MoreEpochs mod v2.7 [Claymore ETH miner 15] Win/AMD+Nvidia. 0.6% fee, 600 epochs

[batsonxl]

Ok it is working man. Im testing now and it is stable for several hours, i fixed that 22mhs problem just switching fast memory timings from amd wattman place and here it is 29.7mhs i think it is bug with my drivers. 30mhs is good speed for rx470 and 570. Thanks alot and keep doing great jobs.

plz add a feature so after exiting the miner, miner restart applied voltage and core/mem clocks settings to default
thanks for awesome release

Thanks, will see what can be done about that.

Just updated to v2.1 and still running like a dream wish I could help test some of the other features but I run the miner in a fairly vanilla state just due to the cards I use hahaha.

Thank you, you've already helped with your feedback

Thank you, glad that you fixed that problem. I found that some software can affect straps apply success. For example there is very usefull tool named HwInfo, among other things this tool can show GPU memory errors and that is very usefull for overclocking. You can raise memory clocks and then start mining and watch Hwinfo, if there are no memory errors you can increase mem clock a little more and repeat process. If you see gpu memory errors you know you should decrease mem clock. So its possible to find optimal memory clocks that work fast and stable. After that you can start testing straps/rxboost.

But here is problem. If Hwinfo was started, it doesn't allow straps to work. Miner shows that straps were applied successfully, but it has no effect on mining speed. If you exit from Hwinfo, it doesn't help until you reboot your rig, after that straps begin actually work. Obviously there could be more programs that prevent straps from working. Atleast Msi Afterburner and GPU-Z with default settings doesn't interfere with straps  


I've done some overclocking tests with my RX580, found optimal core/mem clock values and strap number. After that I tested Claymore vs Phoenix.

Claymore MoreEpochs v2.1 with -cclock 1300 -cvddc 950 -mclock 2225 -mvddc 900 -rxboost 1 -strap 4 -dcri 3 -benchmark 405

Phoenix 5.5c with -cclock 1300 -cvddc 950 -mclock 2225 -mvddc 900 -rxboost 1 -gt 66 -benchmark 405
https://vimeo.com/533072304

screenshot without interference of recording software:


-gt 66 value used in video was auto-tuned by phoenixminer in previous run:



So about 33.778 MH/s for Claymore MoreEpochs 2.1 and 33.180 for Phoenixminer 5.5c, it's +600 KH/s (0.6 MH/s) per GPU for Claymore MoreEpochs 2.1. Of course it's possible to flash custom gpu bios with straps applied and then there is no need to apply any external straps, but there is always risk to brick gpu and it's not possible to change straps easy and fast.

Yes i know i can push them but for me rx 470/570=30mhs is enough and for 480/580=32mhs is enough and for 5700=54-55mhs is enough for me. i been using polaris cards many years and was happy with that speed, never crash never problem, forget about rig

Agree, less speed but more stability long term. I was just happy to see that now for Polaris cards Claymore beats Phoenix

Btw, do you have Vega? If yes can you test straps with Vega gpu? Most likely it should work, because problem that I fixed in strap driver was not gpu specific but still it would be good to actualy check it.

Sorry i dont have vegas only polaris navi and 1000 series

Could you help me with an errors.
Not enough memory to place DAG, you cannot mine this coin with this GPU.
My cards are RX480 8GB and RX580 8GB, Phoenix miner works. Lot of virtual memory, 8GB RAM. Drivers 19.4.3

Try another driver for example 20.11.1, 1st ddu old drivers in safe mode then install new

ok, no problem 

Anyone with Vega gpus please test straps with mod version 2.1

Minimum AMD driver my mod works with is 20.5.1. This is first AMD driver that allows to allocate 4+ GB video buffer as one piece in gpu memory, this is what we need to place 4+ GB DAG for epochs 385+. It's faster than splitting DAG into 2 pieces. So as batsonxl said all you need is to update video driver, minimum version is 20.5.1, latest one I've tested is 20.12.1. Don't forget to enable Compute mode after reinstalling driver.

~ Now miner shows AMD driver version at startup and warns if it's not supported.

~ Fixed bug of original miner with applying -cclock values to Navi GPUs on new video drivers.

~ Several minor fixes.

Straps are not suitable for GTX1660, can they be added?

[Just_a_miner]

Straps are not suitable for GTX1660, can they be added?

I'm not sure it's possible. All I know about increasing hashrate of 1660 is that if you decrease memory clock, set it like -500 mhz or -502 mhz and if your 1660 has hynix memory you will get speed increase.

New Version just released!

More Epochs mod v2.4 for Claymore Eth Miner v15

Changelog:

~ Improved straps apply method for Polaris GPUs. Most issues when miner reports that strap was applied successfully but hash speed doesn't increase are solved. Custom memory timing level that was set in AMD Software (Wattman) doesn't affect straps apply success anymore.

~ Now miner warns if Compute Mode is not enabled for AMD GPUs.

Thank you very much for your reply, I have Micron and Samsung memory. Strap does not support, I believe you will succeed! ! !

Hi,
Can I use this miner with RX570-580 4G RAM to mine ETC?
Thx

Hello, not yet. ETC devs changed algo some time ago, so it's not possible to mine ETC same way as ETH as it always been before.
I will try to add ETC support after I'll finish Linux version of the mod.

great,thanks for reply. How long until linux version drops?
