Hey All,

Just switched from Claymore 11.9, so hoping things are more stable now.

I'm running Windows 10 (1709) AMD RX480 Nitro+ 8Gb Samsung Cards using 18.2.1 driver and latest Phoenix Miner 3.0c

But am a little perplexed, when setting -tt 59 in the cmd line, it does not seem to adhere to it and most cards are over this setting around 64 with fanspeed around 40%


Why?

Instead of -tt 59, try -tt -50, it will set fixed fan speed to 50% and you will get lower temperatures.
You can also increase it if that doesn't give you gpu temperature you wanted.

According to the Readme -tt xx is Set fan control target temperature

From using Claymore this is just set the temp I want the GPU's to run at? I.E -tt 59 and the fan control will do the rest. Am I mistaken?

The setting you are referring to I think is -fanmin

Does not help with all this hot weather, I'm having to shutdown my miners as they can't cope.
