Hi,
after switching to 11.7 I get following after mining approximately half an hour:

Claymore sees all 3 cards, thus the reported hash rate is correct.
I agree that you should supply the clocks and voltages for all all cards to be consistant, but it isn't required to function.
If you supply only one it is used on all cards in the system. In his case all cards would get  -cvddc 980 as the parameter.
I'll be interested to know the outcome.

Oh, I see it now.  I missed the reported hashrate line in the graph.  You think someone is in between him and the pool feeding him jobs but only giving him partial credit?  Perhaps flipping some of his shares?

Hi guys,
Sorry to bring this up, but I have been testing PhoenixMiner vs. Claymore's tonight and the (preliminary) results are not in favor of Claymore...

I have a small test rig (Win10, latest amd drivers, 3x RX 570 4Gb modded bios) just to test latest drivers, miners etc before loading on to my other rigs.

I have mined with the following batch files:

PhoenixMiner.exe -pool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -pool2 us1.ethermine.org:4444 -wal 0xAddress.RigName -proto 3 -tt 65 -tstop 80 -tstart 60 -fanmin 80 -fanmax 100

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal 0xAddress.RigName -epsw x -platform 1 -etha 0 -eres 1 -gser 2 -r 1 -mport 0 -cvddc 980 -tt 65 -fanmin 50 -fanmax 100 -ttli 75 -tstop 78 -ethi 20 -etht 20 -cclock 1150 -mclock 2090

Reason for the test was I was getting big difference between reported and current hashrate at ethermine. Stale shares are always around 2-5%.

What I see now after one hour mining with Phoenix, is this:


Whats happening?


It looks like you're seeing the effect of the command lines working somewhat differently between the two programs.  Claymore is obviously only running one card.  I see you are mostly only supplying parameters for one card on the Claymore command line.  For example -cvddc 980 instead of -cvddc 980,980,980 ... etc.  I don't think you have to do it that way but it always helps remind me that I'm working with multiple cards.

I have this problem on the newest nvidia driver and newest claymore, win10, 6x Asus gtx 1070:

NVML API: failed to get device handle 4, error 15.

One card is not mining.
Seems to be Card Nr.4 out of 6, gets detected in Device Manager, but not in Claymore.
Also gets shown in Afterburner, but everything is grey and not changeable for that card.

Does someone know a solution to this problem?

Thanks for your help!
Buy new card, that one is caput.

I've got this weird problem with stale shares rate for quite a while. 5-7% of stales to be precise (up to 10% on a 180Mhs 6 GPU rig at a time). At first I thought it might have something to do with GPU firmware, or process priorities, or claymore (been trying different versions, keep installing the latest with no improvement whatsoever). Tried to get rigs work through proxy, but then it became obvious that direct stratum is fastest way anyway. Network issues are out of question - I run gigabit switches to the router, then to the fiber optic router, and get 79ms to the ethermine pool. CPU load on rigs generally around 2-5%, and I use raisers v.006c (quite standard stuff). Here's my screen https://imgur.com/a/Xf8IDeM

Any suggestions?

If you are getting high stakes then it's most likely the location relative to the pool.

What is the average ping when a share is submitted? It needs to be less than 250ms or you will get very high stale rates since ETH has very close block times.

If your ping is low then the other issue can be your computer. If your CPU is overloaded then it might submit the shares too late and hence give you stales

Thanks for reply, I even gave claymore 'above normal' priority, and it didn't make any difference.

P.S.: will try other miners and pools, to get a better picture.
What if you try phoenix miner. The dev claims that the most recent version gives 0% stales and many users confirmed that. I have not tried myself (also suffering from 5-8% stales). I'm just waiting for more people to confirm before I switch from claymore.

I've tried several things to reduce stales. Direct IP at first was promising solution, but later in evening that rig's stales went up along with other rigs, I guess it was Internet usage peak time for my ISP, although it did show lower stales for other times. I've tried phoenix miner - same eggs, just from the other side. I've tried different DNS server, also no difference since its used only once in a while, then address is cached. Then I've tried different pool with much less latency. Unfortunately that pool doesn't show stales, and I can only count shares accepted. So far, it looks promising, and I think its the only way to reduce stales. Just use your closest large enough pool. I'm only concerned about the resulting latency for accepted shares being different from that server's ping. Ping is 22ms, shares get accepted at various numbers, from 15ms(!) to 500ms, but generally 31ms (not 22ms). Hope this info helps someone.

I am using Windows 10.  Previously using Claymore's latest miner 11.6 and the flag -eres 0 worked for fixing this.  I have tried updating to 11.7 with -eres 0 and it does not solve the issue any longer.

A more pertinent question would be: why the hell are you mining Ethereum with an Nvida 1060 3GB card in the first place? The only algo this card does worse at than Ethash is CryptoNight. Mine a coin using any of the following algos and convert to ETH if you absolutely must have ETH: Neoscrypt, Equihash, Phi, Lyra2v2, X16s or X16r.

I know of what I speak: I have a 6x 1060 3GB rig and I mine ZEN with it, getting about 300 Sols/s per card at 70% PL using dstm 0.6.

for 1060 3Gb, driver 382.53 works and will work for epoch 185 but not for 186.

if someone find drivers that can do 186 or more, please share (maybe olders drivers).

to test it is easy: -benchmark 186

Claymore crashed today for my all 3GB GTX1060s on Win 10. At #184 Epoch DAG fails. Has anyone got a problem with their 3GB cards?
Yeah, only if a search function existed.

Not exactly though.  If his problem is similar to mine, the search function helped defeat this issue previous and now it is back.

I have this issue as well again today

At least know the root cause, so you could get permanent solution

Your searched results and chosen thread might be different from him, better if you could post what are actions that were already done

these are the results of my search function regarding your problem

If you mean that I added -lidag 1 -eres 0 and downgraded the nvidia driver. I tried all of them. These methods are not working on Win 10 right now. After I install Ubuntu it has started to work again.
