Hi,

I try to mine with my old R9 290 with 4GB but the result it's so poor:

my .bat file:

PhoenixMiner.exe -epool xxxxxxxxxxxxx -wal xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -proto 3 -daglim 3820 -amd -gpus 2

2020.12.04:13:25:41.047: main 1 GPU(s) are auto-tuning. Hashrate may be low until they are ready.
2020.12.04:13:25:41.047: main Eth: Accepted shares 0 (0 stales), rejected shares 0 (0 stales)
2020.12.04:13:25:41.047: main Eth: Incorrect shares 0 (0.00%), est. stales percentage 0.00%
2020.12.04:13:25:41.047: main Eth: Average speed (5 min): 0.362 MH/s
2020.12.04:13:25:41.047: main Eth: Effective speed: 0.00 MH/s; at pool: 0.00 MH/s

I have also a RX 580 thats works correctly but i'm not capable to share his DAG file for the R9 290 so i try to do in 2 shells so separately.

Can you help me please?

Sorry for mi english level xD

I guess the best solution for you would be to mine another coin or switch to linux but there are more less 2 weeks left for mining ETH with 4GB cards and as far as I remember the hashrate on 290s was low even with 3.8GB DAG.

Is not possible to mine as Claymore? I mine with Claymore with both cards an only a DAG file in the RX 580
