Title: ethOS + NVidia GeForce GTX 1060 6Gb - Improve performance !?
Post by: Johnny_P on February 01, 2018, 11:23:23 AM
Good afternoon,

 First of all I must specified at the beginning that I am a beginner in mining.
 Second, I have an rig made using ASUS Z270-P as motherboard, 16 GB RAM memory, as operating system I use ethOS, and as GPU I use 4 NVidia from Gigabyte (model 1060 - 6Gb). I use wallet made/create on MyEtherWallet and I mine Ethereum Classic (ETC). As pool I use nanopool.org.

The actual performance related to my GPU's (GeForce GTX 1060 6Gb) are resume to 68.1 hash for all 4 GPU's.

For this "performance" I don't change nothing on my default settings.
But I want to change the GPU's performance only under-volt and overclock GPU's without using BIOS modded. So, the settings use for mine are:

 # -----My NANOPOOL Settings - ETC -----
globalminer etcminer
maxgputemp 85
stratumproxy enabled
proxywallet <my_wallet_ID>
proxypool1 etc-eu1.nanopool.org:19999
proxypool2 etc-eu1.nanopool.org:19999
# poolpass1 x
# poolpass2 x
poolemail <my_e-mail>
flags --cl-global-work 8192 --farm-recheck 200
# globalcore 1000
# globalmem 1250
globalfan 85
# globalpowertune 20
# autoreboot false
# custompanel publicsecret
# lockscreen enabled
# globaldesktop disabled
# globalname disabled

How I can change the settings in a way in which to increase the GPU's performance ? Also what command I must use (in terminal) to see the GPU's performance when mine ?

 If somebody from community already have this type of GPU and already have it optimized only with this settings what values/characteristics use ?

 I waiting your feedback with very higher interest your opinion/suggestions/advice !

 Thank you in advance to all community for support.
 Keep in touch !

First of all: Check the manufacturer of your VRAM.

The further course of action depends if your 1060's are equipped with SAMSUNG, MICRON or HYNIX memory.

That said, I'm leaving since I don't have ethOS. But I repeat: First rule for 1060 users: Check your VRAM brand.
Then, maybe then (if its not HYNIX) people can help you.

Good afternoon,

Have somebody any idea about what values I must to add in ethos for my GPU's (NVidia GeForce GTX 1060 6 Gb) to can under-volt my GPU's ? Current I use:

globalcore 2175
globalmem 4500

But I don't know what values and how to reduce energy consumer for GPU's.
I read that this type of GPU's can reach around of 23 Mh/s. Now I obtain only 20 GH/s ! Maybe the "energy" tune will increase hash and reduce energy consumed.

I mine Ethereum Clasic, and I want to mine also Monero.
I can use the same values of overclock for more currency ?

I waiting with very higher interest any advice with feedback or idea.
Thanks to all for support.
