Hello.

I'm using PhoenixMiner 5.2c on Windows 10 with Adrenaline 19.7.5 drivers,  4 x 570RX 4GB cards in "compute mode" (VGA output connected to intergrated Intel GPU) with following settings:
Code:
-acm
-eres 1
-lidag 2
-tt -60,-45,-60,-60
-cclock 1050,1050,1050,1050
-cvddc 900,950,900,900
-mclock 1970,1970,1970,1970
-mvddc 850,850,850,850
-daglim 3990
Yet after DAG generation I get 0 Mh/s on every card, please advise what could be wrong, thank you.

PS. https://pastebin.com/Mb1asrvP <- the the log - I couldn't pinpoint anything strange or any errors that are in there though.

Basically the DAG is very large and life is ending for 4GB cards. If you really want you can do a few solutions

1) Switch to bigger GPUs like >6GB. And put the largest GPU in the first PCIe slot, and maybe your 4GB might work.

2) Use Linux. Install Ubuntu and run Phoenixminer on Linux and you should be good for another month or so.

3) Use a miner like lolminer which lets you mine >4GB however its at reduced speeds. At first its not so bad but with every new DAG it will hash slower and slower.

Besides this, not much else to do really except upgrade your farm to all 8GB GPUs.
