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.

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

V2.0 killed one of my rigs:S I think CPU dead and 2 gpu dead:( sad sad day!

Report a bug.

On a serious note, it was likely your PSU crapping out taking GPUs and CPU with it.

What type of PSU was this ? bronze gold or plat ?

PSU- EVGA SuperNOVA 1600W and 1300W.
I tried them, works fine on another rig! i will get new CPU 2 morrow and will se- but 2 gpu of 6 are dead!

That sucks its only happend to me one time, i usb riser overloaded and fried one of my cards so watch out for bad risers

i know- will cost me like 10 000 norwegian krone:O very sad day- take 2month to get the money back:S
always worked fine for many mothns no problem- use v2.0 and here we go- killed the rig.

What about the RMA, most cards have 2 year waranties

dont know but im going to check with the website  i got i from and ask if i can return them- had them for like 5 month now.. i think its 2 years waranti i norway two...

v2.1:

- added "-i" option for adjusting mining intensity and CPU usage.
- improved speed for high intensity mode ("-i 2"), about 60H/s on stock 390X, 50H/s on stock 280X.
- since nicehash cannot upgrade their ddos protection, now "-allpools 1" is required for this pool.

PS. OpenCL API uses CPU to wait response from GPU in high intensity mode so it's not easy to fix this issue completely, currently you can use "-i 0" option if you have low-end CPU.

Hi

Thanks for great work

please do something like i4 Smiley

I think my cards(390s) still could do better

I'm getting an extra 15 soles and the cpu usage is low. If i use -i 2 i get 20 extra but my cpu loads to 90%. Great job claymore. U're the best! I'm using an 7950 hd shappire.

why bother with SC it used to pay for power costs now even with 50k hash in SC you make $500 usd for the month, its not even worth the power anymore

mining ETH by itself is better imo

You mean that mining SC as a second coin is not profitable? It takes more electricity than I can earn?



i think unless you eletrity is less than 10 cents per KWH it does and remeber its more stress on your GPU's for little gain

if you  wanna also do cpu mining, you have to put cpu miner in task manager to idle  otherwise you gpu is gonna be slower

My first rig : http://image.prntscr.com/image/115ea08faa664f7e93b64c3c790b6dda.png
Second rig :http://image.prntscr.com/image/8cc8f62040284d2aba5f46782e776c7f.png

The CPU is 2-5% more usage from v2.0 And the power also

but the power ussage is much higger than before http://image.prntscr.com/image/f8a47d78f8b54450988a733f8a195fd8.png

I'm getting about 50h/s using a r9 280 with 1100 GPU clock and 1500 mem clock on the -i 2 setting


which cpu are you using and whats the cpu usage?

I have a i5 4590.  the CPU usage is bouncing between 10 and 12%

Is the lack of a Linux version due to a technical issue with your ability to pack the code or something to obfuscate? Logically the only reason the Linux version has been pulled is that was the version used to determine you copied some of mrb's code. Glad it was worked out between the two of you, but the reluctance to support it now moving forward is a bit confusing if all is well.

Hi All,

The Zcash GPU AMD Miner is awesome!  It's rocking my AMD Nitro Radeon Rx 480 @ about 45 h/s (other miners are half of that with this card).  Question for you is, I saw that some other miners do both GPU and CPU at the same time, like the one for nicehash (neqminer).  Do you have any plans to add so we can squeeze a few more hashes out at the same time with CPU and GPU?  I tried to use the over clock -cclock in the config and fried my windows, would not boot anymore.  I do not have any idea what I am doing so I had that coming.  I just put in -cclock 1500.  Also, is there any recommendations for this card that I can get a few more hashes from GPU mining without blowing it up again Smiley

I am on:

Windows 7 Ultimate with the Radeon rx 480 8GB.
24 GB Memory
i5 Intel 2310 2.90 GHZ 4 processors

Is there anything I can do to tweak this to squeeze a few more hashes out of it.
