Title: Only GPUs 2, 3 and 7 are slowing down!? Post by: mensa1984 on October 01, 2017, 01:44:24 PM Hello,
in my 4 Rigs I am using 8 x NVIDIA 1060 (from different manufacturers) at each rig and overclocked every GPU a little bit using MSI Afterburner (Power Limit 65%, Temp Limit 75, Core Clock +80, Memory +750). I am getting around 24 MH/s at each card when mining ETH. The problem is, that after some hours or days only GPUs 2, 3 and 7 (GPU range is 0 - 7) are slowing down to around 10 MH/s or even less. First I thought, that I overclocked exactly that cards too much! But then I recognized, that on all 4 Rigs it is the same behavior: Only GPUs 2, 3 and 7 are slowing down from time to time. I thought I could solve this by disabling or lowering OC settings for exactly that cards. But that does not help. The problem appears again after some time. So I think, that any other card(s) is/are overclocked too much and slows down exactly GPU 2, 3 and 7. But why exactly always that cards? And how can I find out which cards are the problem to lower their OC setting? Does anyone have a solution for this or maybe the same behavior? Why is this always 2, 3 and 7??

But how should I find out which cards could I overclock how much, when always GPU 2,3 nd 7 get slow and not the one which I did overclock too much!? Title: Re: Only GPUs 2, 3 and 7 are slowing down!? Post by: BHTeam on October 01, 2017, 04:11:13 PM well, start card by card and find the sweet spots for each card.
Title: Re: Only GPUs 2, 3 and 7 are slowing down!? Post by: mensa1984 on October 02, 2017, 06:47:09 AM Do you think that higher power limits will allow higher mem clock settings?

But how should I find out which cards could I overclock how much, when always GPU 2,3 nd 7 get slow and not the one which I did overclock too much!? i had similar problem with my nvidia p106-6g gpus on ethos. i have 2 similar rig same gpu mobo only difference memory amount. one of 4g other one 8g. one rig crashes with same config. after that i applied a little different oc settings on crashed rig. apprx. %3 lower but before that you must be sure psu is enough. what about memory? i guess 4gb is not enough for 8 gpu you should insert at least 8 or 16GB Title: Re: Only GPUs 2, 3 and 7 are slowing down!? Post by: BitTeo on October 03, 2017, 01:29:34 PM You try to increment Power Limit , in more case resolving this problem , only with board have problem .

RAM can not be the problem, cause other Rigs with 8 GPUs and also only 4GB RAM are running without problems. |
