you are welcome, fury's are really awesome cards.  if you guys arent watching live, there is the vega thing from amd right now...although they havent talked about vega yet Sad

I tried reinstalling the driver and AB but, as I expected, it did not solve the problem. The dag size that reached 2gb is a problem that can not be fixed (at the moment).

i will use that card to mine exp + dcr or zec  Wink (more profitable then mine eth at 5 mh/s)



It is better to mine ZEC.

zec profitability sometimes appears to be greater (for example today has risen because of the increase in the dollar price) but it always lasts very little.
dual mining instead has a higher yield and is very stable in time. look here  Wink :



That is right. On average, it is lower than Eth in the last few weeks.

sapphire nitro fury, clock @ 1100, -100mv.  You should mod it to be -150mv or more (test it out), plus bring the memory clock to 400 or even 300.  I just have one, its on my gaming computer and so it mines during the night.  I'm actually mining zec with it.  dual mining uses too much electricity, its too hot in my room Sad  drivers are 16.6 or 16.11.x or something like that cant remember.  I have a 470 that mines on that computer too.  maybe try with 16.3.2 drivers, i think thats the best.

Thanks! I just got the two today and had totally forgot about Afterburner. I believe I might not have enough power to actually power the two unless I undervolt (which I am going to). Because without undervolting, their clock rate fluctuates even below stock. However, when I undervolt -96 but increase power limit, I can only go up to 1070MHz before it gets unstable. Very unfortunate. Oh well, at least I know what the next purchase will be.

When I undervolt, however, I do get 30.5 MH/s ETH and 610 MH/s PASC (dcri 40) per card though, so thanks!

Edit:

What kind of benchmark program is that?

i've got 2 RX480 8GB with the next pars for dual mining with Claymore.s.Dual.Ethereum.Decred_Siacoin_Lbry_Pascal.AMD.NVIDIA.GPU.Miner.v8.0:

ETH:   24 + 24   Mh/s
PASC: 356 +356 Mh/s

is that ok or i should mine only ETH?

Try for yourself, calculate in excel, like I do -.-
A guy wrote above that -dcri 5 for mining the second coin pays for electricity, but I found for myself that I lose 1Mh/s from ETH with DCR -dcri 5 (~144Mh/s) so I decided to keep mining only ETH.
I find 1% fee better than 2%, plus ETH is on some fantastic rise.

Try to '+/-' with your keyboard keys to see your hashrates and again - 'excel' it! >_<

I went the opposite direction. Try setting the -dcri intensity really high, not really low, with your rx 480. You might be surprised.  I'm able to mine 2.5x as much dcred with only a minor loss to ETH speeds. More than makes up for the extra energy use/fee.

Hello

Try this bios: vdrop + (page 1)

https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/9650/sapphire-rx-480-nitro-oc-8gb-11260-01-20g-modded-bios-29-mh-downvolt

And -100mv in msi after burner

I flashing my cards with this bios and my problem has disappeared.

Try and tell me if it works better.

Hello

I have since noticed a problem of hashrate,

My 2 cards on the same bios, the setting is identical, normally I must have 29mh.

But I have a gpu that has only 27mh, and this one is unstable it sometimes falls to 24.

Has anyone had this problem?

thank you



I have the same problem.
Sapphire RX 480 Nitro+ 8GB - starts mining at 29.5 Eth + 750 Decred. After a while it drops to about 26,3 ETH + 640 Decred and never goes back to the speed it started with.
Can't figure out what the problem is, i've tried DDU and reinstalling drivers, more power, different cmd line, nothing works heh.

well a fury gets 30.5 and 600mhs, which is good.  470 gets 27mhs and 270mhs.  unfortunately, power consumption is through the roofffffffffffffffffffff
inb4 rig problems

I wrote a small piece on it, see my website if you want.
How are you getting 30.5 MH/s ETH + 600 H/s PASC? I just got two Fury's and I'm not getting close to that with 15.12 drivers.

I have been mining ETH + DCR with v7.4 successfully using Suprnova pool for DCR.  I wanted to change over to try Pascal with v8.0 so I simply copied over the start.bat file, left everything the same, except changed to the secondary pool address to Suprnova's Pascal address from their DCR address.  From my understanding of how Suprnova works, I assumed this was all that needed to be changed, since the suprnova username.workername part of the bat file should be identical.

However, after making this change and launching the miner, everything starts fine for ETH, but the miner is still attempting to mine DCR, which of course it cannot due to the pascal.suprnova pool address, resulting in invalid DCR shares... and, it's not even attempting to mine Pascal for some reason.

Does someone know if something else needs to be changed in the start.bat file to trigger the Pascal mining?  I can't seem to figure it out.

Are you running Nvidia cards? 

Claymore's miner doesn't yet support Nvidia cards for Pascal.

is there a way to save the AB profiles?

Try C:/Program Files (x86)/MSI Afterbutner/Profiles/MSIafterburner.cfg

Copy, delete, open AB - check it's gone. Close, restore the copied file to the folder and run AB, check if it's there again.

Check readme for PASC mining example.

-dcoin pasc

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool europe1.ethereum.miningpoolhub.com:20535 -ewal Delle54.R9280X_0 -esm 2 -epsw x -allpools 1 -ethi 8 -dpool pasc.suprnova.cc:5279 -dwal Delle54.R9_280X -dpsw x -dcoin pasc -dcri 20 -allpools 1


Ahhhh... thank you very much for that!  I did look at the readme for 8.0 but i guess i missed the pasc example. Thanks again for this!

My RX 480 8GB cards make 27.4 Mh/s @2200 memclk.
On dual-mining with PASC speed drops to about 22 Mh/s even at -dcri -10.

I did not see higher mining speed at all on any of my rigs i started to use version 8 Sad

Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner.
=========================

Latest version v8.0:

FEATURES:

- Supports new "dual mining" mode: mining both Ethereum and Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal at the same time, with no impact on Ethereum mining speed. Ethereum-only mining mode is supported as well.
- Effective Ethereum mining speed is higher by 3-5% because of a completely different miner code - much less invalid and outdated shares, higher GPU load, optimized OpenCL code.


I'm pretty sure that that 3-5% speed improvement comment is a hold-over from a previous version update... like 7.2 or something.  Claymore typically notes any speed improvement for the current update at the very top of post #1... in this case, under V8.0, he mentions no such speed improvement.  That and the fact that ETH mining speed has pretty much been maxed out for quite some time and I'm pretty sure there was no expected speed bump in this version.
