PhoenixMiner — 完整指南

请注意,PhoenixMiner 支持 Claymore 以太坊双挖挖矿软件的大部分命令行参数,

因此你可以直接沿用在 Claymore 挖矿软件中使用的命令行参数。

矿池参数:

  -pool <host:port> Ethash pool address (prepend the host name with ssl:// for SSL pool, or http:// for solo mining)
  -wal <wallet> Ethash wallet (some pools require appending of user name and/or worker)
  -pass <password> Ethash password (most pools don't require it, use 'x' as password if unsure)

  -proto <n> Selects the kind of stratum protocol for the ethash pool:
     1: miner-proxy stratum spec (e.g. coinotron)
     2: eth-proxy (e.g. dwarfpool, nanopool) - this is the default, works for most pools
     3: qtminer (e.g. ethpool)
     4: EthereumStratum/1.0.0 (e.g. nicehash)
     5: EthereumStratum/2.0.0

  -dworker <name> Dual mining worker name
  -dcoin blake2s Currently only the Blake2s algorithm is supported for dual mining. If you want to put
       all dual mining pools in dpools.txt, you need to set -dcoin blake2s in the command-line or in config.txt
       to force the miner to load the dual mining pools from dpools.txt
  -dstales <n> Submit stales to the dual mining pool: 1 - yes (default), 0 - no

通用矿池参数:

  -fret <n> Switch to next pool afer N failed connection attempts (default: 3)
  -ftimeout <n> Reconnect if no new ethash job is receved for n seconds (default: 600)
  -ptimeout <n> Switch back to primary pool after n minutes. This setting is 30 minutes by default;
     set to 0 to disable automatic switch back to primary pool.

  -gwtime <n> Recheck period for Solo/GetWork mining (default: 200 ms)
  -rate <n> Report hashrate to the pool: 1 - yes, 0 - no (1 is the default), 2 - (for solo mining only)
     use alternative name of the report method "eth_submitHashRate" instead of "eth_submitHashrate"
  -nosni Do not send SNI host name on SSL connections

基准测试模式:

  -bench [<n>],-benchmark [<n>] Benchmark mode, optionally specify DAG epoch. Use this to test your rig.
     If you specify only the -bench option, you will benchmark the ethash algorithm. If you want to bench
     the dual mining, use the options -bench <n> -dcoin blake2s. If you want to benchmark the ProgPOW BCI
     algorithm, use the options -bench <n> -coin bci

远程控制参数:

  -cdm <n> Selects the level of support of the CDM remote monitoring:
     0: disabled
     1: read-only - this is the default
     2: full (only use on secure connections)
  -cdmport <port> Set the CDM remote monitoring port (default is 3333). You can also specify
     <ip_addr:port> if you have a secure VPN connection and want to bind the CDM port to it
  -cdmpass <pass> Set the CDM remote monitoring password
  -cdmrs Reload the settings if config.txt is edited/uploaded remotely. Note that most options require restart in order to change.
      Currently the follwing options can be changed without restarting: -mi, -gt, -sci, -clf, -nvf, -gpow, and most of the
      hardware control parameters (-tt, -fcm, -fanmin, -fanmax, -powlim, -tmax, -ttli, -cclock, -cvddc, -mclock,
      -mvddc, -ppf, -straps, -vmt1, -vmt2, -vmt3, -vmr)

挖矿参数:

