Hi everyone

I downgraded the drivers version to 20.4.2 but it kept crashing! But after downgrading PhoenixMiner to 5.4c it has resolved.

5.5c is not stable for my Rx 580.
A friend of mine is having the same issue with his single Rx 580.

After updating RX 580 driver from version Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.4.2 Recommended (WHQL) to version Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.11.2 Recommended (WHQL) on my 4 rigs, they are now kind of unstable, crashing so often like 2 days uptime maximum


Using Windows 10
PhoenixMiner 5.5c
6 cards each rig


I'll rollback to the oldest driver and see if they get more stable.

Anyone else having the same issue???

Weird problem...
Every time I access one of the rigs through RDP after closing remote connection GPUs hang in some minutes! It might be something on my laptop side after some Windows Update!

Hi guys

By chance is someone else experiencing GPU hangs today??

I have 4 rigs all cards are the same Rx 580 8gb and the miner runs for 1 hour or so and all of sudden I get a message saying all GPU is hanging by the watch dog, and as I have set -rmode 2 with a restart batch file it reboots my Windows.

Yeah now it's running fine, my mobo has 6 PCI-E and I installed an adapter multiple card (PCIe 1 to 4 PCI-Express). It seems this adapter was not well connected and a reseat resolved.

This adapter:

Thanks for the answer

Has anyone ever tried to run amdand nvidia stable?

I was running 6 rx 580 perfectly, however I added a 1080Ti and after 2 days running it crashed (black screen) leaving no trace of the cause apparently.

There are some miners with no clock settings built in, so you will need a third party software.
IMO Afterburner is for amauters or testing stability before going live because in case of power loss your cards can reset the clocks to default, setting on the miner cfg or either on BIOS your cards will never miss clocks settings. You can set a script as well.

You are not gonna need the straps (use -mt 1 on Phoenix), just copy all the timings from the GUI and test them on PhoenixMiner, after everything is stable you can set a .bat file to start up on Windows like mine:

TIMEOUT /T 60

Yeah you can use AMD Memory Tweak
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123724.0
I recomend you to first run with Claymore and open AMD Memory Tweak to check which parameters have been set, then copy all these values switch to Phoenix Miner and set those values after 1 min or so. You can use a simple batch on Windows start up to set these values after the miner is up.

I tweaked the timmings using a third party software called AMD Memory Tweak you can find more information on this topic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123724.0

Just to record this information to help someone with this hardware in the future.
Yeah this card can go @32mh/s but I don't want more heat, there are 24 cards in a room and I can't use a lot of fans because of the noise.

I still need to finish to install the other cards
Using 4x 220v 23w FAN at the back of the rigs (too loud)

Indeed
I used to have this issue until I buy the vga dummies, HOWEVER the dummies are disconnected and I noticed that this issue is gone.

Using PhoenixMiner 5.0e
AMD driver 20.4.2
Windows 10 17134.1246 and 19041.264

Maybe the latest amd driver fixed this

Same issue here on my 3 Rigs.
I'm selling my 580 4GB cards to buy 8gb cards

I see some confusion on the internet about $XGM Defis x $GRIMM Grimm

Like this site shows $XGM as the most profitable mining coin:

https://minerstat.com/coin/XGM

But this is not true, this information seems to be crossed after the hardfork.

It is showing the reward from $GRIMM with the price of $XGM.

Be careful

Thanks by the answers guys, you are amazing.
I'll put them on sale this is the momento to take advantage of the GPU high prices (at least in my country) and wait for the prices of 8GB cards to decrease.
I'm keeping an eye on 5700 XT and RX 580 prices.

Yes
I had to migrate to PhoenixMiner which is an awesome miner as well
But when 4GB cards stop mining I'll buy one 8GB card for each rig and problem is solved.

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
