Why are some algorithm keeps crashing on me..

[duhjeff]

So I've been mining for a few months now.   Ive been running on equihash on nvidia cards and ethash on amd cards without much problems.  However, I've been trying to mine other algorithms but for some strange reason...they will run for a bit and then windows will crash on me.   I've been trying out on most of the mining programs here but with no luck...am i doing something wrong?

what you have cards, what settings overclock?

[gotminer]

Overclock settings that may work just fine for one algo, may not work the same on another.

most recent fiasco

Vega - mined on ethash no problem.  switched to cast xmr to mine cryptonight...crash within minutes (and i put back to stock settings)

1080 ti rigs - put back stop and run neoscrypt...crash too

on 1080ti overclock PL +85 core +100 mem +100 and try run neoscrypt
test your work, if all is stable you can add +10 on core and mem, until the system crash
then a little to reduce and test again

every card is different with every ALGO.

1080TIs were my hardest to get tuned in. There were some algos which I never could get either.

I also found the 1% of optimization i was trying to get was lost when it crashed for 30+ minutes


Get awesome miner and be done with it.

I did use awesome miner, but it still crashes and loop it back to other coins to mine....sometimes

down overclock

[shibob]

If you already mined at stock setting (without OC) but it still keep crashing, I think the possible reason is you set too high intensity (for neoscrypt algo).

[szafa]

Because oc gpu .This is why crashing.

[farizfadzimi]

Yeap. This happens to me too.
How to fix this?
I run Ethash with my RX580 just fine.
Then switch to Equihash still okay.
But when I tried to run neoscrypt it crashes.
Then CryptoKnight is okay, but you can’t run Ethash like before again one of gpu will crash.
I think few things to be considered here.

1. Power - PSU allocation of power must be done carefully as to not over stress it
2. Windows have a problem when switching. Gotta restart before you run other algo

I think linux is the solution here for flexibility.
That’s what it is isn’t it for us GPU miners.
Flexibility.
We need to be able to switch any time we want without complications.

Does mpm have a log choice? If you could log the mistake we could help with diagnosing the hassle. In nemosminer you could upload the --log argument and it will make a log of the whole thing revealed to the console. knowing what the console says before it crashes makes it easier to diagnose the hassle.