  -amd  Use only AMD cards
  -acm  Turn on AMD compute mode on the supported GPUs. This is equivalent of pressing 'y' in the miner console.
  -nvidia  Use only Nvidia cards
  -nvmalt Use alternative NVML initialization. Use this option if the program crashes or exits while showing Initializing NVML... on the console.
  -gpus <123 ..n> Use only the specified GPUs (if more than 10, separate the indexes with comma)
  -mi <n> Set the mining intensity (0 to 14; 12 is the default for the new kernels). You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -gt <n> Set the GPU tuning parameter (6 to 400). The default is 15. You can change the
          tuning parameter interactively with the '+' and '-' keys in the miner's console window.
          If you don't specify -gt or you specify value 0, the miner will start auto-tuning to determine the best GT value for each GPU
          Note that when the GPU is dual-mining, it ignores the -gt values, and uses -sci instead.
  -sci <n> Set the dual mining intensity (1 to 1000). The default is 30. As you increase the value of -sci,
           the secondary coin hashrate will increase but the price will be higher power consumption and/or
           lower ethash hashrate.
           You can change the this parameter interactively with the '+' and '-' keys in the miner
           console window. You may specify this option per-GPU. If you set -sci to 0,
      the miner will use auto-tuning to determine the best value, while trying to maximize the
      ethash hashrate regardless of the secondary coin hashrate.
  -clkernel <n> Type of OpenCL kernel: 0 - generic, 1 - optimized, 2 - alternative, 3 - turbo (1 is the default)
  -clgreen <n> Use the power-efficient ("green") kernels (0: no, 1: yes; default: 0).
                 You may specify this option per-GPU. Note that you have to run auto-tune again as the
                 optimal GT values are completely different for the green kernels
  -clnew <n> Use the new AMD kernels (0: no, 1: yes; default: 1)
  -clabi <n> Use OpenCL 1.x even if 2.x is supported by the driver (0: no, 1: yes; default: 0)
  -clf <n> AMD kernel sync (0: never, 1: periodic; 2: always; default: 1)
  -nvkernel <n> Type of Nvidia kernel: 0 auto (default), 1 old (v1), 2 newer (v2), 3 latest (v3).
                Note that v3 kernels are only supported on GTX10x0 GPUs. Also note that dual mining is
                supported only by v2 kernels. You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -nvdo <n> Enable Nvidia driver-specific optimizations (0 - no, the default; 1 - yes). Try -nvdo 1 if your
            are unstable. You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -nvnew <n> Use new Nvidia kernels if supported (0: no, 1: yes; default: 1)
  -nvf <n> Nvidia kernel sync (0: never, 1: periodic; 2: always; 3: forced; default: 1). You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -lhr <n> Nvidia LHR unlock (0: no, -1: automatic, 100-1000: unlock intensity; default: -1).
                If this option is not specified (or specified as -1), the default LHR unlock intensity is 520. You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -mode <n> Mining mode (0: dual mining if dual pool(s) are specified; 1: ethash only even if dual pools are specified).
            You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -list List the detected GPUs devices and exit
  -gbase <n> Set the index of the first GPU (0 or 1, default: 1)
  -minRigSpeed <n> Restart the miner if avg 5 min speed is below <n> MH/s
  -eres <n> Allocate DAG buffers big enough for n epochs ahead (default: 2) to
      avoid allocating new buffers on each DAG epoch switch, which should improve DAG switch stability
  -daglim <n>
      (AMD Polaris, Baffin, Tonga, or Fiji cards only) Limit the DAG size to <n> MB to allow mining on 4 GB cards a few weeks after epoch 373
      on Windows (or 381 on Linux). The possible values except the exact DAG limit are also 0 (turn off the DAG limit), 1 (automatic DAG
      limit size, usually 4023 MB under Windows; this is the default). Note that the hashrate will drop significantly with each epoch
      after the DAG limit is in effect. If the hashrate drops too much (e.g. from 28 MH/s to just 2-3 MH/s, you need to use lower value,
      for example "-daglim 3996" or even lower.
  -dagrestart <n> Restart the miner when allocating buffer for a new DAG epoch. The
      possible values are: 0 - never, 1 - always, 2 - auto (the miner decides depending on the driver version).
      This is relevant for 4 GB AMD cards, which may have problems with new DAG epochs after epoch 350.
  -lidag <n> Slow down DAG generation to avoid crashes when swiching DAG epochs
