Claymore's ZCash/BTG GPU Miner v12.6 gives only 28 H/s on RX550 under Windows 7. Is that OK? Also it designates card as "gfx804" instead of "Lexa" which is the name of the chip.

As others have stated, the RX550 is not very good graphics card for mining. However, it should be capable of much more than 28 h/s. My guess is that Claymore did not code in support for the "Lexa" chip in version 12.6. You may have to try another miner if he doesn't plan to add support for it in his future releases. Also, just to make sure nothing is wrong on your end, please verify that you have the correct drivers installed. You can refer to the first post of this thread for a list of the best drivers to use.

I think the ZEC miner is already very efficient.

And how Fiji and 17.xx.x drivers, bad support 560? I'm waiting for version 12.7

I guess, because just a very few ppl mine with 560s, because they are not so efficient, so worthless to bother with it.

they are not so efficient as it is not optimized miner

They are not so efficient because they are weak. The bad thing is that 560s are the only available cards atm in stores, but ppl shouldn't really buy them for mining.

Why 7850 is more effective?

I don't think it is more effective, but that is an old card...

7850 - 12.6 - 160sol (1050/1350)
560 - 12.6 - 140sol (1216/1750 timing mod)

560 all parameters should be more effective

The 7850 is an old card, so it is cheaper.

Only use it when your electricity price is low. Otherwise, it might not be profitable.

I am using Claymore ZCash/BTG Miner v12.6 with Windows 10 for some AMD gpu cards. I decided to mine a different coin that has the Equihash algorithm. After I open the .bat file Claymore opens and immediately displays in red font "Unknown Option" for the wallet address. Claymore continues to run, it connects to the mining pool server, the hash rate speed is fine. Why does Claymore not recognize the wallet address I have entered in the .bat file? What is wrong?

The wallet address is used with EWBF for my Nvidia card and it works fine with that miner.

This is what Claymore displays after I run the .bat file:

C:\Users\xxxxxxxx\Desktop\Claymore Miner v12.6>ZecMiner64.exe -zpool pool.com:5555 -zwal wallet address.worker -zpsw z -ftime 1 -i 6 -tt 75 -allpools 1
UNKNOWN OPTION wallet address.worker

I agree, the 380X performs much better with Ethereum, I’m getting between 140-150mhs on my six 380X rig. This is also what makes me think Claymore maybe able to tweak it a little more for ZEC, hence why I’m willing to compensate him for his time. I also agree with patience, if your not mining right now, it’s not the time to try and buy hardware and going with inferior hardware does mean no resale value.

While I don’t disagree with you that the 380X and 560 are not the newest or greatest cards for ZEC mining, you have to remember not everyone has the resources to go out and buy 580’s, 1080’s or the next greatest card to be released. Not everyone has a warehouse full of miners. As I say all the time, don’t forget the budget hobbyist miner, that’s how all this crypto currency stuff got started. One guy with an idea and zero resources. My point, the little guys are the ones who innovate, even on crappy hardware, these rich guys are just after profits, they don’t care about the technology or privacy. I’m also offering to send Claymore a ZEC donation if there’s anything he can do for the 380X, while others are here whining about his fee and actively searching for ways to thwart it.

Don't get me wrong, I have 380xs too, but i don't mine zec anymore with them. Not the greatest card for zec mining, I just said, it's not a good decision to buy (atm way too overpriced) 560s to mine. I understand everyone want to hop in mining business as soon as it's possible, but waiting would be more benefical instead of buying 560s rigs. There won't be ROI and once the GPU industies will be back on track as normally these cards will have literally 0 resell value.

They are not very powerful. So if you consider the cost of the whole system, it is not good for mining.

some noob trying to cheat fee

It could be virus.

Lame, I understand the frustration with the 2% fee, but no one should be trying to beat it. I’m sure Claymore has put hundreds of hours into developing this miner, it’s only fair that he receives compensation for his hard work. This is likely just a creative way to get greedy people and newbs to download a virus as someone else already mentioned. That being said, I have a couple questions:

@Claymore, how’s that new version coming along? It’s been about 5 weeks since your last post and I see that new versions of the XMR and Dual Miner have already been released.

@Claymore how much ZEC would be required to bribe you into making some improvements for Tonga chips, specifically the R9 380x in this release? Being a budget miner with a six R9 380x rig I need to squeeze as many hashes as I can out of it as it consumes a very power hungry 1000 watts. Is there anyway to increase the hashrate on these to be greater than 225 h/s?

I think the ZEC miner is already very efficient.
