with 5x sapphire r9 380 2G

also with r9 270 2g, they crash with I 2

but single sapphire r9 380 2G on other computer runs at i2

same here

r9 270 2g with 1200/1500 -i 2 seem to be fine for me
edit: 270x sorry

my 7970 went to 47 Sol/s and my 290x to 57 Sol/s, thats some nice improvement (-i 2 used), thanks

I'm getting an extra 5% or so going from 2.0 to 2.1 and using -i 2 on Hawaii cards. CPU usage is only slightly higher and still only seeing partial consistent load across 3 cores on a 3.7GHz Thuban. Uses about 6GB of swapfile instead of 3GB on v2.0.

v2.0 (Rock-solid stable for over 19hrs)


v2.1


CPU Usage before and after


Dev fee 4 minutes now ?

Claymore, maybe u can change the color of the "dev fee shares" from green to blue or something. So people stop asking. Hehe.

I'll think about it, may be it's a good idea. The problem is that as soon as "devfee: connect to..." string is appeared, some people think that devfee mining is started. I don't want to hide any devfee messages, but this misunderstanding is annoying. So may be new color for devfee time is a good idea.
I would leave "Devfee connect..." the same, change color of "Devfee share found", so it is obvious to those who don't read FAQ when it is actually dev mining, and when it is trying to connect.

one of my 280x rig won't start mining with "-i 2", just 0 h/s and on and on .. "-i 0" and "-i 1" works

Claymore, is this ok that CPU overloaded again in v2.1 with "-i 1 or 2"?  CPU exactly, not GPU.
And as result higher hashrate at 390x with "-i 0", but not with 1 or 2.

How about yellow to make it really stand out from the rest of the text?

Added another 5% or so on all my rigs with older cards using the -i 2 switch.

On my Rigs with newer cards, such as the RX series, I actually seen a slight decrease versus version 2.0. I have tried all three intensity levels and even the -i 2 gives a bit less sols and the CPU usage is greater than in version 2.0. I am still playing around as it might have been my lowered clocks, but it seems this version was geared more toward the older cards.
I get about 2-3H/s boost on all my 470s and 480s, 4GB and 8GB versions, most sapphire some others. Just have dual cores, mostly celerons, one APU.  You can try setting ZecMiner priority to above normal in task manager, it may help slightly.  Also check if other processes are using much CPU. Surely there is more room for improvement on Polaris, but I got boost from 1.1 -> 2.0 -> 2.1

Thanks for the suggestion. I might play around a bit more, but according to Claymore's last post this version was mainly for the older cards anyway. I don't run anything but the miner and VNC on the rigs once I get them dialed in, so I doubt setting the task priority higher will help much, but I will test it out anyway.

10% improvement on 290. Great work as always Claymore. Let's push it to 100 Sol/s shall we  Grin

Yes I did not have time to improve performance on Polaris yet.

Thanks for the clarification! Great job though on increasing the performance on the older cards. Now I know to focus on tweaking them and not worry about my RX rigs for now, I'll keep them on V2.0. Smiley

Will there be a miner for mining two coins at the same time, like ZEC and ETH?