      (0-3, default: 0 - fastest, 3 - slowest).
  -gser <n> Serializing DAG creation on multiple GPUs (0 - no serializing, all GPUs generate the DAG simultaneously, this is the default;
      1 - partial overlap of DAG generation on each GPU; 2 - no overalp (each GPU waits until the previous one has finished generating the DAG);
      3-10 - from 1 to 8 seconds delay after each GPU DAG generation before the next one)
  -gpureset <n> Fully reset GPU when paused (0 - no, 1 - yes; default: no, except on 1080Ti). You may specify this option per-GPU.
  -altinit Use alternative way to initialize AMD cards to prevent startup crashes
  -rvram <n> Minimum free VRAM in MB (-1: don't check; default: 384 for Windows, and 128 for Linux)
  -wdog <n> Enable watchdog timer: 1 - yes, 0 - no (1 is the default). The watchdog timer checks
      periodically if any of the GPUs freezes and if it does, restarts the miner (see the -rmode
      command-line parameter for the restart modes)
  -wdtimeout <n> Watchdog timeout (30 - 300; default 45 seconds). You can use this parameter to increase
      the default watchdog timeout in case it restarts the miner needlessly
  -rmode <n> Selects the restart mode when a GPU crashes or freezes:
     0: disabled - miner will shut down instead of restarting
     1: restart with the same command line options - this is the default
     2: reboot (shut down miner and execute reboot.bat)
  -log <n> Selects the log file mode:
     0: disabled - no log file will be written
     1: write log file but don't show debug messages on screen (default)
     2: write log file and show debug messages on screen
  -logfile <name> Set the name of the logfile. If you place an asterisk (*) in the logfile name, it will be
      replaced by the current date/time to create a unique name every time PhoenixMiner is started. If there
      is no asterisk in the logfile name, the new log entries will be added to end of the same file. If you
      want to use the same logfile but the contents to be overwritten every time when you start the miner,
      put a dollar sign ($) character in the logfile name (e.g. -logfile my_log.txt$).
  -logdir <path> Set a path where the logfile(s) will be created
  -logsmaxsize <n> Maximum size of the logfiles in MB. The default is 200 MB (use 0 to turn off the limitation).
      On startup, if the logfiles are larger than the specified limit, the oldest are deleted. If you use a
      single logfile (by using -logfile), then it is truncated if it is bigger than the limit and a new one
      is created.
  -config <name> Load a file with configuration options that will be added to the command-line options.
      Note that the order is important. For example, if we have a config.txt file that contains -cclock 1000
      and we specify command line -cclock 1100 -config config.txt, the options from the config.txt file will take
      precedence and the resulting -cclock will be 1000. If the order is reversed (-config config.txt -cclock 1100)
      then the second option takes precedence and the resulting -cclock will be 1100. Note that only one -config
      option is allowed. Also note that if you reload the config file with 'c' key or with the remote interface,
      its options will take precedence over whatever you have specified in the command-line.
  -timeout <n> Restart miner according to -rmode after n minutes
  -pauseat <hh:mm> Pause the miner at hh::mm (24 hours time). You can specify multiple times: -pauseat 6:00,12:00
  -resumeat <hh:mm> Resume the miner at hh::mm (24 hours time). You can specify multiple times: -resumeat 8:00,22:00
  -gswin <n> GPU stats time window (5-30 sec; default: 15; use 0 to revert to pre-2.8 way of showing momentary stats)
  -gsi <n> Speed stats interval (5-30 sec; default: 5; use 0 to disable). The detailed stats are still
           shown every 45 seconds and aren't affected by the -gsi value
  -astats <n> Show advanced stats from Web sources (0: no; 1: yes). By default the coin exchange rates are updated every
              4 hours, and the coin difficulty is updated every 8 hours. You can increase these periods by specifying
              for example -astats 12, which will increase update periods to 12 and 24 hours respectively
  -gpow <n> Lower the GPU usage to n% of maximum (default: 100). If you already use -mi 0 (or other low value) use -li instead
  -li <n> Another way to lower the GPU usage. Bigger n values mean less GPU utilization; the default is 0.
  -resetoc Reset the hardware overclocking settings on startup
  -leaveoc Do not reset overclocking settings when closing the miner

