Its normal to sometimes be mining ethereum classic right?

If you are on the auto switching pool yes it is normal. They mine whichever coin is most profitable at the time for the algo you are mining. I prefer to stick with one coin and use the port for a single coin, whether it be ETH or ETC.

Also I know this is a stupid question but should i use different workers for epool and d pool? or use same worker?

Worker names, on MPH, can help you see how each rig (or group of cards) is individually performing.
I use different workers just to differentiate between rigs, and it makes no difference to your hashrate what worker name you use.
To keep things simple just use the same worker name throughout if you have only one rig and are mining one coin (or even dual mining as you can view each coin pool separately) - hope this makes some sense.

yup, thank you appeciate it.

might switch to nano pool because of their actually chart analytics for mining results. I like seeing data visually.

But other than that this miner has been great so far, Im sure im not fully optimized, and I know mining with a single year old GPU isnt going to net me much,. but oh well right.

Nanopool is a good pool but they require a minimum of 0.05 ETH for withdrawal. With a single GPU would take a while. On the other hand, Mining Pool Hub only requires a 0.01 ETH minimum withdrawal. You might want to consider that with a single GPU.

Ah fair enough my friend. so much help from you, dont get that often from strangers. I guess im good to go now, I wonder if this will be worth it just mining on 1 card. oh well its fun I guess, maybe ill look into the BIOS thing too if you think it helps.

oh wow I didnt know that ^.. so then im not sure what to set it since there is no eth/sc only option.

these are the options

(not sure why i blanked out the worker info i guess it doesnt really matter)

Ethash>Ethereum
That is enough. You already defined SC option independently, in config.txt.

You can use different workers in epool and dpool. No reason, but possible though.

ah, there is a dropdown in the workers page there, its confusing, i just set it to AMD ethhash all ethash algos. seems to be working fine since im duel mining eth and SC.

If you set All Ethash algos, your miner will switch between different coins. Each switch=new DAG generation, it lasts ~10-30 sec, during the switch your miner does not earn money.
You can let the miner run on auto switch for 6 or 24 hours and count how many times it switched. So you'll get a picture how much % of time your miner is idling.
Regarding the hashrate - MPH shows the calculated hashrate, based on shares submitted/time spent. During larger time frames - 1h, 4h, 24h, it will be in line with the console reading.
If you decide to OC and mod your BIOS, PM me, I can help you.

wow thanks man i will do that now, what about the start.bat and ethpool dpool txts?

And does it matter what dropdown i select on the miningpoolhub site worker page? thanks again for quick reply. Im never sure what to put in config and what to put in starbat so i just put same things in both (minus gpu settings which is only in start.bat)

also is "setx __" the correct format for start.bat like i have it above?

And I just got temperature control thread hangs for these settings

1. What is "dropdown"? I don't use MPH. If you can elaborate, I'd try to figure out.
2. It's not necessary to double the same info in config.txt and start.bat.
This is enough:
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
3. Explain "control thread hangs". Did the miner crash? Try to change the -fanmin, -tt and -ttli parameters. The colder your GPU is, the more will it work.
I forgot to say you can use -mvddc 925 and -cvddc 925 (even 900 for both, on stock), if you use Claymore 10.x and newer drivers. Those voltage settings are quite efficient and safe.

ah, there is a dropdown in the workers page there, its confusing, i just set it to AMD ethhash all ethash algos. seems to be working fine since im duel mining eth and SC.

Also I think ill just leave everything as is now, Im getting 10mh on eth now thanks to you, also that temperature thing only happened once so i think im good now.

thanks again my friend.

EDIT: actually wait, its so weird, my dashboard on the mining site says im getting 23mh but miner console says 10? very strange

Should AMD overclocking work on linux? For me it does nothing and i don't know if I did something wrong or if it just don't work on linux.

hey just started using this miner with an old rx 460 saphire 4gb (pls dont bully my graphics card)
..
I've tried two different configs, one was just eth and sia, other was the eth+all and allcoins one, based on most profitable at miningpoolhub.

RX460 is not that old, don't complain.
RX460 should push ~10 MH/s in stock and ~13-14 MH/s in OC with modded memory timings.
My advice:
-ethi 12 or -ethi 16
-dcoin sc
-dcri 15
-fanmin 50
-tt 65
-ttli 70
RX460 has slower memory compared to RX470/RX480, DAG switches take more time (5-10 sec vs 3-5 sec).

hey just started using this miner with an old rx 460 saphire 4gb (pls dont bully my graphics card)

I was surprised it did anything at all with how old it is, had a few questions though

I've tried two different configs, one was just eth and sia, other was the eth+all and allcoins one, based on most profitable at miningpoolhub.

I was wondering what the best setup for this old card would be (I read all the readme's but i wasn't sure what the up to date opinion was)

I tried this config first

EthDcrMiner64.exe
-epool us-east1.ethereum.miningpoolhub.com:20536
-ewal **
-eworker **
-epsw x
-dpool stratum+tcp://hub.miningpoolhub.com:20550
-dwal **
-dpsw x
-dcoin sia
-ttli 80

but wasnt getting eth shares

now im using this config

EthDcrMiner64.exe
-epool us-east.ethash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:17020
-ewal **
-eworker **
-esm 2
-epsw x
-allcoins 1
-dpool stratum+tcp://hub.miningpoolhub.com:20550
-dwal **
-dpsw x
-dcoin sc
-ttli 80

I added ttli 80 because I was afraid my card would blow up how old it is.

Also my start.bat looks like this

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 us-east.ethash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:17020 -ewal ** -eworker ** -esm 2 -epsw x -allcoins 1 -dpool stratum+tcp://hub.miningpoolhub.com:20550 -dwal ** -dpsw x -dcoin sc -ttli 80

output looks like this:

On another note... Who here mines with Nicehash to be paid in BTC? Was by far most profitable mining for me... Is there an alternative to nicehash that I can keep using through Claymore?

MiningPoolHub has auto algo switch with Auto Exchange option. Connect to the Ethash port and it will switch among Ethash forks.
Another option is mining directly to an exchange address, where you set auto sell for the mined coin. You can use a pool-switching app, to mine different coins on the same algo.

Sorry that went a bit over my head... Currently I'm mining ETH and DCR on the Nicehash server and they pay weekly in BTC. I'm manually putting in the exchange but I'm wondering if there's another one similar to Nicehash?

Really? It's been almost 40 h since NiceHash hack and you still think you are mining for them and you will get paid. MiningPoolHub is something you are looking for. As mentioned they autoswitch you between most profitable coins and autoexchange to the coin of your choice.

I have to second that recommendation, use MultiPoolHub. I tried several pools before settling on MultiPoolHub, it has a good selection of coins and it's autoexchange feature is brilliant and, unlike most pools, has a low withdrawal limit, support is very good too, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=472510.4800

I don't know if Nicehash allows you to choose which forks to mine within the same algo. Nicehash throws your miner the mining session that is paid best ATM - be it Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Ubiq, Metaverse or any other fork with the same Ethash algo. You mine someone's order.
If you are looking to leave Nicehash, you can mine directly ETH or ETC (more risky) and DCR directly on exchange accounts and set Auto-Sell (Bittrex allows it). Whenever a deposit comes to your Bittrex ETH wallet, it is sold at market price for BTC.
Use this scheme with caution.
