GMiner v3.44 Dero/Karlsen/Radiant/Ergo+IronFish+ZIL/KAWPOW/Equihash/Cortex

[dierickxalexandre@gmail.c]

hello everyone,
i have try to mine beam with gminer with 2xRX470 and 2xRX570 but i get an opencl error "-64" i think,

then my question is: rx with 4gb not working to mine beam or is my oc config or anythings making the problem?

thx and have nice day/afternoon/night at all.

miner growed up from 4Mb (v. 1.31) to 22.5Mb (v. 1.41)... nice.

PS: still can't use any version but 1.31 - "antihacking system". Suggestions?

haven't try all the versions, but 1.36 (came with nicehash miner legacy) and 1.41 are closing with "Anti-hacking system detected modification of the miner memory. If you using an antivirus, add miner to antivirus exceptions" error.

1070, drivers 430.39 (currently latest). win10 x64, miner.exe is added to defender's exeptions (also tried to disable protection at all, but it didn't solve the problem).

my command line is:
miner.exe  -a 144_5 -s zhash.eu.nicehash.com -n 3369 -u mywallet.worker1 -d 0 --api 4003 -w 0 --pers auto

also, right after upgrading from 1.36 to 1.41 (last sunday), the new one worked well for some time! but later - that or, may be, next day - i've noticed that NHML can't start gminer again...

Can you add parameters passing to config file.
I mean that it would be great to have something like
miner.exe --config ZEL.txt --parameter1 WorkerName

So that in ZEL.txt I can use %parameter1% in correct place where it is required by the pool.

Never had AV at rig. Changing videodriver version to current fixed the issue. Anyway thanks for response.

we will do it, I think better access to environment variables via %variable_name% from configuration file, you can set variables before starting miner.

Since v1.38 i have experienced a 5% drop in hashrate across all cards on 144/5. I have 3 rigs, 17 1080s and 1 1070. All of the cards are experiencing the same reduction. I am running HiveOS - Latest version - Driver 418.43.

Do the newer versions require less OC or is there a known bug?

It's true, on some cards with limited PL miner may show less hashrate, we will fix it in near update, however without limited PL it will show better hashrate than old version.

Just updated from 1.36 to 1.42 due to the "anti hacking" watchdog issue, and now the 1080ti's are having massive performance regression in the new update after a few hours that wasn't present before in 1.36, but now I can't go back to 1.36. Hopefully you can fix this quickly or give an update on circumventing the issue entirely?

I am mining BTG with 10 1080Tis. I am using Gminer 1.42 .
Although 1.42 was faster , It was unstable that it crashed my computer system after running for 6 hours , sometimes 10 hours.

I am back running Gminer 1.37.

I hope the developer can quickly fix the instability.

Thanks

I am running all my cards at 130Watts, with 1.38 i average ~66 sols/card. not really sure bumping up the power 10-20 watts for 3-4 extra sols is worth it tbh. I will be on the lookout for an update for now.

Thanks for your response.

Hey, I just heard Ycash (fork of Zcash) will chose 192 7 algo. So can you maybe optimize your miner, so I can mine with 1060 3GB cards on windows ?

You can use GMiner for 192.7 mining on 3GB cards under Windows 7.

Is there updated benchmarks for next gen cards and AION (Equi210,9)?

you have to update environment variables for OpenCL.
Windows:

Code:

setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

Linux:

Code:

export GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE=100
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT=100

Some background. The new version is a killer performer. But I have not used anything above 1.31 once AMD got into the picture.
One of my rigs are mixed. Half NV and rest AMD. Anyone know if there a switch I can use in config to only use Nvidia cards instead of listing the cards manually?

Would be nice feature going forward to enable just for NV.

Pass “—opencl 0” to miner to disable amd cards

Great, thank you

using gminer 1.42 on win10 with 425.31 nvidia drivers on gtx 1070,
system is only using 6GB Solver, what are iam doing wrong?
mining grin29 with 60gb page file

[stzcze]

You do it well, otherwise it doesn't work under win 10. You have to use win 7 or linux.

[b0ne]

on 9 other rigs it works perfect with 3 it always shows up 6gb solver and it crashes
