I compared the 4.1 version with 7.2. IDK why but stale- rate is higher with 7.2 ( same hashrate , same driver ,Sapphire RX480).
Did someone clear this dependency ...

RX470 and RX480 requires 4GB system memory, so you just can't mine with 2GB.
That is right. You cannot mine with 2GB memory with the Claymore miners. You can mine with other miners for other coins.
The key is to use -gser 1 option to serialize card initialization and don't forget to change virtual memory to use 16GB paging file. I don't know if the latter is really necessary, but -gser helps.
Soon switching to linux for new cards.
BTW, can anybody point me to the explanation of Polaris power stage structure? I need to understand well what all those VDDs mean. AFAIK, main VRM supplies voltage to a controller that generates more voltages for VRAM, GPU, VRAM to GPU bus, etc. Also there is some offset (from what to what?) used to downvolt. I use them blindly but please help me to find an info about this, I want to optimize my system but like to understand what I'm doing.
For voltage, I just change the state 7 (boost). PowerColor Red Devil doesn't like you changing voltage for some reason, but Sapphire Nitro, and an ASUS card are fine. Stock voltage varies from like 1070-1150. Out of 11 cards, 1020mv has always been stable, some cards will go down to 955mv (1260MHz core) and be perfectly stable. Check ASIC quality in GPU-Z, generally the higher this is, the less voltage is needed. You can keep lowering voltage until system lock, then add like 40mv if you want a quick way to find ballpark estimate lowest stable (some cards you need to stop miner between changes, press 0-9 on miner).

Recently started using Claymore, and so far its pretty awesome. Way more stable and profitable compared to what I was using before. Has anyone has any experience using the -logfile flag when running Claymore? I like the fact that it logs whats going on, but I am having trouble logging it to a file that I specify. If anyone has a working example that would be awesome.
When Claymore starts, it says -logfile is an unknown option. Is this flag deprecated from an older version? (I am running 7.1) Or am I just using it incorrectly.

Download v7.2, v7.1 has problems with "-logfile" option.
Downloaded and implemented 7.2, although its still giving me
UNKNOWN OPTION -logfile
UNKNOWN OPTION test.txt
Does the -logfile option need to be implemented in a certain place or a certain way? Im running Claymore like this...
./ethdcrminer64 -epool http://STRATUM/WORKER -ewal WALLET -epsw x -allpools 1 -di 0 -dpool XXXXXXX -dwal XXXXXX -dpsw x -dcoin sc -dbg 1 -gser 2 -logfile card0_noappend_log.txt -r 1 -mport 0
Thanks for the help!
Oh, linux, use v7.0 then. Or wait v7.3, will be available in a few days.

Hey,
Claymore, great miner
I have one small issue... sometimes (not sure why and when) 1 card show error with info about stopping watchdog gpu 5 (and trying to reboot.bash or restart miner) but this is weird because there is only 1 card (no matter solo or multigpu) , PSU checked, temp 85-88 degree , fan 90%... i wish to RMA warranty this gpu but ... its working sometimes 40hours non reboot... sometimes it reboots 5 times a day.... any idea how to fix it? or maybe how to stress test if its broken?
p.s. 4 gb ram is ok for 6 gpu? linux
regards,
Tom

I think 85-90 temp is not safe to run 24 hours a day,
Your gpu will die my friend, check thermal paste.
You should cool it better

Trying to run miner with RX480 on Athlon X2 Windsor (w/SSE3) @2.4GHz, 2GB DDR2, crashing on different versions few seconds after POOL VERSION displayed (waiting longer when trying first time after reboot). Used this platform to run on 280x, worked absolutely fine. Stable in LinX.
Is it possible to run the miner on this platform somehow? Miner does not produce any logs before to crash, maybe can I have a debug version with deeper logging?
More important data are:Is it possible to run the miner on this platform somehow? Miner does not produce any logs before to crash, maybe can I have a debug version with deeper logging?
your PSU and your MB model, and info if you use powered risers?
Just checked 280x - works fine. Looks like it stopps on VGA detection, as after POOL/SOLO VERSION the next lines i are Total cards: 1, No nvidia cards detected. This is what i do not see with RX 480
By installing 4GB RAM the problem is solved. By the way, even 3x 280x runs fine on 2GB. Why a single RX 480 does not?..

Hey Claymore, I've been having a lot of trouble with your miner lately. Specifically Watchdog restarts. The miner crashes and freezes up my whole PC when it tries to start mining again after a watchdog restart. I've tried multiple drivers and reinstalled Windows without luck. The new log (after miner restarts) ends like so:

Some chipsets tend to loose available ram if more pci-e resources are used. I remember this with intel 945G, more cards you add, less ram you get.
