From what I understand the odd versions are like betas and the even numbers are the supported releases. I would go with the 18.04 LTS (Long Term Support) version.
thank you ! I didn't know that, and now I was able to get everything up and running with Ubuntu
https://imgur.com/DC2Fh6xOn the r606, by checking the heat, I gradually increased the vcore voltage up to the 460mV max and I am getting an average of 750gh/s, the newpacs are averaging about 10gh/s each
what do you guys think ? do you see any mistakes ? is there room for improvement or should I just let it be ?
should I dial down the r606 vcore voltages ? honestly I didn't get much of a difference by jumping up from 430mV to 460mV.
also I connected to the pool with the stratum+tcp protocol which I seem to understand is a desirable option as it helps keep track of your shares without counting only on your connection
about the pools I added a second pool server to cgminer, 'failover' should kick in in case the first pool drops, is this a good idea or is it best to just connect to one ? btw I am using de.ckpool.org:3333 and de.ckpool.org:443
Thank you !
