If you have not actually done real world mining of raven and are only going off of some calculator on a website to determine that you wouls get only 80, then you are missing out. I get 80 with a 1 1080, 1 1060 and 1 1050. You should be doing well over 80, at least double that.

at what power consumption and what miner?

I get 112 odd a day with 3 x 1060,1 x 1070,1 x 1070 Ti. All at around 65-70% PL.

Im calculating again on whattomine... with 6gpu im earning 2.99$ on ravencoin and 4.50 $ on nicehash so how is ravencoin more profitable? im earning about 70-80 rvn per day

Nicehash is mining you BitCoin, which went down over $1000 in value in the last week. Roughly 13% drop.

RavenCoin is at $0.04 a coin, it's expected (or hoping) to at the very least break $1 one day.

So while today you are making $4.50 on Nicehash, that $4.50 became $3.91 after that 13% drop. Even if it climbed back up to $8000, you're back to $4.50 and even if it went back up to $9000, then you $4.50 became $5.08.

$2.99 of Raven coin today at $0.04 could end up being $74.75 (at $1 per coin) one day. That's why RavenCoin is worth it for us to mine. Could it never happen? Definitely. No one thought BitCoin would shoot up to $21,000 a coin. I doubt Raven will ever get close to that. But what if it went to a measly $10? Now that $2.99 in raven coin you mined PER DAY is worth $747.50.

That's the risk I'm taking with RavenCoin. I'm not doing it for money today but money tomorrow.

If you were to mine for 1 BitCoin, at $4.50 a day, it would take you 1509 days to earn $6,791 (todays value) If you were to get RavenCoin and it simply went to $1 a coin (74 coin a day) you would have only had to mine for 91 days to make the same $6,791. I know my math doesn't take into account difficulty increase, the point is to illustrate the difference in how to earn between BitCoin on NiceHash and mining RavenCoin.

I'd rather gamble on RavenCoin and earn as much in 91 days of mining then to play it safe and mine with NiceHash and have to wait 1509 days to earn the same potential amount.

Im mining on nicehash 4.5$ and buying rvn .so if i mine rvn i earn 30% less rvn... so from my calculations its much better to mine on nicehash. you are losing 30% profit a day

the point people are making is, you are either not making 4.5$ on nicehash, or your rigs are not optimized for raven and you don't earn enough raven for your config.

nicehash for all of us is about 30% LESS profitable then ravencoin, so what makes your case different? a single 1080TI makes me 1.1$ on nicehashwith powerlimite of 70%, 1.89 with 60% power limit on ravencoin. so besides higher profitable coin, it also consume less power.

can i suggest you make screenshots, write down configs, which miner, which pool etc, so we may be of assistance in getting you a better yield?

im mining with ccminer 64, 3x 1060, 1x 1050ti ,1x 1070 and 1x 980ti, about 70-80rvn per day with 70% power on all cards.i was mining 1 week ago 120 rvn per day.Why such a drop i dont know, atm its more profitable for me to mine on nicehash. If you go to whatmine its more money on nicehash

Something is wrong with your config. Your 3 1060s should be making 90 a day alone. The 1050ti should be able to pull 25 a day. A 1070 roughly 55. Not sure about a 980. But between your 10 series cards, that should make 180 rvn a day, that's $7.20 a day at $0.04 a coin.

If you have not actually done real world mining of raven and are only going off of some calculator on a website to determine that you wouls get only 80, then you are missing out. I get 80 with a 1 1080, 1 1060 and 1 1050. You should be doing well over 80, at least double that.

Try those 3 things:

Use the other version of SGminer!, the one that got the bounty as first amd miner
Be sure you Select the Platform correctly

If not

rename ( or delete ) the temporary bin file has been created in the directory.

If not

reset to stock all the card:

and then

Yeah i dont know what SG version i have now but this one is starting.

However next problem, it will crash after 5-10 minutes mining.

Temps are fine (around 65) and i am testing with -I 19 (also tried 16 but same sh1t), clocks are standard (no overclocks).

The miner will say that the speed: death or sick.

