Well, after initial good results on both my rigs with 9.6, I now have problems with both. Woke up this morning to rig #2 (6x RX 470s) crashed and all fans blasting. This happened the night before with core/clock settings of 1200/1950, so I had lowered it to 1200/1920. It ran all day fine then just a few minutes ago, I check it and I had the same "Open CL hung in thread 10 & 11" issue that had occurred the night before. Now I have it set at default 1242/1900, so we will see how that goes.
On Rig #1 that had been running 4x rx 470s for over 4 days straight at 1242/1900, it just experienced that sporadic fan blasting issue that others have encountered. So, I had to reboot and reset that one as well.
Bottom line, there definitely appear to be stability issues with the 4xx series cards, so hopefully this is something that can be addressed in the forthcoming v10.
I know this belongs on the CPU thread but I have also seen weird things going on with Claymore CPU XMR Miner 3.5. I have 3 K series i7's mining it and on 2 of my 3 PCs, the hash-rate has inexplicably dropped by about 10-15%. This is after restarting and rebooting several times and there is nothing else running CPU wise, yet for some reason it's not as effective.
Really looking forward to the GPU miner update. Thanks in advance Claymore!
So... both rigs ran fine overnight with the 1242/1900 settings, but then this morning, rig #2 crashes and reboots again. Same settings, same cards, generally same setup, but rig 2 is just unstable. Got it running again but now I am getting sporadic "low difficulty shares". Does anyone know what the main causes of these are? Also, what problems do they cause? I've heard of people getting banned from dwarf for too many of these so I don't want that to happen, but don't know what to do to fix it either. Right now at least it I've only seen 2 in about 25 minutes of running but not sure what "too many" is either.
