Haven't been able to get Claymore stable 24hr+ with my RX580 8G rigs. Settings were 1200/2000/1100mV with power stage 5. Stilll reseting.
Since some of you are talking about SGminer...trying to config sgminer 5.5.5 in SMOS for my rigs default is:
--no-submit-stale --kernel cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355 -u [yourwallet].$rigName -p x --rawintensity 1000 -w 8 --text-only
I would like to change the rawintensity, worksize etc to be optimized for my miners. I have two different setups, either RX 570 4G or RX580 8G.
For the RX570 4G I'm trying to pass a --rawintensity 512 --worksize 4. For the RX580 8G, I'm trying to pass --rawintensity 1152 --worksize 8.
I've also seen people change the gpu-threads to 2, though I haven't played with this setting. Has anyone seen a change in performance by changing # GPU threads?
When I do this, I see no change in performance, even when I adjust values. It just shows:
[21:54:08] Startup GPU initialization... Using settings from pool cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com.
[21:54:08] Startup Pool No = 0
[21:54:08] Building binary cryptonightEllesmeregw8l8.bin
Initialising kernel cryptonight.cl with nfactor 10, n 1024.
Right now I'm only hashing at 480H/s on the 570 and 677H/s on the RX580. With Claymore I was getting 630H/s and 740H/s respectively.
Thanks.

Hello,
What are your settings for the RX580 8G? Core Speed/Mem Speed/Voltage? What do you have your -h set at? Are you running SMOS?
I'm wondering if you are able to get it stable for longer than 24hrs. I can usually get my RX580 8G rigs stable for 5-8 hrs but then it will reset so I end up getting 3-4 resets in a day. When I was mining ETH with the same rig, it would be stable for 24hr+. Right now my settings are 1200/2000/1000mV with a -h of 1600 running SMOS. I am also running RX570 4G rigs and they are a little more stable at 1-2 resets a day. Not sure why the higher memory cards are having issues. Settings for the 4G cards are 1200/1750/1000mV with a -h of 850 running SMOS.
Both of my rigs are using 11 GPUs, 8G of RAM, z270 chipset.
Cheers,
I would hazard a guess that your memory is too far OC'ed. Cards that were stable on ETH for me, have been less tolerant under Cryptonote or Equihash - maybe because both of those are much more memory hard. To be honest, this exact reason is why I stopped using Nicehash Miner and just configure the software to point to their servers as I found when it switches settings, one set of OC/voltage/config for cards that worked in ETH might crash them when it flips to another algo.
I had the same issue and I think I discovered why - Cryptonight uses all of the GPUs memory while ETH only uses ~2.3GB. This means the memory needs more power on cryptonight.
Long story short: increase the power limit on the GPUs. I had mine at 0 for ETH but +5-10 makes my cards stable for Cryptonight.
Interesting, I didn't know that ETH only uses 2.3Gb of memory.
As for the OC'd cards, 2000mHz is actually stock speed so unless I need to underclock to solve this issue.
When you've increased the power limit, is that the memory voltage or just the overall power level? In SMOS I have two options which is why I'm asking. Do you know what voltage level you were running the cards? I'm at 1000mV right now, which is undervolted I believe. I'm not sure what stock voltage levels are (maybe 1300 or 1400?)
Thanks!

Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
Hello,
I have 16 miners working right now on SMOS. I have 8 miners connected to an unmanaged TPLink TL-SG1016 switch. I have the other 8 miners connected similarly to a separate switch. These two unmanaged switches are connected to my router which has DHCP enabled. Router is connected to the internet.
I'm having an issue that when one of my SMOS miners freezes, it takes down the entire unmanaged switch it is connected to. i.e. all the other miners on that switch go offline. The minute I turn off and reboot the frozen miner manually (holding the power switch for 5s) all the other miners go back online and resume mining. I'm not sure if the frozen miner is flooding the switch with packets or something, I was wondering if anyone else ran into this issue.
I am not sure what is freezing my miner as well. I find that after a couple of resets, the freezing will go away but then another miner on the network will start to do the same thing a few days later. This happens on either switch network.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I had that behaviour when moved to claymore v10.2 but, to be honnest I had a superior speed with it. Like you, sometimes the miner restart and stay freezed at 0H/s as well. The only way of getting out of this state was rebooting the whole rig. And by rebooting, i mean shutting it off, wait 2-3s in power-off and then rebooting. Lowering the "-h" parameter bring more stability to the system. So, my current onfiguration is:
Cards: RX580-4G,RX580-4G,RX580-4G,RX570-8G,RX570-8G,RX580-4G,RX580-4G,RX580-4G,RX580-4G,RX480-4G
Claymore command line to XMR mining:
-xpool stratum+ssl://xmr-eu1.nanopool.org:14433 -xwal XMR_ADDRESS/$rigName/your@email.com -xpsw x -mport -3333 -h 850,850,850,1700,1700,850,850,850,850,850
As you can see, you can pass to the miner a comma separated values in that each one is to a specific card from my list above. For reference, the default "-h" value for the 4Gigs cards is "900" and "1800" for the 8Gigs.
My current frequencies for each card are:
CORE: 1200,1200,1200,1200,1200,1200,1200,1200,1200,1200
MEM: 2000,2000,2000,1900,1900,2000,2000,2000,2000,2000
XMR - Total Speed: 6948 H/s, Total Shares: 1340, Rejected: 0, Time: 06:43 |
XMR: GPU0 715 H/s, GPU1 715 H/s, GPU2 715 H/s, GPU3 686 H/s, GPU4 649 H/s, GPU5 712 H/s, GPU6 715 H/s, GPU7 713 H/s, GPU8 713 H/|
s, GPU9 615 H/s
Hope this help
Can anyone confirm what's the "-h" is doing behind the scenes? and why lowering it a bit bring more stability?
Just wanted to update. I tried lowering the -h value on my rigs. I have three different setups:
6x RX570 4G - these are at 1200/1750/1000mV -h 850 -> These have been stable for last 24h, no resets
11x RX570 4G - these are at 1200/1750/1000mV -h 850 -> These have reset 2-4 times over last 24h - Going to test -h 800 to see if I can get better stability
11x RX580 8G - these are at 1200/2000/1000mV -h 1700 -> These have reset 1-2 times over last 24h - Going to test -h 1600 to see if I can get better stability
For the RX570 4G cards, I'm hashing at 644, for the RX580 8G cards, I'm hashing at 733. I'm not sure why the RX570 4G have been stable but the RX580 8G have not. Hopefully this next test shows a better result.
I'm not sure if there's a way to increase the virtual memory on SMOS. My rigs use 8G of physical RAM (tho I just realized that both my 6x and 11x rigs both are using 8G of RAM so maybe I should increase my 11x rigs to 16G of RAM). I'm not using SSDs either, SMOS is being booted from a 16G 3.0 USB drive. I'm not sure if 16G of physical RAM would increase stability as I used to mine Ethereum with these rigs and they have been stable with far more aggressive settings. The RX570 4G were at 1150/1750/950mV and the RX580 8G were at 1150/2100/950mV and the systems were stable for 100+ hours with no resets.

Guys,
I'm running a 10 cards rig 8*RX580-4G + 2*RX570-8G + RX480 @ core/mem 1200/2000, 1750 strips. Right now I'm using SimpleMining OS. Had no issues when mining with XMR-STAK, but after changed to claymore v10.2; with these settings, I start noticing rig freezes and miner reboots.
Noticed that by deafault, Claymore V10.2 was passaing the -h 900 & -h 1800 to the 4G and 8G cards respectively. I've downgraded the "-h" parameter to 850 & 1700 respectively @ core/mem 1200/1900 , and it seems to do the trick.
Question, what the heck is the -h? and what it does precisely?
Another question... if I want to configure the failover in SimleMining, whats the path to upload the epools.txt file? anyone knows?
Best.

I'm using Simplemining OS as well and have issues with the miner constantly freezing and reboot. The other issue I get is the miner will restart but the initializing will fail and the miner will be stuck at mining 0H/s.
I've never played with the -h value. On page 1 it says -h deals with # of hashes that the GPU processes so it probably has to do with how intense you run the cards. I'm going to play with this as well and see how it changes. Sucks that you had to downgrade the cards to 1200/1900, I would have hoped that you can at least run at 2000 mem speed. Have you tried to play with the voltage levels?
What do you have your -allpools set to? Right now my settings are this:
-wd 1 -r 0 -xpool stratum+ssl://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:33355 -xwal [yourwallet].$rigName -xpsw x -allpools 0
I'm running RX570 4G at 1150/1750/1000mV and RX580 8G at 1200/2050/1000mV.
Oh that would probably explain why their "accepted" speed keeps changing so much. Didn't realize that they would be switch your connection to somewhere else. I thought the jobs would be coming from the server you're connected to, instead of them connecting you to the client directly that's asking for the hash power.
When you say to do separate instances, do you mean physically disconnecting each one and testing it that way?

