Should the reported hashrates be stable like with Claymore? Mine seem to be jumping here and there (1-2%).
  The hashrate that is reported to the pool is the same as the 5 min average hasrate displayed on the PhoenixMiner console window (unless the miner is paused). We could provide a longer window to filter the rate more but we feel that it is better to see the actual real-time hashrate instead of some highly filtered average value (and longer windows would require a little bit processing).

Awesome thank you for the response. After letting this run for a few hours I do notice that the reported hashrate is fairly stable on the pool.

Hi, I am using gtx1060 geforce for it and it keeps on showing :
GPU 2: unable to get fan speed unknown error (999)
GPU 3: unable to get fan speed unknown  error (999)

and after sometime it accumulates :

GPU 2: unable to get fan speed error (999)
GPU 3: unable to get fan speed error (999)
GPU 5: unable to get fan speed error (999)
   This is an NVML (the Nvidia hardware monitoring library) internal error. We have seen similar errors on our GTX1060s. Additional symptoms include high CPU usage (either by the miner or the MSI Afterburner). The same problems were also observed with Claymore's miner on the same rig. The short term-solution is to restart the rig (not just the miner) but the only long-term solution is to lower the memory overclock a little. We have found that even 20-30 MHz lower memory clocks completely solve the problem. Or you can continue mining and ignore the errors but the high CPU usage can be a real PITA when trying to control the rig via VNC or TeamViewer.

Agreed. My 1070 originally would have the 'driver' crash and I'd lose my temp/fan readouts and ability to control OC. Turning down the mem clock a bit resolved it entirely. The OC originally appeared stable but after a few hours this would happen.