硬件控制参数(可用逗号为每张显卡分别指定不同的值):

  -tt <n> Set fan control target temperature (special values: 0 - no HW monitoring on ALL cards,
     1-4 - only monitoring on all cards with 30-120 seconds interval, negative - fixed fan speed at n %)
  -ttj <n>    Set fan control target hotspot (junction) temperature (can be used
     only on GPUs that report the junction temperature). Example: -ttj 75 will keep the junction temperature at or bellow 75C by
     increasing the fan speed as necessary. This parameter can be combined with -tt, and -ttmem
  -ttmem <n>    Set fan control target video memory temperature (can be used only
     on GPUs that report the VRAM temperature). Example: -ttmem 83 will keep the GPU memory temperature at or
     bellow 83C by increasing the fan speed as necessary. This parameter can be combined with -tt, and -ttj
  -hstats <n> Level of hardware monitoring: 0 - temperature and fan speed only; 1 - temperature, fan speed, and power;
     2 - full (include core/memory clocks, voltages, P-states). The default is 1.
  -pidle <n> Idle power consumption of the rig in W. Will be added to the GPU power consumption when
     calculating the total power consumption of the rig.
  -ppf <n> The power usage of each GPU will be multiplied by this value to get the actual usage. This value is
     in percent, so for example if the GPU reports 100 W power usage and you have specified -ppf 106 the GPU
     power usage will be calculated to be 100 * (106 / 100) = 106 W. This allows you to correct for the efficiency
     of the PSUs and the individual GPUs. You can also specify this value for each GPU separately.
  -prate <n> Price of the electricity in USD per kWh (e.g. -prate 0.1). If specified the miner will calculate the
     rig daily electricity cost
  -fanmin <n> Set fan control min speed in % (-1 for default)
  -fanmax <n> Set fan control max speed in % (-1 for default)
  -fanstop <n>  (AMD cards under Windows only) If set to 0 (the default), and a
     fixed fan speed (e.g. -tt -40), or -fanmin is used, the miner will not allow the fans to stop rotating.
     If set to 1, PhoenixMiner will not interfere in the fan stop function of the card.
  -fcm <n> Set fan control mode (0 - auto, 1 - use VBIOS fan control, 2 - forced fan control; default: 0)
  -tmax <n> Set fan control max temperature (0 for default)
  -powlim <n> Set GPU power limit in % (from -75 to 75, 0 for default)
  -cclock <n> Set GPU core clock in MHz (0 for default). For Nvidia cards use relative values (e.g. -300 or +400)
  -cvddc <n> Set GPU core voltage in mV (0 for default). For Nvidia cards use relative values (e.g. -300 or +400)
  -mclock <n> Set GPU memory clock in MHz (0 for default)
  -mvddc <n> Set GPU memory voltage in mV (0 for default)
  -tstop <n> Pause a GPU when temp is >= n deg C (0 for default; i.e. off)
  -tstart <n> Resume a GPU when temp is <= n deg C (0 for default; i.e. off)
  -mt <n> VRAM timings (AMD under Windows only): 0 - default VBIOS values; 1 - faster timings; 2 - fastest timings.
     The default is 0. This is useful for mining with AMD cards without modding the VBIOS. If you have modded BIOS,
     it is probably faster than even -mt 2
  -leavemt  Do not reset memory timing level ("-mt") to 0 when closing
  -ttli <n>   Lower GPU usage when GPU temperature is above n deg C. The default value is 0, which means do not lower the usage regardless of the
     GPU temperature. This option is useful whenever -tmax is not working. If you are using both -tt and -ttli options, the
     temperature in -tt should be lower than the -ttli to avoid throttling the GPUs without using the fans to properly cool them first.
  -tmaxj <n>   Lower GPU usage when hotspot (junction) temperature is above n deg C (can be used only on GPUs that report the junction temperature).
     The default value is 0, which means do not lower the usage regardless of the GPU hotspot temperature. If you are using both
     -ttj and -tmaxj options, the temperature in -ttj should be lower than the -tmaxj to avoid throttling the GPUs without using
     the fans to properly cool them first.
  -tmaxmem <n>   Lower GPU usage when VRAM temperature is above n deg C (can be used only on GPUs that report the memory temperature).
     The default value is 0, which means do not lower the usage regardless of the GPU memory temperature. If you are using both
     -ttmem and -tmaxmem options, the temperature in -ttmem should be lower than the -tmaxmem to avoid throttling the GPUs
     without using the fans to properly cool them first.
  -straps <n> Memory strap level (Nvidia cards 10x0 and P10x series only). The possible values are 0 to 6. 0 is the default value and uses the default
     timings from the VBIOS. Each strap level corresponds to a predefined combination of memory timings (-vmt1, -vmt2,
     -vmt3, -vmr). Strap level 3 is the fastest predefined level and may not work on most cards, 1 is the slowest (but still faster than
     the default timings). Strap levels 4 to 6 are the same as 1 to 3 but with less aggressive refresh rates (i.e. lower "-vmr" values).
  -straps <n> Memory strap level (AMD Vega cards only). The possible values are 0 to 5. 0 is the default value and uses the default timings from the
     VBIOS. Each strap level corresponds to a predefined combination of memory timings. Strap level 5 is the fastest level and may not work
     on most cards, 1 is the slowest (but still faster than the default timings). Note that straps for AMD cards are experimental and may
     lead to crashes or instability. "-vmt1", "-vmt2", and "-vmt3" parameters have no effect on AMD cards
  -vmt1 <n>  Memory timing parameter 1 (0 to 100, default 0)
  -vmt2 <n>  Memory timing parameter 2 (0 to 100, default 0)
  -vmt3 <n>  Memory timing parameter 3 (0 to 100, default 0)
  -vmr <n>   Memory refresh rate (0 to 100, default 0). For AMD cards you may also use "-rxboost"
  -nvmem <n>  Force using straps on unsupported Nvidia GPUs (0 - do not force, 1 - GDDR5, 2 - GDDR5X). Make sure that the parameter matches your GPU
     memory type. You can try this if your card is Pascal-based but when you try to use -straps or any other memory timing option, the card
     is shown as "unsupported".
  -rxboost <n> Memory refresh rate on AMD cards (0 - default values, 1 - predefined value that should work on most cards, 2 to 100 -
     increasingly aggressive settings). If you want to fine tune the value, you may run the miner with "-rxboost 1", write down the
     corresponding "-vmr" values that are showed in the log file, and then use "-vmr" instead with adjusted values.
  -vmdag <n>    Reset straps to default during DAG generation (default: 1)
  -mcdag <n>    Reset GPU memory clock to default during DAG generation. Nvidia
     only, default: 0 (turned off). This may allow you to set higher memory overclock on your Nvidia cards without risking corrupt DAG
     buffer, which can lead to excessive number of stale shares.
     Under Linux this option will execute the daggen.sh script (if present in the current directory) for each GPU, passing the GPU
     index as the first argument, and PCIE bus ID as second argument. 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, and then  re-apply the overclocking of the Nvidia GPUs.