Mining equipment: Network switches, routers for managing multiple miners
Hello,
I have 16 miners working right now using simple mining OS. I have 8 miners connected to an unmanaged TPLink TL-SG1016 switch. I have the other 8 miners connected similarly to a separate switch. These two unmanaged switches are connected to my router (TP LINK N750) which has DHCP enabled. Router is connected to the internet.
I'm having an issue that when one of my SMOS miners freezes, it takes down the entire unmanaged switch it is connected to. i.e. all the other miners on that switch report as offline. The minute I reset the frozen miner manually (holding the power switch for 5s) all the other miners go back online and resume mining. I'm not sure if the frozen miner is flooding the switch with packets or something and I was wondering if anyone else ran into this issue.
I was hoping if anyone has a better suggestion for a network layout to manage my miners. Is there a better option I should look into than using the TP-Link unmanaged switches and router?
Is it better for my miners to be connected to a managed switch with is then connected to my router? My router also functions as the DSL gateway so I am using it to manage that and the DHCP. I thought the unmanaged switches would just function as an extension of the router (since it only has 4 ports) which is handling the IP assignment. I still don't understand why went one miner freezes, it takes down all the other miners on that switch.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am having an issue with my claymore cryptonote miner constantly restarting every hour or two, usually with watchdog timeouts. I am running it on SMOS. I've had no issue running the claymore miner for Eth, system is usually stable for days on end. For mining ETH, I usually connect to a pool but for Cryptonight, I am trying out NiceHash.
My rigs use RX580 8G. 1150/2100/1000mV/PowerStage 4 - initially I had the voltage at 950mV and powerstage 3 as these settings have been solid for mining ETH.
My claymore initializing settings are: -wd 1 -r 0 -xpool stratum+ssl://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:33355 -xwal yourWallet.yourRigName -xpsw x -allpools 1
Does anyone else run into a similar issue with stability?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I've had no issue running the claymore miner for Eth, system is usually stable for days on end. For mining ETH, I usually connect to a pool but for Cryptonight, I am trying out NiceHash.
My rigs use RX580 8G. 1150/2100/1000mV/PowerStage 4 - initially I had the voltage at 950mV and powerstage 3 as these settings have been solid for mining ETH.
My claymore initializing settings are: -wd 1 -r 0 -xpool stratum+ssl://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:33355 -xwal yourWallet.yourRigName -xpsw x -allpools 1
Does anyone else run into a similar issue with stability?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
Hello,
I have 16 miners working right now on SMOS. They are mining using claymore, mix of xmr and eth. I have 8 miners connected to an unmanaged TPLink TL-SG1016 switch. I have the other 8 miners connected similarly to a separate switch. These two unmanaged switches are connected to my router (TP LINK N750) which has DHCP enabled. Router is connected to the internet.
I'm having an issue that when one of my SMOS miners freezes, it takes down the entire unmanaged switch it is connected to. i.e. all the other miners on that switch go offline. The minute I reset the frozen miner manually (holding the power switch for 5s) all the other miners go back online and resume mining. I'm not sure if the frozen miner is flooding the switch with packets or something, I was wondering if anyone else ran into this issue.
I was also wondering if anyone has a better suggestion for a network layout to manage my miners. Is there a better option I should look into than using the TP-Link unmanaged switches and router?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,
System:
Intel G4400
MSI Z170a gaming M5 (updated BIOS to 1.D)
7x RX470 4GB
120GB SSD (UEFI)
Win10 Pro
8Gb Ram
I've been able to get 7 RX470 GPUs to work using MSI z170a gaming m5 however I ran into some issues.
I needed to first disable 4G, install only one card and load drivers. Then shutown, install all 7 GPUs, enable 4G and reset
However, with 4G enabled and PCIe set to GEN1, my system would not boot - would keep getting a black screen. To get around this, there's an option for Win8.1/10 optimization in the BIOS that I enabled. I have no idea what this actually does to the system. I haven't tried disabling this and rebooting to see if windows loads again or not now that the system recognized the cards. Does anyone here know what this BIOS config does? Has anyone been able to get 7 GPUs to work on this MB without enabling this option?
Also, what drivers are you running in general? I'm currently running the latest (17.5.2) and I have had issues before with older drivers causing the system to boot with a black screen.
Cheers

Screen freezes when starting up GPUZ or Sapphire Trixx - 7 GPU rig
Hello,
Just got my mining rig up and running. I wanted to run GPUZ and Sapphire Trixx so I can monitor my cards (and eventually undervolt/increase mem speed) however my screen freezes when I start either of them (doesn't go black, just freeze).
OS: Win10 Pro
MB: MSI Z170a gaming m5
CPU: Intel G4400
Memory: Fury HyperX 8Gb
SS: Kingston 120Gb
PS: EVGA 1300w
GPU: 6x Gigabyte RX470 4GB + 1x MSI RX470 4GB (7 GPUs total)
I was just wondering, am I not suppose to run Sapphire Trixx or GPUZ with all 7 cards running at the same time? I know when flashing the bios, its recommended to flash each one individually, but I'm not sure about undervolt/memspeeds tuning.
To mod the clock speeds and voltage settings, do I need to modify each card individually (i.e. unplug all the other cards), set the optimal voltage/speed, repeat with each card individually and then plug all cards in after? If so, where do you save the settings for each card after you unplug it to move to the next card? Will your system remember the settings or is it saved to the card?
Sorry I'm new to this so just trying to navigate. I was under the assumption that you can run Sapphire Trixx/GPUZ with all cards running and modify it then, but as I wrote - screen just freezes up.
Thanks for the help!
