Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v11.3

[Mashy81]

Hello. I am fairly new to this, setting up a few machines to play with.

I am using your latest GPU version. Cannot get it to detect my GTX1050TI cards. I didn't think your miner supported NVidia cards at all, but I saw a post about GTX1060 cards and it was mentioned to try the new version.

Title of the thread should of gave it away......

They just don't play well with 580s even under linux. I just pulled a 560 and tossed it in a pile with my 550 and old HD cards; crap
.

Even the 570 grinds my gears, 580 or bust!

[ofpcarnage]

does this miner support RX vega 64?

hey thanks for anwser,

Thats what i thought

I have a rig with 12 gpus (RX 580 limited edition, all samsung memory).

When running cryptonote on 12 gpus, some of the gpus fail to hash and eventually crash the miner or the whole machine.

Even though when trying the same 12 gpus in batches of 6 cards per rig, the miner works perfectly fine.

Any idea what could be the issue?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

^^^ If I had to guess (I'm guessing) your cards have crappy Voltage Regulator Modules, I'm guessing you bought the only cards available and they were still in stock because they suck.

I just got stuck with asus 580s elpida, same issue... i can pack 19 msi cards in one rig if I can find stock...

Satori Malware Variant is Robbing ETH BitCoin by Replacing Wallet Address - Claymore Miner Compromised, Check your settings

Art of Steal: Satori Variant is Robbing ETH BitCoin by Replacing Wallet Address
17 JANUARY 2018 on Botnet, BitCoin, ETH BitCoin, Satori
The security community was moving very fast to take actions and sinkhole the Satori botnet C2 after our December 5 blog. The spread of this new botnet has been temporarily halted, but the threat still remains.

Starting from 2018-01-08 10:42:06 GMT+8, we noticed that one Satori’s successor variant (we name it Satori.Coin.Robber) started to reestablish the entire botnet on ports 37215 and 52869.

What really stands out is something we had never seen before, this new variant actually hacks into various mining hosts on the internet (mostly windows devices) via their management port 3333 that runs Claymore Miner software, and replaces the wallet address on the hosts with its own wallet address.

From the most recently pay record till 2018-01-16 17:00 GMT+8, we can see:

Satori.Coin.Robber is actively mining, with lastest update 5 minutes ago.
Satori.Coin.Robber owns an average calculation power of 1606 MH/s for the last 2 days; the account has accumulated 0.1733 ETH coins over the past 24 hours
Satori.Coin.Robber has already got the first ETH coin paid at 14:00 on January 11, 2017, with another 0.76 coin in the balance
Also worth mentioning is that the author of Satori.Coin.Robber claims his current code is not malicious and leaves an email address(see the section below for more details):

"Satori dev here, dont be alarmed about this bot it does not currently have any malicious packeting purposes move along. I can be contacted at curtain@riseup.net"  

A Series of Security Issues on Claymore Miner Remote Management

Claymore Miner is a popular coin-mining software used by quite a lot of mining devices these days.

According to its document, the Claymore Miner Windows version provides a remote monitoring and/or management interface on port 3333 (the EthMan.exe file in the “remote management” directory). And by default earlier versions allow not only remote reading for mining status, but also operations like restart, upload files and some other control operations.

Apparently, the above feature is a security issue. As a fix, after version 8.1, the Claymore Miner will not use port 3333 but -3333 (a negative one) as the startup parameter by default, which means read-only monitoring actions are supported, but other controlling actions are all denied.

But this is not the end. In November 2017, CVE-2017-16929 went public, which allows remote read and/or write to arbitrary files for Claymore Miner. The corresponding exploit code has also been disclosed.

The scanning payload (the exploit code) we are going to discuss here is different from all above though. It works primarily on the Claymore Mining equipment that allows management actions on 3333 ports with no password authentication enabled (which is the default config). In order to prevent potential abuse, we will not discuss too much details in this article..............

Hi all.  Got a question.
Using claymore amd gpu miner for mining monero.
When i check stats while mining i get total shares 272 (207+136).
This does not add up?

