Title: Lower Sol/s when card is disconnected from monitor.
Post by: CharlesBarette on January 06, 2018, 06:45:17 PM
I currently have a 6 gtx 1070 mining rig mining Zclassic fulltime. I have configured TightVNC so I can see the screen of the miner without having a monitor connected to the gpu.

However, I can get around 470 sols from the card connected to the monitor via DVI. When I disconnect the monitor and look at the screen from the TightVNC viewer(wich is basically like teamviewer), the sol/s tank to like 300...

Is there anyway I can stop this?

use integrated graphics for display purpose
this will lead to gpus being used for mining only
thus no deviation in hashrate

there is something causeing it, honestly I don't experience this on my 6x gpu 1070 rig and it never has a monitor connected
but its also got nothing on the os but the drivers for the gpu and the mining software, something like your tightVNC viewer may be causing an issue, id bet programs like tightvnc use part of the gpu when creating the screen so you can see the desktop, which when apon disconnection of the physical monitor you see a sol tank to something a little low cause the tightvnc screen becomes active
