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

[dejan_p]

two rigs stopped working today, sapphire nitro+ 8gb

GPU2: Free VRAM: 7.950 GB; used: 0.050 GB
GPU2: Disabling DAG pre-allocation (not enough VRAM)
GPU2: Allocating DAG for epoch #379 (3.96) GB
GPU2: Allocating buffers failed with: clCreateBuffer (-61).

win7 64bit, blockchain beta drivers
restored original bios, installed 20.4.2., same thing
let us know if you manage to fix it, thanks

how much virtual ram?
test another miner like teamred and if it is run, let us know and we look again.
add -eres 0 for test

change os to win10.

32-50gb virtual ram
teamred works

win10 is an option  - just wanted to let you know, thanks

  Hawaii GPUs need modified kernels to continue working with the larger DAGs, we just haven't had the time to make it. For now you can use -clkernel 0 to use the generic kernels - they will be slower, and you also should set -mi 10 or -mi 11 to decrease the stale shares. Another option is to mine ETC, where the DAG is much smaller but with the current profitability you are probably better with mining ETH with generic kernels.

If this is true then why gminer or nanominer still works on my R9 390 and without any speed reduction (30mh/s) on ETH?

Thanks, man, you saved me from mining ETC with these cards! I've spent the entire day and before that more days looking for a miner that can work with all my 390's for ETH with no luck on smos. The miners either don't load DAG on some cards, or simply won't hash. Gminer for example was hashing at full speed but with 0 accepted shares. For some reason I've missed only nanominer but after reading your post I decided to give it a try. For my surprise it worked well for all my 390's. My internet is dropping too much today and I can't judge how many are the stale shares, but it seems ok. I don't know if giving a root access will make the miners work and recognize the cards. The other problem is that with a bios mod with 150-200mV undervolt the cards crash with all miners except Claymore. If I put the default clocks in the OC tables somehow the clocks lower a bit, the hash drops with 1-2 Mh, but the cards are stable and don't hang. May be a lame solution, but these cards are power hungry with 330W from the wall and need that undervolt. After the bios mod the consumption drops to 220-230W, may be even less. I am not sure, since I didn't measure the consumption of the MB with a CPU load without the cards. Anyway, hopefully phoenixminer developers soon will fix the issue with these cards.

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.

Hi,

I'm really struggling here.

Was using Claymore until this morning, when it died...and used the opportunity to swap over to PhoenixMiner.
Using the same settings hasn't been so simple.
My MH/s on my RX580's have dropped from a stable 32Mh/s@77W to 19Mh/s.

My setup:
2x RX580 + 2x GTX 1070
Windows 10
PhoenixMiner 5.3b
AMD driver 20.4.2 (with compute)
Stock GPU BIOS

I've tried everything to get an increased speed:

Re-install drivers
Using OverDriveNTool to alter AMD Card settings (this is what I used with Claymore)
Using PhoenixMiner to alter AMD Card Settings
read the readme and tried several options (-vmr, -gt etc.) - no improvement
tried autotune
played with the strap, rxboost etc...

I feel it is PhoenixMiner not applying the correct strap. It's probably a bit more complicated as I have the 2 NVIDIA cards there.
The NVIDIA cards are running about 1MH/s slower, but I can live with that for now.

On claymore my settings were:
-epsw x -eres 0 -strap POL8H1,POL8H3,POL8H1,POL8H3,1,1 -rxboost 21 -sintensity 75 -mode 1 -mport 0 -tstop 75 -tt 60 -fanmin 20 -fanmax 85 -wd 1 -r 0 -ftime 5

On PhoenixMiner they are:
-coin etc -straps 1 -vmr 33 -tstop 75 -tt 60 -fanmin 20 -fanmax 85 -wdog 1 -rmode 1 -acm  - Getting 19.5 Mh/s

I also tried this: (setting a '0' for my NVIDIA cards so not to alter their mclock etc.)
-coin etc -straps 1 -nvmem 1 -tstop 75 -tt 60 -fanmin 20 -fanmax 85 -wdog 1 -rmode 1 -acm -cclock 0,1200,1175,0,1200,1175 -mvddc 0,850,850,0,850,850 -mclock 0,2150,2125,0,2150,2125 -cvddc 0,850,850,0,850,850 - Getting 20.2 Mh/s

Does anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

Hy,

I'm new at Phoenix, Hashrate is lower than on claymore but it works. So I try for dual mining, but didn't get a hashrate on the secand coin.
Copy the command line from the readme for dual mining and added my adresses.
Any tips, thx

What are you trying to dual mine....some coins like zil only mine for a short period every few hours.