常规参数:

  -v,--version  Show the version and exit
  -vs Show short version string (e.g. "4.1c") and exit
  -h,--help  Show information about the command-line options and exit

按显卡单独设置的参数

PhoenixMiner 的部分参数既可以为所有显卡设置相同的值,也可以为每张显卡

分别设置不同的值。例如,要为所有显卡指定 -gt 值,可以写

-gt 90;如果想为每张卡指定不同的 GT 值,可以这样写:

-gt 20,15,40,90,90(适用于五卡矿机)。这样第一张显卡的 GT 为 20,第二张

为 15,依此类推。如果指定的值少于显卡数量,其余显卡将使用该参数的

默认值。

还可以用另一种更灵活的方式为不同的显卡指定不同的值。

用例子说明最清楚:-cclock *:1100,1-3:1090,4:1300 —— 这里将所有显卡的核心频率

设为 1100 MHz,但第 1 到 3 张卡设为 1090 MHz,第 4 张卡设为 1300 MHz。

冒号(:)前面的部分是选择器,用于选定要应用冒号后面数值的显卡。选择器可以是:

  - single GPU index: e.g. 5:1000 sets 1000 for the 5th GPU
  - range of GPU indexes: e.g 2-5:1200 sets 1200 for the GPUs 2,3,4, and 5
  - asterisk, which sets the value for all GPUs
  - label amd or nvidia: e.g. amd:1090 sets the value to 1090 for all AMD cards
  - arbitrary string that starts with letter and can contain letters, numbers and asterisks,
    which is matched with the GPU name as listed by PhoenixMiner. Example: gtx*1070:+500 will
    set value +500 for all cards which contain 'gtx' and '1070' in their names with anything
    between them. This will match 'Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070' but not 'Nvidia GeForce 1070'.

