I have been running windows 10 on my miners using nicehash. I am looking to move to using SimpleMining OS but would like to still use nicehash. I am struggling to get the correct inputs to do this. Wondering if someone could give me some pointers as to what my config needs to look like.

This is what I currently have in the config for claymore 12.4 "-zpool stratum+tcp://equihash.usa.nicehash.com:3357 -zwal 1DEvvDfRYoKtLCyARSdkG47yBiZ36SEY8F -zpsw x -mport -3333"


Well, with those settings it does seem to work though I have one GPU stuck at 50H/s and the rest are doing around 200. My windows machine are doing about 280H/s.

All my machines are running RX470's

simplemining is very good but sometimes they version of the miner software are behind two or three generations  .. just give it time to update and only using ver 15.12???  drivers are recommended i havent used simpleming in a month !!!

The version of the miner is the same version as the miner that nicehash uses. I guess I dont know what driver it is using I would have to check. I was struggling to get my cards to play nice with windows since they have a modified BIOS, Thought it might be easier to remove windows from the picture.


At this point it has been running all night and seems stable. Unfortunately each card gets about 70H/s less than my cards running in windows. Is it expected for the hashrate to be that much lower with the simple mining os? If not what should I be looking at tweaking?

i found this on the read me file..  so basically in the simpleminer menu enter -di detect  after this part -zpool equihash.usa.nicehash.com:3357 -zwal 1LmMNkiEvjapn5PRY8A9wypcWJveRrRGWr -zpsw x -di detect


- AMD cards: GPU indexes in temperature control sometimes don't match GPU indexes in mining. Miner has to enumerate GPUs via OpenCL API to execute OpenCL code, and also it has to enumerate GPUs via ADL API to manage temperature/clock.
And order of GPUs in these lists can be different. There is no way to fix GPUs order automatically, thanks to AMD devs.
But you can do it manually. For example, if you have two cards, you can change their order by adding "-di 10". Another example, reverse order for six cards: "-di 543210".
Also you can do it automatically (experimental feature) with "-di detect" option.
Also you can change GPUs order in temperature/fan list with "-gmap" option.
