I NEED HELP PLEASE!!

I got a single RX 470 MSI Armor edition, core clocked to 1400MHz and memory to 2145MHz, +50% limit power, Voltage parameteres on Auto. Using Wattman, drivers 19.8.1. Card reaches its max power (127w).
I use nicehash to mine, I get about 45mh/s mining Lyra2rev3, and sometimes it switches to phoenixminer and does 22mh/s, using above 100w. But then, after like 3-4 minutes, it caps at 90W and does only 11Mhs, so it auto-switches back to TeamRedMiner (lyra2rev3). Is this a bug or does the programs limits the card to 90W for some reason?

Note* Card reaches 127W with full load on other miners as well.

Normal behavior with Phoenix Miner. In fact the drivers hangs so the hasrate is reduced.

With Phoenix Miner and good settings you can reach +30Mh/s depending your memory.

My settings : 1140 MHz@900mV for GPU, 2040 MHz and if you put the RXBoost option with AMDTweakMemory you get extra h/s normally your GPU will be around 75 W.

you should know that Polaris gpus (470 is polaris) are good for mining because you can heavily undervolt and in parallel overclock memory.
under no condition you should sun stock voltages of over 1v - safe area is around 850-875mv and also do not go above 1300MHz core.

Anyone tried 19.9.3 AMD drivers? Miner supports it?

Just curious here - are there any plans to introduce/integrate memory straps into the miner like Claymore's v15 does?

It's allready done by author:

-mt VRAM timings (AMD under Windows only): 0 - default VBIOS values; 1 - faster timings; 2 - fastest timings.
The default is 0. This is useful for mining with AMD cards without modding the VBIOS.

It's not memory modded memory straps, it's just setting options wich exists in Radeon Settings - timings section. But without vbios modding it can significant increase speed.

-rxboost option is absent in this moment... I hope Phoenix will add it in future too.

interesting, thanks for the info! Never seen any timings settings in the drivers. I still use the best performing 18.6.1 and also without gui. will check it out later anyway.
Also regarding the Claymores "rxboost" I'd guess its REF and RFC that you can (among all other values) update with Amd mem tweak.
Im hoping for Nvidia timings though:)

Be carefull, I didn't know will -mt work with old drivers or not...

Yep it doesn't. Just gives me this: "GPUx: Unable to set VMEM timing to 2 - error: -8"
Maybe I'll try to install 19.9.2 or something and see what's what.

Yes, try to update drivers. This option appears only in 2019. Install latest WHQL, all works fine! Speed the same.

I've noticed an issue where at least 1 of my RX5700 will crash after switching to ETC when mining on Nicehash. The crash happens after a few minutes (less than 10) and they will crash even if it's only a brief switch to ETC then back to ETH. Mining to a regular ETC pool does not have any issues. I've tried every config setting/flag I can think of to try to prevent it (-eres 0 -rvram -1 -lidag 0 through 3), and both drivers 19.9.1 and 19.9.2. This is using version 4.6c. Any other setting I should try?

So I had this happen again while just mining ETH to a regular ETH pool. Everything was fine, stable and had been running for over 28 hours. Then, a DAG switch occurred (updating to the next ETH DAG) and between 9 and 10 minutes later, one of the GPUs (RX 5700 XT) stopped working and the miner would have restarted, but I had -rmode 0 to see if/when it would crash. Any thoughts on this?

I've flash my P104-100 to "8GB" bios but still runs out of ram when launching the DAG. guess it's just a BIOs trick?

Here are some notes about the Windows 10 out of memory problems:

While they are present both on AMD and Nvidia GPUs, the problem with Nvidia is much worse. The 4 GB AMD GPUs will work without problems under Windows 10 at least until DAG 350, while the best that can be expected from Nvidia is DAG 293. And this is not entirely Windows 10 fault because even under Linux the 1050Ti won't be able to go beyond DAG 340 or a little higher.
The first thing to do after encountering out of memory error is to add -rvram -1 -eres 0 to your command-line or config.txt file in order to lower the memory usage as much as possible.
Again, there is no point to upgrade to PhoenixMiner 4.7a if you don't have 4 GB Nvidia cards and there are no out of memory problems

Thanks, switched back to PhoenixMiner Cool

This is not working for me:(

paste the log file what happens exactly
are you using 4.7a version?
did you applied -rvram -1 -eres 0 too?
what OS and VGA drivers you use?
what's your virtual memory file size setup?
do you use another video card as primary display or you use the miners card for this?

Yes all stays same. But it starts mining better if renew gt settings. Maybe its some connection issue then.

Is there option to do miner command "Z"(autotune) in intervals? Like every 3 hours .
If difficult changes renewing GT option makes mining better.

With the same core and memory clocks, and clKernel gt best parameter stays the same. It's no need to find it regural.

@ damNmad

just use auto , eg.: ........-cdmport 3332 -coin auto -retrydelay 5 -timeout 2880 -amd.........
