This miner app is pissing me right off, I cannot get any version past 3.4 to run stable without the OS hanging. I have tried a load of different settings, drivers, underclock's etc and all the same, app crashes and takes out the OS. My batch file looks like this:

:BEGIN
start "CryptoNote" /low /wait NsGpuCNMiner.exe -o stratum+tcp://pool.minexmr.com:7777 -p x -u [XMR Address] -a 2 -wd 1 -ee 1
timeout /t 30
GOTO BEGIN
exit

I have tried both 13.12 and 14.6 drivers, Windows 7 and 8.1, I currently have my tri-x cards underclocked to 947/1250 but it also happens with them at stock clocks, I have 6 cards in each rig and nothing I do seems to fix the hangs in OpenCL call, app crash and then OS hang.

Beyond frustrated.

Anyone running similar set-ups, what OS, drivers, miner version etc?

Please create a Linux version of this app, with the 5% fee you have made from everyone surely should fund a Linux version, or maybe even just open source it and let the community make this application better.

It's not worth going beyond 3.0 for the slim speed bump compared to the hellishly unstable environment it creates. I don't, and am content.

The speed increase and the power reduction are nice though and I would like to be able to take advantage, but this app just crashes out. What are we paying 5% for if not for further production of the app?

The big problem here is the possibility to manipulate the price with these 5%. And the lack of linux support...

I think no calculator's really accurate, from my experience.
Boolberry has an open source gpu miner now, I'm guessing we'll see one for xmr soon.

i hope so. the fee is starting to hurt my pocket now as well. and the nofee option is a 10% loss per rig vs 5% fee kind of sucks. before i didnt care as it was profitable to mine but now its stings badly.

now it's a very hard time for miners.i think dev should decrease 5% fee.now 80% of mined coins should pay for electricity cost.miners only earn 20% ,however dev earns 5% ，that means 25% of miner's earning.

I agree. 2% is more reasonable.

I also agree, 2% is fair.

i agree 2% that's so good, because this time is hard for mining now, miner have to pay for 1-2% of pool and 5% dev.

yea and 80% electricity, what's actually left for the miners after 87% elec, pool fee, dev fee is just 13% what a pity

Can anyone that has also mined X11 compare the profitability of this miner after all the fees vs and X11? Is it about a wash or is it a better user of your miner to mine this in terms of daily BTC.

At present, there is no competition, so Claymore can name its price.

We need another miner with higher or same efficiency.

XCN is a completely different algorithm. He has to code a miner from scratch.

Monero -> Cryptonote algorithm
XCN -> m7 algorithm

I agree. 2% is more reasonable.

With 5% fee, it gives Claymore the incentive to support the miner and research into further optimisation (and support for more coins such as xcn) which gives us more returns. All these work means tremendous time and effort. This 5% dev fee is the best arrangement that I have seen so far. As the user base grows, this 5% fee will be a good sum to motivate Claymore to produce even better miner. Keep the 5%. I am looking forward to more hashes and more coins to mine with my GPUs.

Claymore's AMD GPU miner is the only one there. It is already much faster than the CPU and nVidia miners. If AMD GPU miner is the dominant miner, then there is little difference to us if our new version is even faster than previous version as percentage increase is small.

If the hash rate increase is based on the more power consumption, then it is even worse.

Well that pretty much sums it up, noone will support the coin devs even if it means the coin would die without them. Unbelievable.

I have pm'd Claymore and asked him to give a part of his fee to the Monero Core Group.

Hope he doesn't have his head as deep in the sand as you guys.

Guys, u should be doing this anyway: underclock, undervolt, find your best ratio for

coin yield
------------
watts usage

for ur mining rigs. in simple terms, make ur miner profitable. Else if its not profitable, for ex. u've already optimized and still no profits? then stop mining

moreover, at any time if it makes more sense to buy the coin than mine it, then buy it by all means. u support the coin price to go up therefore letting u sell at higher price and then u gain profit thru trading. coz mining at a loss, means u basically rely on trading gains anyway. savvy?

i think this is the best way to make profits. forget about asking claymore to decrease commission, it wont help in the long run. its just like asking pool to cut their pool fee, or exchange to cut their trading commissions -- short term solutions that wont mean squat in the long term. i hope this is clear enough, no need to elab further

cheers!

yeah 2% would be fair.. i was already thinking of shutting down my 3khash miner

Hello Claymore.I have found xcn pool. 6.1v dont't support xcn,Please add xcn to Gpu miner.

Waiting for new version. Thank you!

I heard it's not so easy to make efficient M7 on GPU.
