[ANN] coolMiner - Lyra2z Miner for nVidia [Maxwell\Pascal\Volta\RTX]

[Ryzen2700x]

Please tell the optimal settings for GTX1080

what do you mean? OC/Power/ or intensity?

-i 20  should be OK, and regarding OC you should know your safe max Core turbo clock, 1070/1080ti should be fine ~1900Mhz+, on 2000Mhz+ you must test individually each GPU because some can be stable and some can crush after few min/hours/days

Thanks Ryzen for the latest linux version, it works fine.

Happy to help :-).

Hey man your miner was working flawlessly for me but after downloading v1.4 every once a while when I have a connection issue with the pool the miner stops and doesnt try to restore connection and mine again.

Should I add anything in the bat file to force retry or something?

Edit: Thank you

[Ryzen2700x]

create .bat file like this:

Code:

:start
coolMiner-x64 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://<PoolURL>:<PORT> -u <WALLET_ADDRESS> -p <OPTIONS> -i 19  --hide-diff -q
goto start

But if v1.3 worked stable for you you can keep using it, speed is the same.

Thanks, now I have ~ 2.4 Mhs from one 1080 Aorus. I want to make a fine-tuning with msi afteberner curve to get a maximum performance at minimum temperature and also want to understand what the memory or chip frequency affects the performance.
What the optimal voltage for my 1080 on this algo?

[Ryzen2700x]

you can look at the user's benchmarks:
https://gos.cx/bench?algo=lyra2z&chip=5
https://angrypool.com/bench?algo=lyra2z&chip=3

Try to stabilize it around 2000~2050MHZ, memory OC has no affect, and the core voltage on card are jumping to 1050mV on stock, I only need to raise the core voltage when going over 2025Mhz.

really COOLminer   though it crashes at all my rigs. need to play with OC to get it stable. speed reached as described in the thread.

Edit: couldnt get the miner stable. it crashes on all rigs. switched back to ccminer 2.2.6

Where can I read the readme for this miner with all commands to configure my bat file?

Thanks again. CoolMiner the best!

Tried the 1.4 too, but i have the same problem with it, after 30-60 min miner exits and not restart, going back to 1.3

[principino1984]

back to 1.3 too... too many disconnection and miner restart

I see, indeed there is something wrong when using more then 1 pool, I am still figuring it out, just saw this too:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=770064.msg40580515#msg40580515

So if V1.3 works stable for you keep using it. I will continiue searching for better solution and update the thread when I find one.

Also v1.4 is crashing randomly between 30-60 minutes with some message "terminating mining threadio...".
reverting to v1.3 which is working stable for days (for my setup+pool).

I always make .bat file with restart loop, and this was saving my rig, but slowdowns due to miner restart are hurting profit.

Example of .bat file, do not mind intensity settings, i got one 1080ti rest are 1080.

Code:

@echo off
title GIN lyra2z angrypool.com (coolMiner-x64 1.3 Ryzen2700x)
:start
coolMiner-x64 -a lyra2z -i 20,19.5,19.5,19.5,19.5,19.5 -o stratum+tcp://<POOL>:<PORT> -u <WALLET_ADDRESS> -p c=<COIN> -R 10
timeout 10
goto start

[kantoi]

back to 1.3 too... too many disconnection and miner restart

yes same for me - version 1.3 is stable and works well

[vitos_i]

returned to version 1.3, it is more stable

[infPICO]

I can confirm crashing all the time after short time with "terminating working thread" message.

So, --hide-diff -q is necessary or not?

[Ryzen2700x]

Thanks for the feedback on the V1.4, I will try to figure it , at least in not stuck in a loop of "retry after" and now exits, I hope to fix if soon, sry for that but it looks like ccminer not working very stable with 2 pools as mentioned above.

Regarding hide-diff and -q, it's just saves unneeded processes(CPU load) of calculation the diff of share and displaying log per GPU, this is why I made the -q to work after 180 sec so you could start mining and see the stats that all GPU's working OK and then it will enter the Quiet mode.

I can't say anything on stability for 1.3 vs 1.4, but on 1.4 it is really finicky when it decides to crash. Spent too much time trying to push the max clocks on cards and it seems stable for an hour but then crashes later. The terminating workio threads for me was a pool issue, for either 1.3 or 1.4.
