What might be wrong now?  

I think there is not enough vmem on GPU1. Monitor connected to GPU1? If so you need an integrated card or replace 1st GPU by 6 or 8Gb card.

Yes, monitor is connected to GPU1... so I have to disconnect monitor from GPU1 to try fixing this issue?  
Is there a way with a command line to disable GPU1 mining on Phoenixminer?
This mobo just have a DVI conector for monitor but I dont have a DVI monitor   it doesnt have HDMI Video conector integrated   neither i have a 6 o 8GB GPU  

Even if you're disconnect your monitor Windows will always take some videomemory from 1st GPU. Only way is integrated videocard or card with 6 or 8Gb. Or mine other algo on 1st GPU.

[caymanguy]

can someone explain to me why the miner does not boot after a boot without a monitor connected to the motherboard? I have H110m for vh-plus, I can't solve this ..

(opens the miner, but stops reading the DAG and only starts after connecting a monitor)

the problem is in the hardware

Hello, I need a little help with setting up a Phoenix miner.

I just switched from using a Claymore miner (3+ years) to Phoenix.

CFG:
win 10, IGPU enabled,
4 x sapphire 580 4gb, driver: 20.4.2
Phoenix.exe run as admin = yes, compute mode enabled.

Phoenix miner config:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

PhoenixMiner.exe -pool europe1.ethereum.miningpoolhub.com:20536 -wal SlyMining.RIG_01 -pass x -proto 2 -amd -acm -rvram -1 -mode 1 -tt -70

• 1st question:

How to disable every hardware tweaking from miner? Im using OverDriven tools and my rigs are all good, stable working for weeks and when i start Phoenix miner the GPU temperature goes to 75c°
So this is why i put -tt 70, to fan work on 70% const.
But i want to everything be configurate from overdrivenTool.

In Claymore my GPU's was working on 50-55c° with 50-60% fan speed, and when Temp falls bellow 50c° fan goes to 0%, and again starts to cooling the gpu when temp goes higer. I was satisfy with this and is it possible to have it on Phoenix miner?

Options to control overclocking and overvoltage in PM is the same as in CM. F.e. -cclock -1200 -mclock 2000.
Just read the readme file on the PM miner folder.
Don't be lazy, read it. Mining does not tolerate laziness.
If you didn't place any options to control clocks and voltages, PM wouldn't touch these parameters at all.

Thanks for answer mate, but looks like you didnt read my question?

I dont use overclocking and voltage controle via MINERS (ex. Claymore or Phoenix), i use it with OverDrivenTool and it works perfect for 3+ years.

My question was:

If i have only basic config in Phoenix miner, why does he control my fan speed and other overclocking settings? When i enter OverDrivenTools, the interface shows me current settings used by miner, and not the once i have choose.
I need help to turn this off, i want my miner cfg to be basic, only pool, wallet and worker name, other settings (Overclocking and etc) i will settup with OverDrivenTool, thats all

Also, I did read the readme file ofc, fast enough yeah, and one more time again, but probably will do it many times more
If u know the short story-answer, pls help.

If you don't use any controls of PM, it doesn't change any hardware config. Check your command lines.
Claymore works the same way.

this miner gives the best hash with my 5700 cards around 55 mhs at 1800 mem but its just too unstable
crashes the miner every day at least , team red is slower but 24 hrs now zero crash

[BogdanCo]

can someone explain to me why the miner does not boot after a boot without a monitor connected to the motherboard? I have H110m for vh-plus, I can't solve this ..

(opens the miner, but stops reading the DAG and only starts after connecting a monitor)

the problem is in the hardware

It's a general issue with the Gigabyte MB H110 chipset, a simple solution is to use a VGA dummy or switch to Linux.

Current ETC epoch is 363, and for the ETH it's 352... mining on Nicehash Platform...


On a miner with 4GB cards (the monitor is connected to the integrated video) the Phoenix Miner reports that it can no longer create pre-allocation of the DAG because of not enough VRAM... that's on epoch 363... the miner allocates 3.83GB for the current ETC DAG (as Nicehash currently is supplying ETC hashes), on GPU-Z or AfterBurner it's 3972MB allocated...

Why there is such a difference between the reported allocated DAG memory and the actual memory allocated? If I drop the miner, every card is using just 8MB for.... whatever.... why the difference when the miner is working?

I don't see how the Phoenix Miner will be able to mine under Windows until epoch 370+....

It's not nicehash problem. It's physically limitted for 4Gb GPU. You have to admit that buying 4Gb cards was wrong solution between 4Gb and 8Gb cards! Soon all 4Gb cards would be throw it in the trash for mining.
Such small savings have led to so such problems...

[mollov]

I never said it's a Nicehash problem in the first place...

So... this is your answer to my question? You don't know me, let alone talking trash about me.... go fly a kite...

When you have nothing to say, why do you care showing it to everybody??

if you use -tt Target Temperature it enables the fan control to hold this temp and earlier it was the same way fan control worked in the driver however new(after version 19 or so) amd drivers have a new way of controlling the fans now. so...
just do not touch -tt param if you want to control the temps in ovdnt profiles, just make sure you see what the driver supports and use 0.2.8 

[patthara74]

Got a problem when use in SMOS, I set core clock at 1120 but some rigs only down to 1167 or else.

[commandera]

PhoenixMiner is 0.65% and Ethermine 1% fees
A simple question that I need to answer.
there additional fees \ cost when I use SSL connection by PhoenixMiner ?

Short story answer is use Claymore  

I was using it for 3+ years, but 2days ago 4gb 580 and 570 sapphire stop working, not enough memory to create dag.
I still have working 4gb rigs on Claymore, but if i stop them, and restart only miner, it will not create DAG again,

Do u have solution for working 4gb rigs with Claymore? I have enabled IGPU, -eres 0 or 1 dont work anymore...

so...

so i tryed Phoenix, and it works...for 4GB - but even when i dont put any command line in miner_start (not even -tt), the new drivers are in control of my fan speed (but it doesnt works fine, 'cos all GPU temp's are 75c°)
Ill try to put fixed min and maxed speed lines for fan speed, maybe that will work...

or if anyone have better solution i'm listening

I don't see how the Phoenix Miner will be able to mine under Windows until epoch 370+....

OK, i did some benchmarks.... it will run until epoc 368 (miner allocated memory is 3.88GB, AfterBurner reported memory is 4012MB), included... 369 is a no go... is this a driver issue, so some other driver version might take less VRAM and allow going to epoch 370+?

I know Linux is a possible option, but want to stay on Win as long as possible...
