Here is my current setup...

GPU 0  Sapphire Vapor-X R9     280x
GPU 1  Sapphire Nitro+ 8GB      RX 480
GPU 2  XFX DD Black Edit 4GB   380x

Current mining batch
Code:
@echo off
set GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
set GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
set GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

@echo on
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool coinotron.com:3344 -ewal molitar.miner1 -esm 2 -epsw -dpool "http://sia-eu1.nanopool.org:9980/miner/header?address=
&worker=miner1&email=" -dcoin sia -dcri 30 -allpools 1 -ethi 16,2,16

Now since I have a RX 480 now I have to use the Crimson driver is there any tweaks you an suggest?

So far I have not figured how to tweak my RX 480 or reduce voltage on my R9 380x but I did custom edit my BIOS on my R9 280x?

Does the above suggestion of having two different miners running on same system make sense or will the gain be too little?  Also is there any other suggested tweak settings.

I have a GIGABYTE GA-Z170X-UD5 board, trying to boot 5 470/480s.  I have them all on powered 1x-16x risers. It won't POST with 5 cards, but it will boot with 4 cards, mining now, 100% stable. Tried changing slots.  Tried changing PCIE gen to 1, 2, and 3 in bios.  Default display set to onboard.  Is there a different setting I need to change?  Looked through the bios, didn't see anything else. Is this a board that needs 16x risers if using more than 4 cards?  If so, can someone link one that won't fry a card?

If you use more than 4 cards you need a MB with an extra molex 4 pin connector like this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ASRock-H97-Anniversary-motherboard-ATX-LGA1150-Socket-H97ANNIVERSARY-/112016860002?hash=item1a14b9a362:g:EgEAAOSwv9hW2Jck
So you can't boot with 5 cards because the MB doesn't have enough power for all your PCI-E cards.

Isn't that the point of the powered risers?  The cards get all their power from molex directly connected to the riser circuit board.  The only thing going to the motherboard is a USB cable from riser to 1x board for data.  Motherboard power can really only power 2 or 3 cards anyway because the ATX plug only has 150W available.  I have seen posts of people saying connecting molex to mobo is optional on that board anyway as long as you use powered risers.

I think that we are going to see XMR+SIA with the next (7.0) version..
is that correct Claymore?

Hey guys,

Is there any way to make EthMan accessible via an external network? I opened the port 8000 and 3333 just to give it a try and I was unsuccessful. I tried to search in this forum, but I couldn't find a clear answer about it.

It felt like it did make sense to open the port 8000 then type the external public ip:8000 on the browser. Didnt work Sad

Thanks!!
Confirm that port 8000 is open....

Hey,

Thank you for replying!!

I do access all my rigs through remote desktop via virtual servers setup, opening ports isn't really much of a big deal, but I did double check on http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and the ports are open.

Any ideas?

Make sure port 8000 is going to that specific computer, and check if anything else is listening on that port.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/48198/how-can-you-find-out-which-process-is-listening-on-a-port-on-windows

I checked and there was nothing else listening on that port on the current machine runnning EthMan. Just to be 100% sure I just changed the port to 64000.
I can confirm the new port is open externally, confirm it's working on the lan and confirm it's not working with the external IP:64000

Maybe I am missing something? -_-

Thanks man

It should work if port is being passed from router directly to your computers IP address.  Only other thing I would check is local firewall.  For checking active local ports, this is really good, just found it.  TCPView https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897437.aspx

Hello Claymore,

can you add Bikercoin to your GPU and CPU Mining software please?
Bikercoin is a Cryptonote based coin, so you should add the support to your Cryptonote mining software. But it would be very nice if you can add Bikercoin support to ETH/DCR/SIA Miner too.

I'm the owner of an Bikercoin pool.
You can reach my Pool at: http://bikercoin.acidminer.org

You can contact me here by answer my pm. Roll Eyes
kind regards

GRS is dying. Do not add it to Claymore.

Based on the profitability chart I see , Groelst with 23MH/s and Eth at 18MH/s Groelst Coin is close to eth gains

but volume market cap is barely 2BTC

GRS is getting delisted from Polo on September 5th.

If it was a good coin it wouldn't be getting delisted.

ALSO, total MH of network is really really low. This makes it susceptible to 51% attacks.  We've been seeing 51% attacks on coins lately. You want to avoid coins with low hashrate like this one.

that would be great....

but some good soul PM me to see this "simplemining.net" -- its full Linux on a stick running Claymore v6.3 and much more... interesting project. Finally ... I am free from Microsoft... me thinks :-)

You pay him a mining fee in addition to claymore mining fee.

NOT worth it.

yup, i agree.

i think we should have a standard ubuntu image with all claymore stuff already prepackage, incl. AMD drivers etc, all we need to do is update the config file. simple without the bells and whistles.... any volunteers?

Actually, the difficulty to build such distros depends on the service you want to have. Say, some distros autodetect and configure network cards for you. All is fine when it works. But if something goes wrong you have to find what's wrong exactly. Instead I prefer to configure things by hand using vi. If things go wrong I know exactly where to find it. But then I am getting optimized light configuration to work with. Configure once, use forever.

IIRC, it takes around 3% of your hashrate as a payment for the distribution. I may be wrong, or thing may be changed since I looked at that. Check for yourself.
Still, would be good to have a way to build such USB-based system from scratch. I am now doing own version to run fully from RAM with USB stick set to r/o after boot. But I am afraid I can't take money for free software, and am too lazy to write detailed manuals for free (this needs much more time than I can afford). I like some distributions, but I definitely want to build it myself, not use prepackaged one.

Hi guys - anyone has guide to create linux booting from USB thumbdrive, running claymore dual miner? thanks

There are two ways :
  • LIVE CD booting from USB - use any Linux Live CD and e.g. YUMI for Windows
  • Native Linux installed on USB - use any Linux and install to USB

+ install Claymore

I can create some, if interested.

I have 4 r9 280x speed falling anyone know why


Tahiti cards don't do well with the ETH.  I'm not sure why. I think it has to do with the increasing DAG file sizes but perhaps someone else smarter than me can say why.

You can always mine another dagger hashimoto coin instead and get better hashrates. (EXP for example.)

Tahiti card is the earlier generation of GCN, the memory usage is not efficient. The 380 or 390 is much better.
