Claymore's CryptoNote AMD GPU Miner v11.3

[OrientA]

The efficiency of the miner is very important. It is not profitable to mine BBR and XMR with GPU if the electricity price is over $.1/kWh.

Linux miner?

Not in the foreseeable future.

Not true, Claymore said "Linux version is almost ready".

He is working on the XCN miner now.

Miner began to show less speed. As if one card does not work, although writes that all the work. Help with a problem

Check if all cards find shares. If yes - check temp control or reboot pc.

Linux version - a bit more patience please. Right now I'm testing it in Cent 6.5. Miner is not opensource so you won't build it, it must work "as is" in binary form. Windows is much easier for binaries, in Linux I need to check what libs are required on different systems and create some help file. Otherwise it seems it will work only on latest Ubuntu, I don't think it's a good idea. I can release it right now but it will be like "alpha", not even "beta" and you'll spend a lot of your time in attempts to make it work.

QUESTION: Miner has no GPU temperature control feature yet, what software do you use for it in Linux? If it's a problem, I'll have to implement this feature at first.

Check sgminer/sph-sgminer/cgminer sources, ADL_SDK required. Heat control is necessary, I tried to mine bbr on linux but without temp and fun control I am afraid to run my GPUs. There is also amdconfig utility, but it does not work for me (can't set fan speed).

Yes I know how to do it, I released simple "GPU Control Utility" for Windows in past: https://mega.co.nz/#F!vhB2BCIA!ZuBRI_YyP-SztQnINK6xkA
The only problem is that it will take some additional time to add it into miner if there is no ready-to-use software for GPU temp control in Linux.

I'm running cgminer along with all GPUs disabled.

You cant do that because it will still take up the GPU memory

what are you doing to disable all the gpus? ive tried -disable-gpu on sgminer but card 0 still mines, im sick of using afterburner, its temp control is buggy on all my rigs and has a habit of just shutting the fans off when on auto. ive got them locked at 100% right now and its pretty loud.

I start it with GPU0 ("device" : "0", "intensity" : "1") and then after it's started I disable GPU0. You can do it manually in cgminer window. Of course until it's disabled GPU0 hash speed will be compromised but not by much. I actually wrote a ruby script to disable GPU0 through cgminer API but it's a bit unwieldy.

Any luck to set fan speed using amdconfig on Linux?

Even if they add cryptonight it doesn't mean that it is faster.
