Thanks for the update. So when you use the GPU ID mapping and set GPU 3 to have lower clock speed, this doesn't take effect? When using MSI Afterburner UI directly, it works fine?

It's possible to verify the clocking operations that Awesome Miner send to MSI Afterburner Remote Server. Via the Awesome Miner Remote Agent log file (toolbar: Tools -> Log File -> Remote Agent) you can search for "Executing GPU clocking command" and see what numbers Awesome Miner is using. This could be good to get an understanding of where it goes wrong.

Clocking for Remote Agent on Linux will be supported in the future. The idea is to also add support for overdriventool and nvidiainspector on Windows.

Correct, it doesn't appear to work using GPU ID either.  I tried disabling MSI Afterburner Remote Server for this particular rig by renaming the folder containing the executable, but that caused the rig to become unresponsive after a few minutes of mining.  What's the best way to disable Remote Server Agent on a specific miner for testing purposes?

I take a look at the log fine.  Great news about clocking for Linux agent and nvidiainspector support!
What you could try is to let the Afterburner Remote Server run, but right click on the systray icon for it and change the connection password - then Awesome Miner will send the commands but they will be rejected.

Patrike,

I have a Geforce RTX 2080 FE card, I've noticed that the fan speed is not being reported in Awesome Miner in the lower window, any chance for that to be addressed ?

Thanks.

P.S  This might be a limitation of the miner programs, maybe the Devs for these can fix that as well.

I have several cards in groups. I can not see how much they have the total power consumption, only the hashrate is visible.
Please add to the Coins tab in the profile hashrate column also the total power. It will be just great. Thank.

A suggestion about T-rex, I should add two different ones, the optimized one for cuda 9.2 which is the one that brings by default AM and the one optimized for Cuda 10, I have all my rigs in cuda 10

one thing I need to understand is why the hell does the miner keep trying to mine neoscrypt when its less profitable by all the oline calculators than x16r

its not the power setting becase I set my power cost to zero
If you right click on the miner and select View Details - is the Profit Switching tab indicating that Neoscrypt is on top based on your profile hashrate?

yes it does say that but on all the online calculators its x16
then you should check your stats provider settings and profit profiles. either the hashrate for neoscrypt in your profit profile is exaggerated, or the profit estimate from your pool/provider is wrong.

hey patrike.
many miners report 0 C temperature for GPUs which stopped responding for some reason (became "lost").



I've tried to create a rule that could take care of these cases (perform actions like restart the miner/reboot the rig/etc) without success.
the trigger "temp less than 1 C" doesn't work in this case, and for some reason '0 C' temp is not accepted in this trigger.

any solutions? Smiley
As a workaround you can catch this with "Detect device count, less than or equals: 7". Most time this works, but not when the miner hangs in a damn loop and restarts unlimit time (T-Rex for example always tries to start with the full 8 cards, shows an error and then restart).
it could work, but I have 40 miners added to AM and setting up a rule for each one will be a pain for sure. hoping for a better solution.

Hello,

Run Batch commands before starting miner HELP.  I am trying to run a OverdriveN Tool batch file to set OC and voltage.   The file runs perfectly on the machine if i launch it.  But when i try from Managed Miner Properties>batch Commands>Execute additional commands before starting the mining software.  It appears to open and close the .bat never allowing it to complete and apply the OC Profiles. I must need some type of wait command.
My command
C:\Users\XXXX\Desktop\OverdriveN\RUNONT.bat

Thanks.

If you use the GPU name Awesome Miner must be able to get the names from MSI Afterburner, but in your case you only get "GPU 0" and so on without the name.

Can you please try to apply the updated fix for MSI Afterburner Remote Server, listed at the bottom of this page?
https://support.awesomeminer.com/support/solutions/articles/35000086015-gpu-overclocking

I know a few other users that were able to resolve the GPU name problem by applying the updated DLL-file.

