The miner reports GPU hash rates every 30 seconds.  These are the full GPU hash rates before dev fee deduction (your pool hashrate will be slightly lower).

The miner includes a read-only api based on the sgminer-5.5 API.  Both the json and text formats are supported.  For more details, we refer to the sgminer api documentation.
The miner also includes a Claymore miner compatible API with support for a subset of the API.

For reporting bugs and/or for features requests, please open an issue on this project's github issue tracker.

For example command lines please see the batch/shell scripts in the miner download packages.
Miner command line options are available here

  • Verthash: added --verthash_max_uploads=N to control the upload of the verthash table to gpus at startup. Some chipsets get issues running > 4 gpus concurrently. Typical error is that multiple gpus die immediately at startup when running the full rig, but work fine if you only run 3-4 gpus.
  • Verthash: fixed support for 550 2GB gpus.
v0.8.2
Changes
  • General: added Verthash algo for Vertcoin.

         Driver support missing on Windows for fan control and mem temp.
  • Ethash: display gpus now use A-mode by default to prevent failed allocation and low hashrates.
  • Stats: handling of negative temperatures under Linux.
  • Eth+zil: added new pool strategy 'min_epoch' for dual pool connection switching (see start_zil_eth.bat/.sh example script).
v0.8.0
Notes

Biggest release in a long while with rewritten ethash kernels and new mining modes for all gpu types!

Users are highly(!) recommended to take a few minutes to read the 0.7-to-0.8 migration guide and the new ethash tuning guide. Key highlights:
  • Polaris: Efficiency and slight hashrate increase. B-mode reintroduced for added hash. B-mode must be enabled with --eth_aggr_mode or --eth_config=Bxxx.
  • Vega 56/64: greatly improved base kernel for efficiency. New B-mode that can shave off additional 1-2W on top of the A-mode kernel. B-mode must be enabled manually with --eth_config (--eth_aggr_mode does not apply). Tuning numbers have changed - do NOT keep your old static --eth_config values.
  • Radeon VII: huge boost with its new C-mode but requires a special Linux setup. Can now do 100 MH/s on most air cooled VIIs. See tuning guide.
  • 5700/5700XT: can shave off as much as 8-9W(!) of power using the new B-mode and dropping core clk+voltage. B-mode now the default mining mode. Unless you retune your core clk+voltage you will see a tiny power draw increase instead and not benefit from the upgrade, so read the migration guide.
  • 5600XT: new B-mode has a much smaller effect. A-mode remains the default mining mode. See new tuning guide for more details.
  • The dag cache is NOT compatible with the new B/C-modes. ETH+ZIL switchers have to choose between caching the epoch 0 dag and using the new mining modes.
  • Ethash 4GB kernels NOT rewritten in this release, performance remains the same as in 0.7.x.
  • See the migration guide for hashrate and power draw comparisons between 0.7.21 and 0.8.0.
Changes
  • Ethash: VII kernel rewrite and new C-mode with boost feature (see guide).
  • Ethash: Navi kernel slight optimization and new B-mode for lower core clock and power.
  • Ethash: Vega kernel rewrite and new B-mode for lower core clock and power.
  • Ethash: Polaris kernel rewrite and new B-mode for slightly higher perf.
  • Ethash: added share processing timeout and default for Binance pool (see --pool_share_limit_ms).
  • Claymore API: fixed leak that stopped serving requests after 32k api calls.
  • Claymore API: added password support (see --cm_api_password).
  • Logging: added log rotation support (see --log_rotate).
  • Logging: log files now contain the miner welcome message so the version is stored.
  • Kawpow: now mining ok at MiningPoolHub even though their seedhash is broken.
  • Fan control: added min/max fan speed range (see --fan_control).
  • General: added argument to turn off duplicate pci bus id filtering (see --allow_dup_bus_ids).
v0.7.22
Notes
  • NAVI KERNEL REWRITE! Over the last month we've been working on new kernels. The first one released is for Navi. The main feature is lower power consumption, hashrate will remain about the same but depends somewhat on clocks. NOTE: please let the miner retune any existing --eth_config arguments for all Navi gpus, the new values will be significantly lower.
  • Claymore API now supported, meaning you can use EthMan to monitor TRM rigs.
Changes
  • Ethash: Kernel rewrite for Navi.  Should now be more stable and use less power.  Vega/Polaris still in the works.
  • General: Slightly reworked init procedure again to address some rigs running better on <= 0.7.18 than >= 0.7.19.
  • General: Added Claymore compatible API, see the --cm_api_listen option.
v0.7.21
Notes

