1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: PhoenixMiner 5.0e: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux) on: July 22, 2020, 07:56:46 PM
Hi Phoenix Miner DEVs

Epoch 350 is now the reported DAG on my miner.

Running 5.0e on Windows 10 with the latest updates, etc.,

Have been having issues, only noticed today (so I'm not sure how long it's been happening, or if you already know about the issue?).  The hash rate has dropped noticably, and there is an error running one of the commands.

----------------------------------

hardware:

x2 AMD Radeon RX470 8GB Mining Edition with the latest AMD Drivers 20.7.2
x1 AMD Radeon RX57000XT 8GB  with the latest AMD Drivers 20.7.2


----------------------------------

prior to Epoch 350:

RX470, 30.3 MH/s, consistent rate
RX5700XT, 54 MH/s, consistent rate

Total 114.6 MH/s


----------------------------------

since Epoch 350:

RX470, 29.3 MH/s, consistent rate
RX5700XT, 48 MH/s - 49.5 MH/s, variable rate

Total 106.6 MH/s - 108.1 MH/s, variable rate


(54 MH/s a bit low for an RX5700XT, but the GFX cards are all squashed in a desktop PC case and this card in particularly is being throttled by thermals, since I'm aware of this though, that's fine from my point of view until I pickup another case or open air mining frame)

----------------------------------

The AMD Radeon RX470 8GB Mining Edition, I was running the cards with the below argument, which worked prior to Epoch 350:

-clKernel 3

GPU1: clSetKernelArg (-49)
Fatal error detected. Restarting


----------------------------------

Running with the optimised setting prevents the fatal error:

-clKernel 1

----------------------------------

Since I was using the -clKernel 3 argument prior to Epoch 350 without an issue, and the argument produced the best/optimal hashrate for my RX470 GPUs and now there is an error and slightly lower overall hashrate, this indicates there is a bug somewhere, and I wanted to report.  I tested the same config on Phoenix 5.0b which had the same result. Other people may not report, and simply use other miners, and you'll lose their DEV FEEs as a result.

Running 5.1b (beta) and hashing rate remains the same lower rate... Going to hop onto another miner for the short term.  But, I'll be back.

Something related to Epoch350 perhaps...
