Claymore XPM GPU Miner discussion

[Claymore]

Ok im seeing Total/Valid blocks 1 / 1 now. So I found a block?

Still no change in wallet balance though, maybe it takes a while to update?

Edit: i'm using Claymore solo edition wallet but in readme it now says: 1. Use official Primecoin wallet with this miner. Should I switch?

no, you use claymore wallet
the part about the official primecoin wallet is you need an official primecoin wallet so claymore can connect to the actual wallet data file
check your immature coins. if you've found a block you should see 7.686 XPM in there. this takes 3200 confirmations to be usable.
to find out how many you've got, just hover over the recent transaction that has two hammers.

Start miner and see what messages it shows at starting, it will tell you what wallet you should use. v3.0 required custom wallet. Version v3.0b and newer requires standard official wallet.

[Claymore]

crazy how the solo miners fee is more than 10% more like 12% fee

Your math is wrong.

[Claymore]

What's new about v3.1b?

+5% faster than v3.0. v3.1 was unstable so I removed it.

Oh ok.

Do you have plans to optimize the miner with driver 14.3 and up?

Do you really need it? Why?

Solo Minning.

If a card has found 3 chains but no coins in wallet, means they were all orphaned?

I have 8 connections to primecoin network, how can I improve this?

[aikklond]

ok more important questions

1 7950 + 1 7870 work at max Difficulty 10.72 + they have both found chains

My other 7950 shows max difficulty 9.85 and has not found a chain for 24 hours... is this the problem? how can I fix this?

[a1binos]

on 280x all works perfect.
But if I use 290 or 290x - the farm hangs up in 1-5 minutes. Is there any solution for that?
The command line is the same for 280x or 290x:

NsXpmMiner.exe -o ypool.net -u user -p x -di 0 -sd 1

Nothing you can do but wait...

Miner must show "Blocks Total/Valid: 1/1" in details stats if you solved block. Finding 10ch chains does not mean that you found block, 10ch chain length must be > than Diff to solve block.

Just thought it might be a good idea to keep up with the new updated driver. The other miner gained some performance from it.

Ok, I'll check it

Is it normal for 1 7950 to have average CPD 8+ and the other one 0? This is after 12 hours of mining....

(you want to tell, what from number of connections of a purse at you dropped more?)

[Claymore]

An update will be available soon with good mining speedup for 280X, 270/270X and 7xxx cards.

[Strannik-74]

One gets the feeling that the more connections at the purse are the more blocks. While it was found 8 Connections 5 blocks, but one then disappeared.
