Topic: Problems with Win 7 / R9 270x - ETH (Read 394 times)
you cant mine ETH with 2GB card now, you need at least 3GB card. Try mine any other altcoin like Zcash, it seems still profitable for R9 270x's
Cant mine ETH with that card. Mine ZEC instead.
I am having problems setting up my trial rig. Here is my setup....
EVGA Z87-FTW MOBO
8GB RAM
EVGA 750 Gold PSU
R9 270X cards - currently using 2...but have 9 total if I ever get this setup to work...
So, here is my situation, I have been attempting to use GETH having nothing but issues with the blockchain. I have tried for a week to download the blockchain using different commands ie --fast, --rpc ..... every time I get five or so minutes in to it, my computer reboots. It seems to be a GETH only issue. I have deleted the block chain files and tried starting fresh etc.... I then downloaded Ethereum Wallet, to attempt to avoid issues and no avail. I have updated drivers, downgraded drivers, tried Debian Squeeze distro's (epic fail due to Ethernet issues) and the best I have gotten to is a claymore setup using
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
EthDcrMiner64.exe -lidag 0 -epool us1.ethpool.org:3333 -ewal 0x18ec1513078aa6b52b1409a05cf6b4f4820bebea -epsw x -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -dwal Redhex.my -dpsw x
with this I get the:
GPU0/GPU1 - not enough GPU memory to place DAG
OpenCL error -61 cannot allocate big buffer for DAG
OpenCL error -38 cannot write buffer for DAG
Am I just having issues with the block chain or is it a 2GB GPU issue that cannot be resolved?
Thanks in advance for any help.......About to pull my hair out at this point...
