How many GPU's for that 213mh/s ?

8 gpu

Hi guys,

i do a little "how to" if some people want to mine SIGT / skunk algo.

First of all i use Palginmodccminer ( the SP_MOD is faster but u have to pay )

FIRST STEP GET THE CLIENT

### Be in home dir ###
Quote
cd /home/m1/
### Create a directory for your new miner ###
Quote
mkdir PMccminer
### Go in new dir ###
Quote
cd PMccminer/
### Download miner client ###
Quote
### Extract the file ###
Quote
tar -zxvf palginmod_1.1_Ubuntu.tar.gz
### Delete start.sh ###
Quote
rm start.sh
### Back to home dir ###
Quote
cd /home/m1/

SECOND STEP EDIT BASH

### Open 1bash
Quote
nano 1bash
### Add SIGT  and  SIGT_BTC to the coin selection

Quote
# CHOOSE COIN FROM:
# DMD  GRS  ZPOOL_LYRA2V2  ZPOOL_BLAKE2S
# ZEC   ZCOIN  HUSH   ZEN  ZCL   SIGT  SIGT_BTC
# NICE_ETHASH  ETH    MUSIC  ETC  EXP  DCR  PASC
# MONA  VTC    DGB    SIA  FTC  LBC
# DUAL_ETC_DCR    DUAL_ETC_PASC    DUAL_ETC_LBC    DUAL_ETC_SC
# DUAL_EXP_DCR    DUAL_EXP_PASC    DUAL_EXP_LBC    DUAL_EXP_SC
# DUAL_ETH_DCR    DUAL_ETH_PASC    DUAL_ETH_LBC    DUAL_ETH_SC
# DUAL_MUSIC_DCR  DUAL_MUSIC_PASC  DUAL_MUSIC_LBC  DUAL_MUSIC_SC

### Add SIGT and SIGT_BTC specs ( u have to modify SIGT_WORKER and SIGT_ADDRESS by your seting )

Quote
SIGT_WORKER="SIGT"
SIGT_ADDRESS="Bibi187"
SIGT_POOL="stratum+tcp://sigt.suprnova.cc:7106"
 
###SIGT_BTC use BTC adresses###
SIGT_BTC_POOL="stratum+tcp://skunk.mine.zpool.ca:8433"

### If u use SIGT_BTC, be sure to get correct ( your BTC adress )

Quote
BTC_ADDRESS="3JJaMUVBJp55BNsGvYynaJhDXRyUf95hyG"

### Add miner specs to the end of ur file between the two last "fi"   ( ensure ur worker have x password on suprnova pool, or modify the "-p x" by "-p YourPassword" in the SIGT section )
Quote
if [ $COIN == "SIGT_BTC" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/PMccminer/ccminer'
ADDR="$BTC_ADDRESS"
 
screen -dmS miner $HCD -a skunk -o $SIGT_BTC_POOL -u $ADDR -p c=SIGT
 
if [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
then
screen -r miner
fi
 
BITCOIN="theGROUND"
 
while [ $BITCOIN == "theGROUND" ]
do
sleep 60
done
fi
 
if [ $COIN == "SIGT" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/PMccminer/ccminer'
ADDR="$SIGT_ADDRESS.$SIGT_WORKER"
 
screen -dmS miner $HCD -a skunk -o $SIGT_POOL -u $ADDR -p x
 
if [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
then
screen -r miner
fi
 
BITCOIN="theGROUND"
 
while [ $BITCOIN == "theGROUND" ]
do
sleep 60
done
fi


THIRD STEP OC SETTING ( ASUS 1070 GTX 8OG / prolly ok for most 1070 gtx )

First of all this algo, gona get a lot of heat from your card, he use core, not memory.

CoreClock : 120
MemClock : -2000
PowerLimit at default : 150W
Temp Target 70°
Fan between 95% - 75%  ( I use watchdog )

This fine tunning work like a charm 213mh/s on suprnova, 211mh/s on zpool

U have to disable
Quote
IAmNotAJeep_and_Maxximus007_WATCHDOG="NO"

Or your RIG gona get restart for nothing, i dont modify IAmNotAJeep_and_Maxximus007_WATCHDOG, if i do prolly i can get him work with this setup but more simple to stop him for this coin Wink


Et voila Wink


I've tried with my 1060 6G rig, it failed saying can't find a screen for miner, when i tried 'screen -r miner' on quake terminal, still no luck.

Any Idea why?

Do you use last nvOC version with all update from OP ?
If yes, put all your OC setting to 0, and try again.
In the 1bash file, make sure u do
Quote
LOCALorREMOTE="LOCAL"       # LOCAL  or  REMOTE
If u have a screen attached, and try again.


If u are on ssh with no screen attached do
Quote
screen -ls
### To attach the screen ###
Quote
screen -x miner

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, my rig is up to date with nvOC v 18 with all files.

I was dual mining which was working perfectly well, have stopped it and tried to mine SIGT using your instructions but didn't work. I use local and other coins working as normal.

Anyway will try with 0 of settings and see again, thanks alot for those instructions though.

I've managed to make it work with my RIG, it seems working fine (issue was with path as mentioned in one of the replies).

Getting around 125 MH with my 8x 1060 6GB ASUS (oc:0,mc:0,pl:80), please share you OC settings if you think I'm getting low hashrate.

Thanks.

I dont know about 1060, but on skunk algo, u dont care about mc so put them in lower value, max as u can for 1070 is -2000.
Up your powerlimit to the default powerlimit and Clockmemory step by step start at 100, wait 24h and increment by 10 after every 24hours before crash.
When crash occur reduce to the previous step, wait again more 24h if stable lower your powerlimit to get a better ratio watt / hashrate.

So for my ASUS 1070 GTX 8OG
MemClock : -2000
CoreClock : 130 ( the 24hours step, i go push to 130 just now )
PowerLimit : 150W per gpu
TempLimit : 70c
Fan range : 95-75 ( autotemp ON )  

As SIGT is running good for 2500 blocks after reward get halved, i suggest you to get a stable setting cause watchdog is disable, so if your RIG crash, he dont gona reboot him self Wink
