Re: PhoenixMiner 5.5c: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux)

Hi all. What is the command line parameter to auto set the difficulty? Mine is stuck at 10000MH and finding shares takes a long time. Thx for your time

The difficulty is set by the pool, not the miner. Different pools use different difficulties. The difficulty of the share is really just a representation of how much work the miner has to do before the pool accepts the share



ty. I thought that might be the case...

Sure thing.
I'd recommend ethermine or ezil for your pool. Flexpool is also a good option, i think they all have about a 4k difficulty. I'm on ezil right now and the diff is 4294mh and my smaller cards have no problems

If the correct and current version is 5.5c why does the new download location only have 5.4c ?
Did I miss something and you went back to 5.4c ?

The github linked in the first post has 5.5c and 5.4c if you click on releases. It's just showing the latter as the latest.

I presume they posted 5.5c first and then decided to upload 5.4c, or were asked to, likely so people have a source for it if they have any issues with 5.5c and need to fall back to an older version.

I fell for the same thing, I think PhoenixMiner uploaded 5.5 then 5.4, so that's why it shows as the latest, and was worried my SHA was different, turns out I was comparing 5.5 with 5.4, like a dummy. So I was a bit worried, once I figured how to actually download the right 5.5c zip and ran the checksums to confirm its the original file from Mega. I also went through the comparison of the EIO.dll/.exe, IOMap64.sys, and PhoenixMiner.exe to confirm those files match the file from PhoenixMiner.org zip I had downloaded some time ago, no idea if there are any other issues with their zip, but at least the main files match. So I feel a whole lot better now.

Also the bozos posting B.S. 5.5d updates can get bent, same for the bozos conveniently offering a new Mega link.

at this point it's gotta be a bot, there's a new mega link up and then down damn near every time I refresh the page

Finally got the last of my NiceHash balance out, and am using PhoenixMiner with direct mining pools from now on.

Getting paid in BTC was my preference, but seeing how unstable the dev is on Reddit and this forum completely tanked my confidence in them. Hell, putting that together with the founders' history makes me question exactly WHERE their BTC stash is even coming from.

Integrity matters even in this business. And NH has demonstrated none of that over the past 36 hours.

welcome.  if you have questions just post here and you will get better support than at scamhash anyways

r/GPUmining or r/Ethermining is also a good avenue of support

If y'all read the PSA on redd that was on the hotpage, that was me

IOMap64.sys

please some can notify me ?

Yes, it's safe. There the sums of the .exe file match, as well as .dll, sys.
There are many .bat files in the archive, so the amount of the total archive is different, but the amount of the executable file is the same - hence it is safe.
It looks like this is a site for crypto enthusiasts, there are instructions with referral links and training materials with requests for donations.

I could not find the real 5.5c exe download for compare it. I've been trying to find this answer for hours. Thanks alot!

And now i find the original PhoenixMiner_5.5c_Windows.zip file and PhoenixMiner.exe SHA is
SHA-1   11428c3bdf728860fd057c411a95b14e13f05dbc
SHA-256   599393e258d8ba7b8f8633e20c651868258827d3a43a4d0712125bc487eabf92

https://www.reddit.com/r/gpumining/comments/lz7w18/how_can_you_install_phoenixminer/

then seems like no need worry about phoenixminer.org,
they just collected pool bats in same zip

Yeah, but it's about what those .bats do after the program launches. Sure, ther .exe can match but it's still taking commands from those batch files. If the batch is configured to switch, it's game over.

That being said you could just not use the provided .bat files, but at this point (even as I'm using 5.4c this very moment) I wouldn't download any phoenix miner anything until we hear from the dev

Fellow Cyberpunk players: I've got a 2070 in my gaming machine, and updated my drivers to play Cyberpunk. Of cours after I I finished playing, mining didn't work. Simple, stupid, temporary solution: Update driver, play Cyberpunk. Finish playing Cyberpunk, go to device manager, go to your GPU, get into the properties, and roll back the driver. I didn't even need to restart my PC.

Re: RVN GPU ROI Mining Analysis - (Updated)

any data for 1660s?
Is it worth to buy 1660s to mine RVN?
Thanks

So I got a PNY 1660 Super, it runs at about 15.2MH (OC'd) pulling 124W, roughly 122-125KH/W. Costs me about 30 cents a day. The card cost about $240 in total, and when I calculated the ROI back when RVN was at flat $.02 it was like a 10-month ROI but of course that fluctuates with markets and such

Get an RX 580. Mine still runs at 30MH/s and pulls between 98 and 108 watts, makes me about 65 cents a day after paying it's ~30 cents power cost. The card itself costs $100-200 depending where you buy it. My 5700 XT gets 52MH/s, haven't OC'd it at all, costs about 400 bucks

Not gonna lie, I was considering using you guys but with 6% fee, there's no way. I'm just mining with one GPU and I'll never get past your minimum threshold to get lower fees in 30 days. And that's before the withdrawal fee...