注意:如果有多个选择器匹配同一张显卡,只有最后一个生效。

示例:-cclock *:1100,1-4:1090,2:1300 会把第 2 张卡设为 1300;第 1、3、4 张卡设为 1090;

其余显卡的核心频率设为 1100 MHz。

此外,在挖矿软件运行时,可以使用以下交互命令——

在控制台窗口中按下相应的按键:

  s   Print detailed statistics
  1-9 Pause/resume GPU1 ... GPU9 (if you have more than 9 GPUs, type 010 for card 10, 011 for card 11, etc.)
  p   Pause/resume the whole miner
  +,- Increase/decrease GPU tuning parameter
  g   Reset the GPU tuning parameter (and stop auto-tuning if active)
  x   Select the GPU(s) for manual or automatic GT tuning
  z   Start AMD auto-tune process
  r   Reload epools.txt and switch to primary ethash pool
  e   Select the current ethash pool (if you have more than 9 pools in the list, type 010 for pool 10, 011 for pool 11, etc.)
  d   Select the current dual-mining pool
  y   Turn on AMD Compute mode if it is off on some of the GPUs
  c   Reload the config.txt file (some settings require restart, see -cdmrs option above for details)
  h   Print this short help

配置文件

请注意,PhoenixMiner 支持与 Claymore 以太坊双挖挖矿软件相同的配置文件,

因此现有的配置文件无需任何修改即可使用。

除了命令行参数,你也可以通过配置文件来控制 PhoenixMiner。

如果不带任何参数运行 PhoenixMiner.exe,它会在当前目录中查找 config.txt 文件

并从中读取命令行参数。如有需要,也可以

使用其他名称的文件:运行 PhoenixMiner.exe 时

将该文件名作为唯一的命令行参数即可。

PhoenixMiner 目录中提供了 config.txt 示例文件。

除了在命令行中直接指定矿池,还可以使用另一个配置文件

epools.txt,每行指定一个矿池(PhoenixMiner 目录中提供了

epools.txt 示例文件)。

双挖矿池可以使用 dpools.txt 文件,其格式与 epools.txt 相同,

只是用于第二个币种。PhoenixMiner 目录中提供了 epools.txt 示例 文件。

请注意,epools.txt 在每次启动挖矿软件时都会加载,而 dpools.txt 文件

只有在命令行中用 -dpool 指定了双挖矿池,或者至少添加了

-dcoin blake2s 命令行参数时才会被读取。

使用 config.txt 和 epools.txt/dpools.txt 文件的好处:

- 如果有多台矿机,可以通过这些文件直接复制粘贴全部设置

- 如果通过远程控制管理矿机,可以通过上传新的 epools.txt 文件来更换矿池,

或者上传新的 config.txt 文件并重启挖矿软件

来修改挖矿软件的参数。

远程监控与管理

PhoenixMiner 在远程监控和管理方面完全兼容 Claymore 双挖挖矿软件的协议。

这意味着你可以使用任何支持 Claymore 双挖挖矿软件的工具,

包括 Claymore 双挖挖矿软件包中自带的 "Remote manager" 程序。

我们正在开发功能更强大、更安全的远程监控与控制功能,以及

控制中心程序,它能让你更好地管理远程或本地矿机,并提供 一些

独特功能来提高挖矿收益。

硬件控制参数

关于硬件控制参数的一些重要说明:

最新的 Nvidia 驱动需要以管理员身份(Linux 下为 root)运行才能进行 硬件控制,因此必须以管理员身份运行

  PhoenixMiner as administrator for the VRAM timing options to work.

使用显存时序参数("-straps"、"-vmt1"、"-vmt2"、"-vmt3"、"-vmr")时,请从 较低的值开始,并确保

  cards are stable before trying higher and more aggressive settings. You can use "-straps" along with the other options. For example
  "-straps 1" "-vmt1 60" will use the timings from 1st strap level but -vmt1 will be set to 60 instead of whatever value is specified by
  the 1st strap level. In such case the "-straps" option must be specified first.

一般来说,"-vmt3" 参数对算力影响不大,所以请先尝试调整其他 参数。

即使是同一型号的显卡,合适的显存时序参数也可能差别很大。因此你可以(而且

  probably should) specify the VRAM timing options per-GPU.

