Topic: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux) - page 873. (Read 6590565 times)

Yeah just one of my cards can't take v4 for whatever reason and I verified it stand-alone being the only card in the system, fan %100 and
no volt drop to eliminate heat and lack of power as a cause - still fails. It takes the other bios just fine. (Lower quality RAM? Who knows.)

I tried testing the miner with just one card and only mining ethereum to eliminate any power drop or dual mining interference as a cause
and I still get quite a high percentage of rejected shares. (good cards and crappy card alike.)

My next options are to try a different mining pool, try the stock bios, try the older non-patched driver, try without WattTool settings etc...

I think what I might do if the simple fixes don't yield any results is to make my own bios.

That would be taking stock (non-oc) bios which runs the CPU @ 1260Mhz and copying the just the ram timing from 1750 to 2000.
Then I'll see if that's stable. If it is, I'll use WattTool to change everything else.

FYI I used to run my main monitor off of the VGA port built into the motherboard, but I found that WattTool will not work unless a display is plugged into one of the cards. Sort of like how AMD Settings won't run unless one is hooked up. I think the driver does something to itself when it detects something.
(That frustrated me to no end and paid like 75 cents a day in extra power costs till I figured it out.) I have ordered an HDMI dummy plug.

Minign in dualmode gives an extrem slowdown of ETH mining ( 2x 380x)

single minin ETH gibes about 42Mhs
ind dual mode 12 MHS

what can be problem ?

thx for Help

@supertux1

I did nearly the same as you.  use v4 for all cards and and lower the power consumption with watttool.
I use the pool ethermine.org and at least clay 9.3 reports 0 rejected. For dcr i am on suprnova with ca. 1.5 % rejected shares.

Hello every one,

I have an odd behavior from dual mining

W10 pro
claymore 9.3
4xRX470 with 1500 straps

if I mine ETh only, everything is normal, after memory overclock, I'm 29Mh/s.
The probleme is, if I dual mine (DCR or SIA), my ETH hashrate is going super low. The only way to not loose too much hashrate is to choose DCRI 1 or 2 but in this case, it's almoste useless to dualmine.
And my memory overclock boosted the hashrate well in single mining but not in dual mining. +100 Mhz on memory? same result in dual mod, +10% in single mode.

I can see the monitoring showing that the GPU is almost always below 1 000 Mhz, even at super low dcri, at 10 dcri, it stays around 850 Mhz in dual ETH SIA.
In ETH only mode, it is higher than 1100Mhz. My GPU are even hotter in single mining than dual!!!

It was the same thing at stock clock/bios. When I was just testing, I lost 30% of my ETH hashrate when I tried dualmining on DCR (using the super basics configs that was as exemples in the readme.txt, I even didn't change the wallet adressses...)

I do use the GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 and others.

Does someone have an idea?

thx folks

Hi everyone!

I have a serious problem!!

I have  a 980 Ti AND a GTX 1060, I can get the GTX 1060 mining on opencl at 19 MH/s BUT the 980 TI can only do 3 MH/s!!!

I'm sure this is a DRIVER PROBLEM, but I can't figure out which driver I could install that SUPPORTS BOTH CARDS!!

NVIDIA DRIVERS:
9xx cards in Windows 7 x64: just use latest/recent drivers from Nvidia website (for example, 368.81). Note that latest 372.54 is slower than 368.81.
9xx cards in Windows 10 x64: you have to use old drivers (for example, 352.xx) and miner built for cuda6.5.
10xx cards in Windows 7 x64: just use latest 372.54 drivers from Nvidia website.
10xx cards in Windows 10 x64: just use latest 372.54 drivers from Nvidia website, note that you must have Win10 Anniversary update.

Can anyone help me get the full potential of my 980TI???

Thank you!!!!

Hi,

I'm running a dual miner Claymore v9.3 rig with 6x Sapphire RX480 Nitro+OC 8GB cards (11260-01-20G) - Samsung Memory
Power supply is a Corsair ATX 1200i.

Modifications:
I'm using v4.rom from Jukebox on five of the cards (GPU0,2,3,4,5) and vdrop+.rom on one of them that has issues. (GPU1)

(These ROMS appear to overclock the memory and/or tighten the timings while reducing the CPU clock. vdrop+.rom is slightly more slower/conservative.)
I use WattTool-.92 to drop the voltage on all of them by 100mv

The Driver is 16.12.1 (patched to pass driver signature checks.)

Power from the wall is about 1050W and card temperatures are around 63C.
The rig is stable in that it does not hang or crash, Claymore is setup to reboot the machine on error, and it'll run all day like a champ:


Here is my config:


Now here is my concern / question: Is such a high rejection rate normal?

