hi
How to make sure that when reaching for example 62 degrees, the mining intensity decreases so as not to exceed the temperature threshold. What commands to put in a batch file. Driver version 19.7.5 mining 5.0b (my current settings, but on them the temperature continues to rise and above 62 degrees without reducing the intensity of mining -tt 61 -tstop 67 -tstart 50 -tmax 62 -fcm (0 or 2) -fanmin 50)
  There is no such feature (reducing mining intensity to keep the temperature in check). You should use -tmax, which lowers the GPU core clocks when it reaches the target temperature. If it doesn't work, try a newer driver version (e.g. 2.4.2) and if still doesn't work, let us know what cards you are using.
Hi, about my question, tested on drivers from 18.6.1 to 18.9.3 on them the reduction in the core frequency works, on drivers above this version it does NOT work, on the latest version 20.5.1 it does not work either. Now in the summer the -tmax parameter is very relevant, please look and if possible implement it on drivers above 18.9.3
I use most of the video cards PowerColor Red Dragon/Devil RX580, but there are others 580 series (Sapphire, Gigabyte) they also do not perceive this parameter, program Phoenix 5.0e, Windows 10 LTSB/LTSC


I have 18 GPU mining for 20 months and some fans are not doing well, about 3 cards.

While my spare fans are coming from China, I would like to keep these cards mining and set a target temperature to lower its mining intensity like this command I used to use on Claymore:

"-ttli   reduce entire mining intensity (for all coins) automatically if GPU temperature is above specified value. For example, "-ttli 80" reduces mining intensity if GPU temperature is above 80C"


I get temperatures above 70C 6 hours a day when sun is heating however the o ther 18 hours I can mine at full speed.

I'm using -ttmax but it's not working
I read the whole README and couldn't find any similar automatic control.

All cards are Asus RX 580 4GB
Windows 10
PhoenixMiner_5.0e
Driver Version 20.4.2
