Title: TDP turning itself down...
Post by: DarrenJC on October 07, 2017, 01:52:46 PM
Ok, been mining for several days on ZenCash.

Running on my gaming PC... just a Zotax GTX 1070 8GB Mini

Not really overclocking much as its my gaming PC. Just Core+100 and Mem+250

Sometimes my TDP will jump down to 75% without me setting it? MSI Afterburner still says 100% but GPU-Z says 75% - All this is while mining.... any ideas?

Can you always give 100% on the job/work someone give to u?
Neither do GPU.. :)

What miner do you use?
What says your wattmeter? Since GPU-Z and Afterburner sometimes shows wrong data.

EWBF 0.3.4b (Zencash on Luckpool)

I dont think its simply displaying wrong data, as it drops my hash rate down to 380~ sols

Figure this out if you can....


My 1070 stays at 100% TDP as long as Ive got a Google Chrome window open... as soon as I close Google Chrome, it goes to 60-70% WITHOUT ME CHANGING ANY SETTINGS