That's about a %5 reject rate for ETH and %2 for DCR.

Yeah that's what I'm talking about, how come my 1080 is doing only 25mh/s when your 1070s are doing 30-31mh/s? Are you using windows or linux? Which drivers? Thanks

Hello,

i have a problem: when I start mining (only ETH: -mode 1) at the suprnova.cc pool everything is fine for the first 2-3 minutes. But then I get no more hashes (no "green lines". But it says: Total speed: 25Mh/s, but total shares: 0. Any idea why?

my config:

I upgraded to Claymore 9.3. Seems to be holding stable on socket closed's so far. We'll see.

BTW since we're playing Claymore recurring fees. Does s/he provide technical support?

Are you newbie or what ? I'm in solo direct to the wallet since ver 5.0 or so (maybe wrong, forgot when exactly he implemented solo for ETH).

Sometimes Claymore did the mistakes in his new versions and it do not finds any blocks. He confirmed that bugs, it was about half or year ago. So maybe it happens again. It maybe a bad luck but anyway.

So if anyone in solo mode (direct to the geth) with 9.3 could you please confirm that it finds any blocks. Thanks

Good job newmz, those are nice numbers. I am still AMD all the way, but thinking of building one Nvidia rig, and the numbers from the 1070s you reached are really good. What is the consumption from the wall on the 1070, which model do you use and have you tried dual with? Thanks

only while running windows with sub par memory specs (2gig ram)

you may possibly have run into a system compatibility issue? i would take your dmesg and any logged system errors to the amdgpu-pro mailing list.

possibly also consider using the pure open source driver stack individually instead of the entire amdgpu-pro package if you are up for that kind of thing.

good luck!

I've set Dual-Mining mode, edited the claymore.stub config file and it keeps rejecting shares from Decred... What did I do wrong? Did I maybe put wrong values or edited something I shouldn't in the claymore.stub file? Can someone give me a guide step by step what to do?

1070s and 1060s are great for eth mining. The 1080 not so much.

See my post above, but my 1060's are doing 22.6mh/s and 1070's 30-31mh/s.

2 of each card on asrock h81 pro btc - 600w 108mh/s.

Using Windows 8.1 - I believe some of the recent updates with Windows 10 have messed with ETH mining. With Win8.1 you can find your best driver and KEEP it instead of having Windows 10 ramming the latest driver into your machine without your consent.... like driver rape or something.

I have 2 1060's and 2 1070's which are just mining ETH.

The 1060's (6GB) are set to core -200 mem +750 power 94% and they hash at 22.6 consistently.

The 1070's are similar settings but power at 84% and they do 30-31mh/s.

whole rig using around 600W.

Hey guys,

Wich -mport combo should i use to be able to control gpus afterburner through awesome miner, kinda dont get it. Tried 3333, -3333, 0. nothing helps. I hope i wont need to overclock every rig manually.

Thanks

Nice. You definitely have a lot of time to spare... Wish I did, too

The question still stands: Has anyone else experienced this?
@Claymore: Do you need any more info to check this?

I have heard of MESA drivers being the opensource alternative to AMD GPU PRO of ATI
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amdgpu-pro-1710&num=1
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/05/mesa-17-1-ubuntu-ppa

Is there any experience, and howto, with Claymore ? is it better ?
Does ethdcrminer64 works better with MESA ? (I think of ADL non support by amdgpu pro v17)

Nb: I can make a comparison on my 2xRX480 is someone point me to a howto... but It seems hard to rollback (seen some old howto that imply changing kernel).

Trying to get my rig stable. I'm using miningpoolhub, and the rig freezes when the connection is lost to the stratum server. It's happening from time to time, and the log always shows the same message right at the end:

socket was closed remotely
ETH: Connection lost, retry in 20 sec...
(*system freezes, hard reboot required*)

It mines for several hours (sometimes days) and crashes when the tcp connection is lost (the connection is bound to get dropped every now and then given the nature of tcp/ip).

Sometimes it just freezes right after the "socket was closed" message, and doesn't get to the connection lost message. Freezes the whole OS, which is super annoying. This is not an Internet or firewall issue, I mean, come on, it shouldn't freeze the machine when the connection is dropped.

Windows 10. 16.8.2. 6x red devil rx 480s, stock bios and clocks. Claymore 9.2, -gser 2. Temps running nice and cool, so it's not that.

What gives?!?

How much lower did you have to clock your mem compared to mining ETH only?

I'm asking because I need to apply my overclocks at bios level on my cards so I'm trying to gauge in advance to save time before I start flashing several cards over and over again...
