Mining Issue

Hi guys,

I have an issue I can't seem to figure out.

I have a Windows 10 rig with 5 Radeon RX 480.

I use Phoenix to mine.

The issue I have is the following and it started about a month ago:

I install the Crimson Relive driver, MSI Afterburner and then atimdag-patcher.

After multiple restarts to complete all these installs I launch the Phoenix bat file and everything goes well… for 1 to 3 days.

Then 1 morning, while doing my usual check up, I realize the mining stopped and phoenix quit (Windows updates are disabled and all the windows settings are set up to leave it on all the time).

When I check atikmdag, it basically reset telling me "found" instead of "already patched".

So I patch again, restart the computer, and the miner now tells me 1 of the gpu has the setclkernel issue. The gpu with the issue is never the same. It can be gpu1, 2, 3, 4 or 5.

So I edit the bat file to put "-clkernel 0", save it and start the miner again and it works fine, except I now lost 100Mh/s. All my GPUs are performing at less than a 3rd of their capacity.

So I use DDU, to uninstall the driver, Reinstall everything, it doesn't work, I repeat the DDU process sometimes once, sometimes up to 3 times and then it works again at full speed… for another 1 to 3 days….

Rinse and repeat.

Any solution?

TIA.
