armyman your PSU isn't enough. You shouldn't run a PSU at more than 80% of it's rating. rx480's can pull up to about 225 watts each, which is 1,350 watts. You have up to another 150-200 watts for the system also, excluding the vid cards. So you are over 1500 watts on a 1200 watt PSU. Of course it will not be stable. A 1600 watt PSU will run 6 480's and the system....just. It is still pushing the limit a bit much when you factor in the 80% rule....but it will run stable.

Hi, I am trying to setup a miner with 6 rx480 on windows10 using the latest version of Claymore's dual miner and crimson driver 16.9.1.

I have setup a very simple batch file to start mining on nanopool, but claymore crashes on startup.

The batch looks like

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal 0xd69af2a796a737a103f12d2f0bcc563a13900e6f -epsw x -eworker rig1 -etha 0


Any idea of what it could be?
Thank you

1 drivers issue delete your drievers mate...and install again...?

2 you need r to give to your cards more power ?

3 batch has nothing to do but you don't need it mate



- already done driver installation and reinstallation, tried 16.9.1, then tried 16.9.2, then back to 16.9.1 again (I am currently using this one)

- I have one 1200w psu which should be more than enough for 6 reference rx480

- I am currently trying this batch setup, but nothing seems to work:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal 0xfDfcC58320D2D4118660246aebDED5bAe942A7a0.armyman1 -epsw x
pause

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Please guys HELP cause this is getting ridiculous now, I have been trying to mine for 3 days with different miners and none seems to work.

I would like to mine with claymore software, but on win10 it always says "EthDCrMiner64.exe stopped working"


Has someone already experienced this?

Is something wrong with my OS?

Any real help is deeply appreciated, thanks.

If i run in claymore 7.1 my HD 7990 i have only 36 Mhs ... If i run on ethproxy+ethminer i have 50 mhs why this? Thanks
Because claymore reports the hash rate accurately.

I dont think this is the exactly problem ... There are other question i think ... Ethminer show costant 50 mhs and The HD 7990 working fine ... Whit ckaymore this card work many many to hard... And i cant find what is the problem ... And hashrate in solo or dual mode its equal for this GPU near 17+17 ... On ethminer show 50 or 25+25 mhs ...  Huh

Make sure you use 15.12 drivers.

Hello,

I have a problem when I overclock my six 480´s Sapphire 8Gb. I have 2 .bat´s, one with OC and another one with no OC. When I want to OC the cards I have to do this sequence:

- If I open the OC .bat, the cards run in the standard hashrate (25Mh/s) . I have to copy it to the "start folder" and reboot Windows 10.
- When Windows starts, it automatically runs the OC.bat but I get the standard hashrate again. I checked the file that was running was "OC.bat" in the top of the window.
- I have to copy the no OC.bat to the start folder and reboot Windows 10 and...voilá, I get the 27Mh/s.

If I have any problem and the Rig reboots it gets the standard hashrate again Sad

I have checked the config.txt and it´s empty and I´m using the v7.1. Any idea of what´s happening?

Thanks

EthDcrMiner64.exe -tt 65 -r 1 -mode 1 -cclock 1220,1220,1220,1220,1220,1220 -cvddc 920,920,920,920,920,920 -mclock 2250,2250,2250,2250,2250,2250 -mport 3856 -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0xxxxxxxxxx...


Add a pause at the beginning of your bat file, seems like wattman is loading after the miner and then overriding your overclock

Someting like
Code:
choice /m "Please wait" /d N /T 10 /C N
to wait 10 seconds (change the /T value to change the delay)

I am telling you that is EXACTLY the problem. It is a normal speed for hd 7990, it got slower over time mining ETH due to the dag file size increase. I had one and it had the exact same speed. You can use ethminer and see 50mh if it makes you feel better.

Void is correct. Your card is basically (2x)7970 and this card used to do 25, but now is doing 17 or less.
The question you should be asking is "Why ethminer shows incorrect 50 hashrate for my 7990" Wink

I am going to mirror the sentiment that intensity needs to be reduced during dag generation. Previous memory OCs were stable, now with the latest epoc they are no longer stable during generation. Please add the ability to reduce intensity on the miner during DAG generation.

I can generate the dag without a memory OC just fine then OC the memory after the miner is running and it works. If I try to generate the DAG while the memory OC is in place the GPUs crash.

for Claymore: Please add a mirror for your builds that is ftp-like and wget-able ? and with a predictable naming.
So I can do wget http://mirrorsite.com/claymore71.tar.gz
It's very annoying on headless system to download your miner. have to put in on usb, make a local webserver to share it, etc. Links text browser doesn't work with google and mega.

so better to run solo mining with Parity or with Geth ?
I heard Parity is better  but if it is true?

NANOPOOL SWITCHED TO PARITY--

The last few days have been rough on NanoPool, apparently the GETH wallet has security flaws.  There have been recent attacks on the Ethereum network.  I haven't solo-mined Ethereum for more than a year, but I did find 2 blocks on the GETH wallet before the network hash rate skyrocketed last year at this time.

There were some posts on this thread earlier where Claymore was making sure that his miner was solo-mining compatible with the Parity wallet.  If I recall correctly (IIRC), the solo-miner reported success.

I would not try to solo-mine Ethereum with only one or two rigs.       --scryptr

Hi guys,
I just tried to switch from Ubuntu 16.04 to windows 7 x64 to mine. Ubuntu 16.04 and the amd GPU pro driver are just awful.

I installed a basic windows 7 just with the latest amd crimson drivers, the OS has not been updated yet. When I launch claymore, the miner enumerates the cards and then crashes (stopped working). I tried 7.1 and 6.4, same result. Also same result with and without environment variables. Virtual memory is set to 16gb.

Other than windows not being updated, I don't get what's causing this, my main desktop which is also windows 7 x64 has no issues running claymore.

Any advice or anyone ran into the same issue?

Thanks

HOW YOU HAVE 11 GPU?!?!?!?



LOL, one of the coolest things I have ever seen!  Grin Cool

@Claymore: a max of 16 could be insufficient  Cheesy

Which exact model is that MB , and does it have additional power on PCI-E line ( similar to BTC -MBs )

That is not a motherboard, it is a PCIe expansion backplane that runs a little over $2K.. It does have discreet power but not enough to power all of the cards without powered risers.

Hello i have installed one HD 7990 and when i start miner all OK but afther 2 min of mining i lose signal video and i need to restart PC ... Anyone can help me? Please

Anyone mining on hd7990 and have this problem?

okay sounds like you are overheating and it shuts down.

first and most important what are your fans set at?

next how do you do your settings?

 trixx
msiafterburner
asus
amd settings Forgot the name they use.

last  do you monitor temps?  you can use gpu-z to see temps

I finally have cracked the 600mh level!

Rig 1 biostar z170 -------- 4 rx 480's
Rig 2 biostar z170 -------- 4 rx 480's
Rig 3 biostar z170 -------- 4 rx 470's
Rig 4 asus    z170 -------- 3 rx 470's
Rig 5 asrock z170 -------- 3 rx 470's
rig  6 gigabyte b75m ----  2 rx 470's
rig 7  gigabyte b75m ---- 2 rx  470's
rig 8  asrock   h77-------- 2 rx 470's
rig 9 asrock h81 ---------- 3rx 470's
