@Claymore: BUG REPORT.

TL;DR: please run reboot.bat by -minspeed if r>=1 (not only with r=1).


Win10, miner 10.0, latest blockchain drivers (23 Aug). It does not reboot if -minspeed not reached and -r X set (X>1), just restarts miner.
This, formally speaking, is not a bug (since README says it reboots if r=1). But by logic, if one sets r>1 (that is, wants reboot on either error or by timer), seems reasonable to reboot also by -minspeed.

The real use case: unstable rig instance after miner restart (first boot ok but any miner restart may fail).
1) pool drops connection every 24h (some pools)
2) miner reconnects, but system hangs and reboots
3) AMD driver resets clocks to default
4) miner starts with default clocks and has low hashrate (AMD driver changes it only after miner restarted)
5) miner restarts by -minspeed, rates set to ok, but unstable system hangs and reboots again...
6) loop to 3 (default clocks again)

If miner reboots on -minspeed instead of restart, all would be ok (since new clocks are already set, and reboot is by command, not by driver error).

Using AB/Trixx to preset clocks will resolve the issue, but I prefer to set rates in the miner.


ANOTHER ISSUE: does anybody have reboots on Linux with NVIDIA on OpenCL error? I set -r1 but even if some card has 0 H/s, and/or -minspeed is set, miner does not react and does not reboot neither restart. Anybody to confirm?

Here you have an example o fmining lbry and eth:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0xD69af2A796A737A103F12d2f0BCC563a13900E6F/YourWorkerName -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://lbry.suprnova.cc:6256 -dwal Redhex.my -dpsw x -dcoin lbc


You can read the first pages and the FAQ for more information

Show us your bat and config files.

i read the first page and i searched and nothing came up.
using dpools and epools text config.. how do i set the coin to lbry?
i tried , DCOIN: lbc but its still showing dcr.

Please, all that have a RX 480 8GB (Shappire Nitro + 8GB) can post the best values for "-dcri"? For now I set "-dcri 23" cause I think that when I increase it to 24, 25 or more Claymore seems unstable and sometimes my hashrate fluctuates. Many thanks in advance

Kinda new to ETH mining. I have 3 miners on Nvidia and just built one using AMD MSI RX 580 8g Gaming X cards. All are running Claymore in ETH only mode, Nvidias on 9.8 and AMD on 10.0. I'm in process of optimizing the hashrates on the RX 580s. I've modded the bios using the PolarisBiosMod Editor (new one that automatically copies the values from 1750 to others) and I've updated to latest AMD blockchain drivers. Increased hashrate from 21.3 to 26.7 but I see others doing upwards of 30. I've downloaded latest beta of MSI Afterburner and can't seem to improve the hashrate like I could on the Nvidias. I see people doing some tweeking with WattMan but I don't know if it works on RX 580s and if so, where to find it?

Thanks for the reply Spitkicker.  The Musicoin pool I mine from requires the use of an ETH miner (see here: https://gmc.epool.io/#/help) pointed where it is.  The musicoins are mined fine and I can confirm them in my wallet.  It's just the DCR that's a problem. 

I pulled the batch info from config.txt as you suggested, filled in with current info, and ran it.  Both music coin and DCR are coming up as authorized, eth (musicoin) shares are accepted just like before but still getting rejected DCR shares    What else could it be?  I'm about to email Suprnova and say wtf mate.

Thank fo miner. I understand the potential Nvidia not yet been revealed?

While using Claymore miner i cannot see Youtube  (im using Linux Mint )

VLC or others player can be used
If i play Castlevania LOS (wine) it plays normally on GTX 1060.
but problem with youtube

One of ways - download any videos from youtube unfortunately is uneasy

P.s.
Please add option for summ to for ONE card only, DevFee to 5%
I think it boost Mh/s for all .

Exact same problem here... My 580's are also sapphires.. I'm using latest Blockchain drivers. Anyone else here getting loss in hashing when turning settings up in AB?

Yeah I'm also getting wild fluctuations from as low as 86MH back up to 154MH next minute. Seeing a big knock on the calculated hashrate that is being pulled through by nanopool as well... Specially around the time Dev fee kicks in. Claymore said he was working on something that might ease the impact of dev fee?

Hey Everyone,

After many failed attempts, I've run out of options that I currently comprehend and ask for your help.  I'm currently successfully mining Musicoin and unsuccessfully mining DCR out of curiosity and obviously not profit.  No matter what I seem to do, 100% of my DCR shares fail.  Here's what I've gathered and attempted based on reading here, watching YouTube, praying to every god I can think of, etc..

1) Turned off MSI Afterburner (I have 2-1070s)
2) Changed my intensity to 80
3) Tried changing port to 3344 as per other earlier posts
4) Changed back to what suprnova states is correct for Claymore 5) I'm running Claymore 10.0
6) I've tried it on 2 separate machines
7) Again, Musicoin mining is succesful
8 )....
9) Drink
10) Not profiting

Here's what I'm seeing on Claymore

This is my batch file

If there is something glaringly obvious or I've missed something somewhere back, I apologize in advance.  Thanks for your time.

*flame suit on*

You'r welcome . hmm.... i will try it too later )

Which blockchain driver did you use?  I have not found any of them to be stable.  Also, I have had the same results with the Sapphire rx 580 8g cards when changing the bios.  I can't get them to hash as the 480 8g rates that I can get with a simple bios mod.  Always lower, and some of the cards are lower just because and I can't seem to do anything that affects them for the good, and any increase in clock speeds seems to just slow them down.

Wondering if you guys can help me. I've been mining for a while and am pretty good at trouble shooting but this one has me stumped.
On my first rig of all Rx 480's I was able to get them back up to 30+ mg/h each once I installed the blockchain driver.
Now my second rig which is an asus prime z270-A has 5 Rx 580's all 8gb. When i first set it up and it was all stock one card would hash at 23 and the 4 would hash at 21. Once I installed blockchain drivers and AB, the one that hashed at 23 now does 27 and the other ones around 23.
Heres the weird part, I cant get the 4 that are stuck 23 any higher, in fact when I turn up the settings in AB I actually loose hashing power from those 4 cards, they go down to 21. While the other card doesn't mind.

Any suggestions? I'd appreciate it

See first post or readme.txt (-di command).

Since building my first rig last June, i've always had this rock-stable settings for six of my Asus Dual OC 580s 8GB Samsung memory

-cclock 1260
-mclock 2050
-cvddc 925mV
-mvddc 925mV

This yields me a constant 29.1 to 29.3 across all cards (175 total) and pulls about 1175 up to 1200w. High, I know but they go for weeks until needing a restart.

Earlier this week, I played with them again to squeeze in few more Mh. These are my settings:
-cclock 1140
-mclock 2075
-cvddc 875
-mvddc 875

They average a total of 177.5 now and cards hashes from 29.5 up to 30.0. But the best thing is they now only pull 1035w dual-mining with DCR.

If you clock through Claymore it will override anything you do in AB

Thank you man, i mod bios with 1500 and i decrease the memory clock to 2030 and my speed is 29.3 now

Will definitely try your clock settings. My claymore settings should look like this -cvddc 925 -mvddc 900  -cclock 1275 -mclock 2050, right?

One thing, is it required to reset clocks in AB when clocking through Claymore?
