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

[brooklynite1]

Do you guys know what will be the optimal set of parameters for a RTX-3090 mining ETH?

I dont but I know how you can increase your hashrate by 60%:

1. Sell the 3090 for $2500
2. Buy 2 x 3080s for $2500
3. Watch your hashrate go from 119 to 190 (60% increase for free)
4. Enjoy much higher resale value in 3 years for 2x3080 vs 1x3090

Not trying to be smart, just letting you know the reality. 3090 is not an ideal card for mining for its street cost and you should sell it while it trades for over $2500 still:

I am not here to debate about what is the best mining solution! I do have an spear rtx3090 that is not fully utilize. So going back to my original question! what will be the optimal set of parameters for a RTX-3090 mining ETH?

Here you go:
https://www.nicehash.com/blog/post/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3090-mining-hashrate

Are you joking or what? I am asking about the Phoenix parameters! I am not using NiceCrap!

Sorry I thought you need the OC settings which impact your mining. That is what I understood when you said "Optimal". Other settings in Phoenix do different things, but rarely impact speed. For example they show a time stamp or stop logging which fills the hard drive, or pausing after an error so you can see what happened and why it crashed, or set -straps 2 which I use for my 1080Ti. None of these are intended to Optimize your mining, just gives you more information. Maybe helps you set overclocking in the bat file so you dont have to manually do it in MSI.

To optimize your speed to 120, If you have MSI Afterburner, that link even shows you a screen shot. I think you can also set the parameters using Phoenixminer - type settings but I personally dont do that, I just use MSI since I only have a few miners and I can manually do it.

From that website:
120 MH/s with a
+1350 memory clock
and a 100% power limit
GPU is consuming 300W of power.
If the power limit is lowered, the hash rates starts to drop dramatically.

I do have my board OC and is stable already the OC is not what I am after! I am after the optimal set of "PhoenixMiner" set of parameters

You are not getting it. Almost none of those 100s of settings you see in the first post, impact your mining speed nor they optimize anything for you excep for OC and memory clock which I dont use (I use MSI).

So what do you mean by "Optimal" ? The settings are for "settings" just read them. There is nothing optimal about it. I gave you a whole bunch of examples. Here is another one, if you have 4 cards and you want settings only impacting 3 cars then you can say -gpus 123 so card number 4 is not impacted. You can have it show timestamp so if it freezes you can see when the last time stamp is, otherwise you will have no clue when it froze unless you look at your pool.

So define OPTIMAL.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but ive just started mining and im wondering how will i know if the crpyto goes into my wallet.Im mining ethereum via phoenix and ive linked my ether recieve code with it.

[User_Shmuser]

Has anyone tried mining with Polaris cards on new 5.11 kernel?

There are clearly some major fixes in that one because ZeroRPM fan finally works right out of the box, I WAS SHOCKED.

As for the mining though, all of the threads except for GPU0 are unresponsive. Is there something I should alter in the config or should I just wait for the new release?

[Bagge6]

Can I start up the mining rig by just touching the "power button" pins with some electricity conducting object?

[buraz11]

yes

Is the wallet address associated with a mining pool? You can't mine directly to an offline wallet unless you've set up a solo mining node and it would likely take years or decades before you got lucky enough to solve a block. You need to join a mining pool which allows you to participate just by submitting shares and then share in the blocks solved by the pool. Find a pool, setup an account there, and follow the instructions for how to connect. The PM Readme.txt has information on the different mining pools and how to connect. There are a lot of choices, I'm personally at miningpoolhub.com

Thanks for the reply.No it is not associated.Ive already set that up i think and im mining i think.Im currently at 193/0/0 im not really sure what that means.Where do i see how much progress ive made and how do i store my cryptocurrency?

Anyone seeing issues with the GPU fan speeds not being picked up?

I thought the -tt 0 stopped the software from seeking out the fan speeds.

Does anyone know or have experience with amd w7100 firepro cards or something similar? I'm having an issue where I'm getting about half my total speed or less than what's being reported for the card in the miner.
I have x4 running on nicehash and each one does almost 42mh, total speed in stats is around 167-170 but accepted speed is in the range of 50-80. Any ideas as to what is the cause of this? There's less than 1% rejected shares as well.

What's in your .bat file?
Does your -pool and -wal values are both set by you?
If yes, go to your pool site and login. Some pool use your wallet address as login.
If not, look for some eth pool and follow the tutorial (every pool site have one, i think) to get the -pool address.
On the first page you can find some popular pool recomendations (prefer SSL one, if possible).

Hi , What are the overlock values ​​for the XFX Speedster FAST 319 RX 6800 ( RX-68XLALBD9) card? Anyone using this card without any problem?

[anatolikostis]

PhoenixMiner 5.5d - hotfix available


-Increased hashrate on ETHhash by an average of 10%
-Increased hashrate on ETCHash by an average of 7%

OMG, "virus-sharing" bots are attacking the phoenixminer thread  
IGNORE!

Well - i had a chance to test RTX 3060 12GB (Palit Dual)

DaggerHashimoto - 24.8 MH/s (Power 141W)
So there is really nerf for ETHash algos (tested also with Gminer and NBminer)... sad, but other coins are untouched

Just info about other algos:

PowerLimit to 100pct to see basic wattage during mining
Core: no overclock
Memory: +1000

Gminer 2.45
Zhash (144,5) - 64.9 Sol/s (Power 166W)
(miniZ 66 Sol/s)
GrinCuckatoo - 1.24 G/s (Power 169W)
CuckooCycle - 7.19 G/s (Power 162W)
Cuckatoo32 - 0.47 G/s (Power 169W)
KawPow - 23.7 MH/s (Power 167W)
BeamV3 - 22.3 Sol/s (Power 169W)
(miniZ 23.4 Sol/s)

TRex 0.19.11
Octopus - 44.91 MH/s

Happy Mining to all

How can I disable one or more AMD GPUs when starting the miner? I also use Phoenix Miner on my rig
Help me please

Look for Mining options on the first page.

I have 3 gpu .. I have to write the command line... In the config.txt file need to disable GPU 1 and GPU 2. The GP3 alone must work.
Please help... Can you give me the command line example?
how should i write it?
The pool is etherminer.org

octopus looks good.

You should be able to get some more with slight core oc:

And ETHash should burn less power.

If you are not using HiveOS, do yourself a favor and use it. Much more stable than using Windows.