Thanks Patrik.  That took care of the issue with the GPU names not showing up properly.  However, Afterburner Remote Server reports all 7 cards as being identical as follows:

GPU 0: GeForce GTX 1080Ti
GPU 1: GeForce GTX 1080Ti
GPU 2: GeForce GTX 1080Ti
GPU 3: GeForce GTX 1080Ti
GPU 4: GeForce GTX 1080Ti
GPU 5: GeForce GTX 1080Ti
GPU 6: GeForce GTX 1080Ti

And while that is technically true, GPU 3 is very different in that is an EVGA FTW3 Hybrid as opposed to just an EVGA SC2, so it has different PL and Core boost requirements.

I use wish Afterburner would allow you to set specific PL and Core clocks like how it is typically done under Linux.  Speaking of which, will GPU clock profiles be supported in the Linux Remote Agent at some point?

Awesome Miner version 5.7.4

 GPU mining
  - Display warning on the Summary tab for miners with old nVidia drivers not supporting the latest CUDA version
  - Diagnostics feature improved and includes OS and driver information
 Configuration
  - External Miners can be configured with a Profit profile without having to enable profit switching
 Rules
  - Triggers using the concepts Greater/Less Than or Equals also includes support for Greater/Less Than
 Mining software
  - Added mining software: Zjazz CUDA miner, for X22i
  - WildRig Multi Miner 0.12.5 beta
 Corrections
  - Correction to the default pool configuration of Antminers
  - Correction to revenue calculations for a number of coins based on Equihash variants


SO what do we do with the error : no pool avaiable for benchmark ?

I get that for like 9 algos including the new one X22i , sonaa

and all the equihash forks

How do I fix this ? , I know blockmasters has x22i for sure why does it not allow benchmark , same with the equihash 192 etc
because they are not included in default Online Services list yet, but you can add them manually.

not same with sonoa and equihash192, predefined pools do not support them.

@patrike you can consider adding NLPool, Phi-Phi-Pool and Starpool as predefined Yiimp-type pools in place of Zergpool, which is gone now. they all support autoexchange to BTC wallet.
Awesome Miner can automatically populate entries on the Online Services tab when for example Block Masters add support for the X22i algorithm. The feature of predefined pools made available to the profit switcher is however not as dynamic, but I will include these X22i pools by default in the next release.

You are correct that some algorithms are simply not supported by any of the predefined pools.

I'm also considering adding more of these yiimp-based pools and I think Phi-Phi is next on the list.

For those that manually want to add more of these yiimp-based pools, please see the guide:

I'm running all my rigs as Managed Profit Miners.  Most of my rigs contain identical GPUs, but I do have a few that are mixed, and I'm having a hard time getting different clock profiles to work consistently with them

I have my Profit Profiles and Groups already setup, and they are as follows:

Profit Profiles

GTX 1050Ti
GTX 1060 3GB
GTX 1070
GTX 1070Ti
GTX 1080
GTX 1080Ti

Profit Profile Groups (these are my mixed rigs other than one that is a mix of air and water 1080Tis discussed below)

1x 1050Ti 1x 1070Ti
2x 1070 x1 1080Ti
1x 1070 1x 1080

For Profit Profiles, I figured it would not be necessary to distinguish between Air and Water Cooled GPUs.  Agreed?

For GPU Clocking Profiles on the other hand, I have created different profiles for Air vs. Water cooled GPUs since they require different settings.  So I have the following:

GTX 1050Ti ETH
GTX 1050Ti Standard
GTX 1060 3GB ETH
GTX 1060 3GB Standard
GTX 1070 ETH
GTX 1070 Standard
GTX 1070 Hybrid ETH
GTX 1070 Hybrid Standard
GTX 1070Ti ETH
GTX 1070Ti Standard
GXT 1080 Hybrid ETH
GTX 1080 Hybrid Standard
GTX 1080Ti ETH
GTX 1080Ti Standard
GTX 1080Ti Hybrid ETH
GTX 1080Ti Hybrid Standard

So I have this one rig with a mix of 1080Ti's that are air cooled and one that is a hybrid.  The GPUs are as follows according to AM:

GPU0 EVGA 1080Ti SC2
GPU1 EVGA 1080Ti SC2
GPU2 EVGA 1080Ti SC2
GPU3 EVGA 1080Ti FTW3 Hybrid
GPU4 EVGA 1080Ti SC2
GPU5 EVGA 1080Ti SC2
GPU6 EVGA 1080Ti SC2

I created a Clocking profile group with 6x 1080Ti Standard profiles and 1x 1080Ti Hybrid Standard.  I arranged the GPUs in the profile to match what is shown in the table above by simply entering 0 - 6 for each GPU.  But apparently I'm doing something wrong since all 7 GPUs share the same clock and power settings and after a short while the miner software is restarted by AM since the FTW3 hybrid keeps falling over because the clocks are too high given the much factory OC of the FTW3 card compared to the SC2's.

