Title: GPU miner using more power than expected. Post by: mfrittman on February 01, 2018, 07:40:52 PM Components:
GPU: 5x Sapphire Pulse RX 580 8 GB 1x Sapphire Nitro RX 580 8 GB Board: Asrock H85 BTC pro R2.0 Processor: Xeon E3-1220L Memory: 4 GB Hynix PC3-12800 DDR3 Risers: VICTONY 6-Pack PCI-E Riser 1x to 16x Fan: Rosewill RCX-Z90-AL PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower 1500W 80+ Gold SSD: Kingspec 90 GB OS: Windows 10 I'm running the Pulse RX 580's at core: ~1440 MHz, and memory ~2150 MHz--no overvolting. The Nitro is a slight bit higher, 1462/2196. I'm running straight Ethash. I'd like to do dual mining, but I'm thinking my power supply won't be able to handle it. I've heard that such a system should run 1000 to 1200 watts. I threw this system on an electricity usage meter and this system is running consistently above 1400 Watts. Does this sound right to you all? |