Quick release that addresses situations where Ethash with capped DAG on 4GBs would crash after 5-10 mins when running at 4078-4080MB.
Changes
  • Ethash: improved probability for high (4078-4080MB) ethash 4GB capped allocation running stable over time.
v0.7.20
Notes

ETH is now approaching the start of the 4GB death with the upcoming switch to epoch 382. TRM was the first miner to add support for mining with 4GB gpus with a partial DAG, here called "extended mining". However, it has always required manual configuration. This release adds a default conservative cap at 4072MB for DAG storage on 4GB gpus for out-of-the-box execution of the miner. For maximum performance, miners are still advised to manually tune their rig(s) with the --eth_4g_max_alloc argument. Most rigs runs stable with a higher value than 4072, which makes a significant difference for upcoming ETH epochs.

For more detailed instructions, our Ethash 4GB guide has also been updated and is available at https://github.com/todxx/teamredminer/blob/master/doc/ETHASH_4GB_HOWTO.txt
Changes
  • Ethash: added default capped DAG allocation for 4GBs at 4072MB (see --eth_4g_max_alloc).
  • Ethash: bugfix for crashes using --eth_dag_cache on 4GB gpus.
v0.7.19
Notes
  • Ethash solo-miner share high-score list added, use --high_score to enable.
  • Ethash single buffer dag for a small power save. Only available on recent drivers and should in theory always be an improvement. It is not verified 100% stable yet and therefore not the default in this version. Enable with --eth_dag_buf=A to test.
  • Miner gpu initialization procedure rewritten. The init procedure should now hopefully be much more stable, especially on Navis in general and even more so for 5600(XT)s.
Changes
  • General: added adjustable ratio support for quota and load_balance pool strategies (see --pool_ratio).
  • General: rewrote the miner init procedure to be more stable in general.
  • General: fixed issue where output blocking could cause mining work to stop.
  • General: reduced main binary size.
  • Ethash: reintroduced single DAG buffer support for recent drivers allowing large single allocations (see --eth_dag_buf).
  • Ethash: added high score list of the 15 highest value shares found since start (see --high_score).
  • Ethash: small improvements in keeping the gpu busy over epoch switches.
  • Ethash: fixed bug that would cause deadlocks in rare occasions.
  • Ethash: bugfix - dag cache wasn't enabled for 4GB gpus.
v0.7.18
Notes
  • Support for the ETC fork added. Run with "-a etchash" for easiest support, see "--eth_variant_mode" in the help for more info.
  • ETH+ZIL miners: add "--eth_dag_cache=0" to use a second dag cache and prebuild epoch 0 immediately at miner start.
  • Ethash miners relying on ramp-up and stagger for stability: the default mode of these tweaks has been changed to off. They now need to be enabled with --eth_ramp_up and --eth_stagger. While helping a number of rigs, these tweaks caused increased instability of others, making the choice of a good default mode difficult.
Changes
  • Added etchash support (see algo etchash and --eth_variant_mode).
  • Added dag cache support, mostly intended for eth+zil mining (see --eth_dag_cache).
  • Fixed hex char parsing in enable/disable submenu, can now work with >= 10 gpus.
  • Changed the default for ethash ramp-up and staggering to false (see --eth_ramp_up and --eth_stagger).
  • Added check for broken win setups with duplicated opencl platforms and/or devices.
v0.7.17
Changes
  • BETA: Added fan control, see --help section or USAGE.txt. Enable with --fan_control.
  • Fixed deadlock bug that could happen when using multiple pools with the failover strategy.
  • Added option for not sending stale shares (see --no_stale_submit).
  • Added watchdog check for early gpu init hangs.
  • Added example watchdog scripts for win/linux.
v0.7.16
Notes

BETA RELEASE - small fixes for Turtlecoin's new algo chukwa2.
Changes
  • Chukwa2: fixed kernels loading for Radeon VII gpus.
  • Chukwa2: fixed mem footprint for 2GB gpus.
v0.7.16b
Notes

BETA RELEASE - adds Turtlecoin's new algo chukwa2. Not tested as rigorously as other versions. Only use for the Turtlecoin fork.
NOTE: Navi gpus are NOT supported on chukwa2 for now. Support will be added if there's sufficient interest.
Changes
  • Added algo trtl_chukwa2 for the Turtlecoin fork on 2020-10-22.
v0.7.15
Notes

Small bugfix release.
Changes
  • Ethash: fixed bug for ZIL (epoch 0) mining on 4GB gpus (bug appeared in 0.7.14).
  • Ethash: reverted to v0.7.10 kernels for stability purposes except for ROCm-based rigs.
v0.7.14
Notes

