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

[AzzAz]

Hello, i just move from windows to linux and i have few questions.
Because in linux amd seems to not having a gui to OC the GPU, i did try to use the oc method from the miner but no effect.
Can someone make some give me solution for my problem?in windows i had 31Mh/s and now 21 22Mh/s.
Thank you.

Did you try to put one same settings for all cards ( lowest, from worst card )? Strange but that helped me.
 Like PM not working properly when I set parameters for each card

Thanks for your answer, but my problem sems to be kernel or amdgpu driver.At stock settings i get 21 22mh/s gpu rx 580, if i oc by 1+ mhz the vram i get less performance 18 19 mh/s. On windows i was using 2180 for vram and was stable.

Anyone has any idea regarding the drop rate on ETC ?

Anyone has any idea regarding the drop rate on ETC ?

I do not see any drops on ETC e.g. vs Nicehash

[Shivoreun]

Hi.
I have a problem with strap settings (-mt value) - the miner can't set the timings
-----------------------------------------------
GPU0: Unable to set VMEM timing to 2 - error: -8
GPU1: Unable to set VMEM timing to 2 - error: -8
GPU2: Unable to set VMEM timing to 2 - error: -8
-----------------------------------------------
Rig is on AMD RX570 8Gb, under Win10, driver 18.3.4 (tried the 19.12.3 as well). Phoenix 4.9c
Miner is running via "Run as admin..."

Any thoughts, what can be an issue?..

Hi all, help me pleaese, mining ETC on ethermine or nicehase i look this error today(

not enough vram for dag epoch 322
not enough vram for dag epoch 322
not enough vram for dag epoch 322

How to fix this, card msi p104-100

Well, it seems your GPU is lacking memory to load the dag file for ETC.

You don't but I do :p
Someone else has the same issue.
For some reason, it's perfectly fine with ETH but speed drops by half with ETC.
I'll run a test for nicehash with ETC, I think I still have an account from before nicehash hack

Edit : getting same slow speed with nicehash. The only good speed I can get is with ETH on Ethermine
Edit2 : finaly, now I have slow speed on ETH AND ETC... At least this is consistent :-/

You need to unlock these to 8GB or add 1x 8GB GPU to your rig and make it GPU0 so DAG can create

[strelly83]

Hi, I have a question: I have a rig with some 4Gb and 8Gb amd RX 5xx cards.
When the size of the DAG file exceeds 4GB (next December), will it be necessary to replace the 4GB cards with 8GB models or since I have 8Gb cards will everything work?

Did you do -proto 3 -acm for etc ethermine? and -proto 4 -stales 0 for nicehash?

Yes. I have tried so many settings. None of them fix the issue and it's only with ethash in live mode. With bench it's OK under epoch 310 (using latest PhoenixMiner and I have 1070ti and settings more than 64Gb of virtual memory)

So, nobody didn't has this issue? It's only me "lucky"?

[Money_king88]

i am seeing that some are getting 20 to 25 MH on a 570 is this normal? I can only pull around 10.5 max

Start miner in administrator mode (right click > run as administrator), press y to set compute mode, reboot computer.
Without bios mod you should get ~25MH/s, with bios mod you should get 30-31MH/s.

With RX 5700 it is better to use old drivers? Newest seems to degrade some percentage?

What are you currenty using and can yu share your settings?

19.11.3 is the best driver?

[aarts]

phoenix miner support amd rocm drivers?

depending on your GPUs. performance-wise  for Polarises no difference from 18.6.2 or higher
