Re: PhoenixMiner 5.4c: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux)

In regards to my issue with my first (#1) GPU causing me headaches in my 6x 3080 rig I believe I figured out part of the issue. I had added remote desktop ability so I could easily monitor the rig. This created "remote desktop display adapter" in the device manager. I disabled this driver and the rig has been running solid for 24 hours now. I believe something in Phoenix miner was confusing the 1st GPU and this display driver causing vrel and vop issues to pop up even though they weren't real and the card didn't need to be limited. Now that I've disabled this driver and am only plugging a screen into the rig I'm having zero issues. Very strange, but hopefully one that can be fixed so I can use remote desktop in the future.

Is anybody trying to mine with 6x 3080s and having issues with GPU#1 on 5.4c? After a duration of time GPU#1 just starts going crazy with the hashrate jumping around. When I look in GPU-z it shows vrel and vop being hit by the GPU. Upon closing and opening the software it doesn't seem to fix the issue. Now if I physically remove GPU#1 from the system (shut down and re-boot), and then I fire it up the next GPU that was #2 and has now become #1 now has the same issues. These things were perfectly stable in other rigs with only 1 or 2 3080s in them... Any ideas what the problem may be? These are EVGA 3080s (FTW3 and XC3 Ultras). I have tried different Nvidia drivers 460.89 and 461, but no luck. I just downloaded 5.5b and am trying that now. It has been stable for the first half an hour but we'll see if it just fails like the other one after a few hours.


what are the over clock settings?

try older driver 457 I think

Overclock settings aren't a factor here since the cards are perfectly stable at their overclocks if they aren't in the #1 position. No matter how low I turn the overclocks it is still unstable. So far with 5.5b I have been stable for 10 hours now. I am also considering that maybe the 5.4c was just corrupted when I downloaded it and I just needed a fresh install possibly. Currently stable with 460.89 drivers and 5.5b