This release wraps up our work for 4GB gpus mining ethash. Linux 4GB are verified to mine up to and including epoch 381 on drivers 18.50/19.30/19.50/20.10. After that, we have added support for extended mining from epoch 382 and up. Extended mining is a trade-off between hashrate and being able to mine at all, gpus will lose additional hashrate for every extra epoch. Please see the Linux section in the ETHASH_4GB_HOWTO.txt for more details and instructions.
Changes
  • Ethash: verified Linux support for 4GB gpus up to and including epoch 381.
  • Ethash: added support for extended 4GB mining from epoch 382 and up.
  • Kawpow: cleaned up false hw errs for some block heights.
v0.7.13
Notes
  • Windows user with 4GB rigs - see the new guide ETHASH_4GB_HOWTO.txt for instructions.
Changes
  • Added better default Windows dag allocation strategy on 4GB gpus.
  • Added experimental support for resetting gpus before mining (Windows only).
  • Added argument for manual adjustment of 4GB dag allocation (see --eth_4g_alloc_adjust=X,Y,Z,...).
  • Added protection against broken dev servers with additional random server selection mechanism.
v0.7.12
Notes
  • Bugfix release: v0.7.11 could crash with rejected ethash shares.
Changes
  • Fixed print format bug on ethash rejected shares.
v0.7.11
Notes
  • Ethash additions: printing share diff in GH (always enabled), hashrate watchdog (see --eth_hashwatch).
  • Better debug support: --long_timestamps, --pool_debug.
  • We've found certain motherboard/bios combinations that due to kernel and/or driver bugs have issues with the first or last gpu in rigs. If you see excessive hw errors reported on a single gpu, and switching around gpus still always generates errors in the first or last gpu, try using --eth_dag_alloc_patch.
Changes
  • Added DAG allocation patch under linux for certain mobo/bios combinations (see --eth_dag_alloc_patch).
  • Added ethash hashrate watchdog (see --eth_hashwatch).
  • Added ethash abort mechanism for Vegas on ROCm (see --eth_direct_abort). Not useful in other contexts.
  • Added pool traffic debug (use --pool_debug).
  • Added print of share difficulty for ethash family algos. Unit is always GH.
  • Added microsec timestamp resolution in logs (use --long_timestamps).
  • Regression bug: argon2/chukwa was broken in 0.7.10, now working again.
  • Turned off compute mode checks for non-Polaris gpus.
v0.7.10
Notes
  • Ethash 4GB rigs, especially on win, should use --eth_alloc_epoch=N with N being the max epoch that the gpus can allocate. This will avoid DAG reallocation issues.
  • For Navi rigs having issues with eth+zil or Nicehash mining with frequent DAG switching, try using --eth_dag_slowdown=9.
Changes
  • Added default log filename (trm_<algo>_<yyyymmdd_hhmmss>.log)
  • Added ethash forced initial allocated epoch ( --eth_alloc_epoch=N). Note: HIGHLY recommended for 4GB rigs.
  • Added ethash family DAG build slowdown configuration (--eth_dag_slowdown=N, default value 4).
  • Added ethash family DAG build staggering across gpus (disable with --eth_no_stagger).
  • Added ethash family intensity ramp-up (disable with --eth_no_ramp_up).
  • Added option for forcing dev fee region (see --dev_location).
  • Added MTP for Navi gpus.
  • Added MTP ramp-up after pad rebuild.
  • Fixed error printouts on failed watchdog script execution on Linux.
  • Stats: now shows more clocks and temps, and also adds gpu state in hashrate prints (see --short_stats to disable).
  • Added checks for and enabling compute mode and disabling crossfire on Windows (see --enable_compute).
v0.7.9
Changes
  • Fixes for mixed rig mining on Linux.
  • Added --eth_epoch argument for easier epoch testing.
  • Added --eth_aggr_mode for automatic aggressive 'B' mode on Polaris 8GB gpus.
  • Added --watchdog_disable argument.
v0.7.8

This is the tuning guide included in the release, posting it here as well for people to read before they download.

A noteworthy fact not mentioned below is that we also asked two forum members not affiliated with us in any way, dragonmike and N2DCRYPT, to verify the miner hashrates for us on their rigs in an early test release. If someone asks, I'm sure they will present their own benchmarks. Imho, their results were in line with our own testing presented below.


Team Red Miner CNv8 Tuning

Background

This miner is more lean than other CN miners. This can translate into either increased hashrate, lower power draw, or both, or none of the above. Your mileage may vary and is highly dependent on mem straps and clocks. If running at the same hashrate as other CN miners, you can expect your power draw to decrease between -5-20W per gpu depending on gpu model and clocks.

