[Riptide_NVN]

Just a note to the dev (sp_) here. I admire the work you've done on the client so far.

One thing I would really like to see from the software is less work required to tune it. Other clients like TRM for example auto-detect intensity and away you go that's it. One barrier to entry for some people is the tuning work it takes for TBM. You can't just run the executable and have it 'just work' like TRM does so well for example.

I realize some people are going to claim this is laziness and that's fine. The fact is less work to get something running is always a plus.

I have 3070 cards and DAG verification is failing with Afterburner OC settings that iv been using for months. (CC -502, MC +1200 PL 46)

Can  you try v1.44 beta please

Thanks for the beta version,..

this is what im getting now:

yes --dagintensity 1 is there
if/when i run as admin miner doesnt even start:

'TBMiner' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

I wasnt adjusting afterburner for clock, but if i reset to default values it will work fine

It works on 1100 , once i bump it up to 1150+ it start failing.

I still cannot run it as admin for some reason..

https://i.ibb.co/KGmn76x/1-44.png

My observations for almost a day of mining on a 12x3080 no LHR rig.
1. If you are using Hive OS, use cuda 11.4, 11.5 gives a slight drop in hashrate.
2. I tried all the cores of the miner, the core does not automatically set correctly in Hive OS (1.42 core 1, 1.43 core 3). You must manually set the sign from 6 to 8 if you use 1.42 and 12-15 if use 1.43 20xx 30xx series of cards.
3. It makes no sense to set the core clock above 1440, it does not give any performance, it only increases the temperature of the cards and power consumption. This only works on older cards like 1070, 1080, 1080 Ti with gdd5 memory. On cards with GDDR 6-6X memory, the core does not participate in ETH mining and there is NO point in increasing it!
I tested the range from 1200 to 1600, anything above 1440 gives a drop in hashrate.
4. Option --xintensity , you need to select individually, for example, it works better for me on 8100 than on 4096.

Bugs that I found, on a rig with 13 video cards 3090x2 3080x7 3070 x4 NO LHR, I could not achieve stable operation, constant dag generation errors and a lot of invalid shares. Also, a 12x3070 NO lhr rig gives errors during dag generation, option --dagintensity 1 is always on.

Wishes, you should conduct detailed tests under HIVE OS, mining on Windows is extremely inconvenient and not popular. Big miners don't use Windows. Improve stability and fix core map definition.

I will continue to test it on different rigs to find bugs and errors in the hive, as well as to find the optimal settings.

a lot of invalid shares.

i use --tweak / -u [6] and work better to reduce than w/o --tweak / -u

• . Maybe you would try.
