You can't tweak NVIDIA bioses just like you can with AMDs. I used "polaris bios editor" to perform these little mods myself. I'm in no way an expert but I'm quite happy with the results.

Is there a big difference in power usage between AMD cards and Nvidia?  I've noticed a difference in my Nvidias from one manufacturer to another.  I.e. my 1070s are MSI and my 1080s are EVGA.  The 1080s are using 5 fewer watts (115 vs 120) for 14% more hashrate.  This is actually a big deal for me, my power costs are Californicated.  

I can't answer directly, I have no NVIDIA card. I've noticed an increase in power usage from win 10 build 1709 with 18.3.4 drivers to the 1803 build with 18.5.1. I was at 400-405W at the wall, after it was 420W. With the new hardware (X470 mobo, Ryzen 2400G, 8GB 2400MHz DDR4) I'm around 440W, Idle is 110W. That means around 110W par card while mining.
But I've not stop one card after the other to measure the individual power draw.
Right now I'm mining CN tokens, I burn 100 less W par hour.

Works like a charm. Is there any Powerlimit command line for Nvidia?
Hi,

Why you don't want to use MSI Afterburner or Nvidia Inspector? Easy to use both.   
If the answer it's "yes" could you explain please...why?  Huh

That's not impressive, I reach almost 31,5MH/s with 2 of my RX 570s on Phoenix, and they are at least 50% than a 1070.

1080 with pill should be around 50MH/s. We've seen reports of this kind of pseed with ETH pill & Phoenix.

I don't think you earn more on ethminer rather than with Phoenix and its 0,65% devfee. You could buy a sub 15$ win 10 licence and compare.

I get 32.5 out of my 1070s and 37.1 out of my pilled up 8GB 1080s (averages.)  I think those getting 50Mh/s are running 1080ti with 11GB.

37.1 is not worth buying a 1080 when any Vega 56 get at the very least 40+ (42-47). Aren't X16, Equihash or Lyra still more profitable with a 1080?

I don't have the experience to know the answer to that.  I have very little experience with AMD chipset cards, and I've never flashed one.  Do you write your own bios or is there a download available?

Sorry if this is rude to post here in the thread of someone with a devfee miner...

but why do all you people use a devfee miner? I use ethminer 0.15.0rc1 from https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases for a few days which has no devfee at all.

I'm using 6 x 1070s and 2 x 1080 (with OhGodAnETHlargementPill) and 270-280mh/s on Nanopool. That's average of around 32.4mh/s for each 1070 and around 34mh/s for each 1080. Do you do better than that with Claymore or Phoenixminer?

I never got good results for Rx570 and phoenix. Can you share your settings?

GPU1: 1180 core (850mV) / 2130 mem (860mV) gigabyte Gaming with samsung mem. Usually 31-31,4 MH/s. Higher frequencies because it's my display GPU and I use the PC while mining
GPU2: 1140 (825mV) / 2090 (880mV), Sapphire ITX, Elpida/Hynix mem. Usually 31,2-31,5 MH/s
GPU3 (weak ASIC): 1130 (875mV) / 2035 (880mV) MSI Gaming Elpida/Hynix mem. Usually 29,5-29,8 MH/s
All cards are bios modded.

Phoenix 2.9C, AMD 18.5.1 drivers with annoying win 10 X64 build 1803.

Tried ethminer, claymore and phoenix on 3 mixed amd rigs, getting more shares with phoenix.

Ethmining is much easier with this program, in the folder you can download the latest version of etminer.

WiNEther Miner is a graphical interface to use with ethminer with advanced watchdog options and monitoring................. . .. Download : https://github.com/digitalpara/WiNETH

OhGodAnETHlargementPill does not work with 1070 .. only with 1080 and 1080i! and 34 at 1080 very little .. should be about 38-42 ..

Hello guys, hello PhoenixMiner.
I decided to try the phoenix miner, I liked it, the speed of hashing is slightly larger than on the claymore. But after 9 hours the speed of the farm 5*msi GTX1070 GamingX 32Mh/s fell to 27, and the second farm 5*msi GTX1060 GamingX 6Gb completely disconnected with an error(cuda error 749) .. What's the problem?
And yet - my farm 5*  RX550 4Gb, in the claymore they show 13.8 each, and the phoenix miner is only 12.5. What is wrong I do?
P.s. sorry for my English))

so noone doing restart their rigs..and phoenix team didnt answer to me Sad 

i want to restart my rig when rig freezer..how can i do this?what i must write my my file?

when your whole rig freezes (unable to do anything in windows) you need a external piece of hardware to do it.
something like this cost $5 from aliexpress

ty for answer..but not whole rig..i want to restart my rig when gpu freeze or miner..claymore using -r 1...phoenix ? i am using  -rmode 2 but didnt work Sad

-r 1 does work in phoenix too, make sure you have a reboot.bat in the same folder with same parameters as start_miner.
but restarting the rig (computer u mean?) im not sure its possible with phoenix.
i've made a program myself to handle it.

Is there a way to name the rig besides putting it behind the wallet address?  My pool doesn't like that format...

-eworker rig1


ok ty bro..
Hi,

You don't need a program for that, use "-rmode 2" in your Phoenix miner line command and in the same folder you must have "reboot.bat" file with "shutdown /r /t 5 /f".

Regards


ah ty ..thats it..i want to know that..i am trying now ty

Hi to all, I have a little problem with phenixminer, I try 3.0a , b and c

Actually I use claymore with mi rig ( 5x rx580 8gb) and the hashrate for any card is about 31.2 to 32 mh/s with a consumption about 87w for card with driver amd for blockchain; card are not flashed, original bios


Sorry but there is absolutely no way you are getting 31-32 MH/s at 87W with factory bios on a 580. as a matter of fact you couldn't get 25 without flash.

no, is absolutely possible, instead of flash bios I add this parameter in phoenix comand line: -cclock 1200 -mclock 2250 -cvddc 850 -mvddc 950. Seeing is believing

In my rig, only 1 of 6 card is flash with custom bios (my first card  Grin ) , and I do not know why, this card consumes 105w
Well I bet you are seeing the consumption of energy through software... I bet 1 eth if you measure at the wall you'll see around 700-800watts maybe more...
