Hi Patrik,

we have a problem with profit-switching with the new stratum from nicehash: stratum+tcp_//sha256asicboost_eu_nicehash_com:3368
if we force a miner to use the pool with this configuration, the miner makes 0.00051120 BTC / 24h regarding nicehash
but in AM the profit-switching shows 0 BTC and so a giant loss?!

BR Ralf
Hi Ralf,
Is the scenario that you have an entry for Nicehash Asicboost in the Options dialog, Online Services section, that looks something like this?
Algorithm: SHA-256
URL-base: nicehash.com:3368
Algorithm URL part: sha256asicboost
API Identifier: 35


Hi Patrik,

no - should i?
we have the problem with S9...

BR Ralf
Hi Ralf,
Please try to add a new entry like above and let me know if the profit calculations works better.

Hi Patrik,

yes - thank you that helped immediatly...

Here are the new features for this release:

  • New kernels for Navi (RX5700) with better stability. Should solve the freezing and restarts that some miners are experiencing with Navi cards
  • Reduced VRAM usage for both AMD and Nvidia cards on Windows and Linux
  • Added command-line option -config to load a config.txt file. This allows combining command-line options and config.txt file.
  • Added support for mining QuarkChain (QKC) without DAG switching on devfee (use -coin qkc)
  • Added support for the latest AMD Windows drivers 19.9.3
  • Other small improvements and fixes.

When using the new -config option, please note the following:
  • The order of the options is important. For example, if we have a config.txt file that contains -cclock 1000 and we specify command line -cclock 1100 -config config.txt, the option from the config.txt file will take precedence and the resulting -cclock will be 1000. If the order is reversed (-config config.txt -cclock 1100) then the second option takes precedence and the resulting -cclock will be 1100.
  • Only one -config option is allowed
  • If you reload the config file with 'c' key or with the remote interface, its options will take precedence over whatever you have specified in the command-line.

AW not show RPM for RTX2080 TI cards. Tested on Palit and ASUS
For nVidia RTX 2000-series, Awesome Miner is currently limited to displaying the fan speed in percent only. Fan RPM is not supported. I do know that some monitoring tools can display RPM for the 2000-series as well, but I've not found any documentation about how to support it.

@Patrike I have MicroBT Whatsminer M20S problem - when i try to change pools or restart miner it doesnt react. API access is privileged, ssh unlocked. AM is trying to remove pools and change to selected but fails to do so.
I was recently investigating M20s with another user. The M20 and M21 miners are restricting external applications from making any operations like restart and pool changes - even when they state they have privileged API access. This is a limitation Whatsminer built in to their firmware for security reasons. I've been in contact with Whatsminer for this and I also have other users that reached out to them.

It turns out that they do have another firmware in the pipeline where they do allow these kind of operations. One of my users recently got this firmware by contacting the Whatsminer product support, but it turned out to still have some limitation so they are waiting on Whatsminer for another update.

I don't have a more detailed answer to this right now, but as soon Whatsminer release a firmware update where they allow pool changes and similar operations over their API - it will work with Awesome Miner as well.

hello patrike,

I want to suggest adding an option, that would allow to configure and use two profit switching intervals together, but with different switch thresholds.

the idea is..
  • - to have a big default/normal switching interval (60+ minutes), with a low switching threshold (2..3 %) or without a threshold at all
  • - to have a second (very) short switching interval (2..5 minutes for example), that will force the profit switch when profitability difference between the current pool and new best profit pool is high (15..20+ %),

then with default profit switching interval Awesome Miner won't switch from pool to pool too often, and miners will have enough time for their hashrate to be counted by pool.
 
but..
  • - if the some pool profitability spikes and becomes at least 15..20% higher than current - it will take max 2..5 minutes (small interval duration) to perform the switch;
  • - similarly, it would allow to quickly leave the current pool, if its profitability has suddenly dropped because of diff increase, etc..

what do you think about this? Smiley

thanks
Thanks for the suggestion. I agree that this could be a good improvement to the profit switching logic, with two levels of profit switching conditions. There will have to be some changes to support this, but I will for sure consider it as a future improvement.

Hi @patrike

Can you add a button to a GPU miner object like a "Ignore overclocking settings from profit profile"
That will be a very helpful if some GPU work wrong and must be maintained.
If i can central switch off a settings for a miner, I no need to change overclocking settings for each algo in profit profile.

Regards
One workaround for this scenario would be to define a new clocking profile (Options dialog, GPU Clocking Profile) where you only perform a single operation like Reset. You can then configure your Managed Profit Miner to use this specific clocking profile and it will no longer use the clocking settings from the Profit Profile.

still need propper support for xmrrig cpu miner, basicaly a new tab that shows cpus and their
im still running ny cpus on loki outside of the app.  Randomx is going to be really big but you guys are really behind on your cpu mining bits
The last part of the first line in your post was missing. Is it better CPU temperature display you are looking for? Today those are only displayed on the System tab if the Remote Agent is running as Admin. Was it on the CPU tab you wanted additional information?

Please let me know the details of your request and I will of course look into if it can be supported and improved. Please also let me know if it's some specific command line feature missing that forces you to start the mining outside of Awesome Miner. Thanks!

-well for one when you go to coins you don’t see randomx or it’s variants listed for instance you still have loki with the old algo, so you can’t even set it up for the profit dashboard
-we need a separate tab like gpus and asics have that lets you see what cpu rigs are added as profit miners, hash rate pool display temps acceppted etc just like how gpus and asic are handled, basically tread the cpu miner like
how you treeat an asic or gpu rig
Loki is still reported with the old algorithm from CoinCalculators.io. For WhatToMine it's correct with RandomXL but currently not in their main listing (but will probably be soon). To add it manually, please go to the Options dialog, Statistics Provider section and add this WhatToMine JSON URL:
https://whattomine.com/coins/249.json
Now Loki will show up with the RandomXL algorithm.

The next issue here is that Loki requires an Exponental Factor of 0 instead of 32 to display the profit information correctly. I will make this adjustment in the next release. It can also be configured for the Loki coin on the Coins tab, where the Properties dialog for Loki will allow you to set the Exponental Factor to 0.

Thanks for the suggestions as well. In the miner list a Managed Miner or Managed Profit Miner based on CPU mining software like XmRig or CpuMiner-Opt is displayed very similar to how a GPU miner is displayed. There are already a separate tab for CPU's at the bottom of the screen, but it's not as detailed as for GPU/ASIC miners. Missing temperature display is one limitation for example and would be something that should be improved. Just like for GPU mining, all mining software doesn't support reporting accepted/rejected shares per device - only as a total number.

thanks for looking in to this, im trying to build up a cpu farm , upgrading all the cpus on my 25 rigs to mine randomx so  a tab for cpus would be far more easy to manage , watch the details and start/stop them , switch coins or pools similar to asics and gpus. Ill play around thought and see what i can get out of the current client
