Topic: EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner - page 68. (Read 2164327 times)

use --log 1 or -- log 2 parameter in your startup line. It will create log in directory of miner.


--log               Create file miner.log in directory of miner. Allowed values 1 and 2. 1 only errors, 2 will repeat console output.

This is not true. Performance depends on memory clock and core clock in equilihash.

why oc of memory?
Minimizing zcash memory speed does not matter, you can even lower it to negative.

My EWBF 0.3.4b closes for some reason after day or two, I don't know why cause I can't see the reason because it closes. Rig is running all the time (no restarts), any idea why is this happening?
I have Win10 and GTX 1070 on it.

Is there an option to see the error if it turns up?

Thanks

What scares me is that you might be right.
I think one of the slots was bad from day 1. I only plugged 5 GPUs in that MSI Z170A Pro Carbon, but originally one of the slots kept failing. By plugging that GPU into another slot the problem disappeared.

Looks like the problem caught up now. That mobo might just be flaky... and getting flakier.

Swap the cards around and test the PCI-Express slot or it could be failure of motherboard chipset.

You are more likely to have PCI-E slot failures or or memory slot or chipset failures on motherboards.

Trying to pick you guys' brains a little bit...
Got a 5x 1080 rig. Just mining ZenCash now since this morning. For some reason, four of them are hashing at approx 540 sol/s but the fifth card is doing 50 less. And no, it's not the one I'm using as Teamviewer display (that one does go down in speed when I connect, but goes right back up afterwards).

Current settings as follows for all cards:
core: +110
mem: +350
80% powerlimit

All cards are the same (EVGA GTX 1080 Superclocked). Temps between 62 and 66C.

Any ideas? Failing card (they're all only 3 months old)?

 Only NVidia supports CUDA.

 Intel is - oddball, though they support OpenCL so a non-brand-specific miner that runs under OpenCL should work - if you can find one.

 Expect REALLY BAD performance though, Intel iGPUs are a joke compared to AMD and AMD iGPUs don't mine worth beans.

 For comparison, on the Distributed.Net project (which DOES work on both AMD and Intel iGPUS), the iGPU on the A10-7890k (or 7860K, same iGPU) manages 600 Megakeys/sec.
 Intel G4600 (which has the SAME iGPU as the i7-7700k running at the SAME clock, both being Kaby Lake generation) manages 150 MegaKeys/sec *IF AND ONLY IF* you aren't doing anything else on the CPU, more commonly 90 if you ARE doing anything else on the CPU.

 That same AMD A10-7890K/7860K iGPU pulls a WHOPPING .... 11 sol/sec with Claymore 12.4 mining ZEC.



 My not-well-optimised Aorus GTX 1080ti pulls 640-650 sol/s at 160ish watts (I can't get it to clock above 1600ish Mhz boost core for some reason in the system I just built it up into, I am starting to suspect a driver issue as the card USED to hit closer to 2000 most of the time with an older driver version - but I need the newer drivers for my gaming in that machine so I'm kinda stuck).

 (edit - now up to around 750 and boosting to 1850ish but soaking 250ish watts after a reboot, I think the "p0 state" software Nicehash uses was messing up the drivers and boost mode somehow).

funniest guy around this forum

latest version ??

better performance with latest version fot 1070gtx

palit super jetstream

The stats increase gradually over a 24 hr. period.

He answered:

I have set the solver control to 0, and the power to 70 and it works.
And 16GB virtual memory

The speed is slow to limit it to 70, but at least it works

Thank you very much for that post. I will do the same today or tomorrow. What are your power settings on those air-cooled 1080 TIs? What is the wattage of your PSU?

I have noticed your setup including the server room in another thread already, great to see people who are willing to share and think in bigger pictures, including solar power. Keep up the good work!

page 170 comment #3392

is there a way to add a command to the bat file that if your cards crash to reset the program?

What 1080 Ti do you have ?

My normal GTX 1080 MSI look good for this, I guess, right?

here some new tweaks ... i set tdp on all devices somethink between 50 and 70:



nearly 200watt off seems to be a good result  
teaking it with this webinterface is much more easy.

rx480 is now running at 50% tdp also. hashrate even the same 266sol

thanks and brgds
