Phoenix Rising works well as a GUI for phoenix: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=10264.0

Use Phoenix instead of poclbm.

My personal experience is that poclbm can put quite a load on the CPU. With Phoenix (phatk) I've never seen any load, maybe 2-4% now and then.

can phoenix be used through GUI Miner? I think Kiv put a bounty up a few days ago, but not sure if it can be done yet.

I'm mining with 3 5870's on win 7 on a quadcore and the average load on all 4 cores is 70-80% most of the time and goes beyond that alot of times depending on what I'm doing on the computer. Anyone have experience with this and how to relieve the cpu from cranking like this all the time?