在 Windows 下,硬件控制参数同时支持 AMD 和 Nvidia 显卡。在 Linux 下, 大多数参数仅支持 AMD 显卡。

如果只指定一个值(例如 -cvddc 1150),它将应用于所有显卡。要为每张卡指定不同的值, 可以这样写(用逗号分隔):-cvddc 1100,1100,1150,1120,1090。如果 指定的值少于显卡数量,其余显卡将使用默认值。

我们只在较新的 AMD 显卡上做过测试(RX460/470/480/560/570/580, Vega, Radeon VII, RX5700)。较老的显卡效果可能有所不同。

AMD 的区块链测试版驱动表现很不稳定——电压经常根本设置不上, 或者过一段时间又恢复默认值。为获得最佳效果,请使用较新的 AMD 驱动:18.5.1 或更高版本,其中大部分问题已修复。

-tmax 指定显卡开始降频的温度(因为风扇已经压不住温度了)。

如果同时使用其他程序进行硬件控制,很可能会发生冲突。请使用 GPU-Z 之类的工具来监控电压等参数。MSI Afterburner 似乎也能正常配合(因此 可以用它控制 Nvidia 显卡,而 AMD 显卡交给 PhoenixMiner 控制)。

这一点显而易见,但还是要说明:如果某组频率/电压在第三方程序中设置时会导致崩溃/卡死/错误 份额,那么通过 PhoenixMiner 的硬件控制参数设置时, 同样会不稳定。

如果 PhoenixMiner 的硬件控制参数用起来有问题,而你之前用其他工具(MSI Aftrerburner、 OverdriveNTool 等)控制频率、风扇和电压且效果满意,那么最好继续使用它们,不用理会 PhoenixMiner 的硬件控制参数(或者只使用其中一部分,其余继续用第三方 工具调整)。

常见问题

Q001:为什么又出了一款挖矿软件?

   A: We feel that the competition is good for the end user. In the first releases of PhoenixMiner
   we focused on the basic features and on the mining speed but we are now working on making our
   miner easier to use and even faster.

Q002:可以在同一台矿机上运行多个 PhoenixMiner 实例吗?

   A: Yes, but make sure that each GPU is used by a single miner (use the -gpus, -amd, or -nvidia
   command-line options to limit the GPUs that given instance of PhoenixMiner actually uses).
      Another possible problem is that all instances will use the default CDM remote port 3333,
   which will prevent proper remote control for all but the first instance. To fix this problem,
   use the -cdmport command-line option to change the CDM remote port form its default value.

Q003:可以在同一台矿机上同时运行 PhoenixMiner 和其他挖矿软件吗?

   A: Yes, but see the answer to the previous question for how to avoid problems.

Q004:什么是过期份额?

   A: The ethash coins usually have very small average block time (15 seconds in most instances).
   On the other hand, to achieve high mining speed we must keep the GPUs busy so we can't switch
   the current job too often. If our rigs finds a share just after the someone else has found a
   solution for the current block, our share is a stale share. Ideally, the stale shares should be
   minimal as same pools do not give any reward for stale shares, and even these that do reward
   stale shares, give only partial reward for these shares. If the share is submitted too long
   after the block has ended, the pool may even fully reject it.

Q005:为什么 PhoenixMiner 报告的过期份额比例低于

  矿池显示的比例?

   A: PhoenixMiner can only detect the stale shares that were discovered after it has received a
   new job (i.e. the "very stale") shares. There is additional latency in the pool itself, and in
   the network connection, which makes a share stale even if it was technically found before the
   end of the block from the miner's point of view. As pools only reports the shares as accepted
   or rejected, there is no way for the miner to determine the stale shares from the pool's
   point of view.

Q006:找到份额时 PhoenixMiner 显示的 "actual share difficulty"(实际份额难度)

  是什么意思?

   A: It allows you to see how close you were to finding an actual block (a rare event these days
   for the most miners with reasonable-sized mining rigs). You can find the current difficulty for
   given coin on sites like whattomine.com and then check to see if you have exceeded it with your
   maximum share difficulty. If you did, you have found a block (which is what the mining is all
   about).

Q007:PhoenixMiner 统计中的 "effective speed"(有效算力)是什么意思?

   A: This is a measure of the actually found shares, which determines how the pool sees your
   miner hashrate. This number should be close to the average hashrate of your rig (usually a 2-4%
   lower than it) depending you your current luck in finding shares. This statistic is meaningless
   in the first few hours after the miner is started and will level off to the real value with
   time.

Q008:为什么矿池显示的有效算力低于 PhoenixMiner 显示的算力?

