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

[sergioheadache]

actually they can demonstrate, they checked the bios and see that it was flashed for mining
and also, in this store where i bought they had a little text that say for warranty is for "normal home use" (its actually a bad translation) but you get the point.

anyways, if you dont get them replaced or fixed, i would buy them for parts.
PM me it it will be relevant.

Curious, which country are you from?
In this case I would choose gpus that do not need to change BIOS for good results.

Im from Israel

No need to flash bios for mining (just if you want to squeeze last 0,x MH from it, in my opinion doesn't worth the risk), also if the card is dead, bios is useless. I don't think they desolder bios for checking it if was flashed or not, also if they do that, you can blame them for flashed intentionately that bios/or hardware modiification especially for voiding warranty. Is your word against they word. I don't know they are accreditate to desolder bios chip or make hardware modification (as seller or service, it they are not official AMD), any hardware modification will void automatically warranty. I think important is to have intact AMD sticker on screew.

flashing bios is not only for 0.xMH, there are many more reasons

and in my case, card was not completely dead, i was working but crashing all the time, so they could check the bios.
it is also my fault for not flashing back to original - i was young and stupid back then LOL

The new features in this release are:

• Added support for AMD RX5500 cards
• Added support for the latest AMD Windows drivers 19.12.3
• Fixed the problem with loading NVML library with the latest Nvidia drivers
• Fixed a problem that was introduced in 4.8c causing mismatching of the cards when using more than one value in -cclock or any other command-line argument with more than one value (i.e. when using different values for each card)
• Added an HTML version of the documentation for better navigation and readability

Please let us know if you have any problems or questions related to PhoenixMiner 4.9b.

[zertor]

Super, works fine.

I get:

GPU1: unable to get fan speed - Not Supported (3)

It's expected message, because my card don't have such feature,
but is it possible to suppress it? [turn it off] (its annoying to appear constantly)
or to appear one time only while initialization.

Didn't fixed a bug

Code:

Eth: Failed to submit hashrate: Exception -32601 : METHOD_NOT_FOUND: The method
being requested is not available on this server: the method eth_submitHashrate d
oes not exist/is not available

Proper name "eth_submitHashRate" now i guess.

[VasilyS]

4.8c didn't work on my AMD rigs, there were constant crashes. I used 4.8b as more stable version. After few hours of checking 4.9b looks good. Frankly, there is no changes in hashrate in comparison with previous versions.

did you try updating the graphics driver to the latest version?
then you may not have constant crashes like you have in 4.8c version

Yes, I tried. Phoenix said that it was a bag with multiGPU system with different overclock settings.

I've tried 4.9b now with driver 19.12.3 and it says unknown openCL driver and hangs when mining about 15 seconds (totaly freeze, cut the power is the only solution)
Reverted back to 19.9.2 driver and it mines at about 20 minutes, then hang and reboots itself. About 0,3% better hashrate than 4.7c (cant use 4.8c at all)

No logging.

[skinnyfalcon]

Yes, I tried. Phoenix said that it was a bag with multiGPU system with different overclock settings.

Has anyone addressed this issue? I have AMD 19.12.2 and phoenix 4.9b, random crashes still pop up frequently.
Most people have multi GPU systems with different OC setting for max hash.

as with the previous post taken as reference
try downgrading the driver version to the version
it may resolve the issue with no impact on hash rate

The crash seems completely random, anywhere from 3 to 10 min, most of the time the system will restart and the miner will run from autostart, but sometimes the miner just won't run even after the system restart. There are no error messages, I have checked all log files and everything just seem to be running normal than "CRASH", system restart. My rig was running without a hiccup for weeks on end somewhere before the 4.8 release, now it can't even stay on for more than 10 minute at a time.

The size of DAG allways increase steps by 8Mb every time. And every time when it grows up it's need more vmemory.
And you must remember that all equipment wears. PSU, GPU chips, vmemory chips... All these equip can degradate with time cause to 24/7 work on close to 100% using.
Try to raise voltages on GPU's and mvddc a bit and check.

Is is normal to have different hashrate for eth and etc? Nvidia gpus. Difference is about 2.5% more when mining ethereum. 4.8c version.

because of different DAG size.

Try to make autotune both on one and another. I think best -gt parameters will differ.
