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

[Shaddyr]

Most mining software has dropped support for very old cards where it just isnt reasonable to expect miners to use. Ethminer is opensource and supports just about all cards.  There just arent very many Titan 6gb these days.

that's right. But strange thing - phoenix 5.5c can mine GT770 (cuda 3.0) with no error at 2-3MH. My Titan is corupted? Games going ok..

[Ursul0]

After a while I have found the problem... SATA power for the risers... is not a good combo.. So after changing those the rig was stable..
Now with replacing some of the cards for newer ones we have new challenges... ;-)  Thanks for the support.. really appreciated.

Sata raisers are better than molex raisers (sata power connectors usually have much less issues with bad connectivity than molex) and are good for pcibus power hungry polaris refs

@Shaddyr did you try claymore miner? it always had good support of older amd generations.
Also you may need to install some very old driver that may not even be not supported in recent winX builds ...

Dear PhoenixMiner!
Will the -mt 1 option work in the next update (Linux)?

Thanks Andrew.

21.3.1 has been confirmed to not work with PhoenixMiner and a fix is expected in the next version(but no ETA has been stated yet).

works with a key

-clKernel 0

Try updating the drivers to Radeon Software 21.1.1 and see if that helps.   I've seen Windows updates that revert the drivers and break some things.   Running the Radeon Software software may even say you have the wrong driver version when that happens.   

I'd suggest getting a replacement power supply.   Many people don't realize that power supplies can degrade over time, and if the load is high, they will degrade faster than if you give yourself a lot of extra room.   If you add up the power draw across all of your cards, then add 200W for the rest of the system overhead, you then want an extra 200W on top of that to play it safe(so spikes don't pull more than the power supply can handle).   

Hi,

I've been mining for a few months now with no errors. All of a sudden I'm getting a clSetKernelArg (-48) error...see below:

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you.

Its possible but I have the cards distributed over 2 power supplies. Total draw is 550w and the power supplies are rated at 1600w. So I've never been close to their limits. I'm really stuck!

You were right. Updates turned off but somehow Microsoft had performed an update which included driver updates for AMD and NVIDIA. I was lucky and a 'restore to previous point' process worked and I'm back up and running. Thanks for the help!

yes I did. Showing error "wrong data from pool".

@PhoenixMiner, when next version? We waiting 21.3.1 support!

seriously man, do you have some sort of fetish for new drivers? what are your expectations?

Man, AMD in 21.3.1 adding support for 6700! And I just want to PM work with latest driver. Phoenix already working on new version. So we just waiting...

[UnclWish]

Meanwhile, AMD released 21.3.2 driver with fixes for 6700 cards.

Meanwhile, AMD released 21.3.2 driver with fixes for 6700 cards.

Can't mine properly yet with it on my RX 6800 rig, unfortunately.

I've rolled back to the Feb drivers, just under 1% rejected rate and stable now for 2 days running (441 MH/s and 904 watts on 7 GPUs).  I typically reboot on the 48th hour of uptime on Windows so I'm satisfied with the results.

I can't wait for proper hashrates for 6800's on PM + linux. I could probably let the rig run for a couple of months without needing to even look at it. 

[UnclWish]

Meanwhile, AMD released 21.3.2 driver with fixes for 6700 cards.

Would you recommand to upgrade AMD drivers to 21.3.2 for 6700 xt ?

So far I can't really mine with PhoenixMiner as I have around 20-25% rejected shares

No, I didn't recommend them just now. We need wait till PM updates miner to support new drivers.

Hi I just started mining a few days ago. I’m curious about this line that appears in the command prompt that says ‘GPUs Power: 22 Mh/s’

Can I confirm that it only refers to the power consumed by the GPU only?
What are some methods to monitor the power consumption of my entire rig?

I put all of my primary machines on a UPS(battery backup), so I see the power draw of everything that is on the battery+surge side.   A 1500VA UPS will also keep those momentary power blips and dips from causing any system from restarting.    Ryzen 9 3900X combined with a single Radeon 6800(slightly overclocked), monitor, router, cable modem has it at around 370W of power draw when mining.   Gaming pulls a bit more and puts it into the 450W range for power draw for my system for example.   Plenty of room to expand.

I am using a ryzen 5 3600 with a single rtx 3060 OC as well. i guess my power draw stands lower or around 370W as well. thanks for the input

Can someone with a bit more computer savvy ness tell me why with all the resources we have in this world are  these scammers still online?   Is this the ole learn by mistakes. Keep people busy or do we Goto the heart of the issue.  Some people have an enormous amount of tolerance or the world is given too much Xanax and no one gives a f anymore.  Is this an effort to keep people busy (mods) or is it an issue that can’t be solved.  Or is it that too much of the worlds narratives thrive because of these folks (keeps money flowing).  What is it that compels people to continue with these scams.  I know it’s lack of accountability.  Fines aren’t ever large enough to the amount scammed. So it continues basically unabated

Noob/bot accounts karma is a dish best served on a seat of nails out in the artic cold.  

Makes me wonder who has all the time money resources to continually put out the narratives👀.  Truth always finds the light!

Hi, I was shocked to see this mess(ing) around PhoenixMiner.
I downloaded 5.5c about a month ago from phoenixminer.org. My experience is great. The miner's performance is best of all I tried.
Haven't experienced any security issues so far.

Can anybody tell if I'm using the official version or I'm victim of a scam?!?
I'm highly worried!!!


This is the file name and the checksum:

the place you downloaded it is not an official source of Phoenix Miner. Check the first post for the latest version and disclaimers.

Yes, there are correct checksums of the file.
But it's better to download from Github in the first post of the topic because this is a fan site with referrals and instructions, not a phoenix.
It is harmless, but it does give good starting instructions.
But I only recommend downloading from GitHub.

id like to know this too.. can someone post some result of their 3080 cards?