When I look at this mining rig in the GPU tab, I can clearly see that the clock on the FTW3 is about 80 MHz higher than the other 6 and it also uses about 40 more Watts.  When I click GPU settings/settings via Awesome Miner and MSI Afterburner... I can confirm that all 7 GPUs share the exact same power and clock settings, which is why the FTW3 runs higher than the rest.  When I click the Profile drop down, the Clocking Profile Group I created is not in the list to choose from.  So how do I associate a Clocking profile group to a particular miner?

Do I have to create a Profit Profile specifically to this mining rig instead of using the regular GXT 1080Ti Profit Profile that I use for all my 1080Ti Air cooled only rigs?

That appears to be the only way I can then select this "custom" 1080Ti Profit Profile, from within which I can then select the Clocking Profile Group I created for individual algos.

EDIT: So I went ahead and created a Profit Profile called GTX 1080Ti Mix and within it, I selected my Clocking profile group with 6x 1080Ti and 1x 1080Ti hybrid.  I then went to this miner and changed the miner properties to point to the new Profit profile I created.  I restarted the miner, but it is still showing all 7 GPUs at 80% and +120 Core.

EDIT2:  I changed to match on GPU Name instead of ID.  Still didn't work.  Here are some pic of my config:

https://ibb.co/jo0hYA

https://ibb.co/mLh1RV

https://ibb.co/iUQufq

https://ibb.co/nJyrRV

https://ibb.co/igBNYA

Note that in the last screenshot above, where I'm showing the "Settings via Awesome Miner and MSI Afterburner", all that is showing GPU 0:, GPU 1:, etc.  The actual name you can see in the window behind, do not carry through to the Afterburner window.  Could that be the issue?  If so, how do I get the GPU names I assigned to show up there?

Thanks!

Is there a way to change the default version of a particular miner that is being downloaded?

In particular, Z-enemy-1.22 is still defaulting to the CUDA 9.1 version instead of CUDA 10.0.

To solve your specific request, I've made this URL available:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/awesomeminer-download/z-enemy.1-22-cuda10.0_x64.zip

Making that URL available works well for me.  Thanks!

As for a better way, perhaps under Managed Software Properties, have download URL drop down where one could choose the version, based on what's available at s3.amazonaws.com/awesomeminer-download/?

That's probably a lot of work and maybe there isn't really that large a need for it?  I'm good with just having additional URL available so that I can manually enter under Customer Download URL.
Something like this will be made available in the future.

Since the last release of Awesome Miner, it will show the nVidia driver version information in red with a warning text about CUDA if you are running too older drivers. For this reason I'm also planning to include T-Rex for CUDA 10.0 in the next release to see what the reactions will be. If all goes well, Z-enemy and other mining software could then also be CUDA 10.0 in the future.

PLS fix

PLS help me

Use T-rex 0.7.2 It is 40% more hash (if it is in X22i)
The device parameter issue for zjazz will be corrected in the next release.

T-Rex 0.7.2 with x22i support will also be included by default in the next release.

Thanks for info.. Smiley

only https://www.phi-phi-pool.com/  has some new algos (X22i, Sonoa, BCD Smiley  )

so maybe it can be added to Awesome miner instead of Zergpool, right Patrike? Smiley

the rest looks worse with algos than Zpool..
Yes, this looks like a good candidate. I will add it in one of the next few releases.

I've also reached out to IceMining about BTC auto exchange so if they implement that it could also be supported.

Suggestion for feature improvement - for the dashboard graph add an option to graph profitability, vs just hash rates.
This would make it more useful when doing profit switching between algos - in that mode the hash rate graph is pretty useless since the different algos run at totally different hash rates.