To enable a higher hashrate, this miner generally requires a higher _core clk_ than normally used in CN mining. Unless you go nuts, your power draw will most probably be lower than that of other miners at lower clocks in the end anyway. This is the only way to achieve a > 2200 h/s read on a Vega 64.

There are fewer controls in this miner than the standard CN miner. It always runs with two threads, and you control the intensity per thread in the range 1-16. Moreover, you can choose between two modes, + and -. The mode will most often not have any effect on the end result, but it never hurts to try it.

Tuning guide

[Windows drivers]
For some Polaris cards, the good ol' blockchain driver works fine. However, the one driver that seems to be a good fit across the board is 18.6.1, and that's the driver we have used in all our Windows tests.

[Windows swap space]
You should to set up your swap space to be at least the sum of all GPU memory you intend to use when mining. Typically, for a 4GB card this is 3.5GB and for an 8GB it's 7.5GB. Playing it safe is recommended, i.e. rather add the full memory size of all your GPUs and set the swap to the total sum or more.

[Linux drivers]
You need the amdgpu-pro 18.30 drivers for your Vegas under linux to reach the max possible hashrate. Also, please note that this release does not include ROCm support for CNv8, it will be included in an upcoming release instead.

[Polaris cards (470-580)]
The standard configuration is 8+8 for all of these cards. 8+6 or 7+7 might give the same optimal hashrate, and 9+9 can, especially under linux, give a better result for 480/580. For some cards, 16+14 is the best choice but also increases the probability of stale shares. You must have good mem straps to reach a good hashrate. Normally e.g. the Pimp My Straps function in SRB Polaris Bios Editor is sufficient. For mem clk, boosting it as much as possible while avoiding mem errors is a good thing. The core clk should generally end up between 1230-1270. For 580s, a boosted core clk to 1300 can push the hashrate to 1100 h/s while still staying at a reasonable power draw. We have seen few Polaris cards not being able to reach 1020-1030 h/s with this miner when the proper mem straps are in place.

[Baffin and Lexa Pro cards (550-560)]
From v0.3.8, this miner has now been better optimized for these smaller cards. The major additions are that the '+' mode has been optimized and a 'L' prefix mode designed for the smallest Lexa Pro cards has been added. Some rules of thumb when you optimize your rigs:

  • We'd expect 4+4 and 4+3 to be the only interesting configs for 4GB cards.
  • For Lexa Pro cards with 8 CUs, prefix your config with 'L', i.e. L4+3.
  • The 'L' prefix is designed for Lexa Pro, but can also work well for Baffin with 10 CUs.
  • Many 2GB Lexa Pro can't do L4+3 under Win, only L3+3. For max performance you should try Linux and L4+3.
  • For an overkill full range test, you should try all of 4+4,4+3,3+3,3+2,2+2 in four modes: X+Y,LX+Y,X-Y,LX-Y

[Vega cards]
The Vegas can end up anywhere from 1900-2270 depending on if it's a 56 or 64, a reference card or not and your choice of clocks. The interesting configurations to try for your Vega are 14+14, 14-14, 15+15, 16+14. You can also try 16+15, 15+14, etc. The mem clk is very important, and you should aim for as high as possible while keeping your rig stable. If you have a Vega 64, please don't be shy to try a higher core clk. The 16+14 configuration will often not show its true capability before hitting 1500 core clk. Your power draw should still stay reasonable (as in lower than other miners at more standard clocks). For a lower core clk around 1408, some cards do best with 16+14, others with 15+15, some with 14+14, YMMV.

[Older cards]
We're sorry, we only support 470-580, 550/560 and Vega cards.

Great to see some work from you again!

Ive just tested it real quick on my Vega and 470 Rig.
The power consumption is amazing!

Vega 56 2016H/s @ 164 Watts
RX 470 1008H/s @ 126 Watts

Crazy stuff. Ill have to do some more tests.

Unfortunately i dont have any merit points left  Angry

Hello tested on windows 10 with 6*RX580, it doesn't launch unfortunatly. i tryed without Antivirus and without OC.

I got the message "failed to list OpenCL devices".

Can it be a driver problem ? i have blockchain drivers.

Thank you

Thanks rubine!  It's been quite the push to get this release out.  Thanks for giving it a spin so quickly.
Your RX 470 power is a bit higher than what we've been seeing, what clocks are you running on it?

Hi flux,
As rubine mentioned, it's likely that you have more than one opencl platform, and the miner uses the first platform by default.
If adding the --platform=1 option that rubine suggested doesn't work, could you run clinfo on the command line and post the output?

