AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB ZCash Mining rig 520H/s, 800H/s, 1300H/s to 1550H/s

I just switched my latest Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB to ZCash rig to mine ZCash, as i said in one of my post that you should consider to switch to ZCash because it is very profitable, for now.

ethOS released an update with silentarmy miner that will increase your hashing speed twice faster, read more here

Curious about the results? Check this 2 screenshots, one is with the profit while mining Etherem (ETH) and the second one is for ZCash (ZEC)

So if you decide to upgrade your ethOS to mine ZCash at full speed follow the instructions in this tutorial

Here is my configuration file:

maxgputemp 85
stratumproxy enabled
proxywallet yourwalletkey
proxypool1 eu1-zcash.flypool.org:3333
proxypool2 us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333
flags –cl-global-work 16384 –farm-recheck 200
globalpowertune 4
globaldriver amdgpu
custompanel mypanemypass
autoreboot true

globalminer zcash-miner

mem rigid 2200 2200 2200 2200 2200 2200
fan rigid  35 35 35 35 35 35

You can try mem to 2225 but mine wasn’t that stable there so i wen down a bit.

Before to continue further, please share this 🙂 thanks!

Good luck!

UPDATE: November 19, 2016

New ethOS update, increase your 480s rig with 180+ H/s per GPU! Around 780 H/s – 800 H/s per 6x rig.

  1. Update ethOS by typing this command in terminal: sudo repair-ethos-update && sudo ethos-update && sleep 5 && r
  2. Access “nano local.conf
  3. Replace “globalminer zcash-miner” with “globalminer optiminer-zcash
  4. reboot
  5. That’s it!

UPDATE: January 8, 2017

Update now to the latest ethOS version 1.1.8, this will increase hashing power from 800 H/s to 1300+ H/s.

Also there was a major change, they have added claymore as global miner, after the update you can replace “globalminer optiminer-zcash” with “globalminer claymore-zcash

  1. Update ethOS by typing this command in terminal: sudo repair-ethos-update && sudo ethos-update && sleep 5 && r
  2. Access “nano local.conf
  3. Replace “globalminer optiminer-zcash” with “globalminer claymore-zcash
  4. reboot
  5. That’s it!

UPDATE: January 25, 2017

New with ethOS 1.1.9:

  1. Updated claymore-zcash to 11.1, resulting in faster zcash hashrates
  2. Updated optiminer-zcash to 1.4.0, resulting in faster zcash hashrates
  3. Updated sgminer to 5.5.5, resulting in better stability for XMR mining

To update to the latest version type in terminal the following command: “sudo repair-ethos-update && sudo ethos-update && sleep 5 && r

Ill recommend to use Claymore miner, i had the best results with it from all of my tests.

Previous hashrate: 1,300 H/s

Current hashrate: 1,550-+ H/s

You will get somewhere around 255 – 275 , depends what manufacturer you have!

i will be back with more details soon.