Am i missing something on how all this works?

Mining with 2 rx 580.  One is 4gb the other is 8gb.
4gb - core 1340, mem 1750
8gb - core 1260, mem 2250

All appears stable.

Ant advice would be great.  Mining on viaxmr for about 5 weeks.

Cheers

[notbatman]

^^^ go mine zclassic and buy a 580.

[Diggerz]

Claymore dude, I'm making the move to neoscrypt can't we get a multi-algorithm miner including this? Please merge all your miners!!!!

I don't care if Claymore merges all the multi-algorithms. I just want Claymore Neoscrypt software! All the other Linux Neoscrypt software sucks.

I had a similar issue when running memory clock over 1795.
When running memory clock at 1795 it hashes slower but gets more accepted shares then when it is set to above.

I just got stuck with asus 580s elpida, same issue... i can pack 19 msi cards in one rig if I can find stock...

I got the cards a while ago, and I got them directly from the official distributor in my country where they can only sell at the original retail price.
I dont think any sapphire nitro+ limited edition are bad, they are all ASIC 80%+, samsung memory, and probably the best performance for mining.

The thing is, I tried to split the rig into 2x 6 cards each, and they work perfectly fine (the same cards I used in a 12 gpu rig),, but putting them into 1 mobo (tried ASUS B250 mining expert, Biostar TB250 btc pro, and Asrock h110 pro btc+), some cards crash, so Im guessing either claymore doesnt do well with 12 gpu rigs, or there is something Im missing.

I got plenty of virtual memory.
tried higher end processors and more ram
lowered core n memory
tried stock bios with stock core/memory and voltage

sgminer-gm works with 12 cards and all is fine, but it hashes lower than claymore for me (900hs for sgminer, 1050hs for claymore).

Hi folks, I have a little problem running 2 x Sapphire RX570 nitro+ with Claymore CryptoNight Miner in AM.
One card has samsung/micron memory and the other just micron.
Both cards are setup correctly, as i get the expected 29+mhs on each card when using Claymore Ethereum, and 330+hs each when using Claymore Zcash. But when I mine with CryptoNight, the samsung card gets 1.04khs and the micron card only gets 0.88khs. Any idea as to why that would be?

Thanks in advance

Anyone notice how GPU prices are spiking since the first of the year? PSU's too.

We gonna have to charge more for our mined coins 

yeah its very noticeable, its way more exaggerating these days, talked to other suppliers they have similar words coming on their mouth, Demand is so High, No stocks, Price then Spikes.

You need to segment the GPU's into groups of 6 using the command line flag. You then run two instances of the miner on the same rig. Works good that way.

I was considering this solution, thanks for confirming it works!

Guys, I need help please!

I got an old GPU - AMD 6800 series 1GB.
The only program that gives me good hashrate is Claymore CryptoNote GPU Miner v9.7 Beta - POOL
It works well if i leave default pool address and wallet address.
But if i try to set my current pool and wallet it gives me errors or sometimes even crashes. "Wrong wallet address, pool deleted from list"

I am mining IntenseCoin(cryptonight), pool format that is used for intense coin is "stratum+tcp://45.32.171.89:4444" or "pool.intense.hashvault.pro:5555"

what can the problem be? is it just that this old program doesnt support new coins ? but what i can do?
and it seems that newer versions of claymore don't support radeons older than 7xxx (mine is 6xxx) ((((

this is what config looks like right now

-o stratum+tcp://45.32.171.89:4444

Dear Mr. Claymore:

We are using your software on a Supermicro System running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition, with AMD FirePro S9150 cards. We can install up to three S9150 cards on the MB, the Device Manager see the three cards after installing the AMD Radeon Drivers, but Claymore Miner sees only one card, not three.

We also tried a configuration of three Virtual Machines under VM Ware, assigning one card to each VM. The Miner works OK on the first VM, but do not see any card in the other two (Device Manager sees the card on each VM)

Any help will be greatly appreciated,

Hernan Moreno.
