-It's definitely worth it until you've some cheap (or free in your case) electricity.

-Each of your Sapphire RX 570 should be generating at least 27 Mh/s. Have you tried using some of the integrated overclocking options of Claymore miner? Which miner are you using right now?

-Monero is right now like 20% more profitable to mine than Ethereum, you should move to it.

-If you want to keep Ethereum, you may first mine Monero and then trade it for Ethereum. That way you'll get like 20% more Ethereum than directly mining it.

All my rx 570 4gb getting 29.5mh each! Just little mod bios easy and quick

i have 10 gpus, 2 of which are 570 8gb sapphire cards, one with micron and the other with hynix. The micron one is doing 32,3mh/s with less than 5 errors/hour and the other one is doing 31,3mh/s with no errors.

Thank you , in my head i regarded overclocking / undervolting and BIOS modding the same thing. What i was afraid of was the bios modding. i didnt realize OC/undervolt could be done without it.

So i could install a software like afterburner on ethos and and see some improvements ?

i am planning to use linux or windows at some point but ethos provided a good start for me as i didnt have to mess around with any settings. i will ditch it though once i feel i have the hang of it.

Yes. BIOS modding is different from overclocking and using a combination of both is what people do to maximize profits. If you want to try overclocking first you can safely do it without risking your warranty.

If you are using ETHos, they have their own built-in tools to control clock settings. Afterburner is usually for Windows operating systems. Switching to windows or linux will be good for you since it gives you the flexibility in mining and optimizing your GPUs. If you plan to ditch it later on anyway, might as well ditch it now.

Okay guys that gives me more clarification now.

So first thing is I am currently getting wrong hashrate and I assure that is because I have not overclocked it. I just bought it and installed on my own. I am running that one with the ethOS operating system and ASUS motherboard.

I will checkout the links provided for the overlocking and will do that immediately. However I will need to study that first as im no expert in that one to be honest.

And another tip for me is switch to monero! Okay what is the requirement for this one? can it be still ran on the ethOS or I have change the whole OS as well. Just new and learning in the mining field, hope you will guys explain this one too.

Thanks for the guidance. Appreciate it!

Your ETHOS days are over. Just dump that software away. Install win10 and download nicehash. As simple as that. Nicehash has an advantage of switching algos automatically when some other algo outperforms what you mine, still, If you don't want to pay fees to nicehash, then just download the latest monero miner and mine yourself on a pool like suprnova. You'll probably make more money by doing so.

You can mine monero on your average ubuntu distro too if that's what you prefer.

Hello,

I too am using ethOs and am currently earning a 0.33 ETH/month. Is it worth switching to monero? If so, why not on Ethos?I could really use the info.i was thinking of switching to something else.

I did some research on switching but it seems that I am out of option due to few facts that I dont want go ahead. For example, my hash rate is around 145 MH/s because I have not overclocked my device and doing so might invalidate the warranty of seller. So im not doing that for sure.

When I searched for switching to Monero then I came to know that I will have to do the dual mining. So on ethOS at least we will have to run ETH mining along with Monero. This will kill the profits anyway. Thats just my own research but we do need conclusions on these!

By not overclocking / undervolting you will be putting your GPUs through too much stress because power consumption and temperatures are higher. People have been overclocking all the time and the stores do not invalidate warranties just because of that (they also have no way to check if you overclock your cards or not as overclocking is software based).

BIOS modding of your GPUs is another thing i recommend to maximize profits but if you are still too worried about overclocking you may be more worried about doing this. But consider it as an option as well. Do your research on AMD GPU BIOS mods.

Lastly, if you want to mine Monero forget about ETHOS, simply install windows and use miners like XMR-STAK or CastXMR.

Same here, i have not overclocked due to fear of invalidating the warranty. I see that almost all experienced miners suggerst overclocking but you need to remember how it was when you were a mining virgin as well! i think i will consider overclocking it when it has at least mined it's worth. Or will it be too late then and not worth it ? If so , is it possible to overclock and undervolt in Ethos without invalidating the warranty or is that not worth it. Like others said i understand that it is not such a big deal and that i am indeed loosing money now due to not overclocking. However how can one overcome that fear of not making any money due to a void warranty. I mean, it is already giving me errors and i fear for the worst if i OC. Thanks and sorry for the newb questions.

