You have a stable system with good hashrates and zero problems, but the number of shares per card is very low.
10348 shares / 74.75 h = 138.4 shares per hour
138.4 shares per hour / 13 cards = 10.6 shares per hour per card
Normal for 580/570 is 25+ per hour.
You sure you saw those shares per hour for 10000MH difficulty? And not 4500MH or something lower?

Yes, both are correct.

But is not the difficulty the same for everyone at the same pool? Or does it also depend on the power used?

If it is independent then you are in a pool with less difficulty.

Hi people,

Can anyobody help me i am going mad.

I have 5 rig with 6 x RX 580 Special Edition. On all five rigs i have a fresh install of Windows 10 Home 1709. Fisrt my problem started when i could make MSI AB work with all 6 cards (it only recognize 3 cards) so i had to switch to Trixx.

I installed Claymore Dual Miner V 11.3, 11.4 and 11.5 and on all machines same problem. I watch them for few hours and everything is working just fine.No memory errors no nothing everything is perfect. Then suddenly overnight or in the morning some of them shutdown randomly(Blue screen). First i thought it was because of overclocking then when i realize it isnt (beacuse i set them to default), i switched to 11.2 because i read here it is the last stable version.

Now i have new problem. Trixx sudennly bugs out randomly on different rigs at a different time, stop working and all my cards stops working too.

I am desperate in need of help. I tried everything dont know what is the problem.

What i did before this:

Install Windows 10 64 bit Home V1709
Install new latest AMD drivers (compute mode)
tried MSI Ab but cant read 6 cards
uninstall all programs i dont need via CC cleaner and Miningtweaks. bat like Cortana, People, Xbox etc.
Set virtaul memory, power plan all other stuff that i was doing on the previous version of Windows 10. The reason i cant go back to old version of Windows is because it keeps updating.

So my question is what should i do to stop shutdowns?
How can i use MSI with new AMD drivers and Windows 1709?
What Claymore should i use?
Why is Trixx suddenly stop to work?

Hope someone gives me a solution.

Thanks

MSI Afterburner won't work with the latest drivers and more than 3 cards. There is no Group Policy Editor in the Home version of Windows 10, so I don't think you can disable Windows Update driver updates. RX 580's don't need the pixel patcher with a modded Bios, only the RX 470/480/570's.

I'm using v11.5 with the latest Adrenaline drivers in Compute mode on a 13 card RX 480/580 rig with ZERO problems or invalid shares and it's very stable. You can also set the overclock/undervolt/fans directly in the Claymore config or .bat file.

Less old Shares are good.

But how can the miner reduce that himself?  Undecided
Should not the miner just work and send all found shares to the pool? ... and the pool "decides" if the found share came too late?
Does the miner not send all shares to the pool, but decides after a self-invented logic whether he sends it or not?   Huh

Miner can only change pools and find one that matches his hashrate.  I think it is mostly the pools fault.

I went from ethermine and 40 to 60 msec pings and tons of stales to anorak with 120 msec pings and no stales.  Zero.

This has nothing to do with changing the pool.

Readme.txt - FEATURES
- Effective Ethereum mining speed is higher by 3-5% because of a completely different miner code - much less invalid and outdated shares, higher GPU load, optimized OpenCL code, optimized assembler kernels.


But how is this achieved? By better code or a logic in the code that decides that a found share might be outdated, because it was found, for example, only after 40 seconds.

What does the -ethi parameter do? How does he work?
The readme says, this corresponds to the --global-work-size in official miner.

--cl-local-work Set the OpenCL local work size. Default is 64
--cl-global-work Set the OpenCL global work size as a multiple of the local work size. Default is 4096 * 64

Is -ethi 8 the same as these default settings?
what does -ethi 9 or 10 or 11, ... ?