Hey there, I decided to remove the display of anything related to that. Let me explain why. x16r uses 16 hash functions randomized by the previous block. Whenever you submit a valid share it is because your miner received that hash function order, went through all 16 hash functions, got an output, and checked that output against the server/blockchain to confirm it was valid. Each hash function alone (skein, keccak, sha512, simd, etc) is executed in a very brief time (a few seconds at most, tenths of a second at the lower end). To display which hash function the miner is "currently" on would require printing at least 16 lines in between each accepted share. That is simply to much (in my opinion not extremely important) information to display on the console. Also considering that printing those lines every share is not computationally "free" I have decided I do not want it in my main build.

With that being said it is not an issue for me to compile a custom version for you with the line that displays the single character versions of the hash order.

"0123456789ABCDEF"

For example ^.

I didn't know it is that short of time of each hash function. In that case, it is best to not show them.
Thanks for the explanation.

That is the exact thought process I had

No problem

duno if the difficulty is just out of wack or what but this coin isn't remotely profitable or minable on " average hardware" as far as I can see.

Ravencoin was only CPU mineable in the beginning when there was no GPU miner released yet. Now there are thousands of miners with above average GPUs mining Ravencoin, all sharing a limited amount of block rewards.

You brought a GT 620 to a 1080 Ti farm fight.

Agreed. But this coin was originally intended for the average jo miner. The current implementation makes its purpose obsolete and kinda pointless was what I was pointing out. I understand the big farmers with 10 rigs speculating this coin for profitability. My point was if the coin cant do what it was intended to do then its value will likely not climb either as its intended purpose is false. Sure I could point my rigs at it, but IMHO I would be wasting my time as the coins premise is false and IMHO I don't think it will gain value. Essentially the big rig farmers are doing to this coin exactly what ASIC's do.

No matter the intention for Joe Miner, the nature of Crypocurrenting mining is that difficulties will always increase as more coin is mined.

The intebded purpose of Raven is much greater than to allow Joe Miner to mine it. That was a conscious effort to allow by making it ASIC resistent but there is more to a coin then the means of mining it.

My rig is stable for weeks on 100% po, will try to lower and see the diff.

You should see much lower temps and obviously lower electricity usage means more money!
And with all that your hash rate should not change by much if at all. But definitely experiment in the 60-80 range.

Yeah 80% PL is the best bet for lower energy usage and heat output. Also keeps the hardware running cooler which is great if you have your setup inside. I notice a significant reduction in heat output at 80% PL compared to 100% PL. Have to also imagine it uses much less power and is healthier for the gpu's.

I'd personally suggest to anyone to at least compare their rigs at 100% and 80%. You won't lose that much profit but the quality of life is vastly improved. I also set my fan speed to a consent level, depending on the gpu. This avoid the fans ramping up and down which just doesn't sound healthy for the fans and drives me crazy to hear.

Signed up and First post now but have been following Kai’s original ANN (Appreciate all the work Kai! Top work mate!) and mining since early feb and wanted to share my hashrate for future ref as I think big things of raven with the community

3x Zotac Gtx 1060 3gb = average 6.5-7.3 Mh/s each standard core +400 mem running at 67%
1x Gigabyte G1 Gaming Gtx = average 10.5-11.2 Mh/s each standard +200 mem running at 71%

Averaging around 30 Mh/s on suprnova using Suprminer (https://github.com/ocminer/suprminer)
Was using original ccminer and only hashing on average 17 Mh/s for the first month or so, made a decent amount of rvn then but times have changed

Jo guys, somebody here mining with AMD using the SGminer x16R version?

Here it was mining for a few minutes, drivers crashed and i can not get it work again.

Problem: miner close immeditaly after starting.

What i already tried:
- Look if the .bat file is wrong
- Create a .conf to run from
- Used DDU to uninstall all AMD related drivers
- Installed 1x newest AMD version + SDK package -> uninstalled again with DDU
- Installed 1x AMD Blockchain version + SDK package (both amd drivers i also tested without SDK package)
- Using the standard Windows 10 Pro AntiVirus -> also set the AV up so it avoid my sgminer folders

*i got 0 / NO problems with mining while using Claymore (for ZCASH / ETH), got no problems with xmrstak (cryptonight), i only got this problem with SGminer (tried different SGminer versions what are supporting x16r)

Somebody know the solution for this problem? I checked google, but my pool is correct, my username, my password, got no spaces or whatsoever what can be wrong..

