Claymore XPM GPU Miner discussion

[WINNIE_POOL]

Hi Claymore,
I have many problem with many my grids: x 5 r9-270, x 6 r9-270, x 2 r9 - 270
When I run, I received 1 or 2 cards with stop driver VGA.
I use version 2.1, try with many config such as: ss - 2, HC: 512, 256 and default core, mem but still error. I can't fix it.
My command:
NsXpmMiner.exe -o ypool.net -u abcd.1 -p 1 -di 0 -ss 2 -sd 0 -hc 512
di 0-> 5
Ex: Card 0 stop driver, card 1 stop driver and no have TRT, CHD.

But no this error with other grid:5 x r9 280x or 5 x HD 7950.
Please see & resolve it for me.
Thanks

Hi, can you let me know TRT on HD 7950.
Thanks

Try
NsXpmMiner.exe -o ypool.net -u abcd.1 -p 1 -di 0 -ss 2 -hc 256
Also try to remove "GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT" environment variable if you use it.
Also disable overclocking, install(reinstall) catalyst v13.12 and reboot computer. Helps in 99% cases.

Hi Claymore,
I remove GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100, restart pc and it's ok. I run 6 card 270 no problem.
But low speed.
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT: TRT 680
Remove GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT: TRT 730

Can you fix this error and upgrade version 2.2 so that I still can use GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 ?
Thanks

TRT 680 is ok for 270 cards. You can use GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT but use "-hc 256" or even less value (e.g. 200) that will work for you.

@Claymore

Total Round Time (TRT): 11795

If you get TRT = 0 or such big value, set "-hc 256" (see readme). Also make sure that Catalyst 13.12 is used, disabled overclocking and reboot computer.

Yes its working on New Version 2.1 set -hc256

[gilad215]

i have two rigs with same hardware and 5x280x

one has 2gb ram and the other 4gb ram

in the 2gb ram i can set hc512 and it works.

in the 4gb i can't even when its in the bat file, it works automaticly with 248 hashcnt. when i set gpu alloc100 the miner doesn't even start
trt400+-

the performance diffrence is so big between the two? will there be a fix?

Try to enable alloc100 and set "-hc 320".

In a few days, I'm working on further speedup.

can't enable gpu_max_alloc 100 with set, only setx works which makes me reinstall windows.
the cmd says variable enviorment not defiend

still hashct 248

can't enable GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100 with set, only setx works which makes me reinstall windows.

still hashct 248

Use it like this:set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
set makes the comand local, setx makes it permanent in registry.

[f5inet]

Does this miner support 7850 1G or 2G??

It should work if you specify "-hc 256" or may be some less value.

You dont have to reinstall Windows, you can remove variable from registry, look in this thread.
set works with =
setx with <space>

@Claymore:
Little success with stability on my rig:
10h without crash on 3 cards set -hc 512 and 1 card -hc 256 :-)

it works now with 320!

still trt the same numbers but it seems better for the long run thanks!

any fix for 512?

[SpeedDemon13]

I upgraded to Win 8.1 from Win 7 Ultimate found out that AMD Driver 14.3 crashes a lot in Win 8.1. So, just a pointer that 14.3 works ok on Win 7 but Win 8/8.1 works best with 13.12.

Hello everyone,

Who mines on ypool - please try to move to another pool
I personally know only one else which works well with this miner:  gpool.net (ip address  for config in tutorial)


Pool monopoly is definately bad for the coin! 


btw, thanks for the miner, on my dual 7950 works well  

Good call - gpool seems to work for me as well. I like that it has the lower 0.3 XPM payout threshold and only 2% fee. What port are you using? The tutorial makes it look like different ports are used for jhPrimeminer vs. xolo primeminer.

[kyne]

Did anyone measured the power draw from GPU when running claymore?

[btc_101]

Hi Claymore,

Does your miner support other pools, like rpool, it also compatible with xpt protocol.  The ypool now can easily start a 51% attack.
