Yep, all cards are Sapphire - 470/4, 470/8, 480/4...
I am using MSI Afterburner 4.3.0 and the driver is 16.9.2 on win 8.1

Now I will switch to 16.12.1 and will see if this would help...

kirilvvbg and mo35,

I've been troubleshooting the same issue with a Sapphire Nitro+ RX 480 8gb card. I also use a GTX 970 and a R9 390, but only the 480 is affected. What brand are your cards? Wondering if this is a sapphire issue, or a general rx 400 series issue...

Try googling rx 480 fan issue. It seems like this is maybe a driver issue since non-miners have had this issue as well? Please be sure to report back if you find a solution! I'm banging my head against the wall over here. This doesn't happen with claymore's dual ethereum miner, but I'd love to get into mining XMR.

Are you using any tuning software to control your fans? I've tried several, all with the same issue. The ramp-up and loss of control of the 480 fans is random, though sometimes they stop completely instead of jumping to 100%, and then the pc eventually shuts itself down when temps are exceeded when I am out of the room.

Everyone else, is this an rx 480 issue, or a cryptonote algorithm miner issue with 400 series cards?

I'm on windows 10, crimson 16.12.2, claymore cryptonote 9.6. No issue at all with claymore's 7.4 dual eth miner.

i struggling with same issue , both on win7 & win10 , and same was happening using wolf0s XMR miner 0.4 & Claymores 9.6. & latest Sgminer-GM. No issues with equihash or dagger hashing. For me its seems related with some AMD driver crap, because i got rid of WHQL-Crimson-16.9.2 with DDU and now testing Non-WHQL-Crimson-16.10.3. So far not seen rig reboots , or fans spinning on 100% randomly ... been stable for 12h stright

Guys,

My problem is the following: on some of my rigs with RX470/480 cards' fans are going crazy (100%) on random pick.
It doesn't matter if I use stock setting or I did some overclocking. It even doesn't matter if the cards are with original bios or been flashed.
I've tried with 9.6 and 9.5 - same sh*t.
The only difference is that some rigs manage to restart, while others just shut down. And after they need "cooling time" before they could start again (manually of course).


While on ZEC - no such problem. I read in Wolfo's miner threat about pretty much the same problem.
Any suggestions what it might be?

Good to know.
Thanks

Why is the 1070 so bad in CryptoNote? Is there any change of improvement?

Just downloaded the miner was only for benchmark so its the stock server and wallet whats standard in the miner

That is really good.
What pool?

700 h/s on rx 470
729 h/s on rx 480

Total watt of whole system 340

Did you do a whole dissection of the memory straps? Segment by segment deciphering what is a code for what?
Can you please shed a light on custom timings?
Thank you

Hello all,

I'm having an issue with either this claymore miner or an RX 480 card. My rig is a mix-matched system of cards (ASUS GTX 970, ASUS R9 390, Sapphire RX 480) running on a 1000w EVGA psu. I'm using the 9.6 build on windows 10, amd drivers 16.12.2.

I'm having an issue that while mining XMR to a pool, my rig is shutting itself down at seemingly odd times. I've narrowed down a few possibilities:

1) Drivers are crashing for the RX 480? I've noticed that the fans will stop while mining and temps will climb at an alarming rate (haven't caught the pc shutting itself down because I see these temps and close the miner, but perhaps a temp limit is being tripped and a shutdown is initiated when I'm not there to circumvent?)

2) Something about this claymore miner isn't cooperating with my 480 card, or some temperature control feature of the miner isn't cooperating with this card and is overriding my manual fan control settings mid-mining operation?

This doesn't occur while mining ethereum with Claymore's dual miner 7.4, and mining ethereum brings a higher power draw and higher temps for my rig. Also, I don't think it is a psu or motherboard issue, because I've tried running only two cards (same result) and switching the 480 from a motherboard slot to a powered pci-e riser card (same result).

This 480 card was purchased as an open-box item from microcenter. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening to this card? Perhaps it's just a faulty card that is crashing under the particular load/hash algorithms of XMR?

Thanks to anyone that has any suggestions!

then whats the trick behind this lol? to achieve your hashrates.

Might be because you are using linux?

What portnumber I have to use for working vardiff? On any port I stuck with 10000 diff.

You also might want to mention the chance of him achieving those figures himself is close to zero

Thank you so much !! It was a really quick answer. Thank you

On a quick look to the pool. The pool has only 300kh out of total 45MH at network level which is less than 1% of total hashing power. So less frequent blocks. But still thank you
ANy other suggestions? Do large pools like dwarfpool allow custom difficulty?
Thank you once again

monerohash.com
Port: 7777
Starting Difficulty: 25000

I should add that:

Is there any pool that offers the choice of difficulty?
I would like to have a high difficulty pool as currently I am producing 40 shares per minute which requires 40 resets which eats into a lot of efficiency. Dwarfpool has current difficulty of 10,000. I would like to know if there is any pool offering high difficulty (vardiff may be or fixed at around > 20,000 ish)

thank you

4gb???

Yup. Just saying cause he said the best he's heard of was far lower.

which miner version are you using? AMD driver version? and your GPU,memory settings please?

How come no body leaks their mods and settings for cards to get the most hashrates lol. Is that such a big secret?

Unmodded 380X = roughly 550 for me. Not the best card for mining.
