Does anyone have the best settings the RX 5700 XT for both efficiency and hash rate?

Miners update:
- lolminer-v1.12 (Added support for ETCHash (Ethereum Classic dag size reduction planned for end November). Slightly improved Ethash efficiency for GCN 3 (R9 Fury, 470 - 590) & Navi cards. Added experimental support for Ethash on Nvidia GPUs. Added new parameter: --4g-alloc-size to define the memory allowed for Ethash on 4G cards. Added new parameter: --worker to set the worker in ETHPROXY stratum mode (improves pool compatibility). Overall new Ethash host size back end - hopefully improving stability of mining. Fixed bug: Logs were not written when "LOG" : 1 was set in json style config file)
- nanominer-v1.12.0 (Support upcoming Ethereum Classic's EtcHash algorithm. Switching ETC mining from Ethash to EtcHash is hardcoded on epoch 390)
- nbminer-nebutech-v33.2 (Octopus improve hashrate: +150% on 10 series, +80% on 16, 20, 30 series. Fix: --share-check 0 cause high CPU usage. Added back Uptime in console summary)
- tt-miner-v6.0.0 (Removed algos: EAGLESONG, LYRA2. Removed cuda version 10.0 and 10.1, added cuda version 10.2. Version with cuda 11.1 will be from next release in SimpleMining. Added support for: VeriBlock, Zelantus, Veil (ProgPoW), Added fees again. Solo mining & EPIC: 2%, all others 1%. Support for solomining for EPIC, Raven, Veil, Zelantus)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- tt-miner-v6.0.0 (Added binary with cuda-11.1 support. Please keep in mind that you must have image with cuda 11.1 support on rig. This mean having image with at least NVIDIA driver 455.23 version)
- bminer-v16.3.2 (Retire the support of the Tensority algorithm. Initial support for the Conflux PoW algorithm. Reduce the rejection rates when mining Ethereum)
- xmrig-v6.5.0 (Added online benchmark mode for sharing results. Added new command line options: --submit, --verify=ID, --seed=SEED, --hash=HASH. Fixed MSR kernel module warning)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- teamredminer-v0.7.17 (Fixed deadlock bug that could happen when using multiple pools with the failover strategy. Added option for not sending stale shares --no_stale_submit. Added watchdog check for early gpu init hangs)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- nanominer-v1.13.0 (Added support for Conflux Network's Octopus algorithm on Nvidia)
- t-rex-v0.18.6 (ethash, kawpow, progpow - reduce GPU memory consumption (by ~6MB). Cache DAG for epoch 0 when mining ETH+ZIL (run with --extra-dag-epoch 0 parameter). Bug fixes: (ethash) kernels 4 and 5 generate incorrect shares if DAG size > 4GB (e.g. when mining ETC). (ethash) out of memory error in "zombie" mode. The miner now reports hashrate every 2 seconds in benchmark mode)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- t-rex-v0.18.7 (ethash, kawpow, progpow - Worker name is not being passed for some mining pools. From now on the username (-u) for these algorithms is no longer parsed as <wallet_address>.<worker_name>. If the pool requires the worker name to be sent, it has to be set with -w parameter. If -w is not set, the miner will set it to <algorithm>_worker0 by default)
- xmrig-v6.5.1 (New MSR mod for Ryzen, up to +3.5% on Zen2 and +1-2% on Zen3)

I'm running kernel: 5.0.21-SM11 driver: AMD19.50r5.2.6 with 4 RX5700XT graphic cards using TeamRedMiner.

Overclock:
Core: 1300
Memory: 900
Undervolt: 800
Power Stage: 7

I have no issues and run stable mining with teamredminer-v0.7.17 on Ethermine. I've also used teamredminer-v0.7.16c with Ethermine with no stability issues. Both running this start up:

Ethermine startup:

Code:

-a ethash -o stratum+ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555 -u 0xdd484cddd2ad58d2f562db2973ce1f87b59826e4.$rigName -p x --api_listen --watchdog_script

When I try mining on NiceHash I am unstable and the miner restarts multiple times due to crashing. I can't utilize teamredminer-v0.7.17 at all because GPU's keep appearing as dead and restart. When using teamredminer-v0.7.16c I also have dead GPU issues.

NiceHash startup:

Code:

-a ethash -o stratum+tcp://daggerhashimoto.usa.nicehash.com:3353 -u 3DBqCED2PaDE8cQC1PVNd61vgTz2ijCdC8.$rigName -p x --api_listen --watchdog_script

Last crash:

Code:

[2020-11-11 14:27:38] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2020-11-11 14:27:38] GPU 2: detected DEAD (0a:00.0), will execute restart script watchdog.sh

Rebooting
(by mining software). Check crash logs.
[2020-11-11 14:27:39] Pool daggerhashimoto.usa.nicehash.com set difficulty to 0.621977

Anyone have a solution?

