Title: Asus Nvidia GTX 1070 - Best Mining Settings? Post by: ramsay_bolton on December 30, 2017, 09:24:25 PM I've recently moved forwards with my GPU mining adding my 6th GTX 1070 to my rig and now I would like to know if anyone has experience with optimising the "Asus Nvidia GTX 1070" using "GPU Tweak". I'd like to optimise my rig yet keeping it stable. Every time I modify the memory power etc... I seem to decrease my mining returns.
I've searched around and not really found much useful information regarding this particular GPU Has anyone got experience in successfully optimising these GPUs or is default best ???

Post by: flipflop.0 on December 31, 2017, 10:37:14 AM I only used afterburner but some advice: first thing to do is checking temperature, if it is too high the cards do not work in boost mode and stick to +-1600 mhz instead of +1900. I've manually set the fan of my gtx 1070 mini to 100%. Check if the voltage is stable or keeps jumping. If temp and volt are stable you can try to slowly change the gpu and mem clock. if you do not mind about warranty, for example if your cards are older, you could also flash a new gpu bios, I got stable voltage and permanent boost simply by flashing, but afterwards had to reduce power limit to 70% to get stable temp.

Title: Re: Asus Nvidia GTX 1070 - Best Mining Settings? Post by: flipflop.0 on December 31, 2017, 01:42:03 PM Depends on your card. I've got a Gigabyte 1070 Mini and went with the BIOS for the Gigabyte Xtreme Gaming. Works flawlessly after optimization, core +50, mem +200 and power target 70%. Its using 150w and I get 15-20% more hash than on stock settings and no fail when switching algos.
I think the most important when choosing the BIOS is that the memory type (e.g. Samsung, Micron) is the same as from your card. I personally think best to go with BIOS from the same brand. Better check some guides on flashing 1070 though. Edit: BIOS I got from here: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?architecture=&manufacturer=&model=GTX+1070&interface=&memType=&memSize=&since= (https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?architecture=&manufacturer=&model=GTX+1070&interface=&memType=&memSize=&since=) Title: Re: Asus Nvidia GTX 1070 - Best Mining Settings?

Title: Re: Asus Nvidia GTX 1070 - Best Mining Settings? Post by: ramsay_bolton on December 31, 2017, 04:56:47 PM Thanks for this information, just installed afterburner and it seems to be working fine with my cards. I wasn't sure if MSI afterburner would work. I'll see if I can optimise with better results using afterburner over a period of time and will post the best values I can find here.
Cards are quite new, so I'm not going with the BIOs mod for now. |
