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

[samurai1907]

Hi, i am using claymore miner , but it looks like i cant use it even for 8gb cards,developer seems died,  i want to use phoenix miner,
best thing about claymore is -straps command for my cards, does phoenix miner has it for amd rx470&570 cards,

Is there any way use claymore's straps cuz i dont want to flash my cards, every time i do that , i had crashes

hi i am new to ethereum mining and to PhoenixMiner can anyone explain why my 1060 6gb is only running at a reported 15.6MH/s when this chart https://www.kryptex.org/en/best-gpus-for-mining says it runs at 22MH/s? My GPU utilization is at 100% am I doing something wrong? I didnt see that the latest drivers from nvidia were bad.

Did you to go down on core and up on memory?

On linux i use -400/+600...for windows double those.  I get 23-24mhs per card limit to 80watts max.

no idea. I just started it after putting the info into the bin file under start_miner. Also I wasnt sure if this thread was active my b. I cant delete my topics as well weird. I run windows 10 with a stock settings on my 1060 does it make a huge difference with overclocking and undervolting? Are you refering to the in app GPU tuning parameter in PhoenixMiner?

thank you. on my pool's website it says the reported hashrate has stopped at 0 what do i do?

[batsonxl]

Who can help please tell me someone how to fix this error: it happens after 20hours mining.

Devfee : Could not connect to ethash pool us1-etc.ethermine.org:4444: An operation on a socket could not be performed because system lacked sufficient buffer space or because queue was full.

after that somtime miner not even able connect to pool until i make restart the rig. after that works all good Devfee also works. after 20hours mining again same thing. Please help good people.

[batsonxl]

@ Mr.Phoenix please check this out. it happens when Devfee tries to connect after 20 hours mining.

If the miner is showing 0 then you may have to try higher core and lower memory oc settings.  move core up and memory down 50 - 100 at a time until it stays mining.  Watch the temp on your card.   Max safe for nvidia is 80c...i prefer to be 60c.

Sounds like you got too much OC. Get low memory or increase voltage.

Hi , i got the same card...

RX 580 Saphire Nitro - try MOD BIOS
Driver: Adrenalin 2020 20.9.1 = ok
Miner: Phoenix 5.3b = ok

mclock: 2170 = 2100
cvddc: 850 = 875

That could give you 30MH

thats the thing, I didnt overclock my card at all at the effective hasrate went close to zero and the reported stayed at zero for several hours. the pool website was still active but my miner software reported a hasrate of 15 consistently so it was mining but not reporting it what could happen?

Thank you for posting your numbers, this helps me tune the card.

I could use some guidance please.

I downloaded the new PM 5.3b to mine ETC again with some of my AMD 470 4gb cards. I have a test rig up with Win10 and 20.4.2 drivers installed. I have two cards that are the same except one is 8Gb and the other 4Gb. The 8gb card works fine of course, however, the 4Gb card only finds invalid shares.

https://imgur.com/jZELw2P

Not sure if my image will show up or not but I tried to embed an image.

Any ideas why the 4Gb card only finds invalid shares? I even dropped the mem clocks on the 4Gb card and added more power to see if that would help and it did not. I am about to install SMOS to see if that helps, but would really like to run Win10 if possible.

Just installed PM with SMOS and it is doing the same thing.

[BeefyBitcoinBoy]

Phoenix,

Just an update on this issue:  v5.3b seems to be moving in the right direction - all of my GPUs mine, now, but they each see about 18MH less hashrate on v5.3b versus what I still get on v5.0e.  Again, with this version, downgrading to v5.0e resolves the issue without rebooting.  If it's helpful, the starting hashrate for v5.3b during autotuning is only about half of what it is in v5.0e.  I hope this helps.

I wanted to report an issue I ran into on v5.2e for mixed-gen ETH mining on one XFX RX 5700 8GB + one XFX RX 480 8GB + one MSI RX 480 8GB on Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS (via minerstatOS) with amdgpu-pro v19.30 drivers.  When I upgraded to v5.2e, I saw my RX 5700 take approximately an hour to build its DAG file, and then yield 0 hashrate, and the two RX 480s only produced about a third of their normal hashrate.  I previously saw the same behavior with all PhoenixMiner v5.1x versions, as well.

Rolling back to v5.0e immediately resolves the issue without a reboot.  I have used a few versions of the PhoenixMiner for about ten months on this mixed-gen rig without issue, so this has been something introduced after v5.0e.  In case it's any help, I am including a few log excerpts, though I never saw any suspicious messages or error logs to report.

v5.2e log (note the miner uptime versus the DAG generation progress)