Don't be afraid to overclock your GPUs with AB or BIOS mod them. Like Spllouder said you are getting less for paying more. GPUs aren't so fragile as some people try to make them look.

AFAIK Overclocking on MSI afterburner is safe, they are way intended to that purpose with its GPU's reasonable limits, so warranty is safe

unless you would do it thru modding as you are already doing a bypass procedure

Okay. So that hurts a lot in the first place after seeing that I cant use the ETHOS anymore! Unfortunately I am not expert and dont understand how to do it but I will take into consideration that I have to switch as fast as I could so that I can get more money out of it. The seller from whom I bought the mining rig told me that we are not overclocking the devices yet so that we dont loose the warranty of 2 years for that cards. Roll Eyes

But who knows what is there after two years? What if the difficult is way lot and my 145 MH speed is not enough to make most out of it! I think I will do it myself but just before I get started let me know any major precautions that I must take.

If you are getting 24Mhs then your bios is modded but there is a driver issue. Are you using Windows 7 with that Robin Hood driver? I had issues with some GPUs with that.

Some ran at 28Mhs and while others ran at 24Mhs and look at GPUz for some reason it was throttling the core engine.

The stock AMD driver didn't do that however it ran at 17mhs due to no compute mode in windows 7.

Like others said, try windows 10 with the latest drivers and see if you can get the 27-28Mhs.

Set your engine core to 1126 and memory core to 1950 or so. And do a -50 or -100 mV undervolt.

my 2 cents on that:
at the moment if you keep mining ETH or better eth +XVG(eth it seem to be faster with claymore when double mined) then stay in ethos

if you decide to change and mine Cryptonight v7, I think that the best two CNight miner by far (12 % far

) , GatelessGateSharp and srbminer, are under Windows.
So, its a no brain to switch.
But with the current price of XVG, double mining XVG will be probably my choice

I don't have any experience with ethOS, but I've seen people around who do mine Monero on it. However, if you want my personal suggestion, here's what I'll tell you to do:

-Install Windows (preferably 10)
-Install latest Claymore CryptoNote GPU miner
-Use its integrated overclocking options and mine Monero

This is probably what I'd do if I were you.

-It's definitely worth it until you've some cheap (or free in your case) electricity.

-Each of your Sapphire RX 570 should be generating at least 27 Mh/s. Have you tried using some of the integrated overclocking options of Claymore miner? Which miner are you using right now?

-Monero is right now like 20% more profitable to mine than Ethereum, you should move to it.

-If you want to keep Ethereum, you may first mine Monero and then trade it for Ethereum. That way you'll get like 20% more Ethereum than directly mining it.

Quote from: whoismoses on April 18, 2018, 02:05:14 PM

First I'll address your question...

No it is not worth it because you are giving up extra ETH you should be getting.

Each of those cards should be getting 28.5 to 32 MH/s.

My slowest 6 card RX 570 / 580 rig gets 178 MH/s, most get over 180 MH/s. I have a few getting 190+ MH/s.

Have you bios modded the cards? It is not hard.

https://github.com/jaschaknack/PolarisBiosEditor

Have you overclocked them? It is not hard.

https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/overdriventool-tool-for-amd-gpus.416116/

Have you switched the AMD drivers to compute mode?

Now, that said if you are just getting into mining you might not want to be changing things up often. That said there are some cryptonight coins that pay better then ETH at the moment and have high enough volumes on exchanges if you try to sell. For example... XMR, SUMO, IPBC

To mine those you will need a cryptonight miner like xmr-stak or xmrig.

Quote from: mindrust on April 18, 2018, 01:55:40 PM

You are asking the wrong question. The real question is: Why are you still mining eth with those cards? You can make nearly %25 more with monero.

Soon you won't even able to mine 1/10 of what you are mining now. Just move to a GPU friendly coin.
