The big problem is that there are no miners for new algorithms yet, and on old coins this video card will lose to older generations of Nvidia and AMD. I would like to see NEXApow hashrate.
lolMiner has added basic support for Intel Arc Desktop GPUs in verison 1.62 on the following algorithms: ETC, ETC+KAS (1), Kaspa, Flux, Ergo, Beam (2) & Equihash 144/5 (2) Fees are equal to Nvidia and AMD GPUs on the corresponding algorithms. Tested Intel OpenCL driver versions are 22.24.23453 and 22.32.23937. (1) Only on the 8G+ Intel GPUs: A580, A750 and A770 (2) Beam and Equihash are experimental on Intel GPUs. Also see known issues when running multiple cards.

When we can expect miner updates to support 7900 GPUs?
Currently WildRig Multi and SRBMiner Multi are supporting RDNA3. Team Red Miner which is a very popular miner for AMD card doesn't support RDNA3 yet. I have asked them when they will release a new version.

My guess is that NVIDIA, AMD and other large companies that produce efficient graphics cards have invested a lot of their money in Ethereum. In 2020-2021, they all made huge profits from selling hardware at an insanely high price. Miners are still buying new cards to beef up their GPU farms.
If Ethereum switches from a PoW algorithm to a PoS algorithm, these tech companies will most likely dump all their ETH coins on cryptocurrency exchanges, because they will no longer be able to manipulate the prices of modern graphics cards. In other words, PoS-based Ethereum 2.0 may be cheaper than PoW-based Ethereum 1.0, and perhaps ETH developers understand this.
AMD and Nvidia are public companies. They cannot do this without informing the shareholders.

Is there any mining software that perfects the Unlock LHR on GPUs? I have a 3070ti that shows 61MH mining ETH when using Trex miner and few minutes later when the LHR unlock shows 74.5 it starts reducing the hashrate to 56MH, which miner is best for LHR
At the moment there's no mining software that unlocks more than 70% of the maximum hashrate for LHR cards. You can try lolMiner or GMiner.

xmrig from this source looks very suspect.
hXXXs://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases/ xmrig-6.16.2-gcc-win64.zip
It use several anti-debugging techniques and it opens up a remote desktop to receive a console connection and creates foregin user credentials. It looks like it open new processes through DCOM with RPC to bypass security policies. There is weird activity in the registery as well.
I cannot promise it's malware but it sure looks like it. I would not dare to run this on a secure system.
https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases is the official source of XMRig. Or you can use my app to find the latest mining software from official sources & receive update notifications

Thank you.
So basically I can't do any value under 384, what would happen if I set it to 100? It won't start?
Just in case it is mandatory to use the least hash rate of 384, can I unplug the fan? Is that Okay? as it makes really noisy sound even my desk is vibrating lol
I don't want to burn the unit.
Why do you want to set the frequency so low? To save energy or disable the fan? When my fan was broken I removed it and had a 60mm fan blowing on the Moonlander 2 that worked fine and was not so loud. You can even use a bigger fan but I think it doesn't work without a fan.
