I would really love to see a screen shot of ANYONE that can pump out more than 30 MH/card on (12+ per rig) RX 580 cards and hash stable for more than 24 hrs. No matter what I try it just will not happen. As soon as I push to 30 or higher, the rig will start to crash. I used to tune individual cards and get higher hash rate but that function has been broken since forever ago. So I would really love to see if anyone out there is actually able to achieve this.

I appreciate your screen shot but it only shows your rig at 47 min. I was asking if anyone can show a rig running 30+ MH for more than 24 hr.


Side note: Did PM ever fix the problem with not being able to set cclock and mclock for individual cards?

Here you go.  Had restarted late on Tuesday after repasting a gpu....

still no fix for 5.3b running 8GB cards on ETH?

all my 4GB rigs are running fine, but 8GB wont mine

-61 error everywhere, tried -lidag -eres but no help

same 390x 8gb

Radeon VII used to do ~92 MH/s out of the box, now it barely reaches 80 MH/s.


Momentan solution is to restart miner every couple hours.

I faced same issue starting one month ago, it repeats 2-3 times every 24 hours, drops from 94,5MH each card to 78-82MH.

After 3 days of pissed off, I sold my entire rig based on 4x Radeon VII, and I bought 8x 5700XT to make a new rig, less power consumption, less heat dissipated, less noise, more MH, but more space too.

Much better efficiency for 5700XT, in my opinion, with modded bios id tbe best card for mining ETHASH.

it was. Now rtx 3060TI best mining for eth. 63Mhs for 120w

everything is real, it's just that each video card needs an individual approach to adjust the frequency and voltage. There are video cards that can be greatly overclocked and in reverse, in the screenshot the video cards are good in overclocking, the less fast video cards were given to a friend. Soon they will be working for three years, it is very important to blow them well so that they do not overheat (driver 19.7.5 all rx580)

@PhoenixMiner I am recently experiencing a significant slowdown on my Radeon VII cards!

OS: Arch Linux
Driver: opencl-amd 19.30.934563-1 (which is on your 'good drivers' list I think)
PhoenixMiner version: 5.2e
Algorithm/coin: Ethash/Ethereum

I used to use PhoenixMiner 4.7c which worked great up until a few weeks ago when It would not start anymore citing some DAG allocation error (on a card with a 16GB framebuffer LoL). I then switched to 5.2e and everything was well again (same MH/s).

Today I went to check on the rig and the hashrates have dropped dramatically! I tried auto-tune etc, same result. I read somewhere here that PhoenixMiner is switching to another method to allocate the DAG due to 4GB coming up shortly? Maybe this new method kicked in recently and it is more compute heavy? I am sure you know that the Radeon VII is (the only?) consumer GPU that is actually core-limited instead of memory-limited when mining ethash.

Radeon VII used to do ~92 MH/s out of the box, now it barely reaches 80 MH/s. The rigs could run stable for many months without monitoring, so having to monitor and make multiple changes in past week has been a pain. I would rather not go through the hassle of switching to another miner.

I have problem with miner. I have two rigs with 6xRX570 8gb nitro +, win 10, blokchain driver same bios on every card. Basicaly same two rigs. One is mining stable and around 31.5 mhs per card with -cvddc 900 -mclock 2200 -cclock 1150 . When I apply the voltage on second rig it goes down to 8 mhs after few minutes. If I dont put that it will mine ok but power goes to 1200w. If I mine with stock clock it goes to 25 mhs. Every other driver mines just 10 mhs. I use to mine with claymore and everything was fine and stable for 3 years. Is there a way to reduce voltage or something like that?

Update the driver to 20.11.1.
, when I do that it only mines 10mhs like I said

By new driver must be activate COMPUTE mode

Nanominer has nearly 15% of stale shares on pool stats, gminer is better and it still works on 4gb r9 290 at full speed.
Hope PhoenixMiner can be fixed to work again on r9 390, i dont ask for 290, not so much time left for then on eth.
I like his fan control in linux and ethman statistics so wait for update!

Are you kidding? My 570's work with 31.7-31.9 Mh, and 580's with 32.2-32.4 Mh for 3 years without issues. They are on 12 card rigs which used to work with windows, now with smos. Only the last night the 4Gb cards hanged during the epoch change but with a reboot they worked well again.  On my main computer with windows 10, the 580 8Gb card is hashing with 32.220 with claymore straps and -rxboost 1. I raised only the mem clock to 2100. I could raise it to 2170 and I will get another 0.300 Mh, but I prefer not to, so that I can use the computer freely and watch videos with no issues.


So you have been running 24/7 for 3 years without crash? Again, would you mind showing me a screen shot and your bat file?

SO , I`m using the last version of Phoenix miner (5.3b) and some blockchain drivers (17,4 - I think) for my AMD $X 470 . But I cannot undervolt my cards and they drain a lot of power from the wall . With almost 200w more than claymore used . How can I fix this ? Thanks

It' not possible to undervolt with old blockchain driver!

AB or miner can't do a sh*t to undervolt... and you can't use OverdriveNTool with old driver.

Solution:
1) update windows and use newer driver like 20.11.1
2) use SMOS


Thanks for answering . Tried the 20.11 driver and it mines with 9-10 mh so I switched back to the old driver  which does 29-30 Smiley Any update from Phoenix on this errors ? Thanks in advance

Just saw your post, I get it that you were using stock bios cards with Claymore and applying straps and rxboost to increase the hashrate. AFAIK Phoenix miner currently does not support "straps" for RX580 (all polaris) cards, so you'll have to bios mod these cards manually (using 1 click bios mods or any other tools) and then try using the overdriventool settings and then you'll get similar hash rates on RX580s.

Thank you for the reply.
OK. I’ll reflash them again to mod BIOS.
Can you remember if I need to run the AMD Patcher tool after?

I’ll report back as soon as it’s done.

When trying to start the .bat file as admin I get this error:

What gives? The .bat is in the same directory as the exe file, and obviously not in system32, how can I fix this? The very same thing happens with any miner I try to run as admin.

Add this on the beggining of the bat file:

hi all this is my bat file, I want to ask what is -proto 3
is it neccesary ? I have 2 1070 nvidia and 3 RX 580 all 8 gb


setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

REM IMPORTANT: Replace the ETH address with your own ETH wallet address in the -wal option (Rig001 is the name of the rig)
PhoenixMiner.exe -pool //eu1.ethermine.org:4444  -wal 0xbutkhg756gnfkhnkh56t87ng.rigname -proto 3
pause

anyone?

from the readme.txt file:

-proto
   Selects the kind of stratum protocol for the ethash pool:

   1:
      miner-proxy stratum spec (e.g. coinotron)

   2:
      eth-proxy (e.g. ethermine, nanopool) - this is the default,
      works for most pools

   3:
      qtminer (e.g. ethermine, ethpool)

   4:
      EthereumStratum/1.0.0 (e.g. nicehash)

   5:
      EthereumStratum/2.0.0

so it depends on the pool you are mining to...

restored original bios, installed 20.4.2., same thing
let us know if you manage to fix it, thanks


how much virtual ram?
test another miner like teamred and if it is run, let us know and we look again.
add -eres 0 for test

change os to win10.

You have old driver i think. And without information about your system, no one can help. OS and commandline are important to see some mistakes or something else.

How are you modding the bios? With OverDriveNTool, afterburner or hard coding with a bios change?

Thanks.
