@PhoenixMiner, bro I have been with the newest version 2.7c for a week now and I see the following tendency - every 12 hours or so the rig freezes and stops mining, the cards go in idle state and I have to make a hard reset in order to restart the machine.
For the last 5 days this has happened around 5 times. What may be causing this issue? Anyone else with the same problem?
    Obviously this is not DAG generation related as it happens too often, so we will need some logs to make any suggestions.

When new version available? What are the best NVidia drivers/settings for the 1070 GPUs?
Regards
   The first beta of 2.8 should be released tomorrow. We found some regressions during the internal testing and we had to delay the release.

The -gt parameter is quite similar but not the same as -dcri. Replace -gt 110,44,110 with -dcri 110,44,110, which will force PhoenixMiner to try and approximate the GT values from the supplied -dcri values.
Any reason this isn't mentioned in readme? Why hide such beneficial (albeit experimental) thing?
    Well, we print a warning for each Claymore command-line argument that is not implemented by us, and we assume that if anyone is switching over from Claymore, they would try first with the same command-line options as they used before. However, for the new users it is best to use directly the -gt parameter as the approximation of -dcri is not ideal and may give some strange results in certain cases.