Miners update:
- t-rex-v0.18.8 (Add etchash algorithm for upcoming ETC fork. Compatibility ethash with Mining Rig Rentals pool)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- lolminer-v1.13 (Ethash: Reduced power draw significantly on non-zombie mode for Rx Fury & Rx 470 - 590, slight reduction for Vega & Navi. Ethash: Slightly improved performance on Vega, Navi and Nvidia GPUs. Significantly improved performance on R9 390. Added Zombie mode for RX 5300XT & RX 5500 4G cards. Added ETCHash support for Radeon HD 79x0 / R9 280 (X) & RX 5300 3G. Will be good for ETCHash till epoch ~250 (about July 2022). Added caching of last 5 used light caches. This will reduce the switching time for Nicehash & ZIL dual mining significantly. Added support for extranonce subscription on EthereumStratum/1.0.0 (Nicehash) format - this will stop the miner from frequently reconnecting to Nicehash. Added detection of pool not accepting worker name in <wallet.workerName> format when using ETHPROXY stratum. Miner will reconnect with worker name copied into --worker in this case. Fixed bug: "conversion of data to type "b" failed" when using ETHPROXY stratum mode on some pools. Fixed potential issue causing GPUs to freeze when a GPU needs to reboot, e.g. epoch change or connection loss. Fixed benchmark mode for ETCHash. Use --benchmark ETCHASH --benchepoch 390 to benchmark performance post fork)
- nbminer-nebutech-v33.4 (Optimize: octopus improve hashrate: +35% on 16 20 30 series Nvidia GPUs, +20% on all other GPUs.  New algo: etchash for upcoming ETC upgrade. Feature: add effective pool hashrate 10min 4h 24h)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- lolminer-v1.14 (Added Ethash Zombie mode for 4G Nvidia)

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- bminer-v16.3.6 (Improved performance of Conflux)
- lolminer-v1.15 (Fixed invalid shares on 4G GPUs on some systems. Fixed hangs up when changing epoch when using the ZIL cache feature. Fixed invalid shares when a new job with different epoch arrives while the miner is currently creating the DAG file for an earlier job. Fixed calling emergency scripts when GPU hungs up. Improved Ethash efficiency on Nvidia. ZIL cache now can be used by cards with less then 8G when enough memory is available. General stability improvements)
- nanominer-v1.13.1 (Improved performance of Conflux on Nvidia. Nvidia 30xx will be supported soon)
- xmrig-v6.5.2 (Separate MSR mod for Zen/Zen2 and Zen3. Print path to existing WinRing0 service without verbose option. Fixed alignment modification in memory pool. Added 250K and 500K offline benchmarks)

Can you do mixed rigs? i.e. nvidia and amd in same rig... edit.. found the answer to this... it's no.


still looking for the answer for this one.
What is the maximum number of gpu suppported in a single rig?

I am waiting for PhoenixMiner 5.2c

[tymeksm]

Miners update:
- gminer-v2.30 (Performance improvements for BeamHashIII - up to +2-3%. Added AMD solvers for Ethash and Etchash. Reduced stale shares percentage on Ethash algorithm, it will improve hashrate on pool side. Support Etchash. Reduced memory usage for Cortex 8GB solver - about 50MB)
- sgminer-fancyIX-v0.7.0 (Added over 10x faser yescrypt kernel. Added Navi support for yescrypt)
- t-rex-v0.18.9 (Ethash increase pool side hashrate by 1-2% by reducing the amount of stale shares the miner drops before sending to the pool. Ethash, kawpow, progpow - set worker name to %hostname% if not specified. Fixed ethash low pool side hashrate when mining ETH+ZIL due to incorrect difficulty parsing. Fixed ethash, kawpow, progpow miner crashes on low RAM multi-GPU rigs during DAG rebuild)
- xmrig-v6.5.3 (Fixed high CPU usage on Cryptonight and AstroBWT)

We also still waiting for phoenixminer-v5.2c for Linux to implement in SimpleMining. Please be pacient ;-)

Hello. From time to time, I get the following error, usually every 8-10 hours:

Code:

[ 2432.225031] amdgpu 0000:07:00.0: GPU fault detected: 147 0x00004801 for process PhoenixMiner pid 5587 thread PhoenixMiner pid 5587

How can I determine which GPU is causing this ?