   A: There are two reasons for this: stale shares and luck. The stale shares are rewarded at only
   about 50-70% by most pools. The luck factor should level itself off over time but it may take
   a few days before it does. If your effective hashrate reported by the pool is consistently lower
   than the hashrate of your rig by more than 5-7% than you should look at the number of stale shares
   and the average share acceptance time - if it is higher than 100 ms, try to find a pool that is
   near to you geographically to lower the network latency. You can also restart your rig, or
   try another pool.

故障排除

P001:我用的是 AMD RX470/480/570/580 或类似显卡,过去几个月里

    挖 Ethereum 和 Ethereum Classic 的算力大幅下降!

     S: This is known problem with some cards. For the newer cards (RX470/480/570/580), this can be
     solved by using the special blockchain driver from AMD (or try the latest drivers, they may
     incorporate the fix). For the older cards there is no workaround but you still can mine EXP,
     Musicoin, UBQ or PIRL with the same speed that you mined ETH before the drop.

P002:我的 Nvidia GTX9x0 显卡在 Windows 10 下算力非常低!

      S: While there is a (convoluted) workaround, the best solution is to avoid Windows 10
      for these cards - use Windows 7 instead.

P003:我用的是 Nvidia GTX970(或类似)显卡,挖 Ethereum 或

     Ethereum Classic 的算力暴跌!

      S: GTX970 has enough VRAM for larger DAGs but its hashate drops when the DAG size starts
      to exceed 2 GB or so. Unlike the AMD Polaris-based cards, there is no workaround for this
      problem. We recommend using these cards to mine EXP, Musicoin, UBQ or PIRL with the same speed
      that you used to ETH before the drop.

P004:使用 Windows 远程桌面(RDP)时,看不到部分显卡(或它们的风扇转速和温度)!

      S: This is a known problem with RDP. Use VNC or TeamViewer instead.

P005:在 Windows 10 上,点击 PhoenixMiner 控制台窗口内部后程序会卡住!

      S: This is a known problem on Windows 10, related to so called "Quick Edit" feature of the command
     prompt window. From PhoenixMiner 2.6, the QuickMode is disabled by default, so you shouldn't experience
     this problem. If you still, do, read here how to solve it: https://stackoverflow.com/q/33883530

P006:PhoenixMiner 启动后立即停止工作,最后一条消息是 "debugger detected"

      S: If you have only Nvidia cards, add the option -nvidia to the PhoenixMiner.exe command line.
     If you have only AMD cards, add the option -amd to the command line.

P007:PhoenixMiner 在分配 DAG 缓冲区后报错并退出。

      S: If you have more than one GPU, make sure that your Windows page file minimal size is set to at
          least (N x DS + 4) GB, where N is the number of GPUs, and DS is the size of DAG in GB (about 2.9 GB around
          January 2019 for ETC and ETH). For example, if you have 10 GPUs, you need 10 x 2.9 + 4 = 33 GB minimal
          size of the page file. Note that this will increase as the DAG sizes increase. If you are using -clkernel 3, for each GPU add size of
          the DAG twice instead of once (e.g. for 3 GPUs mining with -clkenel 3 you will need 3 x 2 x 2.9 + 4 = 21.4 GB minimal page file size)

P008:DAG 纪元 (epoch) 切换时挖矿软件有时会崩溃。

      S: During DAG generation, the GPUs are loaded more than during the normal operation. If you have
     overclocked or undervolted the GPUs "to the edge", the DAG generation ofter pushes them "over the
     edge". Another possible reason for the crash (especially if the whole rig crashes) is the higher
     power usage during this process. You can lower the DAG generation speed by specifying the -lidag
     command-line option. The possible values are 0 (no slow down), 1, 2, and 3 (max slowdown).
     In order to check if your rig would be stable during DAG generation, run it in benchmark mode
     by specifying the -bench 210 command line option. Then every time when you press the key 'd'
     the miner will advance to the next DAG epoch, and you will be able to see if it is stable during
     multiple DAG generations. If it isn't you can try to alter the -lidag and -eres command line options
     until the desired stability is achieved.

P009:挖 ETC 或 ETH 时挖矿软件无法创建 DAG 缓冲区

     S: The versions of PhoenixMiner before 4.2 only support DAG epoch up to 265. Both ETC and ETH has reached epoch 266 already. To ensure uninterrupted operation, please upgrade to 4.2.
         PhoenixMiner 4.2 supports DAG epoch up to 330, and PhoenixMiner 4.5 supports DAG epoch up to 450.