Hi,

Blake2s

ETH on ethermine.org ETH, Blake2s on Nicehash:
      PhoenixMiner.exe -pool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555 -pool2 ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555 -wal YourEthWalletAddress.WorkerName -proto 3 -dpool blake2s.eu.nicehash.com:3361 -dwal YourBtcWalletAddress -dcoin blake2s

B2S New Jobs getting in but speed is always zero. ETH Speed is on 39MH/s on vega 56, with claymore it was 41.That's OK for me and it looks stable.
thx

Wondering if its NH that is giving the issue.  Have you tried a Black2s pool instead of NH?  Even if just to confirm/deny its NH.
  
As for Vega 56 on PM im getting 47.76mhs on one and 49.21mhs  on another.  (first one is a rev 1 vega but both are air boost).  Wattage is around 0.812mv so about 115watts
 core 1003 / mem 940 on mmpos

could you share full details on your settings?

Thats the settings...stock cards (vega56 msi air boost blower cards) core 1003 / mem 940 / 812 mv .... using mmpos fans are at 50% cause these are older dirty cards...one is hynix one is samsung memory and because they are vegas...trm....  for all my other amds i run PM but vegas...they are “different”.  Using Ethos i couldnt have them in a rig with 5XX series or it would not mine...it was either vegas or 5xx series not both.  MMPOS doest have that issue.

Are you kidding? My 570's work with 31.7-31.9 Mh, and 580's with 32.2-32.4 Mh for 3 years without issues. They are on 12 card rigs which used to work with windows, now with smos. Only the last night the 4Gb cards hanged during the epoch change but with a reboot they worked well again.  On my main computer with windows 10, the 580 8Gb card is hashing with 32.220 with claymore straps and -rxboost 1. I raised only the mem clock to 2100. I could raise it to 2170 and I will get another 0.300 Mh, but I prefer not to, so that I can use the computer freely and watch videos with no issues.

Hello developer, I'm Claymore switching over. Why is the phoneixMiner parameter code only 26MH /s?I used to use Claymore, 30MH /s, thank you

Anyone else experience a 2 mhs drop in their rigs?  I have 2 RX5700 rigs,  no change in OC or UV and both dropped approximately 2 mhs.  Is this just due to Epoch growing?

[neogeo]

On my 5700 XT rigs i don't have any hashrate drop on 5.3b version...

[btctradingonline]

After a few hours mining my second GPU stops mining and I see 0.000 MH/s with the statement "wdog GPU2 not responding" and  "wdog Thread(s) not responding. Restarting."
But nothing happens.

I am not sure how to resolve this issue so I am looking for ideas here.
Below are the details of my set up.

thanks

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
cclock: 1170 = 1150
mclock: 2170 = 2100
cvddc: 850 = 875
mvddc: 850 = 875
Fan: 35

That could give you 30MH

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

can you give the detail config for 5700xt, tks

On my 5700 XT rigs i don't have any hashrate drop on 5.3b version...

it dropped .1 for sure.

Hi, I don’t know if you saw my post earlier? #6451

How are you modding the bios? With OverDriveNTool, afterburner or hard coding with a bios change?

Thanks.

Rig 12+ GPU`s is more like an art, than mining, so it`s hard to find guys like that.

Personally, i`ve got 1x11x580, 1x16GPUs (NV and 1xAMD) and rest like 6-8GPUs per rig witch i like less

EDIT:
Forgot about my 15GPUs[RX 580 × 11,P106-100 × 2,RX 570 × 1,GTX 1070 Ti × 1] Rig :>

[catfish78]

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

Any idea how to resolve this?

I get it on ethermine / sparkpool / nanopool

without your commandline, your os, what cards, and so on, no one can help you.

Miner doesn't work on nonencrypted port 4444. Use ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555

Yes and without your commandline no one can help you.
