Is there any way I can win?

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 6 shares 24 minutes, devfee made 2 on top of that.

GOD DAMN IT WHY DOES MY SHIT SUCK REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>2595150

are you running claymore on linux?

>>2595175
running claymore dual with eth only on win8.1

I have no idea what a stable clock range would be for this shit, 1150/1980 crashes every time i close the miner, and was the setting that got the fail hashes as well.

>>2595267
heh, i could have helped with the devfee part (i patched it out on my linux miners)

anyway, try overvolting ram a bit, it helped for me, although i still get ~1% in invalid shares on my 4xx cards.

>>2595291
how do you edit out dev fee

>>2595291
What do you mean by this? the cards ram or the computers ram?

Seriously new to this, only been mining around 2 days at this point. should have started last year when I got my card.

>>2595345

i mean vram. i'm running at 1050, not sure if just pure luck but it looks like it improved.

>>2595319

i'm an experienced reverse engineer and i simply deobfuscated the miner, found code handling it, and disabled it by editing the miner.

>>2595372
what's that mean in non-nerd listed steps

>>2595381
essentially a modified version of the miner.
I did not share it yet, although I am thinking of publishing it.

>>2595398
post it faggot and make sure you put your address somewhere

Which coin is the best to mine?

>>2595413
right now probably eths, if you can ever get the piece of shit mining.

>>2595442
Well i tried to sync in geth but failed so far
Also downloaded ethminer
any good guides

>>2595462
google ethminer.

I wonder how long until this piece of shit starts to lag like fuck and fail shares again.

>>2595372
Not sure if LARPing but there is publicly avaliable tool for avoiding devfee. I have about 500 mh/s of hashrate, and using this adds about 12mh/s worth of hashrate to the pool.

>>2595495
when I try nodev it completely stops my successful shares.

I think claymore did something in his dual miner so it fucks you.

>>2595406
ok, you convinced me
make sure you're running version 9.5 and that 'gdb' is installed then run this (while miner is running)

>>2595491
So i use ethermine.org?

>>2595495
looks like that's old and actually keeps the devfee, just makes it go to you rather than claymore.

mine actually gets rid of it entirely and works on latest version.

Why does this just hang!? I have a 950 GTX. Anyone know how to magic it good?

>>2595547
Is there any benefit to getting rid of it ? If devfee mines to my own address isn't it the same as not having devfee in the first place ? I'm always looking to optimize my earnings if possible, please explain.

I'm up to 8 shares every 9 minutes which is fast as fuck compared to what I was doing.

Can someone tell me what Watchdog is and will it help with my shit crashing and failing shares?

>>2595536
literally go to reddit for etherium and click the bar on the right side that has the guides.

I use ethermine.org as my pool though.

>>2595550
if that's when it just first starts up then its fine, if its actually hanging for more than a minute your shit is fucked and idk what to tell you since I dont have any intel.

>>2595582
i mean, i honestly don't know
it may have some performance benefit

also you wouldn't be running some guy's miner, this is a very simple runtime modification (easier for me to prove that my code is not malicious, since i am literally just editing like 11 bytes in claymore's miner).

Also there is a chance that devfee mining fails, and it will put miner in nofee mode. unlikely but can happen and will cost you 2-3%

>>2595612
dumb noob question, but how would i go about editing the vram as you suggested? I know that claymore asks to set a 16gb limit but I thought that was only for multiple cards. Do you use watchdog? what does it do?

>>2595612
You gonna post it or just here to brag? I'm using the NoDevFee public program as well and would like a clean edit that strips it out.

>>2595604
I have left it for over 10 min and it just hangs there :(

I can get the fucker to mine, but only if it's not pointing at a pool...

>>2595612
Alright, in that case is there a chance you could make your workaround also work for a windows client ? Or is it more complicated than that ?

>>2595584
that ui is absolutely horrendous

>>2595634
polaris bios editor lets you do it, just save your vbios, edit and flash. there's a section in PBE with various VRAM clock speeds and mV, alter mV.

>>2595641
i already posted it, check the thread lmao.

>>2595648
i dunno, i personally only run linux on my mining operation so have no personal interest in windows. i may end up doing it if i have time, it should be straightforward

>>2595641

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE i went up 10 shares in 12 minuntes.

Now i haven't found a share in 9 minutes.

is this shit normal or is my reee justified?

>>2595517
does that take care of the performance reduction if devfee is disabled?

>>2595696
yes. i'm running it on my 4GH/s op and i lose nothing

Currently mining ZEC on 3 x rx 480 8gb with claymore zec miner, windows 10. Waiting on risers from china for the other 4 slots on mobo.

Hashrate at the pool is between 800h/s to 1.2kh/s

I have been mining zec for a while because I feel like the price has been a little more stable, work is being done to use ZEC over ETH network, and alphabay is supposed to be adding it in the next few weeks (july I think)

It also seems to consume quite a bit less power than ETH mining, but ymmv

>>2595517

>>2595792
Waiting on risers here too, bought on ebay but didn't realise they were coming from China. Have to wait till July.

I don't think mining GNT will be very profitable, but who knows, we'll see. Right not ETH is still the king, but soon it will be better to switch to ZEC or other coin. If you want some holding and pumping actions join us on https://t.me/beyondmars

87 shares in 3hour 14 minutes.
it's shit, but i guess it will average out, and my shit hasn't crashed yet. 27.8 Mh/s

Just started mining with my 480 with NiceHash.

Someone convince me that I am doing it wrong.

>>2597888
Mine Zcash, flip that shit for BTC

Nicehash is so inconsistent and buggy that I've found mining altcoins that are profitable is a much more solid investment strat.

>>2598621
Zcash is apparently good for nvidia cards.not sire if true or not

I flashed my BIOS a while back and got the miner working. Was getting around 24MH/s and then my computer crashed. Now my GPU is not detected at all. Any advice?
