Title: Unable to get desired hashrate on nvidia 1060 Post by: Rickirs on September 28, 2021, 08:00:21 PM In short:
Memory overlocking has no effect on my cards. Hi have couple of Nvidia 1060 6GBs, I had used them for a brief period in 2018 , was able to get about 19-20 Mhz on cards Hynix memory, around 23 on micron and about 24-25 on Samung with power limit of 80 Watt (was using claymore miner at that time) I have taken them out again and started with phoenixminer, however I am not able to get anything more than 20 , even if I go for 1000+ memory clock, there is merely any effect on any card apart of one with Hynix memory. The card with Hynix memory is showing default 15-16, and when I add +550 to memoryclock , it goes to 18 MH. More than that, it was unstable and still it is. Similar rate is on on lolminer . If I increase PowerLimit to 100W then I can go to 21.5 max on each cards (Hynix around 18.5 MH). What I am missing, I am using Ubuntu 20.2, have enabled overlcocking of cards by modifying xorg.conf file . PS: tried with proprietary nvidia drivers 390, 460 and 470 so fare.

sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=31 --allow-empty-initial-configuration --enable-all-gpus and reboot the system.

May be it was not clear but I have already done that. In my case overclocking is only affecting Hynix but not other cards.

May be it was not clear but I have already done that. In my case overclocking is only affecting Hynix but not other cards. First nearly all 1060 gpu´s can handle the same hashrate (hynix up to 24mh, micron up to 25mh and samsung also 24 - 25mh You know that the nvidia gtx 10x0 series have a tlb failure? This failure reduce Ethash hashrate with the growing DAG. So around 21 - 22mh with 100w is normal at this days. High mem clocks are not needed, you can run it with +400 to +500mhz, more bring nothing today. Recommended miner for gtx 10x0 series is T-Rex or Gminer, because they have the ability to tweak the mem (-mt ..) . Lolminer didn´t have this option, but i recommend this miner for newer AMD and Nvidia cards.

The maximum hash rate is now 23 megahash on these cards. If you want to get such a result, then the power limit must be set to the maximum value. In the MSI autoburner I have a value of 116. Memory 600-1000.

My 1060/p106 run with 4200mhz memory, 1822mhz core clock and 900mv - 925mv with 22 - 23mh and around 24 - 25mh when it switch to Zil epoch 0 Title: Re: Unable to get desired hashrate on nvidia 1060 Post by: FP91G on September 29, 2021, 12:35:41 PM In short: On nvidia 1060 video cards, the hash rate decreases with the growth of the DAG file.Memory overlocking has no effect on my cards.

Now I need to do 100 W in order to get hashrate what are closer to my previous hash rates. So, now instead of 75 W or 80 W , power should be 100W or 110 W .