I found a Pi 3 and got cgminer running (following instructions on the announcement) all my Pacs, so I'll see what my speeds are like in the morning.



Update: after getting cgminer running for a full 24h on my Pi @ 400MHz for my NewPacs, one is doing 88.4GH/s (normal), the other two are 80 and 77.

[...]

Yeah, I tweaked the voltages on the 2Pacs, but not the new. I guess I assumed there were different generations of NewPacs, since the chips are different colors. Evidently I was wrong. I'll swap over to a Pi4 then and see what results that yields.

[...]

Ah, that makes sense. I've seen the plateaus, yeah. And I've got them quite cool, don't have a temp laser but they're only slightly warm to the touch, average coffee is warmer.

I've got 2 fans on them, I'm confident it isn't a heat issue - one fan is top down, the other is angled in from the side. I love loading the OS off a flash drive, I'll give that a shot before I buy a pi Cheesy

Ok, so I've finally got all the correct pieces together, and I'm scratching my head a little bit. I've got the GekkoScience 7-port hub, the GekkoScience 12v 8a power supply, 3x NewPacs (one older generation, 2 newer generation - the older one has a sticker on it like the 2Pacs did with it's serial on it, the 2 newer ones don't and the chips are tan colored instead of black like my original NewPac), 2x 2Pacs and an Arctic Breeze USB fan. There's a secondary Arctic Breeze fan being powered by the pc tower to keep temps down.

From what I've read, the hub should be able to support like 6x NewPacs at 600MHz. I'm running my 2Pacs at 275, and the NewPacs at 450. None hit the hashrates they should; at 450, the NewPacs should be hitting 102.6, and the 2Pacs at 275 should be hitting ~30. Two of the NewPacs are close, they're at 98.23GH and 99.95GH, which is within 5% of where they should be, but the 3rd is sitting at 91.9GH and the 2Pacs are sitting at 24.71. They've been stable at least, and I'm pulling this data after about 24 hours of hashing. Is there something I'm missing?

I'm running the newest CGMiner version from the front page from Windows 10. I've seen one of the sticks hit 101GH at 450 but that's the best I've seen. Does this come down to operating system? I've also tested without the 2Pacs on the hub and I get similar results. Could it be that one stick is just inferior to the other two?

Woo, got my NewPac today and accidentally got myself a birthday present!

It's hashing happily and I'm gonna be adding my 2Pac in once I'm sure the NewPac is stable, but I do have a question on the NewPac:
No matter what USB port I plug it into on my PC or the Plugable Powered 7-Port USB Hub from 419Mining, when it's initially plugged in, both status lights are on, the green and the white. It mines no problem, so I guess it's fine?

Also, using the cgminer-4.11.1-windows-gekko-9e51f0b build, does autotune also apply to a 2Pac if it's also connected? I read through the first 20 pages of this topic and scrolled through the last 28 and didn't see any info pertaining to the 2Pac question and I'd rather not fry another one.

/edit I've got the NewPac autotuning on the 7-port hub and earlier in the thread I saw vh mention that 275MHz will pull 7W and max it out...tuner has the NewPac at 431.25MHz right now, is it gonna kill the hub right away, or was the 275MHz metric for a 2pac? **I found the answer to this, 300MHz is 6.795W** I'm not getting any nonce or errors except for the ever-present (since I've started mining with 2Pacs like a year and a half ago) "Share Above Target"

You are one of the few newbs here in a long long time who knows how to learn: 1st research and *then* ask questions. Most just say "give me a fish!" (a single answer). Ja, we'll give you a fish - a fish smack in the head. You asked "teach me to fish" (how does is work), lo and behold -- you get teachers.

I really try, I'm an AV installer by trade so I'm familiar with troubleshooting. If you mess with something and it stops working, try and set it back to last known good settings. If you can't, soft reset. If that doesn't work, factory reset. If you can't, call tech support and keep trying while you're on hold for 40 minutes. If no tech support, fuck with it until it works. I read through like 50 pages of this thread while I was waiting, hence the 8 updates on my original post haha


Also, update on my 2pac: I switched the to a different usb port than I was originally using before I went to bed last night and left the stick at 100MHZ at 1.32v. Checked on it before I went to work, it was down to 3.5GH/s, don't remember how many HW errors but I'd assume there were a few and it only gathered like 3,000 shares so it stopped really hashing right after I went to bed. That was about 7 hours ago now. Unplugged the stick and plugged it back in, checked volatge and it was 1.34 (didn't touch potentiometer) and restarted cgminer, been hashing 100MHZ at ~10GH/s all day but I've got about 9 HW errors...are those from getting too much power?
