after 3 good days of running 0.2.0b, rock stable, overall 10 rigs 60x 1070gpu, average 2642sols/s - 0.16% rejected shares, no problem @ all with stability.

Good work EWBF. Now if we could get API & enhanced logging, and... maybeeee some more hashing, that would be great  Grin because the only thing i miss now is proper monitoring, even if with the log now it became better, and to be honest the miner is rock stable but you never know, i don't like being in the dark  Grin. Keep up the good work.

Hey guys, just a quick question.


I have an AMD mining rig, with 3/6 gpu slots filled, it's currently running claymore's amd miner.
Now what I wanna ask is, can I put a Nvidia card(1060 3gb) on the 4th slot and run ewbf's miner SIMULTANEOUSLY with Claymore's?
What I mean is running EWBF's miner with parameters to use only the nvidia card, and claymore's with parameters to use the other 3.
If it's not possible, are there any alternative ways to have both nvidia and amd cards mining on the same pc?

Just for info,my cpu and ram are weak(35 dollar intel processor whose name i cant remember and one stick of 4gb 1333 ram)


Thanks in advance.
Yes it's possible Smiley

gtx 950 - ~140s/s

is there any option to select intensity?  Grin

I think no, only overclocking your cards with MSI Afterburner =)

Zotac 1050:
~130 .. 135 s/s : factory defaults, power 60% .. 70%
~145 .. 147 s/s : core +150, memory +700, power 93% .. 95% (about 70W I think)

0.2.0b shows no speedup comparing to 0.1.0b

Hi i'm seeing some crazy mining speeds when using this with my GTX 970 G1 gaming. Normally i mine at around 310sol/s but now i'm seeing 2100, 1600 and 1100 sol/s very frequently in the miner with the new 0.2.0 version. Is it just a bug with the miner or something more Serious?

Perhaps your OC settings are a bit too high. Btw I have the same cards and i was wondering what is the power draw you have with your current settings ?

I managed to fix it by restarting my computer. And my whole system consumes around 300 watts from the wall(idle at 100W), so the card draws a little over 200 watts. But it's not an issue for me, because the winter is very cold here, so i can use my PC as a Space heater. Grin

BUG:

Linux , 6x1070 rig. When I select solvers manual, miner hangs and there are endless retries to restart

But in auto mode works well

Code:
./eqm  --server eu1-zcash.flypool.org --user XXXX.`hostname` --pass x --port 3333 --solver 1

Upd. Bug appears in all solvers 0-3, no messages in dmesg with Nvidia errors,etc. With overclock, or without

Thanks for information.

Upd2. Solver selection works only with 1-4 devices, if there is more then 4 cuda devices (5,6 or more), miner hangs

It's a bug, 2100 sols speed are not supported by the shares sent number.

Also, if price goes 2x you will half the ROI time only if your have enough amount already mined/accumulated.
Hope that makes sense.

Shot in the dark here but any chance anyone with multiple rigs would be willing to share total hash rate from all rigs and could verify zcl per hour mainly with EWBF miner.  I am entertaining the idea of making an investment for 6 rigs with all gtx 1070's and would like confirmation.  By no means did I do it to make money but I have tested a cloud miner for 5 hours that gives 20k hash rates for my zcl pool and it looks like I might be able to at least get 2 or more zcl an hour.  At the rate now of 1$ per zcl I could do 48$ a day, 336$ a week, 1,344$ a month, 16,128$ a year.  zcl profit calculator shows a bit more http://www.coinwarz.com/calculators/zclassic-mining-calculator/?h=18000.00&p=7200.00&pc=0.05&pf=0.00&d=40762.96375668&r=12.50000000&er=0.00121000&btcer=878.08000000&hc=0.00

After the first year it would be pure profit, and I know if it goes down from 1$ I might lose money but there is a chance of gain.  If by the remote chance it makes it to 2$ a zcl I could ROI in half the time and still make close to 16k in 6 or so months.  Could be more depending on where it goes. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No problem with ewbf across 10 rigs of 6x GTX 1070, good stability, no crash @ all, running on average 2640sols/s per rig.
But when doing calculation especially on forks & such, don't count making the same all the time, expect the unexpected, that said, GPU mining except if you have insane electricity cost, will always be profitable even if your profit aren't that good, you WILL ROI, but it could take shorter or longer time depending how you do it.

Hey,

Ok so my 10 rigs are like so

6 x EVGA geforce GTX 1070 FTW Gaming ACX 3.0 - 8 GB (2x8pin power)
....


EVGA 1070 FTW not good choise for mining.
I used same card for 4 monthes and they are nearly fired.
I not agree with you. For me, work phenomenal. It is almost noiseless working on a max OC.

You're going to have a lot of fun when approaching max TDP. Specifically over 100% as their TDP is higher then most cards anyway (220w).

I don't think people realize Equihash is actually one of the less stressful algos, especially when people reduce their TDPs. Moar eth-babies. ~_~
