Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v11.3

[Cubirez]

Any nvidia support?

Claymore's cryptonight GPU miner is AMD only.

The best Nvidia cryptonight miner I have been able to find is a version of CCminer.

If you download the nicehash miner package, then let it download all it's miners, then look in it's "bin" folder you will find one called ccminer_cryptonight.exe. You will also need to copy all the cuda .dll files it needs and pthreadVC2.dll and put them all in a folder with the miner.

my .bat file looks like this:

ccminer_cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://asia1.monero.miningpoolhub.com:20580 -u *my username* -p *my password*

With my gtx1070 using about half it's power (75watts) it does about 500h/s.

I have read some people saying that you can get 700+ out of a 1070 but I don't know what miner they are using or if I need to add some flags I don't know about, but that's what I have managed.

In fact if you own an nvidia GPU you'd be better off mining ZEC as Nvidia GPU perform well on Zcash algorithm so you will have a better profitability mining that coin.

hey guys,
i have 4 rx 480 nitro+ 8giga sapphire cards with each card an old power supply 300Watt.
i use the 1500 Straps and get average 3000 h/s with 510Watt from the wall.
i am using claymore miner with following settings : -p x -a 4 -tt 70 -cclock 1160 -mclock 1930 -cvddc 917 -mvddc 917

My problem now is that the miner only runs for a couple of hours , then the computer just reboots and restarts miner.
after a few restarts nothing works anymore. then i need to pull the plug and put it back in and it runs again.

has this something to do with my settings? or is it just the power supplies that can not handle it?

please advise

You have 4x one card systems?

There can be many reasons for the instability. Maybe it's the miner, I recall having some difficulties using miner's settings cclock, mclock, cvddc 917 and mvddc. I went to use watttool instead and it proved more stable. Maybe it's your cards: you can try increasing core voltage a bit.

4 cards on 1 motherboard. But every card has its own 300 watt PSU. I flashed to cards to 1750 straps and did not change anything else, miner settings I changed to standard. It does not run longer then 1 or 2 hours. I now have it running with only 1 card, and others disabled in the miner. Let's see if it runs longer. Maybe there is a problem with one of the PSU. What PSU are u using? And for how many cards?

4 Mobo for 4 GPU is quite a weird design :p

I'm using a single 1000W PSU to power 6 rx470 4GB GPU (the total power draw is about 600W so a 1000W PSU is quite optimal).

1 Mobo for 4 cards with each there own PSU. That's how it is now. Also I am testing 1 card mining and it's stable now for 3 hours. I am going to disable card 1 and test with card 2... Like this I want to figure out if I have a bad PSU on 1 of the cards...

just tested 3 cards separatly and they all mine perfect. When i want to run 2 cards together it crashes after some time ... so would this be something with PSU or with MOBO? its defenatly hardware related. i know i could easily fix it with buying a 6 pci motherboard ( asrock h81 pro btc ) and with a PSU of 1200 watts but i try to mine with hardware that i have available for free here at my home. so again , setup is 3 cards on 1 mobo and each card has its own 300 W PSU and the mobo has its own 300 w PSU. pci riser of each card is connected to the PSU from that card ...

please help

Hi there! Is there GNU/Linux version of the miner exists? If not, what would you recommend for GNU/Linux with RX480 cards?

As far as i know there is no up-to-date linux version of this Miner. For linux you can try sg-miner GM which should be more or less on par with Claymore.
Another option is to mine Ethereum where you have quite a few miner with linux versions, including Claymore.

What cards are you trying to use?

A 300W PSU is no good for mining and you said you are daisy chaining like 4 PSU?

Why would you do that? Add2Psu is like £20 each and you have 4! Or are you doing some of your own wiring hacks?

I would say undoubtedly a power issue, however, you didn't say what mobo.

I wanted to make a miner of old computers that I have at home. I used an old Mobo anf 5 old PSU 300 w. Only the 4 Rx 480 nitro 8g are new. But I just bought a Corsair HX 1200i. Hope this gets it stable, otherwise I need to buy new Mobo

I am hopeful that your issue will be solved with good power  

I just had a IBM 2880W PSU arrive in the post - most issues I have ever come across during mining have had a PSU, power or heat issue at the root.

