With difficulty of Ethereum jumping by 35% in 3/4 weeks

Do you reckon ASIC mining hardware is shipping amongst insiders?

From Dash coin, engineers where making small batches of ASIC X11 miners, long before commercial products became available to the community in April this year!

I heard the cost of ASIC miner will be high due to the big DAG file size. So Ethereum will be ASIC resistant.

Every 4 weeks, 12THS is added too difficulty, which is starting to look like small scale ASIC Hardware production is going on unofficially (in secret).

This is what always happens with ASIC Hardware. Some engineers get together with some miners and produce private ASIC hardware.

They then pre-mine a tonne of coins, dump the coins mined with this private ASIC hardware to finance the manufacture of a commercial ASIC hardware.

I'm just posting, because some people may have been thinking of more GPU's and they would never get a ROI.

I finally moved off dwarf to ether mine the us1 server.  I haven't had a drop or load of rejects since.  Dwarf aggravated me.  Many times I seen that warning that's stats are delayed then same time I would lose over 25% shares that round.  Then they come with 0 fee and now I was seeing it daily a delay in stats.  So either way they getting the fee.🙄

Best regards

Yes that was very annoying.  Just delay in stats and then nothing but lost shares with no explanation at all.  Left a bad taste in my mouth.  First time I was ok it happens but then it just started happening way too often for my liking.

PM me the log file, I will check it.

Another series of rejects @ DwarfPool. I understand it is not a miner fault, but wonder why it did not detect issues like 2000/800 or 6000/600 shares/rejects as a reason to restart.

I sent you PM with logs from 4.6b3, please check what happened.

hello claymore,

I have a strange memory usage on certain card and my hash drop for the same GPU. I do not understand why.

Normally 1x R9 270 15MH at 1050/1500 and actualy  the memory usage is 1775 mb.

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/162288r9270.jpg

For another card my hash drop at 13.9 (  but same clock  ) my memory usage not same 1558mb , I think my problem is here.

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/667611270drop.jpg

Can you help my?

best regards

Yes I am a pirate, 300 years too late!
Well we'll see how Claymore's miner works with the RX 480s tonight!!  4 on the way here!!

keep us posted - mine only coming tomorrow morning.

which brand did you get?

XFX Radeon Rx 480 8GB DDR5 3Xdp Hdm Graphics Cards RX480M8BFA6

Of course they price was higher than MSRP ($259), but free same day shipping

I have seen the reviews in the gaming performance. It is slower than the R9 390. In the mining, it is also slower.

what GPU are you using?
you need at least 4GB cards mate
3Gb cards are fine. Maybe 2 Gb too but not sure with the latest dag

The size of the latest DAG is about 1.6 GB, so 2 GB card is fine at the moment.

Hi to community.
One more man with a problem...
16 Gb virtual memory is set.

Please, advice, what's wrong? Sad

So, no ideas?.. Sad

No 2gb is sufficient:)

Could anyone let me know, what is command to reboot computer not to restart miner if video driver failed and i get very low hashrate after?

I have this line in *.bat

EthDcrMiner64.exe -wd 1 -r 1 -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 etc... but it doesn't help, after driver failed, rig keep going calculation low speed (0,5-8mhs on each R9 280x) before it's rebooted myself.

command -r >20 restarts miner, but it still low hashrate and i need reboot.

Assistance please.

The simplest way I've found is to go into device manager, into your GPU, or I guess multiple GPU's (which may get more tedious) and disable, then re-enable them, and everything works. At least for me.

Problem is, my software will run forever once it's gotten started, but often if I have to close it then re-open it, I get the issue of the miner not starting and the driver hanging. So this is what works for me, but I have multiple of the same card and it's an easy-ish process... YMMV...



Doesn't work for me(( I can't controll rigs working 24/7, and make *.bat to reboot system every couple hours seems not good idea. Maybe there is another way to do it?

if you can script something like.... if miner restart counter more than 2 then run reboot.bat

Have you set this ?
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

How much physical ram ?
Which gpus ? (how much vram on them ?)
Other opened programs ?
