Hey Patrike,

Could you include "fanmin" into Device Profile for Claymore's Miner, please?

Only works for AMD but it's work and i find it useful.

Im not sure if this could be a different miner all together, or just an algo tuning profile addon...

What about instead of switching algos for profit switching, you could run your hardware on a set algo, have a range variable box, if profits are greater than x amount change gpu settings to xyz, then another if less than y change gpu settings to xyz, then have a inbetween range settings variable...

What this would do is allow the miners to mine maybe at half tdp when the profits are in the gutters to conserve energy, then when they are in the average profit range you could run it at the most efficient settings you found for that algo, then when it spikes super high it could mine at a higher less efficient rate to get slightly more of the high profits..


Example:

Skunkhash: SIGT
If profits below $2.51/day change settings to 55tdp/70c/+200core/-501mem
If profits are greater than $2.50/day, but less than $5.00/day change settings to 70tdp/70c/+200core/-501mem
If profits above $4.99/day change settings to 85tdp/70c/+200core/-501mem

This would tie in well with difficulty mining, because profits increase when the difficulty drops and drops when nethash increases... this would allow energy savings during periods of low profits to reduce overhead and then sacrifice when the profits are higher, because in theory when difficulty is lower the miners running at 85tdp would mine more coins than other settings, resulting in more profits later and when the difficulty is high your machines could get a break on mining and just still gather, but at a lower energy cost...because energy usage and long term profits are the big things to larger mining groups... as they could care less what its worth 10 seconds ago

Example:

Skunkhash:SIGT (Personal Gaming PC 2xMSI Armor 1080ti's watercooled)
@55tdp 241.53 watts used hashrate 74.2MH/s 0.307MH/W
@70tdp 334.18 watts used hashrate 106.1MH/s 0.317MH/W
@85tdp 433.11 watts used hashrate 110.6MH/s 0.255MW/W



Question: Are you still planning to add the ability to change the gpu settings when a new algo starts? which could maybe tie into the above idea.. Algo Tuning Profiles, have profiles setup for each algo to link back to for settings

Be careful with the version 3, if your not up to date on the gpu drivers specifically Nvidia, your hashrate will actually get worse from my experience, the version 3 of this miner was designed off the latest Nvidia driver 384.94

couple things.

I still can't specify scrypt vs decred. I'm using all miningrentalrigs for host.

When you select a coin it wants to change everything. Also, under the coin selection mention why can't you select a pool payout value?

I'm getting a couple Baikal Giant+ units. Does this allow monitoring or profit switching between algos?

Thank you. I will def wait for next release.


That's it exactly. Thank you.

That would be fantastic. Thank you for this extremely useful program and your outstanding support!

I think this is similar to what another user just reported. I will provide a correction for this scenario for the profit switcher, but please verify in next release.

I can also add a Clone button for you in the Profit Profile section of the Options dialog. The idea is that you should be able to select for example the AMD profile, make a clone, and then make a few adjustments. Is that what you are looking for?

I just noticed that the MRR API has changed to require API key+secret, even for the basic operation to get general profit information. Strange move.

Profile switching display switching back to 'default' (AM version 3.2.2)

The 'Profile switching display' ('Main' -> 'Online Services') reverts back to 'default' after a few minutes. How can I make it stick to my preferred list?

A feature similar to this was possible with the older batches of Antminer S9, as they could be configured with custom frequency over SSH. Newer batches of S9 doesn't support that configuration.

From an Awesome Miner point of view, SSH commands can be sent to any ASIC/computer, so this is more about what the ASIC can support and figuring out exactly how it can be set over SSH (or any API).

There are no predefined triggers for defining profit rules like that right now. It should be possible with a C# script based trigger that requests pool revenue per day.

1) The CPU miner is currently not included in the profit switcher. Most people run the profit switcher with GPU mining software, so adding and testing for CPU mining wasn't a priority. I can add it to the list for the next version.

2+3) I found a problem related to the profit switcher here, so I will correct that and hopefully it was for the scenario you described here.

Currently no, but I've already made some preparations for this because of similar requests recently. What I can do is to add two new HTTP API methods in the next version. One to get the list of all Managed Templates (with Id and Name), and then an API operation to apply a specific template to a miner.

That's excactly what I do NOT see... I do have the MRR  checkbox ticked, still no info  

It's not listed as one of the customizable services in the Options dialog, Online Services section. You can still see the static profits in the Online services tab, if you at the bottom of the window make sure the checkbox (inside the drop down) is checked. In general, MRR has not had as much priority in Awesome Miner as the other services.

The current plan is to correct it in the next release.

Thanks for the feedback. I know that MRR support isn't as up-to-date as it should because of API changes over the years since it originally was implemented. It had a little lower priority from my side as the feature not been one of the most widely used.

For the coins in the status bar, is it that you want more than 5 of them to be displayed at the same time?

Well, I tried the current developer build (3.2.2) with a managed profit miner. Did my profiles with benchmarks, configured claymore dual -dcri values and made sure that every online service was correctly configured. AM started mining successfully but to the wrong address. Immediately stopped the miner and checked the logs. It seems that AM isn't configuring launch parameters automatically. Went to confirm this by deleting the default configs of all miner software (ccminer, etc) and tried to mine again. This time AM failed to launch the mining software. Logs confirms this and also the profit switching screen doesn't show any launch parameters.

Don't know how everyone is doing but managed profit mining isn't working for me.

Just a thought, but I installed AM in C:\AwesomeMiner\ instead of the default location. I'm using Windows 10 Pro with admin rights.

Request: it would be really useful if we could clone/export profit switching configs. It's a PIA to have to manually input benchmarks again when all I want to do is an exact copy of a profile with a different command line for 1 program (like a profile to mining only in GPU 1 in my PC while I'm gaming with GPU 0)

Hello,

It's possible to create a rule wich change frenquency on ASIC in relation to profit ?

For example, if nicehash or coin report:

• 0 to 20$/day --> 384MHz
• 20.01 to 30$/day -> 400MHz
• 30.01 to 35$/day -> 412MHz
• ...

Thanks

That fixed it, 3.2.2 is working now. Thanks.

CPU mining with profit switching in AM dev 3.2.2)

Q: How do I set up CPU mining with profit switching in AM?

Problem 1:
I can see 'CpuMiner-Opt 3.4.6 (CPU)' under 'managed software'.
But it is NOT available/selectable in the profit profiles -> no CPU mining!
Does any else notice the same?

Because of this I created a 'user defined mining software' entry for a CPU miner (Configured as [full compatibility with 'CpuMiner-Opt 3.4.6 (CPU)]).
I also selected all supported algos as for 'CpuMiner-Opt 3.4.6 (CPU)'
So far so good. BUT:

Problem 2:
The custom miner config is missing the same functionality (Default command line argument, User defined command line argument) as for built-in miners. This will lead to P3 further down 

Problem 3:
The custom miner does not get any parameters passed to it. Result:

What am I doing wrong?
