R-280 - 290H/s(230W), R-380 - 200H/s(130W). Really??? Very curious algo. Cheesy

There seems to be an issue with -li mode.
I have tested out -li 2 and -li 8 for alle cards (unmodded rx 480)

I get the same sol/s reporting rate when running with -i 6.  But far lass power use. But in the pool I only get about half the sol/s when running with -li 2.
Could there be a reporting error when running low intensity mode?

Exactly! Once I installed v12 I got stability problems on all 3 rigs (mixed 280s and 290s) I guess from the heavier Vram utilization, which is clocked to 1500 on all cards (no bios mod, just MSI aft)  So I read here about the li mode, so I switched it on and noticed immediate 20% drop in consumption and same hashrate in miner. Thought hm... too good to be true ?? But ok, let's give it a try. I mined in coinmine.pl pool for 1 night and the reported by pool speed was more than 30% lower over this period. I switched to flypool - the same. Finally removed li mode and speeds in pool improved (and payouts consequently) but are still quite far from speeds in miner. In miner I get 5300 H/s total in the pool is like 4300 - 4700 which is a whopping 17% difference. They say pool luck.. ok, but then I should be getting speeds ABOVE what I see in miner from times to times, right? So if this is due to variance the 24h average should be pretty close to what I see in miner. Why is such a big difference ?

Anyone else have such a big gap in reported speed in miner vs pool? Have you tried several pools and noticed which one is closest to speeds in miner?

Cheers

yes, the only pool where i see an accurate hash is at dwarf but they are way too small and luck goes up and down like a rolercoaster

Well its common sense, if it uses much less electricity and all, why would the hashrate stay exactly the same?

Lol, though I found magic stealth optimisation trick.  Cheesy

Going stealthy
Claymore, you could try to reach 450 h/s for 390x  Cheesy

If you could let us know what is the wattage it would be useful, this post considered useless and no point of posting it. Say 390x could reach 555 h/s with 750w, there is not much profit. All miners want is profit/s.
You mean you don't mine for the fun of it??  Cheesy

Back in the old day(Litecoin/Dogecoin) I mine for fun, now a days I'm looking to mine for profits.

if, like me, you test -li for the first time with v12 only, you don't know hashrate is bad ...

That's not what at least I mean. What I mean is that the reported hash rate in Claymore differ wildly from the reported hash rate pool-side. Something that for me is new with version 12 vs. any other version. Previously the reported hash rate as per Claymore software was very similar to the pool side reported result, not so with version 12.

+1,

Definitely problem with -li command. I'm not using it righ now. On pool, i'm getting 10-15% smaller hashrate.

Same, pool hash rate at least 10% lower than hash rate reported by Claymore, and Awesomeminer.

Again:

Do not use -li and -ttli options for now, there is a bug there:

More info:

I will release an update in 1-2 days.

Can someone share his hashrate on ETH and ZEC with MSI RX 470 ARMOR 4G OC?

28M on ETH @1100/1950 with 1500 strap That's on my 480s ...

Hey guys, I don't know how to make this V12 work, had no problem with any version before, my rig is 4x 280x with 2x 750W PSU so I got power, win7 x64, 4g ram, 40g swap file. I tried running from -i 6 to all the way to i 1 on 2 cards, (-i 4,4,1,1 now) and still the rig simply crashes, the gpu driver fails and restart. I'm trying for 3days but every day I wake up I see that it restarted, here's the bluescreen log.

There's nothing in the claymore log this time, previously the 3rd and 4th card failed, now I don't know which one, log doesn't say, simply stops.

edit: 15.12 drivers

This is what was happening to me as well. Something about the Atikmdag crashing, which i believe is the driver. So what i did is reinstall fresh driver after wiping old ones. Then run my cards without any kind of OC software running. Since then i am stable.  

you used the same driver 15.12? what is your -i setting? gonna try -i 2 now and when i come back home, will reinstall drivers, i'm using DDU to remove previous ones.

I have RX 480's so i use the newer drivers, -i 4 for each card. Ive done higher but the temps were about 80C and im trying to stay in the 60-70C range. Working great so far

yes , its a bug confirmed by Claymore.
