Thank you for your development.
Is it possible to do dual mining of TON with AMD VEGA?

A bit impatient?

If you cannot wait use a different miner.

PhoenixMiner detects the first GPU twice. As a result, neither the real GPU nor its phantom counterpart works.

Windows/Linux which videocard?

I have been using PhoenixMiner for abt. a year in a mixed rig and haven't encountered anything like that.

Hey everyone! Hoping to troubleshoot a MATIC mining issue on my end. My graphic card( AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT ) is on the latest driver(22.1.1 released 1/7/2021 …10 days before this post). I seem to be running into an error and cannot move past 0Mh hashrate, along with the error no CUDA driver found, when using version “PhoenixMiner_5.9d_Windows”. I went downgrading version by version and had some success with version “PhoenixMiner_5.5c_Windows” with a 28.6Mh(people seem to be getting higher on newer versions) but thought I would at least illuminate the issue in hope to use a newer version 5.9. Not sure if this is impacting anyone else with an AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT for a graphics card, or because of the newer driver, but any help is appreciated!

-------------->MINER LOG END<--------------

PhoenixMiner doesn't support anything newer than 21.11.3.   I don't know if the drivers are so significantly different to cause this problem every three months, or if PM is just coded to look for specific driver versions and won't even TRY to use the AMD path with newer drivers than what it specifically looks for.   It's annoying, that's for sure.

An easy way to TEST would be to:
1) Create a Symbolic link/Junction link to the latest (Stable AMD supported PM drivers) but RENAME the folder to previous drive yet in the system ENV_VARS  %path%  ../../../%Path_to_Symlink% <== OR PATH_POINT_TO >= build 21.12.x (ABOVE) stable 21.11.3 drivers.
2) I suspect WMI maybe queried by PM and this is how driver version is derived.
3) Ask the dev @PhoenixMiner what the checks are AND if its hardcoded in the code to search for driver version or is it because PM fails because of an incorrect dependency contained in drivers grt > v21.11.3 which PM relies on.. OR missing *.dll it could be a million possible things.
4) It could be that AMD drivers compiled past version 21.11.3have been totally refactored and rebased and what PM relies upon is no longer a resource that is in the codebase any longer, thus fail.
5) It could also be a part of PM's dev workflow to test against a set of Drivers to keep development under control by stipulating a range of supported drivers.
..Buts thats what I would do to try and isolate reasons for fail on latest driver above PM recommended.

Hi. Such a mistake began to appear constantly:

When ETH+TON ?
Please hurry up! Your miner is the best for ETH!

i cant wait for it either. i am using trm but want to use phoenix asap.

TRM is better for ETH+TON on AMD. But TON mining is not so profitable anymore. Rewards go down to 50% in 1 week and it ends in 2 month or so - depends on the increasing hashrate. I think in 1 month it is not worth to dual mine it - because of the higher power consumption.

Asking for some help with the -acm command.

Since the windows amd update I can't use adrenaline to change to compute.

It appears the -acm worked for two of my cards but not the other three.

When I start it doesn't say they aren't set.

Thanks.  They're 580s and 570s

Too high OC settings, drivers, windows might take up too much vram so the dag fails?

Regretably I don't have a 1060 6gb maybe someone else might be able to give you some insight with this issue.

there is restart pending for your windows update,

update driver and afterburner

You have all sorts of issues here.   The most obvious that it can't initialize the CUDA drivers, so, what video drivers do you have installed?   Reboot, if rebooting does not fix it, then update your video drivers and try again.

Well, we are now into February, the number of posts by ANY people have dropped like a rock, and AMD now has a third month worth of drivers out that PhoenixMiner does not work with.    I know it isn't reasonable to expect updates instantly, but the complete lack of any posts by users or from PM makes me feel like this one is dead.   Now, which miner to switch to?

Yes it's a shame I started out mining with PM last year and I have had to transition to other miners do to the fact that they haven't implemented dag caching

Gminer faster updating and is more faster than phoenixsminer ,but more devfee 1%  ,Bzminer more updates and lowest devfee 0.5% devfee  teamblackminer devfee 0.5% 
more choice then phoenixminer  and no longer waiting for a update
