Got a problem with this miner.
I'm mining for some time (4x GTX1070 and 2x R9 280x). And after some time the miner "loses" one GTX 1070.
How can I fix this?

It's only finding 5 cards then instead of 6.

Only reboot helps then.

Regards

Do not OC!
What is in the logs?

Hy all!

I am pretty new in mining so i have one question if anyone can help me I would be really happy Smiley

So i have one question :

Can i command somehow to my claymore's miner that it need to restart when temperature of all GPU falls in idk 50°C ?

Is there any command where i can write this down and if is Can someone please explain me how and where to write it.


Thanks a lot for any help!

Good: You have invested quite some time into writing this beautiful post
Bad: You should have invested into reading (page 1) instead

My 24hr averages are usually very close to reported hashrate.

Even on a VEGA 64 that is OC to 41MH?  

Any other GPU I've used in the past the 24 avg lines up with reported ( within ~1MH ).  

Vega 64 is stuck at 32 MH for 24 hour average for me.  It lends credence to the stories about how the reported hashrate is incorrect for the VEGA 64.

My theory?  Some throttling is happening due to some setting.  In Claymore spam the statistics button 's' (I mean really spam, try to get a few reports a second).  I see it is sometimes 41 MH then sometimes I see as low as 23 MH.   I think the card is throttling for a quarter second every second or so.

Anyway, something weird is definitely going on.  I'm holding my breath for someone to post legit mining results.  Lets see your ethermine page, average and all of a OC Vega 64 running 41MH and actually getting close to that in 24hr avg.  Again, I can get my card to 41 MHs reported no problem, still comes out as 32MH for 24 hours avg.



I'm using two Vega Frontier Edition air cooled cards, which are basically Vega 64's with 16gb of vram.

You will see a worker labled c_vega_fe, this is both of my cards, one at 40Mh/s and the other at 42Mh/s.  You will also see that they were offline for a bit while I was playing, which may or may not account for the hashrate difference 81.6 reported, 78 actual.

my rig has 6 rx 580 8G
Currently dual mining ETH + DCR
I can OC ETH to 170 but the GPU crashes sometimes
so it is running stable around 164mh/s
But the total watt to run dual is around 1120W ... I am afraid it may run over 1200 ( which is my PSU's capability ) ...
Could someone share their  total Watt when dual mining :d

1200W PSU is capable to draw 5-8% more from the wall up to 1300W comfortably.
This is what 92-95% efficiency means.

I dont understand the bios modding. What am I to be changing on my Polaris cards I am only get roughly 20mh/s out of them on ETH.

When i load the bios following instructions, they say change timing, the timings are all kinds of crazy hex numbers.

I also get an error about my bois being too small



You cannot use GPU-Z to save the BIOS as it only saves half of modern bioses. You must use ati flash to save the bios. You are copying the memory straps from either 1500 (hynix, micron and elpida) or 1750 (samsung) and pasting it to all memory straps higher than it, such as 1650, 1700, etc up to 2000 or higher. This makes the memory run with tighter memory settings so hashes more. But it can also make the card unstable and/or crash.

How do I tell memory brand... also I am using ATI flash to pull them. They appear to already read as 2000 as thier default memory speed?
When you start GPU-Z, it reports the memory brand. Also use the following article for BIOS flashing as it tells you the correct Polaris BIOS editor version to use in order to get rid of the craxy hex numbers you're seeing:
http://1stminingrig.com/sapphire-nitro-rx-470-8gb-oc-bios-flash-mod-tutorial-hynix-samsung/

Okay all m y cards are hynix so I can OC them a bit? My screen for timing looks nothing like his.



You are using outdated version of PBE. Find a good step by step instruction with the links to the 1.4.1 version

Can't undervolt/overclock with AMD Blockchain driver even with v10.0 Sad I know we can do that with Wattman, but I don't want. And with Afterburner we can't undervolt memory and it's limited.
Is it planned in next update ? Thanks Smiley

You problem is elsewhere. I an undervolt/overclock with AMD Blockchain driver even with v10.0

It is obvious that you do not know what to do.
Just google and find a good step by step instruction and follow.
That is it. You are not the first one nor the last one.

Is there an other possibity for fixing the DAG epoch issues for Ethereum mining than the aug 23 blockchain driver?
I ask this because in my side, i have not found any way to run the blockchain driver with stability on my rig 8 gpu's under Windows 10, therefore i see the drop hashrate and i can do nothing to solve this issue at this day.

Thanks in advance for help.

Aug 11 driver Wink
Your problems are elsewhere with the rig.
If you want to have a stable system you have to back to basics, find a good instruction online and do changes step by step carefully.
I have 3 rigs with W10 and they all work fine with Aug 11 driver.

Just upgraded from 9.8.... Zero difference...
9.7 to 9.8 was also zero difference.
I am running 6x MSI RX 580 Gaming 8GB, and would love to know how I can increase the hashing  Huh



Thanks much!

I've been using Claymore on an unstable system - trying to narrow down the errors to stabilize the system but it is still crashing.  It has never mined for more than a day or so without crashing.

Now the console output gives zero indication of error, it just crashes or reboots after several hours or nearly immediately.

Does it crash without mining activity? Did you try 1 card? Did  you try default settings for everything?