I tested this last night on two rigs (RX570's and Vega 56's).
Great work indeed. It's hands down the fastest and least power-consuming CN miner around.

For everyone's benefit, I got most hashrate using --cn_config=7+7 on the 570's and 16+14 on the Vegas so far, for virtually no increase in power draw. Net net a gain of about 4% hashrate at 7% less power than SRBminer.

Well done.

EDIT: looking forward to you releasing the same sort of improvements on the other CN variants (heavy/heaven/fast etc) and other algos that are grossly unoptimised for AMD hardware (looking at you x16r)!  Wink

what clocks?


EDIT: sidenote... for the lulz I increased clock speeds on the Vega56's to 1590... Hashrate went up to 2150 h/s!  Grin
But power went up quite massively as well (over 225W per GPU).

this looks promising.

Especially in a sea of viruses and trojan miners that we had here. I wish i had any lefover merit to give to you Smiley

I tested at my home PC and now i will proceed to update my rigs. It seems your dev fee is high but it is well deserved.

Test at home PC: Adrenalin 18.10.2, win 10 1809, vega 64 custom cooling, power table 85% from vega guide (unfortunate vega), core 1550/900 mem 1150/900

All consumption below is entire system consumption from the wall

JCE miner: 2080H/s @ 300W
SRBminer: 2130H/s @ 300W
TeamRedMiner: 2300H/s @ 285W

 Shocked

I will provide here results from optimized Vega rigs later on.

Is there any special driver version you recommend for Vega?

Thanks!

Posting to confirm that the advertised hashrates and power draws for this miner are legitimate. Quite an impressive release from kerney666 and todxx; personally, I've had issues switching over rigs to v8 because of the increased power draw, and this miner has alleviated those problems, while giving increased hashrate!

My Vega 64s are currently working at about 2100 H/s and Vega 56's are running 2000 H/s with lower power draw and higher hashrates than I was running on SRBMiner.

Vmozara, the Adrenalin 18.6.1 drivers should work well; and that's what I'm running on all of mine--anything older than that tends to have problems with v8.

I tested this last night on two rigs (RX570's and Vega 56's).
Great work indeed. It's hands down the fastest and least power-consuming CN miner around.

For everyone's benefit, I got most hashrate using --cn_config=7+7 on the 570's and 16+14 on the Vegas so far, for virtually no increase in power draw. Net net a gain of about 4% hashrate at 7% less power than SRBminer.

Well done.

EDIT: looking forward to you releasing the same sort of improvements on the other CN variants (heavy/heaven/fast etc) and other algos that are grossly unoptimised for AMD hardware (looking at you x16r)!  Wink

Thanks for helping with the early testing dragonmike!  It really helps to have some outside validation of our numbers as a bit of a sanity check before a release Smiley
As for CN variants and other new algos, we will be adding more, but it may be a little while.  This last push to get CNv8 from the drawing board and into production has taken over a month of full time work on both our parts and we both need a bit of a breather after this one.  That said, adding CN variants now that we have the general CN infrastructure in place should be much easier.  We've also done some very initial work on x16r and it looks like there's plenty of room for improvement, but at this point we can't make any promises on what we'll be able to release and when.

what clocks?


EDIT: sidenote... for the lulz I increased clock speeds on the Vega56's to 1590... Hashrate went up to 2150 h/s!  Grin
But power went up quite massively as well (over 225W per GPU).

Haha, I just spent a couple hours pushing my Vega FE too.  I managed to hit just over 2400h/s running at 1610MHz core and 1195MHz mem clocks!  Grin  The card was pulling about 300W alone so not very useful, but I love seeing that 2400h/s readout!

Have you tried using --cn_config=7+7 ?
Yup there is no change at all. All my AMD's are 4GB and never get more than 820kh with cryptonight Sad

Do you know what type of memory is on your card?
I have some MSI RX470 mining edition cards that have Micron memory and so far I can only get them to about 850h/s with the best straps I could find.

this looks promising.

Thanks vmozara!  Nice to see someone else out there pushing the higher 2300+ hashrates  Smiley
As for the driver version, we have done most of our testing on 18.6.1, so I would consider that the safest bet.  I believe kerney saw some issues with Vegas running the old blockchain drivers, so I would avoid those for Vegas.

Thanks for helping with the early testing N2DCRYPT!  We really appreciate you taking the time to kick the tires before the release!
Also I'm glad we could help get your rigs back into their old power profiles Smiley

Absolutely amazing results. Well done!

Thanks dafuzz_rsa!  We're looking forward to cranking out some new algos after we take a little bit of a breather Smiley
