not that fast.

It wasn't but claymore's last cryptonight update did a miracle and now my rx 480 8gb gives 1000 h/s on monero.

I've experienced this same miracle.

Hello guys (again)!
Want to remind to all of you, that if somebody has any problems with stability of EWBF, DSTM, CLAYMORE miners or needs some extra control over your rigs please read carefully my message below.

I want to introduce you a script, which can solve most of your problems. It is a result of half a year hard work with my beta testers. Now it is clean of any bugs and ready to be introduced for the wide mining community.

1) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2071108.0
2) https://forum.z.cash/t/cmd-equihash-miner-autorun-autorestart-watchdog-for-ewbf-claymore-dstm/20640

It will definetely reduce your valuable time spent near your rigs, because this script will do all the work for you. Just start it and forget about your rigs, relax or do anything else. In case of any problem this script will restart your miner, or the rig, if necessary. It will notify you by Telegramm message about all problems and corrective actions taken. It is open source code (CMD/BAT, not an .exe or something like this), so anyone can check throug the code if needed.
Enjoy your life, let the script to monitor your rigs for you.

Is there a program that can switch my rig off and on e every day or 2?

Is there a program that can switch my rig off and on e every day or 2?

Well you could get a simple rig resetter.  See SMOS website, they sell rig resetters.  Or you could build your own, its not that complicated.  Or you could have a switched PDU.

Why such expensive options? Just add the following to your claymore batch file at the end: -r 1440
1440 is time in minutes, it will restart your system after 1440 minutes ( 60 x 24 ) of continuous run.

is this version 12.6 also vulnerable for remote attackers?

last week i'm getting messages in log like:

Remote management: read-only mode, command miner_file ignored
Remote management: read-only only, command miner_reboot ignored

every several minutes

Have you solved this problem

[Nekor]

I still can't get this to work.  The console window closes out after about 15 seconds, Zecminer doesn't start (just shows the commands in my bat file).  Even add PAUSE did nothing.
Can't create log file either.

No idea why as I've disabled my AV/Win Defender.
Using Crimson ReLive drivers with R9 270X (also have a GTX 1070) in my desktop.
Other rigs are fine.

if pause at the end doesn't work its windows issue you have to be able to see what's wrong with adding the pause try reinstalling the windows.

Run the .bat file in a command window. This will let you see any errors and so give you some idea where the problem may be.
In the address bar at top of folder type "cmd" and this will open a command window.
Another way to get command window up when using Windows 7 is "shift+right mouse click" in a blank space in the folder will bring up the option "Open command window here".

Hi.
is this Ok numbers for one Vega 64 mining zcash on flypool using diff: 16000?

I've been using this miner, mining with Nicehash. I've been taking a look at it. I notice that the miner is mining on the equihash pool. The config file say it's flypool. How does the miner bypass the config file and mine on equihash even though it says flypool? In the epools.txt file they are all # out. I am sure some people know what's going on here!

Does it make sense for me to try and figure out how to mine ZCash directly to a pool myself rather than go thru Nicehash? If so, how do I do that? I tried just substituting my own ZCash address in the config file. But I could get no accepted shares, and really wasn't even sure what pool I was mining on. Again, I thought it was flypool because that's what the config file says but now I see it's using the equihash pool.

It seems to me that if I go directly to a pool I can avoid the Nicehash fees. I must be getting fee'd by pools twice, once from the actual pool and then again from Nicehash.

Hi guys,

Its my first post here, hope someone can help.

I bought recently R9 Nano at discounted price to try to mine zcash.

Previously I used R9 280X, 16.7.3 drivers and got stable 290-300 H/s, mining with Claymore 12.0 Beta  (eventually 12.4 or 12.6, but 12.0 worked best).

My CPU is Core i3 43130, PSU - Corsair 600W

Now there seems to be a problem.

I get around 320 H/s (16.3.2 drivers, powertune +50), but still, the rig restars after around one hour (so I cant work properly overnight)


Only Claymore 12.6 works, other versions tend to crash or show 0 H/s. ASM algorithm doesnt work (either shows 0 H/s or WatchDog restarts mining).
I tried the recommended 16.3.2 drivers, 16.7.3 which worked fine on 280X and latest.

Also - when I plugged both Nano and 280x, Nano got 250 H/s, 280x got 290 h/s. (but, as my PSU got only 600W i didnt run this in long term)

What do you guys recommend to do?
Fury's/Nano should get at least 400 h/s....

Claymore's miners ingore anything in the config file if there are two, or more options, in the .bat file (I don't know if the .exe is considered an "option"). See OP for more on this.
You may be getting burned not two times but three times; a fee from Nicehash a fee from the pool AND a fee from Claymore's miner.

Yeah I thought of that. There's nothing in the .bat file other than a command to start the miner. I'll just have to read up more on the miner and see if I can get it to work without the Nicehash front end. The thing is, Nicehash provides a windows-friendly front end to the miner. That makes a big difference to people like me.

Is claymore miner support 32 bit wintow 10 ?

Will it good with Nvidia 840 M GPU card?

Unfortunately No, It doesn't support 32bit, its in the first page posted by the OP.

Will it good with Nvidia 840 M GPU card?

Is this a built in GPU cards on laptop? just in case it is, then its not advisable to do mining on laptop
