    GTX1070ti ignoring Power Limit

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 12:39 AM PDT

    Hello to everybody,

    ​

    I've got a rig with 6x1070ti.

    In general, everything works fine. However, I've just noticed a problem:

    ​

    1 of the 6 cards (they are all the same) is completely ignoring the Power Limit of Afterburner. It doesn't matter if I set it to 70% or 80% or 90% - it always goes up to 100%, which of course is not what I want. (heat, electricity,...).

    Applying any OC doesn't change that - neither core or memory clock at stock or at OC. BUT: the OC of clocks does work and is shown correctly, as expected exactly like the other cards.

    All the cards are mining the same (ETH at the moment), all the other cards work like expected.

    ​

    Any idea what I can do to change that?

    ​

    Greetings

    2080 Ti is a LyraREv2 beast (130 MH/s), shame about the ASICs coming!

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 12:22 PM PDT

    I couldn't find any mining reviews of the 2080 Ti showing all the algorithms I'm interested in so I tested them myself. Nothing extraordinary except for LyraREv2 where it gets 130 MH/s at default TDP and at 70% TDP 109.5 MH/s, 83% faster than my 1080 Ti at the same TDP. Here are the MH/s/W:

    100% TDP (250 W) = 0.52 MH/s/W

    80% TDP (200 W) = 0.58 MH/s/W

    75% TDP (187.5 W) = 0.61 MH/s/W

    70% TDP (175 W) = 0.63 MH/s/W

    60% TDP (150 W) = 0.63 MH/s/W

    Edit: I need to try EVGA Precision as MSI Afterburner doesn't seem to be able to do fan control, so it's sitting at about 65 C with the fan quiet, at 100% I imagine it won't downclock so much: even though it's not very hot, it starts at 1650 MHz (after the spike to 2160 MHz) and settles at 1575 MHz (70% TDP). Also, compared to a 1080 Ti mining Eth with Ethlargement pill, it still doesn't make sense to buy for mining over those, but was interesting to see how good it is at LyraREv2!

    Edit 2: All results are with +100 MHz core, +300 MHz memory.

    Switch windows gpu on the fly?

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 08:48 PM PDT

    I have a card on my win machine that I use for mining when afk but also for gaming.
    If I added a riser to connect another weaker card, I could use the weaker card for windows while I do non-gpu-intensive tasks (movies, 2d games, old 3d) and mine on the powerful one.
    1) Is there a way to quickly switch on the fly what is the "main gpu used by windows", so to temporarily set the weak one as main and tell the miner to use the powerful one ?
    Very few games allow you to pick explicitely which gpu to use, and it's mostly advanced 3d games.
    2) is there a way to bring a gpu consumption to 0 (turn off) or almost 0? Afaik lowering the max power by gpu programs will make it crash, but what if it wasn't the main card? would it make windows crash? would it harm the gpu?

    How to mine MonaCoin Using Nvidia CC Miner and a GPU Mining Rig

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 05:39 PM PDT

    I've done some more calculations and....

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 12:04 PM PDT

    Coming in as one of you guys who went out and bough some hardware to do mining I've recently turned off my mining rigs, and instead I'll be investing the power consumption into buying ETH instead of mining for it. I was able to purchase my mining rigs before the prices went really crazy.

    So, A little recap. I've had a weak little mining rig munching away since January at mining pool hub. Since then i've been able to mine just over 0.5 an ETH.

    What if... instead I had bought my ETH on the exchanges? How much would I have now?

    Considering January 7th is what I decided to purchase some hardware I'll use that as a monthly date for my purchases on the exchanges. I'm not even going to worry about the best time of the month to purchase and just use the 7th as my example date.

    **Clarification: I calculated the amount of electricity I was using last month and it came to approximately $ 100 in one period. So below on the table I'll use $ 100 as the amount of money to be invested.

    Date ETH Cost Invested ETH Bought
    Jan 7 $ 1,114 $ 100 0.09
    Feb 7 $ 735 $ 100 0.14
    Mar 7 $ 751 $ 100 0.13
    Apr 7 $ 384 $ 100 0.26
    May 7 $ 752 $ 100 0.13
    Jun 7 $ 604 $ 100 0.17
    Jul 7 $ 485 $ 100 0.21
    Aug 7 $ 377 $ 100 0.26
    Sep 7 $ 219 $ 100 0.45
    Total ETH 1.84

    Wow.
