The problem with the missing GPU temperatures on Nvidia GPUs is fixed
Added native kernels for AMD RX6700 GPUs. These are faster than the generic kernels and produce a lot less stale shares
Increase the max supported DAG epoch to 550 (should be enough to about Jan 2023)
Full support for setting clocks, fan speeds, voltages, and memory timings of AMD RX6900/6800/6700 cards
The specific hashrate is now shown in the form of kilo hashes per joule (kH/J). Example: if a GPU has hashrate of 30 MH/s with 100W power usage, the specific hashrate is 300 kH/J
Added new command-line parameters -ttj and -ttmem, allowing automatic fan speed control based on GPU hotspot (junction), and memory temperatures respectively. Example: -ttmem 83 will keep the GPU memory temperature at or bellow 83C by increasing the fan speed as necessary. These parameters can be combined with -tt, as well as with each other. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures
Added new command-line parameters -tmaxj and -tmaxmem, allowing to decrease the GPU usage when the GPU hotspot (junction), or GPU memory temperatures are above the specified thresholds. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures
Added support for AMD Windows drivers 21.3.2, and 21.3.1
Added support for AMD Linux drivers 20.50.x. Use this drivers only if you have Polaris or older GPUs, or the latest RX6x000 GPUs. WARNING: Vega, Radeon VII, and Navi GPUs won't work with these drivers!
Turn off the zero fan feature on AMD cards whenever a fixed fan speed is used (e.g. -tt -40), or when an auto fan with min fan speed is used (e.g. -tt 63 -minfan 35). To disable this feature, add -fanstop 1 command-line parameter
When -mcdag 1 is specified under Linux, the miner will not wait for the daggen.sh script to finish before starting to generate the DAGs. Instead it will for a fixed 7 seconds. This allows you to do all the following in the daggen.sh: turn off the overclocking of Nvidia GPUs, sleep for 30-60 seconds to allow time for DAG generation, and then re-apply the overclocking of the Nvidia GPUs
Other small improvements and fixes
The support for -ttj, -ttmem, -tmaxj, and -tmaxmem for Nvidia 3090 and 3080 GPUs is not yet ready for release. We hope to have it ready for the final 5.6 release.

For more robust integrity check, you can use our GPG public key, which was verifyed with ETH transaction from our main devfee account as explained here:
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

go to red panda mining on discord. there are a few guys that have a channel on there i know they are really busy however

With 5700 xt, Do you still use the 1 click bios editor and then change core/mem in phoenix? And can someone post some starting numbers for MSI RX 5700 XT 8 gig
Thanks
no its more involved now days. you have to manually do it. look on youtube on the red panda mining channel. the specialize in the 5700xt

i mined for the last years at eth low prices and a week ago i sold all my eth. now i will probably will do the same again. sold a 3070 for a ridiculous price last night as well

Re: PhoenixMiner 5.5c: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux)
Been doing a little mining on 2080ti rig with Phoenix (5.5c) & latest Nvidia drivers (to date 461.72) - all working well.
Managed to get hold of a 3080, put into a very similar system as the 2080ti (X570, 5900x...) - trying the same script, receiving an error message;
Unable to enum CUDA GPUs: no CUDA-capable device is detected No OpenCL platforms found No avaiable GPUs for mining. Please check your drivers and/or hardware.
All 'seems' fine, am I missing something really obvious?
Thanks for any advice
does it show the card is in the device manager ? assuming you are using windows.
Guys I manage to hit 30mh on a rx580 gpu at 2200 memory clock, I just want to ask if the is a safe overclock number for the GPU memory? Is there anyone running on same memory settings?
i usually use 1200 and 2150.
Hi waywoos what is your hashrate on rx580 with this memory and cclock settings? I would like you know? Do you manage to hit 30mh per second? Also at what power draw ?
Yeah all my cards hit over 30. Most are at 31 or very close. My one red dragon hits almost 32.
Use HWiNFO to check for memory errors. As long as it's stable and not showing tons of memory errors, 2200 MHz memory is fine. Overclocking too much will cause hardware errors, which will cause the miner to report more valid shares than you are actually getting credit for. Check out this guide for more overclocking tips.
