I have Phoenixminer working well for the few newer graphics cards that I can get my hands on, but having issues with an older GTX 970.  I have tried multiple version of drivers (latest 466.27 -> 445.87) with no luck.  I realize the card only has 4GB and obviously running out of memory.  The card benchmarks fine, but when trying to mine it runs out of CUDA.  I have increase virtual memory to 32 GB with no luck and now trying  --daglimit 1000  and even lower settings with no luck.  Phoenixminer DAG always seems to attempt to allocate 4.23GB .  Any suggestions?

Mine something else the 970 is done on Eth.

You can try lolminer but hoenstly 4gb cards are no longer worth it on eth.

Thank you.  Earlier today, I found a chart showing that ETH needs a min of 4GB and that must be why the --daglim not working.
