@Claymore, did you look at the Parity stratum mode? I remember it was expected to be implemented in future updates. Now more ETHash coins are coming which can be mined solo until difficulty increases. Would be good to have stratum mode for Parity.

Not yet, but it's in my todo list.

@Claymore
with current version 10.3 (bug occured in version 10.2 also), with Vega64 and Vega56 cards, i get a 100% reject rate for siacoins from both nicehash and mph. cards will benchmark fine though.
the 4XX and 5XX cards are fine and don't exhibit this problem and will have shares accepted fine.
i'm using win10 64bit.

I need to know your command line so I can do the same test.

I really hope there is a way to bypass ADL API check by watchdog in future.

I'm using 5x 1060s 6Gb, Claymore 10.2 and get the "temperature control thread hangs need to restart miner" stuff. Driver version 360.95. Anyone else has this issue and know why? Temps on cards are between 53-58 ^oC.

Check first post of on this page.. you can try -tt 0 as he said to test it. For me, I went back to 10.0.

Can you help me for this error : Temperature control thread hangs, need to restart miner!

My card has temps 62, the miner restart every 2 hours or less, every 20mn this morning

I have this error on claymore 10.2 and 10.3, i don't use previous version.
I haven't this problem with claymore for cryptonight or equihash

I also experienced same issue,
Any idea how to disable the temperature control thread? Thanks

You cannot. It is a driver issue.

I agree, try different drivers if you are sure that hardware is ok. I see this issue on latest Adrenalin drivers on some cards, for example, I cannot make it work stable on a system with stock 1x RX480 + 1x Duo Pro on 17.12.2 drivers, looks like latest drivers are unstable in some configurations.
Or you can specify "-tt 0" to disable temperature/fan control, but probably it will hang in OpenCL call in a few minutes anyway.

I don't think it driver issue, it might compatibility issue with new version of claymore and blockchain driver.

I use blockchain driver and having this peoblem with 10.2 and 10.3 after I went back to 10.0 never have this temperature thread hang again. (all same setting only change 10.3 to 10.0, everything stable for 24 hours, 10.3 give me hangs after 30-60 mins)

Check History.txt:

v10.2
...
- in rare cases ADL API calls can hang, now watchdog checks it as well.
...

So now if ADL hangs, miner will be restarted. In v10.1 and earlier miner will work without temperature control (all related options will stop work too), watchdog will hang too (because it was in same thread). So you can select what behaviour is the best for you: restart miner when ADL hangs (use v10.3) or stop temperature control and related options (use v10.1), but the reason is not in miner anyway.

Thank you for clarify, may I ask if I want 10.3 to operate as 10.0 which command I have to add?

Anyone know what combination of dual mining is most profitable i.e. ETH+DCR, ETH+SIA?

I've noticed my hash rates recently dropped (AMD rx 580s usually at 27-28MH/s each, now down to 19MH/s each) for unknown reasons, but when I run benchmark mode the rates are back to what I was used to seeing. Is there something benchmark mode is doing that doesn't limit the cards, or is this simply just real world vs benchmark?

Do you updated you gpu drivers? Because in the lastest version you need to enable the compute config in Global Settings > GPU Workload of AMD Radeon Settings.

If you are using Blockchain drivers Aug 23, this step it's not necessary, so you have another issue.

I'm dumb forgot to set a few things in the command line Embarrassed

@claymore

Need you help please.

I installed 3pcs of RX560 with fresh install of ubunta. I follow instruction of http://www.cryptobadger.com/2017/04/build-ethereum-mining-rig-linux/.

Everything is fine except only 2 card is running. The script can detect GPU0, GPU1 and GPU2 (in purple word). However, only GPU0 and GPU1 is working.

Script as below and the configue.txt is default empty setting.

#!/bin/sh
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
./ethdcrminer64 -epool eth-us-east1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal 0xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxd/Miner01 -epsw x -mode 1 -allpools 1 -tt 68

could you please advise ?

I believe it's not a miner issue, I had kinda same issue with rx570 on Ubuntu, like fan on 1 card wasn't working, then hash rate on 1 card was significantly low compare to others. So I played(plug to diff pcie ports and used diff rizers) with port on motherboard and rizers, and now it's fine and stable.

Further with my issue, i plug again the 3pcs RX560 which is running fine now. However when i plug 6pcs of RX550. It can only run GPU0 and GPU1. I try to remove from 6pcs to 5pcs ..... until 2pcs. It is also running GPU0 and GPU1. Same setting of 3pcs of RX560.

Anyone can help ? I do think that it is related to the claymore script ....etc since my start.sh script is the same. It works on 3pcs of RX560 but not work on 3pcs to 6pcs of RX550.

Just to know... do you enabled the 4G decoding config in your BIOS? I'm using windows and I had to enable this config to use more than 4 gpus, I don't have sure, but I think that you need to enable this config in linux too.

Hi All,

I am struggling to find a solution to my problem after hours of searching through reddit.

I am using claymore V10.3 (windows 10) and mining Ether using 12 RX570's in solo mode with the default recommended startup settings. My problem is that my hashrate is fluctuating wildly. When mining I get about 30s of solid running at 100% GPU load after which my hashrate drops to almost zero along with the GPU load for about 5s after which everything goes back to full speed. This loop then continues indefinitely and I can't figure out why.

The research I have done suggests it is due to throttling because of temps, but my temps are low ( 65 degrees) so I am not sure what could be causing the issue. The problem is even noticeable by the GPU fans, for 20s or so they spin up and sit at about 50% then the whole rig goes quiet for a few seconds as the hashrate drops and then spins back up again.

When I mine other coins like monero using xmr-stak I don't experience this problem at all so I don't think it is an issue with my rig.

Any Suggestions?

There is no way to make it work exactly as v10.0. Closest option is "-tt 0".