Corsair HX 1200i is a good PSU. Should be more than enough.

yeah PSU is fine now , but i still get unexpected crashes. I have a windows 10 version but it is not activated ... also i dasbled windows updates ( it crashed once because it was updating ) and this morning it crashed again , and when i looked in windows event viewer , it says that the pc restarted because of a bugfix ... but it just crashed and does not restart. Could this be the mobo ? thats still an old shitty 4 pci mobo.

i have flashed the 4 rx 480 cards to 1500 mem straps , and in claymore i have set the CPU to 1160mhz / 917 mv   and the mem to 1930 mhz / 917 mv ...       could this be causing windows crashing because of bugfix ?

this bugfix issue is the last problem i need to fix to have a stable mining rig

Claymore's miner has got some logs. Maybe you can take a look into these.

You can also try to increase VDDC and MVDDC

the logs look fine , no abnormal issues ... i cant see a gpu problem or so. i will reinstall windows 10 , then disable windows update again and windows defender. install the catalyst 15.12  ( currently i have the newest running , i heard 15.12 is more stable ) and i will set up the claymore miner with 1500 straps but no undervolting. i want to see it running stable for more then 6 hours ... any more suggestions i can or should take care of?

usualy i would blame risers or psu, ive been mining on old mobos without problems atm im also using unactivated win 10 for months so thats not it, just make sure to turn off autoupdates, most stable driver for me is 16.9.2 im running all 35 gpus on it, but as it was said here couple of times claymore has stability issues with rx cards, thats why for one am using wolf atm. If You are working with clocks and uv i would recommend watttool not afterburner or typing values into claymore config

i have flashed the 4 rx 480 cards to 1500 mem straps , and in claymore i have set the CPU to 1160mhz / 917 mv   and the mem to 1930 mhz / 917 mv ...       could this be causing windows crashing because of bugfix ?

this bugfix issue is the last problem i need to fix to have a stable mining rig

Claymore's miner has got some logs. Maybe you can take a look into these.

You can also try to increase VDDC and MVDDC

the logs look fine , no abnormal issues ... i cant see a gpu problem or so. i will reinstall windows 10 , then disable windows update again and windows defender. install the catalyst 15.12  ( currently i have the newest running , i heard 15.12 is more stable ) and i will set up the claymore miner with 1500 straps but no undervolting. i want to see it running stable for more then 6 hours ... any more suggestions i can or should take care of?

15.12 wont work with RX series You will need 16.x and if i remember correctly for 480's better copy 1750 straps

Ok thx. Yes I tried with 1750 straps and get a higher speed 800hash but when undervolting I draw less power at 750 hash with the 1500 straps. U think it could be the Mobo as well? Maybe I need to buy a cheap more recent 4pci Mobo?

usualy i would blame risers or psu, ive been mining on old mobos without problems atm im also using unactivated win 10 for months so thats not it, just make sure to turn off autoupdates, most stable driver for me is 16.9.2 im running all 35 gpus on it, but as it was said here couple of times claymore has stability issues with rx cards, thats why for one am using wolf atm. If You are working with clocks and uv i would recommend watttool not afterburner or typing values into claymore config

ok thx very much, i will do clean install of windows ( without rx cards plugged in mobo ) , dissable updates , instal 16.9.2 drivers , then plug in all the cards and see if they connect. after that i will reflash them to 1750 straps and do another test with claymore without undervolting or changing anything ... then if they not run stable i need to overthinkg everything again...

error i got in claymore :
OC v7, Reset control for GPU 12, close miner right now if you want to use default control from Catalyst

error i see in windows event viewer :

first error in windows has something to do with rights
second error is that the pc reboots after bugcheck ...


suggestions?

[wacko]

suggestions?

One suggestion: stop polluting this thread with crap that has nothing to do with Claymore's CryptoNote miner. PSU/motherboard issues, Windows reinstalling etc - all of that is offtopic here. People here signed up to get updates from this topic because they're interested in this miner's development and things related to running this particular miner - instead we have to read general nonsense about your hardware problems. There are other topics in these forums where you can ask your questions, you'll get better answers there and we won't have to read your off topic posts here.