Any one else having problem with Win10 freezing?
I really like getting 117mhs again with my 4 cards but if this driver is just going to give headache after headache Im rolling back to Win7 and keeping my 105mhs.
I lowered mem from 2150 to 2100 and it ran a bit longer (previously 10 minutes before crashed windows) but its still crashing the system. Will new miner address issues with Win7 and blockchain drivers? Can anyone give advice for Win10 crashing with new drivers?

I have 2 rigs with RX580: W10+Aug11 Blockchain drivers=have no issues - works flawlessly for weeks.
I do OC sanely though. Try to run it with default settings.

Hi TechPark, how many GPU's you have on each rig, miner Claymore v9.8 and setting? what motherboard?


each card hashes at 29.5-29.7 MHs

1: 6x RX580 - 9.8 - MB - ASRock B250 Gaming K4 Motherboard
2: 2x RX580 - 9.8 - MB - ASRock B250 Gaming K4 Motherboard

Same setting on both rigs:

-epool asia1.ethpool.org:3333
-ewal YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.ZZZZZZ
-epsw x
-dbg 1
-r 1
-mport XXXX

AB:
-96
1300
2075
70



So I ended up getting rid of Windows 10. Restored my PC to Win7 and installed the robinhood driver; ONLY the robinhood drivers, no crimson or anything with amd radeon's website. Im back up to 117mh/s on 4 rx 480 8gb cards using AB 4.4.0 beta 16, been running just around 24 hours with no issues. Thank you RobinHood! Windows 10 Sucks.

Not the case here.
have never had any issues with Windows 10. Managing 20+ computers and laptops.

I have some questions for anyone who can answer:

  • What is the acceptable amount of GPU memory errors? 0? <10? <100? <1000? etc...
  • How come my GPUs give incorrect shares without having GPU memory errors?
  • My incorrect / submited shares ratio is ~1% (usually a bit less). is this normal?

I know that quoting myself is pretty lame but, anyone?

Ideally you want to have 0 errors.
When you ping continuously pool IP address what is the latency?
Did you select the closest to you pool (geographically)?
Have you tried another pool?
Are you on WiFi or cable?
What is the value in ms for submitted share in claymore?

Hi,

I just need to verify something about the amd beta blockchain driver.
I have a rig 8 GPU RX580 Gaming 8 Go (Hynix), in june i got 242 MH/s.
Actually in august i obtain 233 MH/s, in order to solve this drop MH/s, i installed this beta blockchain driver i got 248 MH/s, but i met issue with GPU clock speed frequency alternatively jumping 1000 to 1300 MHz.
Is somebody here met the same issue and find solution to solve this?

Thank you for help.

Had the same problem with my RX570, also befor kernel update. I flashed only 1 clk level to the RX570, after that they run fine.
With the RX4X0 i had no Problems to set the clk with rocm-smi, they run stabel

I have no issue with official driver, i only meet this issue gpu clock frequency jumping alternatively non stop from 1000 to 1300 MHz with the beta blockchain driver.
I dont see what you mean, you flashed only 1 clk level to solve this issue?


Can you undervolt with the blockchain driver?

Yes, but only with Afterburner version beta 4.4.0.16, i found it on the link below, i tried to undervolt it was ok for consumption, but jumping issue always there.
https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/rtss-6-7-0-beta-1.412822/page-32

I can report that undervolting via Trixx is working, without the jumping issue.

What version of TRIXX?

Is it possible that in the future the memory gddr5x will give a performance boost?
Is it possible to optimize the algorithm? Or a problem in latency and it not fixable?

Yes. I've heard about a mining operation system that uses claymore dual miner and maximizes the performance of the rigs.
Check it out:

I have a question maybe a little off topic but a I a Asus CROSSHAIR V FORMULA-Z motherboard and when I just install the amd drivers my two of my gpus automatically are in crossfire the only way to disable crossfire is to install amd settings does anyone no another way to disable crossfire I looked in bios but didn't see anything

Yes, that's why I'm curious. It'd have been fine if it was 50 Watts increase in power, but jumping from 450 Watts to 600 Watts is really ridiculous, specially for a new bronze Corsair power supply.

I'm going to open up my PSU, GPU's, whole system and suck some dust through the stuff through a light vacuum cleaner. Let's see what happens.

just did the exactly same operation yesterday
cleaned all radiators form my watercooling system
as result my temps dropped about 10 celius, that is a huge drop for me
now it is much better and quiter

Guys, I'm really going to suck the dust through vacuum cleaner and going to apply the thermal paste.

But I'm going to totally open the GPU for the first time, don't have much of idea. Have few questions regarding the thermal paste.

1. Could putting thermal paste damage the GPU in any way? Is there any chance of getting it damaged?
2. Is it safe if I put some excessive thermal paste on the GPU?
3. If there's any factory-applied thermal paste on the GPU, can I remove it using a cotton/tissue and then apply the new thermal paste?

Any answer would be appreciated.

Unfortunately you are not going to be the first man attempting this task.
This thread is for Claymore miner. You are better off copying your questions and pasting it into Google search.
You will see answers right away.
That should have been your first thought and taking into account that you did not do that I would strongly advise you not to touch your cards at all.
