PhoenixMiner 6.2c: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux)

[starmax]

Decided to try this out on 1 GTX 1070ti today.  ETH-only mining with Claymore was giving me a consistent 34.2 Mh/s, Phoenix is reporting 34.6 Mh/s so I'm going to let it run for a day or 2 and compare shares, but this looks like a winner to me.  Thank you!!

Uh ..

Eth: Accepted shares 49778 (276 stales), rejected shares 3 (0 stales)
Eth: Incorrect shares 4 (0.01%), est. stales percentage 0.55% 
Eth: Maximum difficulty of found share: 33297.4 TH (!!!)

Max share difficulty of 33000?  So 10x the network difficulty of 3200 TH?
There is a very very very slim chance that rig found a block, but 33297 seems more like a software calculation error :/

When making a final judgement make sure that you account for all the contributing factors such as luck, long enough testing period...

Stats from some of my rigs (all 13 GPU rigs 8GB, both RX580 and nvidia 1070 8GB):
Rig 2: Eth speed: 404.844 MH/s, shares: 41520/1/3, time: 115:23, shares per min: 5,895215107
Rig 4: Eth speed: 407.562 MH/s, shares: 120660/1/49, time: 337:48, shares per min: 5,953226761
Rig 1: Eth speed: 409.197 MH/s, shares: 98235/0/31, time: 274:26, shares per min: 5,965929795
Rig 3: Eth speed: 411.097 MH/s, shares: 122320/2/17, time: 337:44, shares per min: 6,036320568
...
The running time is several days for each of the above rigs.
The higher the hash rate the higher the number of shares per minute. As it should be.
But this only become right after several days of running time. For the first few days it was almost random...

hashrate with gtx 1070 ?

Hi,
From the beginning .. sorry for my bad English

I have:
Asus Z-270A
Gigabyte 1070 G1 Gaming (Micron ...but wasn't my choice)
Nvidia Inspector for OC

TDP: 60% - 65% (more stable with 65%)
Core Clock:-200
Memory Clock: +800
Fan: 60%

For lower Memory Clock (~750) you will still have 32-33 Mh/s.

With 7 x 1070:
Claymore 11.6: ~226+ Mh/S
Phoenix Miner 2.9e: ~231-232+ Mh/s
I'm waiting for other coins/algo to be added...and dual mining I hope in the future

Regards,
Radu

These are my stable settings:
Driver: 391.01
Using MSI Afterburner set as:
  Core Voltage (%): 0
  Power Limit (%): 55
  Temp Limit (%): 83 (linked with Power Limit)
  Core Clock (MHz): -200
  Memory Clock (MHz): 635

Note: The power limit is set in cmd (as admin) using next commands:

Code:

cd C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI
nvidia-smi --id=0 --power-limit=100
nvidia-smi --id=1 --power-limit=105
nvidia-smi --id=2 --power-limit=100
...

A draw can be checked by:

Code:

C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI>nvidia-smi --query | find "Power Draw" | find /v "1911" | find /v "N/A"
        Power Draw                  : 100.11 W
        Power Draw                  : 104.22 W
        Power Draw                  : 99.06 W
        Power Draw                  : 99.08 W

I figured when reducing the power limit further down it would had an effect on hash rate (reduced). Found a min limit point at witch the hash was maximised at given settings manually by trial.
Note that the settings above only work stable for me when the power limit was reduced. With the power limit at 100% the settings were note stable at all.

Did push memory freq. further but it did not run stable for long.

I don't lie ... this picture it's from my brother rig's, he still mine ETH on Nanopool with both rig's (AMD and Nvidia).
People say that Nvidia it's not for eth but...with 60% TDP you have ~ 100W / GPU and 33Mh/s.
Me I'm with LUX for the moment...
https://preview.ibb.co/hxbWEH/Capture.png

212 - from 7 RX580 XFX / Asus Z270-A
196.5 - from 6 x 1070 G1 Gaming / Asus Z-270A / TDP 60% Core Clock 0 and Memory Clock +800 (MSI Afterburner).

I'm not sure about nvidia driver, I'm the one who take care that 2 rig's, he is not so good on computers.
Today just changed the driver with the oldest one ... 391.35 (on my rig's).

If you want it's something HERE about Nvidia driver.

Hi just tried new amd driver 18.4.1. I get error errors on vega 64;

Hello Admin

-stales <n> not working in new version.

Reported Hashrate 0

[sergioheadache]

hello,

i have to say, i like this miner very much, but have 1 problem.

i have rig with 12 x rx580 cards,

i set parameter -minfan 90  , but it doesnt work, fans still work as default

any advice ?

thanks

Try with -fanmin 90 -fanmax 95 and see if it does anything, but it should resolve the issue. Watch out for the syntax!

thanks! that did it! now i put all 5 home rigs on phoenixMiner!
good job developers!

[sergioheadache]

hi,

there is one more problem,
for pausing a single gpu, i press 1..9, but what if i have more then 10 gpus, and i need to pause #12 ?

thanks

[UnclWish]

hi,

there is one more problem,
for pausing a single gpu, i press 1..9, but what if i have more then 10 gpus, and i need to pause #12 ?

thanks

Shift + #. For 12 GPU you need to press Shift+2.

hashrate with gtx 1070 ?

These are my stable settings:
Driver: 391.01
Using MSI Afterburner set as:
  Core Voltage (%): 0
  Power Limit (%): 55
  Temp Limit (%): 83 (linked with Power Limit)
  Core Clock (MHz): -200
  Memory Clock (MHz): 635

Is your core clock set to negative 200 mhz?  I'm getting similar hash rates with my MSI GTX 1070s, (just two for the time being.)  Here are my afterburner settings:

Core Voltage: 0%
Power: 65%
Temp: 67 degrees Centigrade (linked with power)
Core Clock: +99
Mem Clock: +650

Core Clock: +99

You do not need to overclock core clock for ETH. Use +0.

[anbe2305]

Core clock should be use to lower the load on memmory but should never get over +150, and this also lower the power to get the card running between 80 and 100 watts with reduced power limit between 50 and 60%

Here you have a good guide how to overclock  nvidia cards https://mining.help/nvidia-ethereum-mining/

It is difficult to run the miner on the system)))

You dont need any antivirus  on the system if your running miner.This miner is 100% clean and is the fastest miner you can get with its lowest fee.

Oh no!
Name me one miner that is not flagged as a virus.
