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

Is the -daglim can be also use on nVidia GPUs? or it's just for AMD card with 4gb memory?

I just trying to fix the drop in hashrate with nVidia GPUs. The reason that I see from the drop in hashrate is because of the dag epoch.

1 hour in and wow, switching from claymore to phoenix was a breeze. Almost a copy and paste affair. I mean, gotta setup your powershell:startup and paste in some new info but it was super simple and so far, looking good.
I would've never switched but, for whatever reasons, the devs behind claymore must not have written working miner for the DAG increase the other morning(it was a day ago i think).

Just wanted to say thanks

*Rig is running 1 rx580 8g and 7 1060 6Gb cards at a solid 185mH. The 1060s have all been going for 3 years straight by the way. Hardly any failures since i switched to using a rack server type 12v supply. Also, they're $25! super efficient and very very powerful

Do you guys still mining with rx470?
Planning to rebuild this rig. I want to know if still worth mining with rx470.

If someone still mining with this cards can you share your power consumption. Thanks.

got a strange prob on my personal computer and one of my rigs. after a day or two teamviewer goes offline (but miner still works for half a day) and in the end this error message appear An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full. Windows 10 latest build drivers: 18.12 and 18.6 . systems have sufficient vram . any suggestions?

Hello, enter the Device Manager: Network Adapters and if you have this (WAN Miniport) then disable them all and restart your computer. Then verify that they are really disabled.
You must also verify with HWiNFO64 that you do not have memory errors in the GPUS, if you have them, just lower the memory clock until you eliminate them. I had that glitch and managed to fix it with these 2 options.
Excuse my bad english  

You are right !! opened device manager and had like 8!! wan miniports ,disabled them all restarted and none of it even appears now, that's for stage 1, for stage 2 if problem still there i will lower the mem clock. Thank you mate for your advice!!!

3060 Ti here - works well, unless...

- I set max overclock at start (only incorrect shares are generated - I need to start lower and increase)
- Epoch changes (same result as above)

Please fix.

happens to me as well (RTX3070), I thought it was a bug on the driver or the bios, I was updating/flashing for 2 hours before figured what you just said lol

Interesting.. thanks for reporting this.. did you try any other miner see if the same issue persists?
so it is not a driver issue, it is a general rtx 3000 series issue

If I start on +1200 mem clock I can survive  but I still get bunch of invalid shares ,  if i start under +1000mem clock and go up I get no invalid shares even up to 1500+for now I start them at +900 and go up to +1200 since you never know when the Epoch change happens and the whole thing goes down if you have it set above +1250 or so memory clock




I have an MSI and a Zotac  3060 ti ,   Zotac runs hotter and faster , but more prone to invalid shares, same story as above applies to both

I get 59-60 MH on the 900+ mem
and can get close to 64 MH if I go up to +1500 and give it some  power like 66% to 68%

Here's what I did,
reset every oc settings to stock
start the miner
wait it to load the dag file and everything
let it run for 2-3 minutes
crank the memory oc +1500 in one go

never got invalid shares until it loads the new dag then the issue comes back
hope this help

that is not a solution..
that is exactly what we are all saying.

you never know the epoch change time  and don't want to be by the miner to check it for that.
Perhaps a new parameter to temporarily change the mem clock before the epoch change  in phonexminer would fix this.

I didn't know this method has been posted before, I kinda figured all this out on my own lol.
I'm not saying this is the solution by any means, but at least I got it running pretty stable for quite a while, which is better than just start the miner and it just pukes invalid shares everywhere.
like you said, we will have to wait for either the dev or the driver to be fixed or something.

Rig with 5 rx 5700 xt with settings vram clock speed 1800 to 1810, core 1300 to 1350 MHz and voltage 725 to 800 mv , win 10, amd driver ver 20.4.2. Test it at f2pool, ethermine and nicehase. With teamredminer had no problem at all, no problem at all for 5 days continuously. With phoenix miner 5.4c and 5.3b I had the same problem, when the phoenix was starting after a while (from 1 or 2 min to few hours) 1 or 2 gpus they showed 0 mh while the phoenix continued mining with the other gpus without any message and the volt from the gpu that shows 0 Mh drops to 20 watt at the software and about –100 from the wall.
Any idea why it does this and how I can fix it?

is there a way to be notified by email or something when invalid shares go above certain percentage?

would be a great feature

[foxy93]

Hi! So I got a problem on Linux. After update (and on old version too). My minner suddenly start to drop cards one by one. Until it see only 3 of them.
When I do hard reboot is see all 8 again, but then process repeat.

Its 4GB RX 480. I am using latest version but already tried everything from 5.1 till latest.
Also, tried to low down core Core MHZ and Memory MHZ  - didn't help.

Feels like it start dropping card when it's try to autotune, but setting of -gt parametr, also didn't work

Any help here?

Do you know how to setup to bi notified when worker is offline?

yes I have an idea how you can fix it - stick with your teamredminer - continuously.

im having trouble when mining on linux with 20.10 drivers on 5700xt. TRM works normal but wht i start your miner i get

Last week I have moved from claymore to phoenix, so is there a way to run straps or some similarl command to "-strap POL8E8@2250"

no, but I am more concerned about getting invalid shares as a high rate due to a mess up on OC or a new EPOCh.

hello can you give me your oc parameters for 1060 6Gb tdp cclok mclok thank you

No problem.I use Afterburner. Currently my zotac 1060 6gb cards are :   
Power:    65
CPU:       55
Memory: 800

There are a couple cards that can't do 800 memory OC. so a couple are, around 650. I used to have 8 total 1060s, all identical and for a couple years they could handle 850 mem stable.
I keep a box fan on my rig, on low, barely draws any power. Keeps my hottest card below 61. Most are 55 to 57.
Hope this helps.

Of course you can mine with RX 470.   Mine are doing 30 MH/s.  They are the Sapphire variant with Samsung 8Gb.

yes I have an idea how you can fix it - stick with your teamredminer - continuously.

The thing is that with the same settings and the same watts from the wall, the phoenix has 55.5 mh on each card and the teamred has 54 to 54.3. I have seen that what the miners report in software is also reported in the pools. 1 to 1.5 mh per cart per day for 5 gpu may not say much, but over time it is a significant difference. So if I manage to stabilize phoenix it would be good. Of course I will prefer stability from the few mh above.
So anyone some idea?
