I'm having a issue with Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 on my 1060 3GB.

ETH only I get about 18Mh/s, dual w/ LBC I get 16Mh/s (Eth) and 33Mh/s (LBC).  Sia is a similar story.  My LBC hashrate should be closer to 150 Mh/s. 

This is on a EVGA 1060 3GB SC.  I have ample power going to the cards.  I've tried googling all over, but can't find much mention of something like this happening. On Linux I'm using the proprietary drivers.

(Note: This is on two different machines. The only common hardware is the graphics card itself)

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have the same issue..

Using 2 rx 570 directly to the board, all fines.

Adding 1 card using a riser.. and

openCL error -61 - cannot allocate big buffer for DAG. Check readme.txt for possible solutions
opencl error -38 - cannot write buffer for dag

I uninstalled the driver.. put 16gb pagefile, reinstalled drivers, repatch.. nothing works Sad

I removed the card plugged with the pci riser and still the same error.. I am confused

any idea?!?

I've been mining successfully using Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.5  on Windows 10 using 2x480 4gb cards.  The last two days Ive been getting an error the "DAG file (epoch# 129) creation failed" and "open cl error cannot write big buffer with dag"

Here are the options I've been running it with:
-epool us1.ethpool.org:3333 -ewal 0x0eaccc7749599bccd3b91a41afd51f9f45f895e8.riglediggle3 -epsw x -dpool http://dcr.pool.mn:4722 -dwal lilbit.1 -dpsw 1

This system has been running fine for months, so I'm assuming things were broken by a hardware failure or windows update.  Any other options?

I'm guessing Claymore made some fixes by now but on Apr 13, 2016 there were other people getting that error (I did a search in the forum) and Claymore responded with this"

"Read OP:
1. Check disc space.
2. remove DAG files and start miner.

I will fix all these issues soon."

not sure if that will help send you in the right direction or not.

I'm assuming you are getting it on both cards.  If so, I doubt it's a hardware failure.   If it's only on one card, then maybe.

Is it possible to set RemoteManager for monitoring 2 rigs with external ip? They have different local ip.
Could anybody help me?
Thanks

Time to sell out??

I brought a RX470 a few months ago for AU$270.. now looking online all cards that are good for mining are sold out everywhere.  and now RX470 cards are selling for around AU$350 on ebay.  I'm trying to judge the perfect time to sell the GPU and just use that money to buy Ethereum. 

If I sell the card now I could buy 0.8 ethereum, which would otherwise take 3 months to mine and after 3 months the difficulty would be such that the card is pretty useless anyway..  check the calc here: http://www.mycryptobuddy.com/EthereumMiningCalculator



I would not sell it, and keep it mining as it's really profitable now... time will tell, but ETH may go even higher Wink

Nice calculator. Also try this one:

Have fun!

I use pool dwarfpool and i have e-mail send when miner stop.
dwarfpool setting for e-mail is   : write email instead password.
Claymore readme:  parameter password is  -epsw
My setting is   -epsw [email protected]   but when miner stop (crash) nothing happens. Miner not work hour and not e-mail send.
Why?

My mail from dwarf ended up in spam. Have you checked there?
I checked- no nothing in spam.

From FAQ:

- Miner freezes if I put cursor to its window in Windows 10 until any key is pressed. Sometimes miner freezes randomly until any key is pressed.
  You should make some changes in Windows:

When miner works with 1070 rigs pc freezes too much. I couldn't see anything that use too much cpu or ram in task manager. But if I enable intel graphic card and make it primary vga for windows there is no problem.
Can you help about it?

Can the RX 570 reach 30 MH/s as RX 480 with memo time straps?

For my XFX RX470 I have set to underclock and undervolt to 0.86v which reduced the power from 80w to 65w.   Currently getting 22Mh/s

Also configured to run on task scheduler with windows startup since windows updates kept stopping my miner.  Guide here: https://www.stephenmann.net/ethereum-mining





Why not mine ETC instead ?  The difficulty isn't that high yet? It's slowly going up in price.

yep.  buy a new card if you want to mine ETH.  Your card only has 2Mb.  it's not enough.

(BTW - this is a prime example of the same question being asked over and over.  a look just a few pages back and you would see the same answers)

Here's the description of what "Optimize for Compute Performance" does
Is it works only for Windows 10? Or Windows 7 is fine too? I cant find the "Optimize for Compute Performance" option in NVCP on my Win7.

If you have the latest Nvidia drivers installed and there's no "Optimize for Compute Performance" option, it is possible that this option is only in driver for Windows 10.

Anyway, I'm not sure if Windows 7 users need this option as they don't have a problem that Windows 10 users faces that the speed is only ~3.5MH/s.

Lets say I have a rig with 2x1080Ti mining Skein with CCMiner. Can I add AMD card so this rig and mine ETH with Claymore at the same time?

I want CCminer use Nvida cards and Claymore use AMD cards.

Is that possible?

Claymore Dual Miner Windows version + Windows 10 + Dual Mining Sia From Miningpoolhub, Receipt For Miner Hang


The program will stuck ,console not updating,  every one or two hour.

If I set automatically reboots via -r 1, it doesn't reboots automatically,
 I have to press enter on the miner,
then it says SC the connection timed out and will go ahead to reboot.

The same thing happens on both of my windows 10 rigs.

Linux version, with miningpoolhub, never had such problem.

Is this known problem?
It is wired connection.

Is that overclocked?

It's undervolted but not overclocked, this might be the issue, will try.
Checked the log, it does say


1e0   checkread timeout


and hang, what does this error msg mean?
