Hello, I'm having an issue with Claymore not detecting my GPUs.

Claymore has been working great with my two RX 480s in the PCIe 16x slots in my motherboard. Since I want to see if I can use more GPUs, I bought two 1x->16x PCIe risers that are now plugged in to my mobo's PCIe 1x slots with my two 480s. They seem to be working fine in Windows -- they're shown in the device manager and in Radeon Settings. But when I start Claymore, it's saying that no GPUs were found.

Any ideas?

Did you connect power to the riser cards?

According to what I observed, it may be legitimate misreporting of Eth hashrate whilst dual-mining.

Probably you mean that different GPU rounds take different time in your tests, am I correct? There are two reasons for it at least:
1. You started two separate miners, both try to load GPU completely so different GPU rounds will have different time. My miner uses different approach. You can press "s" key to see hashrate for latest GPU round, press it many times and see if there are fluctuations, for Polaris card you should notice them but they are related to item #2 below.
2. At some circumstances GPU can be slower for a second or so, then work a few seconds at 100%, and so on. Especially Polaris cards. It was a problem in v9.0 but I've almost fixed it in recent versions, these fluctuations are low and rare now even on Polaris. v8 is free of this issue, but has lower speed for second coin.
Anyway, may be I should also show additional counter that measures hashrate for a minute when "s" is pressed, I will try to add it in next update.

So I recently added two GTX 1060 cards to my mining rig to go with my trusty AMD 7970. I have the latest AMD and CUDA drivers installed, specifically AMD 17.6.1 and Nvidia CUDA 8.0.61. I'm mining in dual mode with ETH and DCR, and the 1060's are brand new and not overclocked (at least not yet).

So everything was going fine until about 5:20 am last night. Looking through the log files here are the relevant bits if info:

Code:

05:20:50:355 161c NVML: cannot get current temperature, error 15

...
05:21:19:101 161c WATCHDOG: GPU error, you need to restart miner :(
...
05:21:20:339 161c Restarting OK, exit...

When the next log file begins after the restart, one of the GTX 1060 cards isn't even recognized:

Code:

05:21:23:634 101c OpenCL platform: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing
05:21:23:638 101c OpenCL platform: NVIDIA CUDA
05:21:23:644 101c OpenCL initializing...

05:21:24:291 101c Total cards: 2
05:21:33:321 101c NVML version: 8.376.51

I noticed that when I ran GPU-Z to check on the driver versions, it recognized all three cards BUT one of the 1060's didn't show a checkmark for CUDA anymore! After I restarted and checked GPU-Z again, both cards showed checkmarks for CUDA again. Weird.

These are the driver versions according to GPU-Z

Code:

22.19.171.1 (Crimson 17.6.1) Beta
21.21.13.7651 (ForceWare 376.51) Beta

I'm using Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit with all the latest updates, and Claymore's Dual miner v9.5.

I don't think the cards overheated since just before the errors above the miner reported temperatures that should be well within specifications:

Code:

05:19:46:774 161c GPU0 t=80C fan=67%; GPU1 t=82C fan=75%, GPU2 t=79C fan=70%

I'm stumped. Obviously stability is king for any mining rig, and I'm concerned this may keep happening but I don't know what to do to address it. Any ideas?

reported hashrate depends on the valid shares you submit.

You can have lower or higher than the calculated one.

You should atleast wait 24 hours and see how much they are aligned.

If there's a -10% difference it's likely that you are having memory errors.

Are you saying maybe overclocked too much / under volt? Or true hardware issue? Didn't think this would be the case if claymore was able to run stably for 24/7 Huh

OK I have beat this old dog hard, is there some setting in Win7 Ult 64 that you have to set to see more than 3 cards? Hve just built 2 seven head machines with Asus z270A Celeron dual core 3gig 8gig ram and so far 6 each evga gtx 1060 SSC 6 gig cards. Sad to see all that hash power resting and not working. I really need help on this one. Great software and runs with no rejects at all for me. Really cant see doing win10 cause of all the junk in it. I was a beta tester for it and had to back away.

Question about ETH mining on ethermine.org pool...

My rig within Claymore is hashing at ~198MH, but the pool is displaying the following:

Hashrate as reported by miner to pool = ~198MH
Effective current hashrate = 174MH
Avg Effective hashrate 24hr = 175MH

I know some variation between miner and pool is expected, but >20MH seems like a lot to me!!!

Anyone experienced this before? Huh

Fixes? Or known issue? Thanks!!!

Hello.
I am using R9 380 Nitro Sapphire.
When i am mining solo Ethereum all is working fine, but when i dual mine with DECRED i am get artefacts.
Why is that?
Thank you!

Any tips on improving gtx 1070 hashrate?
Currently I'm getting ~81,8Mh/s with 3x overclocked gtx 1070, but whattomine.com shows they should do ~85,5Mh/s. When mining only ETH the hashrate increases to ~82,5, so stil lower than expected.
Other coins are mined with exactly the same hashrate as showed on whattomine.

Can't seem to find api.txt - anyone knows if documentation for Claymore API can be found anywhere?

Download v9.5 for Windows, unpack it and check "Remote manager" folder.

Oh shoot, knowing about this could have saved me some work

I have been working on a new log format, because I was not really happy about the existing one. The one I have written makes a http request to port 3333 and parses the result. It writes two separate logs that looks that look like this:

My script is working, but using the `miner_getstat1` would have been a lot cleaner. There is one thing missing from miner_getstat1 though and that is a timestamp.

I'm not sure how to send a TCP request to the API in Linux. Can you provide an example?

Ok I figured it out:

Code:

$ exec 3<>/dev/tcp/192.168.1.186/3333
$ echo -e '{"id":0,"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"miner_getstat1"}' >&3

Hi, stills necessary run 15.12 crimson version or can run newer one like 16.3.2 (for example).

For the new cards, you should run the new drivers.
