With this setting i was play game on 650 & mine on 1060 ETH, Neoscript, old Equihash with out problem only now i can't use your miner because it say from start "ERROR: out of memory" with is something wrong

Bolded is your problem, 3GB cards are new required minimum. Your only option is to start miner only on GPU0 (3GB one), look few post above how to do that (in your case use parameter --cuda_devices 0 for GPU0).

gsanjin if you was read i say GP0 is use only for mining aka always in any mining application i enable only GP0 aka in EWBF case i have "--cuda_devices 0" used, so what you was say is not issue, thx anyway

@Overdrive5 you to was not read all what i write 650 GPU = "used for my own necessitate, browsing, working, sometime gaming" is NOT use for mining ... only 1060 read full post what done on previos page aka here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.41579162

Hello @EWBF_

hardware:

motherboard: asrock h110 pro btc (13gpu)
memory : 4gb
cpu Celeron 3930

video cards: 13 gtx EVGA SC2 1080Ti

issue:

gpu 9 gpu 10 gpu 11 and gpu 12 always gets stuck and stops working during gpu detection.
May be build the miner to detect all gpus at the very start?

I started 2 miner

cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 and 7 8 9 10 11 12

and is very very very slow process detected card :-( and crashed EWBF

Please help me ASAP i have +- 3000 card

13x1070 card working normal

SouthWEBA, Which O/S?

And to add more info to this, EWBF requires compute 5 or higher.

Unfortunately, a GTX 650 is only compute 3.0 . Maybe use the 650 to mine something else?

Am i the only one so far that dont have any kind of improvment with 0.3 version speed wise,on 144.5 algo my 1080tis are doing 55-60 sols wich is the same speed that they had on previous version...Am i missing out something or boost is for 1060/70 cards?

Out of curiosity, and to help TAKuCT, what do you have to type into the terminal to load the 2nd instance with the separate 2nd set of cards?

run the 1st with like

Code:

--cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 4

and the 2nd with like

Code:

--cuda_devices 5 6 7 8

So just to be clear here, They would have to type out the miner command in the terminal each time they want to load a second instance for the separate set of cards?

yes, that param allows for the ability to run each card on a different pool, algo, miner, etc (i.e., you could pick card 6 to run alone on PoolY with Account1 and you could pick card 7 to run alone on PoolZ with Account2)
in this instance, you'd run 1/2 of the cards on 1 setup and the other 1/2 on a 2nd setup (even though both setups are the same except card selection)

I have a 1080ti rig that wont run the miner

all CUDA-capable devices are busy or unavailable error.

I have tried down clocking and increasing VM to 40000 still no go.

Any other suggestions...

split them up. Or, launch 2 ewbf miners (or more)

HiveOS does not allow 2 same miners.

If this helps, I can give instructions to run 2 instances of EWBF on ZhashOS.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.40261859

Hive OS does allow 2 instances. Just open another terminal window and run a separate instance. Have been doing all along.

guys.. it says 144_5 takes now 1.99 but 1050 2GB cards are still not working Sad

Your screen was connected to one of the GPUs or to the motherboard (iGPU) ?
Someone else did some testing with 2 GB NVidia GPUs and release 0.3 of EWBF miner ?

@CarlOrff - No screen. Worked smooth 24/7 for 6 months already.

@ewbf - is there a reason why this small difference makes the difference ? (Available: 2012 MB, Required: 2031 MB). I hoped that this is the reason of the change, to make 2GB cards available again.

ZhashOS Release 2.01 is now available.

-Updated to EWBF 0.3 for up to 10% faster hashrate depending on the card.

-Revised the 1streadme1st document to give further guidance

-added FAQ.PDf to instruct on setting up Power/Fan Speed/Overclock settings on GPU. Very Important!

-Made password change function (passwd) operational. All users setting up Remote Desktop are highly recomended to set thier own password for the rig.

-Shrunk the download even further. Now ~475MB.

I use this miner with 3 1070 cards. Everything was ok but today I notice that pool rejects all shares. I use miningpoolhub.

so in the image with red font. u can see difference in power between version .2 and .3 .. .3 is a tad bit better. but in all my pc's with different mobos. different video cards different PSU's, all have now jagged lines. why is this happening.... im not gonna use another miner. but does anyone have a fix to smooth these teeth out?

can we get pics of others power lines on these algo's cause my whole entire lot, just now has this issue. and i know it's either a tweak i need to do, or miner just needs time to mature

? any ideas.

again im working on BTG new fork 144_5

I'm also concerned about erratic power and GPU load with new EWBF on new equihash (BTG 144,5).
I tried both v0.2 and 0.3 and GTX 1070 at different clocks (including stocks) - the same result; as seen on the picture (right panel on the picture):

Older EWBF (0.3.4b) with older equihash is fine with the same cards (left panel on the picture).

EWBF, please comment

Why do you think this is a problem?
This is because the solver is slow and the workload is not homogenous, probably over time this will be slightly improved.

Using SMOS here with latest kernel 4.17

hardware:
motherboard: asrock h110 pro btc (13gpu)
memory : 8gb
cpu g4560
video cards: 12 gtx 1060 palit super jetstream

issue:

gpu gpu 11 and gpu 12 always gets stuck and stops working during gpu detection. Is there a way where you can build the miner to detect all gpus at the very start? similar to how dtsm does it? I noticed getting miners detected one by one i s very slow process and it could be that there is a specific timeout in your program that causes the gpu 11-12 to get stuck in my case.

restarting the miner will cause this issue to be intermittent. sometimes only gpu 12 gets stuck, sometimes both gpu 11 and 12 gets stuck.

please help resolve this. thanks and more power to you ewbf!

Ok, i will check this out.

I have tried to remove all the OC and it works stable for more than 15 hours, so I guess it was too much OC, but I do not think I had much OC.

Equihash 144,5 is demanding much more GPU memory than "old" equihash so mining it taxes more your gpu's and what was stable before, now maybe isn't. Maybe your mem was overclocked a little to high for "new" algo, so I would try with lower mem overclocks on your place.

Now i'm tried 65 PL, 190 core, 400 memory. Thanks.