Test system for Ravencoin:
full update Windows 10 Pro 64bit (official)
1x R9 290 Tri-X OC (AMD blockchain drivers, also tried the newest normall AMD drivers with the latest SDK package)
8GB DDR3
all running on an SSD

Using a clean .bat now for testing with the line: sgminer.exe -k x16r -o stratum+tcp://rvn.suprnova.cc:6667 -u joenn.thuis -p 1

Rig is stable on 100%, 80%, 60% pl. But, lower PL, lower the average hashrate on pool after few hours. So, I'm always on 100% PL since february.
Just watch your average hash on pool and you will see how lower PL, kills the hash....

Ravencoin Miner v2.2.2

Linux support is here!
https://github.com/Ravencoin-Miner/Ravencoin/releases

v2.2.2
Added required files and permissions to source code to compile on Linux.
Windows release is the same as v2.2

Kraww!
https://imgur.com/a/Zw97u

v2.2
Kraww!
Added estimate for RVN earned per day (displays every 5th share)
Cleaned up Display:
-Removed hash order display
-Removed first algorithm display
-Removed Core clock, GPU temp, and GPU fan speed display, now only displays Efficiency (kH/W) and Power (W)
-(Afterburner and other programs display this better anyways)
-Note: Only removed display, the code to monitor these values is unaffected and any options related to them should be available.

Anyone knows how to display current mining algorithm with this miner ?

Thanks!

Hey there, I decided to remove the display of anything related to that. Let me explain why. x16r uses 16 hash functions randomized by the previous block. Whenever you submit a valid share it is because your miner received that hash function order, went through all 16 hash functions, got an output, and checked that output against the server/blockchain to confirm it was valid.

To display which hash function the miner is "currently" on would require printing at least 16 lines in between each accepted share. That is simply to much (in my opinion not extremely important) information to display on the console. Also considering that printing those lines every share is not computationally "free" I have decided I do not want it in my main build.

With that being said it is not an issue for me to compile a custom version for you with the line that displays the single character versions of the hash order.

'Linux' support?

Or ubuntu support? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop using the term linux as being ubuntu.

Compile in RHEL based systems also and you will have our interest in our farm. Fedora 27 x64 and Centos 7 x64.

Until then, you have UBUNTU support which is only ONE linux distribution, NOT a blanket 'linux support'.

Would be appreciated.

If you need us to compile for you, we can.

#crysx

Hey, I am very sorry for that mistake. I actually had someone assist me over discord in even getting Ubuntu support (thanks again for correction) as I only have Windows and I don't know much about the difference between Linux and Ubuntu.

I would really appreciate you helping me get my miner compiled to at least support the OS your farm is running. Message me on discord @--Banshee#1413 or PM me here

Thanks for the offer.

Interested, any comparison against other miners? I have been mining with Enemy/Suprnova, so far seems good, seems to be the most used Miner at the moment, at least on Ravenminer pool.

Sorry I do not have any direct comparisons with Enemy miner as I do not personally run enemy miner.
Feel free to post some though if you can!

Just started with your latest windows version, in a few hours will see how the coins move, im still on suprnova pool, it might not be a 100% fair comparison as difficulty and hashrates varies almost by the minute.

Any particular settings/OC you recommend? i have a few different rigs, have basically every Nvidia card from 1060 3GB up to 1080TI.

Thanks.

Awesome thanks for giving it a shot! Please let me know your results.
I recommend as much core OC you can get as long as its stable. I use +125.
+500 memory OC (Some people use 0, or even -502. Experiment with this one yourself. But core is most important)
60% power
70C temp limit

Also, Ravencoin Miner has been updated to v2.3. This build contains a fix for the miner not submitting valid shares when the Hamsi hash function was the first hash function in the hash order and this nets around a 6% increase in overall hash rate.

Ravencoin Miner: an optimized open source miner created specifically for Ravencoin.
v2.3
Fix miner not submitting shares when Hamsi was first Hash function!
6% increase in overall hash rate!
v2.2.2

https://github.com/Ravencoin-Miner/Ravencoin/releases

Why the 60% power limit advice, can you elaborate on that please? I would think that 100% power limit is more stable and is more profitable, (while using more electricity of course).

Most people have noticed that the extra power is not totally necessary with x16r. But yea in reality I should have said around 60-80% power is good for most people. I just like lower temps for running 24/7. And my gpu is inside my case so not the best air flow.

I have been running 60% power for a few weeks now and it has been totally stable for me. The un-stability comes in if your core clock or memory clock is to high.
Feel free to experiment with your own settings obviously

my settings we just stable settings I have been running with solid results
