Hey guys, I'm about to recalibrate my rig to try out this dual miner.  I read through some of the posts but not all of them, and I was wondering is Crimson 15.12 still the best driver for R9 Fury's (and R9 Nano.. seeing that the Radeon Pro Duo is 2x Nano's)  on Windows 10?


Also, is it safe to download legacy drivers from guru3d?

http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/amd-radeon-software-crimson-15-12-driver-download.html



I believe 16.3 is the best driver for R9 Fury.

Do you know from first hand experience with this miner and the specified cards? I only ask because Claymore states on the first page:
Quote
For AMD cards, Catalyst (Crimson) 15.12 is required for best performance and compatibility. You can get very bad results for different drivers version, or miner can fail on startup.

I use his miner for Zcash, and that is infact the case, 16.32 is the preferred driver for Claymore 12.5 Zcash, but this miner is a different beast, and I didn't see any mention of the R9 Fury in his OP, but I did see that he mentioned 15.12... in Zcash he mentioned the 16.xx drivers, which I use.


I have quiet a few r9 furys, over 120 that is Smiley if you have r9 fury and running claymore, doesn't it say use 16.3 for best results?

Ah nice, good to hear that your setup is getting decent results, 120m/s with how many Fury's? 

If you look on the first page though, there is no mention of 16.3 for best results, he mentions 15.12 for "older" cards, and latest for RX, I just rechecked.  On the Zcash miner, yes, he states 16.3 for best results with R9 Fury's, which is what I use right now for Zcash.

MSI R9 390X
connected directly on pcie 16 slot, undeclocked, overvolted. Only below 1000 MHz (1080 stock) and over +35 mV i get any kind of stability (hour or two)

Keep getting GPU 1 hangs in OpenCL call error.
Windows says "Default Radeon WattMan settings have been restored due to unexpected system failure".

Current drivers 17.1.1, this hapened with 15.12 too.

Furmark QHD + 4x MSAA crashes when reaches around 40% of the test.


Is this card candidate for rma?
Anyone had anything similar happen?

Rest of the rig works fine no matter the driver version.

Need help.


I use Crimson for clocks and msi afterburner for fans. Fixed my opencl issue I was having for a week.

you can try also --cl-local-work 128 --cl-global-work 8192


I have no %10 speedup with gtx1060, I have %2.5. I use gtx1060 9gbps edition, unfortunately all of them have performance problem for gtx1060 9gbps edition




try this!

@echo off
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 2000 -U -S eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -FS us1.ethermine.org:4444 -O yourwallet.name


it work wonderful with mine 6x 1060 3gb giving 130mh(claymore) to 145/150mh (ethminer!!)


if you want to mine with amd just put -G to -U

Unfortunately, it doesn't work too. I could reach 19.77 mh maximum as stable. I suppose that algorithms must be updated for 9gbps edition, because another people that have 9gbps edition have this problem

I have a strange card and maybe someone can help or is familiar with a 0.00mhs hashing card.

I isolated a troubled 7970 and moved it to a separate computer. It runs windows ans linux fine, I just watched a 2hr movie and rendered some 3D scenes.  However when start up the 7970 it mines at 0.00mhs
and keeps on going forever at 0.00.  Has anyone had this happen before ?  It was hanging up in a rack of 5 and causing claymores to crash but alone it doesn't even produce a hash yet it runs and keeps on running getting the requests and works a regular video card. I have already tried several flashes all with the same result.

I have r9 280x mining on dwafpool current hashrate @ 12.5mh mining with claymore dual ethereum is that normal?
or some driver issue?
used to have around 24 using ethminer.

also i have gtx 970, hashrate @ 3.4mh , how to get it back to like 18mh like in ethminer



what are the factor to determine mining hashrate?
server/internet speed/ does it play a part?
What??? From where to 24 mhs on r9 280x cards?
I have only 12-14 mhs on ethminer.

Miners with big farm already updated from 8.1 to 9.6? What is final results?

I have strange results. Hashrate is unstable. First GPU#0 (with HDMI Dummy) always drop from 27.6 to 24Mh/s
Using ASM #2 on RX 470/480/580 4G

I'm trying to resolve an issue with remote management in Windows.

I've tried remotely managing my miners using Remote Desktop, TeamViewer, and Claymore's Built-In Remote Management, but unless I physically connect a monitor to one of the GPUs, the miner software (EthDcrMiner64.exe) will only display GPU temps and make core/voltage changes to 1 GPU (the one with the HDMI Emulator Plug).

The odd thing is that I can access the Temperatures, Voltages, and Frequencies of all cards within WattMan using this same setup, but Claymore will only read the values from 1 card (all 7 cards do hash just fine). It would be far more convenient to manage GPU settings within config.txt itself as WattMan is tedious to configure Core & Memory clocks and Voltages for 7 cards on 4 rigs.

My setup is as follows:

  • Windows 10 64-bit
  • MSI Z170A Gaming M5
  • 7x - Sapphire Nitro (non-Plus) Radeon RX 480 8GB
  • AMD Catalyst 16.9.1
  • Headless HDMI Emulator connected to the 1 GPU that is detected (without this I cannot access WattMan).

Has anyone else run in to a similar situation? Or alternatively, I'm open to switching to Linux, however I have not found a way to underclock memory voltages within Ubuntu.

Just downloaded 9.6

Getting ETH: Share Rejected
Socket Was closed remotely (by pool)
Eth: Connection lost, retry in 20 sec...

Happened twice but seems ok now.

Hey guy I have 4 rigs running on etherpool and today 3 of them one by one just stopped reporting their hashrate but all 4 still work, it's just that 3 out of 4 do not report.  Can someone please explain what seems to be the problem? Huh  Thanks!

And I did restart the miner on one of them but it didn't help.  Undecided

I noticed this as well, thought my miners were down but shares seem to be the same

and you get less from DCR then from 1Mhs... and drop is more and DCR speed is meaningless when AMD get 2x more with 2-3x weaker GPU

ethereum speed depend mostly on memory OC, 1060 should do 23-25mhs OC-ed

Maybe more if Claymore did not hate NV, as dual mining is unusable to NV dual no asm optimizations and hash drop is 80% more on ETH on NV compared to AMD  Grin
What? dual mining works fine on nvidia. I lose about 1Mh/s per card at dcri 59

Has anyone had an issue over the past week that their Mh/s drops when dual mining? My Mh/s is a steady 25 but when I dual mine it drops to 6-14. I'm using an AMD RX 480, and Nvidia 1060.

I found some messages that slowdown for bigger DAGs is related to my miner only, and sgminer is ok. I would like to see some proofs instead of rumors from youtube.
So if someone can post the command line for sgminer for some future epoch (e.g. #150 or higher) here and the link to sgminer binary that should be used for tests, it would be good and we all could confirm it.


Wolf0 confirmed that its false. The Youtube guy was incorrect.

https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases

34mhs per 1070 but only possible on samsung memory + gainward/palit

miner should be even better for GTX 1060 +10% speedup


How do we set up it?
