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

[tkachev]

Nanominer has nearly 15% of stale shares on pool stats, gminer is better and it still works on 4gb r9 290 at full speed.
Hope PhoenixMiner can be fixed to work again on r9 390, i dont ask for 290, not so much time left for then on eth.
I like his fan control in linux and ethman statistics so wait for update!

I would really love to see a screen shot of ANYONE that can pump out more than 30 MH/card on (12+ per rig) RX 580 cards and hash stable for more than 24 hrs. No matter what I try it just will not happen. As soon as I push to 30 or higher, the rig will start to crash. I used to tune individual cards and get higher hash rate but that function has been broken since forever ago. So I would really love to see if anyone out there is actually able to achieve this.

I appreciate your screen shot but it only shows your rig at 47 min. I was asking if anyone can show a rig running 30+ MH for more than 24 hr.


Side note: Did PM ever fix the problem with not being able to set cclock and mclock for individual cards?

[dext-r]

I have problem with miner. I have two rigs with 6xRX570 8gb nitro +, win 10, blokchain driver same bios on every card. Basicaly same two rigs. One is mining stable and around 31.5 mhs per card with -cvddc 900 -mclock 2200 -cclock 1150 . When I apply the voltage on second rig it goes down to 8 mhs after few minutes. If I dont put that it will mine ok but power goes to 1200w. If I mine with stock clock it goes to 25 mhs. Every other driver mines just 10 mhs. I use to mine with claymore and everything was fine and stable for 3 years. Is there a way to reduce voltage or something like that?

Update the driver to 20.11.1.

, when I do that it only mines 10mhs like I said

By new driver must be activate COMPUTE mode

[webshop32]

@PhoenixMiner I am recently experiencing a significant slowdown on my Radeon VII cards!

OS: Arch Linux
Driver: opencl-amd 19.30.934563-1 (which is on your 'good drivers' list I think)
PhoenixMiner version: 5.2e
Algorithm/coin: Ethash/Ethereum

I used to use PhoenixMiner 4.7c which worked great up until a few weeks ago when It would not start anymore citing some DAG allocation error (on a card with a 16GB framebuffer LoL). I then switched to 5.2e and everything was well again (same MH/s).

Today I went to check on the rig and the hashrates have dropped dramatically! I tried auto-tune etc, same result. I read somewhere here that PhoenixMiner is switching to another method to allocate the DAG due to 4GB coming up shortly? Maybe this new method kicked in recently and it is more compute heavy? I am sure you know that the Radeon VII is (the only?) consumer GPU that is actually core-limited instead of memory-limited when mining ethash.

Radeon VII used to do ~92 MH/s out of the box, now it barely reaches 80 MH/s. The rigs could run stable for many months without monitoring, so having to monitor and make multiple changes in past week has been a pain. I would rather not go through the hassle of switching to another miner.

still no fix for 5.3b running 8GB cards on ETH?

all my 4GB rigs are running fine, but 8GB wont mine

-61 error everywhere, tried -lidag -eres but no help

everything is real, it's just that each video card needs an individual approach to adjust the frequency and voltage. There are video cards that can be greatly overclocked and in reverse, in the screenshot the video cards are good in overclocking, the less fast video cards were given to a friend. Soon they will be working for three years, it is very important to blow them well so that they do not overheat (driver 19.7.5 all rx580)

Radeon VII used to do ~92 MH/s out of the box, now it barely reaches 80 MH/s.

Momentan solution is to restart miner every couple hours.

I faced same issue starting one month ago, it repeats 2-3 times every 24 hours, drops from 94,5MH each card to 78-82MH.

After 3 days of pissed off, I sold my entire rig based on 4x Radeon VII, and I bought 8x 5700XT to make a new rig, less power consumption, less heat dissipated, less noise, more MH, but more space too.

Much better efficiency for 5700XT, in my opinion, with modded bios id tbe best card for mining ETHASH.

SO , I`m using the last version of Phoenix miner (5.3b) and some blockchain drivers (17,4 - I think) for my AMD $X 470 . But I cannot undervolt my cards and they drain a lot of power from the wall . With almost 200w more than claymore used . How can I fix this ? Thanks

It' not possible to undervolt with old blockchain driver!

AB or miner can't do a sh*t to undervolt... and you can't use OverdriveNTool with old driver.

Solution:
1) update windows and use newer driver like 20.11.1
2) use SMOS

Thanks for answering . Tried the 20.11 driver and it mines with 9-10 mh so I switched back to the old driver  which does 29-30 Smiley Any update from Phoenix on this errors ? Thanks in advance

20.11.1 and any other graphic driver are not in compute mode by default! (blockchain driver is)
You must set every single GPU to compute mode using Radeon settings or all at once using little program like AMD-Compute-Switcher.exe

You are right about the stale shares of nanominer. But for some reason gminer is not producing an accepted share for any of my 390's under smos. It may be related to opencl version 18.20 or it needs root access, I don't know. I can't test now under hiveos, where the opencl is 19.20. Any suggestions?

I already tried with that little program , but maybe I need to restart the rig after I put them in compute mode . Gonna try again tommorow . Thanks for the tip

it was. Now rtx 3060TI best mining for eth. 63Mhs for 120w

If we apply the rule of 3 simples, I think 90Watts for 54,1MH is better than 120Watts for 63MH.

What is that rule ? if you dont know nothing.
I doubt that 5700 will stay stable at 90w giving 54mhs ok lets say it is stable at 90w giving you. Todays profit you will be making 1.96-0.2=1.76$ with 5700
And with 63mhs at 120w 2.29-0.27=2.02$. with 3060ti. as soon as prices go down 3060ti will be beast ethereum minng card
Instead writing something make little reasearch and calculation mhs watts,

yes i understand that it doesn matter 3060 still will be beating.if take ratio will be the same like this 5700 126w at the wall will be 1.96-0.3=1.69$ for 5700 and
for 3060 TI 168w 2.29-0.37=1.92$. Result is same because 90 vs 120 doesnt make much difference at the wall.

beleive me.. it's important! I'm mining since 2013 you don't have to focus on today's earnings. Now even a 390 is profitable

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

I had so. After installing the AMD drivers, the HIDDEN mspng file (maybe another) clung to the startup

1 - deleted from startup
2- deleted from the task scheduler
2a reboot
3- search and delete computer files
