over night results using -i 2

best rig  at 119H/s is the asus z170a using an i5 6500t

worst rig at 108H/s is the biostar z170a using an i3 6300t

the asrock h81 is at 113 H/s using an intel i5 4570s

the asrockz170 extreme 3 is at 115 H/s using an i7 6700t


What does it all mean? I suspect to run at -i 2  you need an i5  .

I also have virtual memory set at 32000-64000 on all rigs.


 Very odd results given that the i7 6700t is near-identical clocks to the i5-6500t and has a LOT bigger on-chip cache, so should be punching out it's processing faster.

 Probably other factors at work too - have you considered swapping parts around in testing?

Mine for a Bit
I'm wondering why you are all rushing to mine ZCash. It find it less profitable than Ethereum. Moreover Flypool is abosultely not giving me what I should get.
I am at Nicehash mining ZEC for BTC.
~25% lower powerdraw than ETH

I am doing more profits from ZEC on a daily basis for sure.

How the hell is it possible ? Both Whattomine and NiceHash calculator give me Ethereum a lot more profitable. There would even be a 3$ gap for me between them. That might be related to my configuration, but in my case Ethereum is a lot more profitable. I'd go for NiceHash given the pain it would save me, but considering that it doesn't work on my Nvidia rig, I had to ignore that option.

This may be an interesting site to evaluate the most profitable coin based upon equipment and capabilities:

http://whattomine.com


That's what I use. However, most the profits are not correct. All the ccminer-based coins (Vertcoin, Feathercoin...) are very accurate, but in case of Ethereum, that's not wonderful. And I don't even talk about ZCash Cheesy ! I've passed to Ethermine to see if that pool is reliable or not and I'll advise about where to settle.

Here is the ETH that I use along with Ethpool.org.  This combo have been very good for me.  I do not dual, I just use the single.

Download Claymore's Dual Miner

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/0B69wv2iqszefdFZUV2toUG5HdlU

I'm far from being new you know Cheesy ! I already have Claymore's miner, that's a must-have. I was just asking if someone knows why my real earnings are a lot inferior to what has been predicted.

Sorry about that!  Cheesy  ZEC is going to zero very quickly and with the information that they have been talking about the introduction of ZEC on The World Crypto Network - The Bitcoin Group https://youtu.be/BSynwksRDjw   I do not see much longevity to ZEC...pump -n- dump.

From our perspective, the worst that can happen is that I loose a days wages, based upon my ability to convert quickly.

So it means that ETH is more profitable for your setup than ZEC

For mine - ZEC is way better than ETH, this is why I'm mining ZEC

I run -i 2 on all my 480 rigs + my 280x for fun card. On the 470s i run -i 0
All rigs use a Celeron G1820


What is the gain with -i 0 and -i 2 for RX 480?
I have not checked with v5 actually.
I hardly remember how much it was on v4 but on my rigs it was a difference worth doing.

4-8GB Ram + 16GB virtual memory set on all rigs.
I have no issues with slow gpus. Maybe the trouble start with really big virtual memory settings ?


1 x 280x
6 x 470 4GB
13 x 480 8GB

The 280x card pushes over 100 on stock bios/settings, crazy bang for the buck Smiley
It got some random crap fans ziptied to it because the originals died during DRK mining years ago.

Here is the updated RIG.  There was a 5 degree reduction with lid installed.  

Ave Watt on MSI Afterburner = 65W
Watts at the wall = 768W
Amps at the wall = 6.46A
Ave Temp on MSI Afterburner = 50C
ZEC Mining Ave = 700 SOLs (Claymore's v5.0)

Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner.
=========================

Latest version v5.0:

- improved speed by about 30-50% (depends on card model). About 145H/s on stock 390X.
- improved support for Catalyst 16.x and 4xx cards.
- reduced CPU usage.

GET IT WHILE IT IS HOT

Hey Aries... what kind of bump did you get on your MSI 470 rig using v5.0?  over 100 H/s now I would assume?

Could you also tell me what effect v5 had (if any) power draw and GPU temps?  I am managing my rig remotely so i need to be careful with changes as I only have someone checking it for crashes twice a day and don't want to risk long down-times or really even get it running too hot while I am away.  With V4 my GPUs were running about 59-60 degrees with minimal fan usage.

Thanks for any results you can share!

With the v5.0 -i 0 I was getting about 660Sols


Wow! that is insane!  Almost 2x hash rate on same power draw!  I was hoping that this was gonna happen since it seemed like Claymore was concentrating more on the 390/290's first.  Now... if the price of ZEC would just come back a bit lol.  Thanks for the info... well worth the slight risk of managing the upgrade remotely.

I will try today with -i 1 and -i 2 on my i5 and i7 rigs

Thank you, Phil!

I have 6X R9 390 or H81 with Celeron 1840. The miners runs faster with -i =2 than -i=1 or 0. CPU usage is small.

@philipma1957 About the rx 480 cards which one do you use the 4GB or the 8GB?
Thanks

Well any deal I find.  So if I find a cheap 4gb good if I find a cheap 8 gb good.

Mostly now I buy cheap rx 470 4gb.

I get some as low as 170 this,is,a cheap price.

I also found a rx 460 I may get.

Has anyone done rx460s with claymores zcash?

How much Hash do you get with 4GB & 8GB? I mean is there a big difference

I have a unused IBM DPS 2000w server supply (from BTC mining).
How you guys would you use it to power a GPU mining RIG ?
