Let me sum it up.
You tested for a day ? Wow, that a lot of testing. Why not 5 minutes, you would have saved time and gotten about the same results.
The PhoenixMiner is faster. I know. I've proved it many many times comparing to Claytmore. I've tested for over a month running both miners. I know, you don't.
I don't know anything about who's Kernels belong to who and I seriously doubt you do either.
But I do, I've dumped both kernels and they are virtually the same. Like almost the same. Almost - some labels named differently for example, but when you disassemble, labels always look funky.
Also I did test Phoenix vs Claymore for more than a day ; ) Two days actually ; ) But on 10x 6xGPU rigs. Same hashrate.
But fee on Phoenix is lower.. so it's actually no brainer which miner to use ; )
Except I can't use Phoenix, cause temp stop option is not present.
OK.
I should have never posted any of my comments whatsoever about the kernel debacle.
I know nothing about it.
It is also none of my business and I'm not vested in any miner.
The outcome will work itself out. I am NOT on any one side.
I just happen to like the PhoenixMiner. It suits my needs.
For some reason "On My rigs" Phoenix is faster. ( not a lot ) but still faster.
And less expensive.
As always, individual results may vary.
Yes, I would like the temp stop/start option also. It's a real nice feature.
I hope Phoenix adds that one soon.
