Title: Power supply not enough?
Post by: beastking6969 on February 12, 2018, 11:19:02 PM
Specs.
3: 970s
1: 1080
1000 watt psu

So 970s get around 250-270 sols.
I notice one of my cards isn't nearly up to par, running about 170.
I put that card in my gaming pc to make sure it wasn't going bad.

Sure enough, runs great at 270 sols.
Okay. My psu need to be bigger right?

fyi, the other 2 970s and the 1080 perform what they should.
I also run awesomeminer, not sure if that has anything to do with it.

970s 3x165 watt
1080 1x180 watt
+ system
total 750-800watt

If it's gold or platinum PSU it's enough. Try to play with settings with afterburner.

You may also consider to check or replace your USB Risers, it has been seen to some users that it is somewhat linked to low hashrates.

Sometimes this low numbers on one card happens, if that card is a primary card and monitor connects to it.
You can try to make lower intercity in the miner for that card, usually it helps to get stabilize hashrate
