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

[plastkort]

I'm having a bit trouble with phoenixminer and my miningexpert B250 motherboard... it finds all my 6 gpus and starts filling up the DAG, however sometimes it fails to do so with a few of the gpus, which resulting in the computer crash with bluescreen then reboots.

this repeats often many times after consecutive retries after reboots, and sometimes it works after a poweroff...


any clue to what causes this ?

Beside the PSU, check also your x1 headers from risers in MB, cause i have had almost same probs, i have absolutely overkill PSU power and even show all green pcie slots on POST, but on load two of 15 x1 headers in MB was completely shutdown (it has LED on it so i can see, two leds turn red instead blue), replaced in my case and good to go, and check cables, risers and connection between of course

Can you please add ProgPow for Zano ?
Thank you.

Seconded !!

Is it planned to expand the dual algorithms? If planned, when to wait and what algorithms will be added? And somehow everything is sad with Blake2s ...

Why phoenix not mining callisto with 2gb card, while claymore can do this? "Not enough vram for epoch 87"   Ok, found that this is happening with 4.2c, while 3.0c is working.

What about AMD 19.5.1 drivers? Does bouble kernels work on it?

After long while tried 42c instead of ethminer, reported hashrate of phoenix is noticeably higher, real is about the same, but less stales, but after about 26 hours of mining all workers disconnected from pool, but kept hashing (and using electricity). Not good.

Sadly I have to confirm this bug, my ISP had to reroute something and connection was stalled for about 20mins, all this time while phoenixminer was trying to reconnect it was using full power.

[evlo]

Well it did not reconnect in my case, just wasting power, i let it run for hour.

most likely your win10 defender is stopping the .exe from running because it thinks its malicious.  add it to the exceptions should work

Hello. Someone know why my cards mining the Half? In eth its mining just the Half. I used in the past a beta of crimson and i can minning in 22 Mhz. With the last adrenaline (or crismon), i am mining jsut the half (10.5) Why?

and, i am mining with nicehash (LyraV3) and i mining the same with old or new drivers. So the problem is the ETherum.

What happed?

RX 470 4GB Gigabyte: 21.000 Mhz
RX 470 4 GB Sapphire 24.000 Mhz
RX 570 8 GB Asrock: 23.000 Mhz

This.. the half :/

Did you activate compute mode for every card?

In Radeon Settings? i will chek

[zagalika]

Is there any chance to order gpu-s indexes, similar to claymore's -di attribute?

[Upperscore]

Hi, new here.

I'm dual mining ETH and Blake2s.

Question 1: Is blake2s even profitable? I would earn 1$ a year mining blake2s at 1500 MH/s

Question 2: Whan can I mine instead of blake2s?

Thanks guys!

Are there some big openCL changes in 19.5.1 that broke compatibility?

I don't see anything related in release notes:

Who knows what AMD changed... But it's the fact, I checked. We need miner update if we want to use AMD 19.5.1+ driver...

If I update to the newest AMD driver. Will it affect GPU order 1,2,3,4,5,6 that I have today?
