Wow... that appears to be wrong now too, not sure how, but I pasted that into the 8.1 version instead of the 9.4...

This is what I have working in the 9.4 currently:


...and the Sia ir running at double the hashrate?!

Hello,

Mining freshman here, first of all thank you Tytanick. Your software is phenomenal.

Second, I am having some trouble. Here is my setup. I have four rigs. All identical, all with the same problem.

MSI z170a pro gaming carbon
Intel Pentium Processor
Kingston 4gb Ram
1000 Corsair PSU
6 Sapphire Nitro RX480 4gb (Mixture of Elpida, Hynix and Samsung)
6 of Mintcells Blue Powered USB Risers.
Modified 4U server case

When I plug in 5 GPUs they work great on both windows and simplemining. However when I plug in the 6th GPU a random GPU will give a "WATCHDOG: GPU # hangs in OpenCL call, exit." And restart the rig. Sometimes the rig will last 60-72 hours and sometimes barely make it 30 seconds before rebooting. (-r 1 is set up)

To be clear. They are bone stock. No overclocking. Any 5 of the 6 will work perfectly as 5.

Here is what I have tried but to no avail.

Replaced the GPU. (Then a different one stopped working, did this with four working GPUs.)
Replaced the motherboard
Swapped out one, then two, then ALL the risers.
Changed the setup from a 1000w PSU to a Corsair 1200W PSU
Changed the processor from Pentium to i3
Updated to the latest Z170a bios from MSI
Downgraded from the latest bios to an earlier Z170a bios
Test -gesr 2 from Claymore and -eser.
Gave the errant GPUs a little higher power stage.
Lowered the Powerstage to ease off the PSU.

I assume that I am looking at the problem in the face but I'm too ignorant to notice it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

You are right, a port # is required (9980). Not sure why it worked for me earlier. Here is what I am using now:

Yes, and an external server to remote manage / reboot the machine. It is a nice system when it works.

What's the benefit of SimpleMining over installing Xubuntu, Ethereum, and Claymore individually? Looks like there were some major issues with Simpleminer judging by the thread comments today. Is Simplemining just all that stuff on one image already?

I think so. Just try it... you will know if it works or not in about 20 seconds

You can set that in the BIOS. Search for something like restore on AC loss and set it to always on or last state.

You will lose many customers with a new fee system.
In this case I will prefer to buy ethOS.

Do you offer discounts for more rigs? Will you offer invoice for VAT registered commercial customers?

Is it advisable to run smOS from a usb on a long term? Any issues with that config?

I'm new in the mining and want to know the main difference between Mining OS SimpleMining and Windows 10 64-bit?

Currently with Windows 10 I'm having issues installing 6 GPUs, 4x XFS RX 470, 1x RX 470 MSI and one Saphire RX 570, is it easier to install the drivers or I will get in much more trouble than in windows.

Also want to know is there any difference in the hash rate or it will be the same as like in Windows.


A friend of mine is getting 177MH/s with 6x RX Nitro Sapphire 480 8GB which means in average is 29.5 MH/s per GPU.

Well, I tried it too. At first it complained about not having port specified for siamining, so I added :7777, then tried :9980 and finally :3333
None of those options worked.
Now when this is a paid product, I'd expect a better support ...

Hello,

i have some RX480 Nitro Sapphire 8 GB cards and have the bios moded with copy the 1500 stripes to the higher one.

What is the best setting in smOS CoreClock, Memory Clock and Powerstage?

i get at the moment 27mhs per card

Best regards
Willi

Is there any known limit on the number of supported GPUs?

in my rig i have 4x7990 ... as soon as i activate the onboard gpu for checking the miner on a monitor, the last gpu core won't get recognized properly and mining isn't working at all - system keeps rebooting.

aticonfig also can't get any data of that last core if onboard gpu is activated.

i have the Asrock FM2A58+ BTC (http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A58+%20BTC/) with 1 x PCIe 3.0 x16, 1 x PCIe 2.0 x16, 3 x PCIe 2.0 so technically there should be space for 5 cards (with each having 2 cores?!) ...



Another thingie: ... i played arround with different coins and i realized that a 7990 only gets something like 27MHs on ETH while it gets 45MHs on EXP. Shouldn't it be the same on both the coins since its the same algo?


And last question:
Would it be possible to implement one of thow eth-proxy clients optionally to point claymore to the local proxy which is pointing to the pool? As i understood, it should give additional hashrate and less delays in network.
Suprnova seems to suggest that one: https://github.com/ocminer/eth-proxy ... or is this old crap and dont have a sense anymore? I only remember of it from the beginning of ETH mining some years ago.

Thank you for trying to help.

The advices seems to be the usual ones. Not specially for 570s ?

In my particular case, I think the mobo is already properly set. (each MB is different)
It was working perfect with 6x RX470s, then I took the mobo from the 470's rig to build a new one with RX570s instead, and new risers.
Then the problem appeared.

Is it something special to do with rx570s ?
is SMos fully compatible wit rx5xx series ?

Please not that all my GPUs are recognised. It's just that they fail quickly (GPU Hang and show zero hashrate after few minutes).
I finally will add this is happening with any amount of GPUs connected. (I said previously 3x GPU was fine but not, it fails too).

Hope I can find some ideas here. Thx

Fee payment is working fine now.

Thanks heaps for providing such a great OS for free up until now.

I think I might try and get my hosted rigs changed over to this from ETHOS.

I tried the command you posted and it is not working unfortunately none of the miners!

UPDATE:
Everybody received 0,5$ as free trial.
If you like my simplemining.net and you are using it, please deposit some $.
The fee is 2$ per rig per month.

Rig grouping must be in this new month so within 30 days i guess.

I would also like to be changing my pool, I would like to go to ethermine, can you tell me if it is only to change "eth-eu.dwarfpool.com" to "us1.ethermine.org:4444" will it work?

I can also confirm sent payment didn't go thru went thru my account just fine.
Than the payment system timed out and 3 hours later it said you will get refund claim your refund and charged me funds back for refunding.

I will wait till tomorrow to deposit in my account again.

Try this... it works for me:


...you might try to increase the -dcri value to get the max Sia speed without reducing your Ether mining speed.
