where to see the result of zcash mining? i need info to compare each gpu . please
how much the sols for :
980, 980ti, 1070, 1080, 1080ti ?

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? I'm trying to use EWBF's Zec Miner 0.3.3b to mine zcash, but I'm getting this error when I run the miner.exe. Using the miningpoolhub batch file, this is what I have in it:

miner --server us-east.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com --user fakeuser.fakeworker --pass x --port 20570

I've checked to make sure all of the info is correct (I'm using my real username and worker), but still I'm getting this error:

"ERROR: Enter all the necessary data, like server, port, user and password."
Hoping someone can point me to what I'm doing wrong. Thanks!

I`ve a problem, I`m mining on mph using multi algo switch, but whenever the pool changes from ZEC to another algo EWBF's just doesnt exit the program...

this is my BAT:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@echo off
SETLOCAL EnableExtensions
SET USER=luiggybit.Nvidia
SET PASS=x
SET A=ethminer.exe
SET B=zminer.exe
SET C=ccminercryptonight.exe
SET D=ccminerAlexis78.exe
SET E=ccminerTanguy.exe

SET POOL=hub.miningpoolhub.com

:start
ECHO - EquiHash - ETHash - groestl - myr-gr - skein - neoscrypt - cryptonight

%A% --farm-retries 1 -G -S us-east.ethash-%POOL%:12020 -O %USER%:%PASS% -FS exit
%B% --eexit 3 --server us-east.equihash-%POOL% --port 12023 --fee 0 --user %USER% --pass %PASS%
%C% -r 0 --bsleep=0 --bfactor=0 --launch=32x18 --url=stratum+tcp://asia.cryptonight-%POOL%:12024 --userpass=%USER%:%PASS%
%D% -r 0 -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://%POOL%:12012 -u %USER% -p %PASS% -i 15
%E% -r 0 -a groestl -o stratum+tcp://%POOL%:12004 -u %USER% -p %PASS%
%D% -r 0 -a lyra2v2 -o stratum+tcp://%POOL%:12018 -u %USER% -p %PASS%
%D% -r 0 -a myr-gr -o stratum+tcp://%POOL%:12005 -u %USER% -p %PASS%
%D% -r 0 -a skein -o stratum+tcp://%POOL%:12016 -u %USER% -p %PASS%
REM %D% -r 0 -a blake2s -o stratum+tcp://%POOL%:12019 -u %USER% -p %PASS%

GOTO start
----------------------------------------------------

It works fine with the other mining software, just EWBF seems does not exit properly...  any help?

Prologas, are you actually using those settings?
PL 30? No card can go that low.
Use nvidia-smi -i 0 --query-gpu=power.min_limit,power.max_limit --format=csv  to check lowest PL of your gpu.
And why set your fan speed at 50 if you are having high temp problems?
Also:
--fee 50? I am humbled by your generosity towards EWBF Smiley

Maybe you can offer better settings for 1080ti to improve Sol/W?

Hehe, your nickname in Lithuania means copy Smiley I have some cheap 1060, so they are burnin at 72C and more. At Windows afterburner you can set temp limit, so it activate slowdown mode and reduce sol/s to decrease Temperature. At Linux here, I can't see this option :? I really need this. Maybe it hardcoded at linux?

By the way, I finished writing systemd service implementation. If anyone interested I could share of it. systemctl start/stop/restart miner

Hehe, kopija means copy in croatian too Smiley I also learned that in portugese it means something that is hanging between your legs Sad
I think you do not need to worry until your gpu temp reaches 90celsius.
How does that systemd thingie of yours work?


90C? I don't think so Smiley About systemd. I actually wrote a systemd unit file and linked to bash script. Then I can make control it from systemctl start/stop/enable features. Plus it got logging too.

I think the bold part refers to thermal throttling and your cards are far from achieving it.
Unless of course EWBF shuts down your miner because of default 75 celsius setting Smiley

My bad wasn't paying enough attention.  If you set the right number of coolbits you should be able to go to the nvidia app in linux and modify this value.  I would try 28, then 32.

Pics or it did not happen.
Only fan speed can be set in nvidia-settings on my end.

Try this. I am using it:
sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=28 --allow-empty-initial-configuration

then reboot.

you can adjust memory, core, fans.

I know claymore has an option that if a gpu or the software goes into an error that you can create a .bat file to close the software and initiate a reboot of the O/S. Is there something similar in EWBF. I see there is an --eexit option but can you put in a command with --eexit to run a .bat file when this is triggered?
