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

[PostboxPretzel]

anyone getting a Trickbot!ml warning from 6.2?.. normally it just flags the .exe and I can bypass it but this one is flagging different (I did grab the zip from the first post)

Shows clean in Virustotal for both Linux:

And Windows 6.2C:

ok good, thank you, just weird

How is currently Phoenixminer with full LHR unlock?

I'm using Phoenix with 2 old Vega 56 and 1 RX470, and I just ordered a 3060 Ti (finally near MSRP + taxes) to replace one of the Vegas.

I really like Phoenix, on par with best miners with Vega 56 and low dev fee, I don't want to change miner when I get the 3060 Ti. What are the best Nvidia drivers to use?

I see reports for NB, Nicehash miner, LOL miner, but not for Phoenix with Nvidia.

The next version is ready as a release candidate: PhoenixMiner 6.2c.




The new features in this release are:

• Fixed a crash with Nvidia cards on some older drivers (e.g. 460.79, and 460.89). If PhoenixMiner crashes or exits while showing Initializing NVML... try the new command line parameter -nvmalt

Hey man, still got same error here:
2022.05.09:15:29:12.998: main NVAPI error in NvapiWrapper.c:355 : -6

any suggestions?

Have you tried -nvmalt?

Hello,

For mining ETH-Ton, is the recommended drivers for AMD still as listed on first page? (Validated support for AMD Windows drivers 22.4.2) I see, from beta 6.3b release post, (Validated support for the latest AMD Windows drivers up to 21.11.2). I have 21.11.3 installed. Will this driver be ok? Or should I upgrade to 22.4.2?

As for Nvidia, will 512.15 work for windows 10 64bit pro?

Cheers

21.11.3 better

The person you are answering too is having you on. There is NO PhoenixMiner 6.3b beta!

Here is a LHR unlocker that actually works. Unlock full hashrate on NVIDIA LHR cards.

Works pretty good together with the PhoenixMiner

Thanks man. I suspected as much. Downloaded and scanned but no flags? Sus... deleted!

Windows gives many security warnings after downloading latest version PhoenixMiner_6.2c_Windows from first side in this thread.
is this normal behaviour?

It is normal when a miner package triggers AntiVirus software.

It is dangerous when a miner package comes through without any flags. What this usually means is the Virus creator is trying to get you run the script at least once.

Be suspicious always. Pheonix miner does not seem to have any "official" activity going on since 6.2c.

Radeon Driver version 22.5.1 is out, hows PM 6.2c goes with it? I like having my drivers updated since I don't just mine with my rig.

[miner29]

So many compromised account posting malware links.  Only get from OP PhoenixMiner all other posters of links for this software are linking to malware.  Do not dl from those idiots.

The new beta version is ready. It is mostly a bugfix release, the more significant upgrades are coming next month. You can download PhoenixMiner 6.3b from here:

WARNING !!!
Fake links, PM does not distibute through Github... and there is no version 6.3b (released or beta).
Only download from the links in the post on Page 1 of this disscusion.

The new beta version is ready. It is mostly a bugfix release, the more significant upgrades are coming next month. You can download PhoenixMiner 6.3b from here:

The new features in this release are:

• Full LHR disable mode -lhrdis <n>  1 - yes (default), 0 - no

• RTX 3060 LHR       ~ 50 MH/s
• RTX 3060 Ti LHR       ~ 60 MH/s
• RTX 3070 LHR       ~ 60 MH/s
• RTX 3070 Ti LHR       ~ 81 MH/s
• RTX 3080 10GB LHR   ~ 98 MH/s
• RTX 3080 Ti LHR       ~ 120 MH/s

That's pretty exciting for PhoenixMiner users.  Interesting to watch as one of these software miners after another adds Full LHR disable mode.  I wonder if this was spurred by Nvidia leaking information on how to do it, or if it was just one user "cracking" the code on how to do it and then releasing it through open source software so that other developers could assimilate it into their own productions.  I haven't read exactly where it came from, only that Nicehash supposedly was the first to have it.  Anyway, glad to see it available in another release and I hope the beta testing goes well.

I hope you realize that you are responding to a hacked account that hasn't posting anything since 2017 and now trying to spread a virus.

[Lafu]

I cut out the download links from the quote for that reason but didn't realize the information itself was false until checking the real download link so my bad for jumping the gun a bit.  It does appear that PhoenixMiner does not yet support full LHR unlock and I hope that nobody ever tries to download from links that aren't from the official account or download site as a rule of thumb.  Thanks for also making this clear that the quoted account is an attempted scammer.

Just take a look here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5182222.msg60160311#msg60160311
They have started again posting Fake links the last days and week and i also report them when i see them , just hit the report button and they get deleted.
The Github Fake links changing mostly every 2-4 days , i report them on github also .

PM is running fine with 22.5.1, no problem with it not working with the new drivers.

Thats just where i took out my wallet address. I restarted the rig yesterday to find one of the 6 cards was not showing. I stripped it down and changed one power cable to one card that looked slightly dicoloured and 6 cards showed. I've just been and done exactly what i spent 2 hours doing yesterday but now it's working. Maybe it just wanted a day off

Hello. I'm having a problem. I downloaded Phoenix 6.2c for Windows as i always do from the link in the first page of this thread, and the trojan AndroidOs/multiverze infected my computer. I think it is some kind of ransomware. After i rebooted My PC i couldnt even log in.
