Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v11.3

[VladimirT]

Hi everybody !


I have seen that somes of you reach 1400H/s with a vega56
I get 1000H/s max (default firmware, no OC...)
I use AMD n°23.20.782.259 drivers.

Could you explain me how to have the same results ?
Which Drivers do you use ? Which Firmware ?
Which software to configure it ?
Which parameters in Claymore ?

Thanks by advance !

Step 1 : Dont use Claymore's miner for Vega (use xmr stak miner or cast miner)
Step 2 : Google HDCC Activator, set it up to enable disable the Vega cards on each boot
Step 3 : Enjoy 1900h/s

really? HDCC activator for what?

Think he meant HBCC Activator (B not D), and for activating the High Bandwidth Cache Controller to increase your hashrate.

How are you checking your wallet to see if you've been paid? I think you need to pay and scan the blockchain (or maybe I'm thinking of something else). If you know there is 23 ETN in there why don't you try sending the command to transfer it onto Cryptopia and see what happens - unless I've totally misread the situation.

I'm checking it by running electroneumd and syncing my computer to the blockchain, then opening the wallet and checking my balance. You can see in the first screenshot my balance is zero, I have also checked incoming payments and there arent any. If you look at the second two screenshots in my post above, payment has been sent from 2 different pools

Have you properly imported the paper key? I followed all the expected steps and synced my wallet with 126 ETN in it on my desktop at work. Your last screenshot shows 'refresh done, blocks received: 0' - it looks like your firewall isn't allowing you to communicate with the blockchain.

you don't need it. all of you need -> disable and enable each of your cards in device manager before start miner. Or you can write bat file for automatic reactivation at start up . Good Luck.

AMD HIS R7 260X iPower IceQ X2 2 GB  does not work  on GPU Miner v10.2 Beta

no ASM binary  found

Readme says

This version is for recent AMD videocards only: 7xxx, 2xx, 3xx and 4xx, 1GB or more.

What can I do?

Use 9.7 or buy a newer GPU. R7 260X can’t be hashing that much these days, is it even worth it?

3 of my cards are hanging on OpenCL call after a few minutes of use (one of them hangs just at the beginning), when using this miner. When I mine ethereum with the claymore dualminer everything works fine. What am I doing wrong?
I'm running the linux version on Ubuntu 16.04 with latest AMD drivers and 10x RX580 cards. Motherboard is ASROCK H110 ProBTC+ and I've got 4gb of RAM.

Dial back your memory clocks. Cryptonote is more memory sensitive than Ethereum, it’s more memory dependent and less on the core - that’s where I’d start anyway. 10 cards in one rig seems like asking for trouble anyway! Failing that can you not mine Ethereum (if that works) and exchange it to whatever it was you do want?

There's nothing troublesome about 10 cards in one rig, I normally stick 12. My 12gpus mixed rigs on dual eth are all fine. AMD + Nvidia are a tiny bit less stable (may do occasional reboot in a few days)

What's the easiest way to spot which card is which in Claymore? I have 2 XFX and 4 PowerColor and I'm having athough time trying to overclock them. With core voltage 950, 2 cards stop working already.

I’m not criticising you, just most rigs are 6 cards and there obviously is trouble as you’ve just said there was! If it’s fine in Ethereum but not in Cryptonote, I would still look at the memory clocks or possibly the risers if a problem occurs.

Hey Claymore!

Any word on an update to this?  Us pitcairn folks really want to use 10.2 but are stuck using 9.7

Thanks for all you do!

I think the answer is gonna be ‘get with the times’. Pitcairn/Curacao is GCN 2 and we’re on Vega which is GCN 5 so 3 generations behind. Personally I’m going to rebuild my rigs, put all the Pitcairn cards into one rig and run 9.7 on it. I’ve had enough of this 10-30% incorrect shares and it’s obviously (and quite reasonably) not a high priority for him.

[Pilchard]

To anyone having Issues with their Electroneum wallet showing 0 balance,  create a shortcut for the cli.exe   and open it's properties and add --restore-deterministic-wallet to the end of the target address so it looks like this

"electroneum-wallet-cli.exe --restore-deterministic-wallet"

That should fix it.

You could also try the rescan_bc command.

I'll let him speak for himself.  He included updates to Pitcairn in his latest release, there was just a bug, and he works on his own time as he gets a chance.  Perhaps he likes the challenge, perhaps he doesn't. 

The pitcairn series are still solidly profitable with the right bios mods, there's still quite a few people using them. Far more than the number of people using vegas.

I have tried to install blockchain drivers after uninstalling the others but I got some issues :
the PC freezes or the last card is not recognized or drivers do not install at all...

Config :
Win10 64bit
Asrock H81
8Go
120Go SSD (40Go for virtual memory )
5 Vega56

It’s up to you. I’m just posting based on what I’ve seen and think as I also use Pitcairn. There has been 3 releases since 9.7 and other than him acknowledging an issue, nothing has been done to resolve it so you can presume it isn’t a high priority. Especially when we know 9.7 is stable just a little slower and more power hungry.

I didn’t say Vega was more popular but consider Polaris then.

I am using 9.7 due to old cards that are not supported by 10.2 (Cayman)
Suddenly started to receive many rejected shares with error

{"id":4,"jsonrpc":"2.0","error":{"code":1,"message":"Shareabovetarget."}}

using nicehash-eu pool
Please help to find what's the problem.

All users running Cryptonote on Nicehash are getting the error on 9.7 and 10.2. It's not to do with 9.7 it's something to do with Nicehash's servers (difficulty too low/high being set?), it's on Reddit at the moment. I was going to try and switch location as I'm EU, to USA or elsewhere if it continues indefinitely as I'm losing about 25% hashpower to rejected shares.

I will release an update for dual miner in 1-3 days, then I will have some time for this miner.

did you uninstall the old drivers in safe mode?
also if you run into lot of troubles better start over with win 10 clean install, than follow this guide step-by-step https://vegamining.blogspot.com

I feel it is something to do with difficulty change. Series of rejected shares begin when Nicehash changes difficulty.

Dual Cryptonight miner? Cryptonight along with what?

I believe that he's talking about his ETH dual miner.
It would be nice to see a CryptoNote dual miner, as he mentioned that it's theoretically possible, but he seems to be very busy right now. Maybe someday in the future.

It was their Nicehash EU (SSL) servers, switching to the USA servers resolved it.
