its not overheating. and it was working perfectly until the power down toady.
even now im reinstalling the drivers again , it gave bsod after 1 hour.


The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck.  The bugcheck was: 0x00000116 (0xffffd48a4ea880f0, 0xfffff80af3d0fc7c, 0xffffffffc0000001, 0x0000000000000003). A dump was saved in: C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP. Report Id: 0f4ed64f-a785-4cac-bd28-524cc1a6dd44.
42  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / 10x Vega 56 BSOD on: May 07, 2018, 11:33:31 PM
Hello guys , today I encountered a weird problem.
Power went down to the site where I had like 20 rigs , all of them came back when power came back on and all of them started mining again without any problems.
All of them except my 10 x vega 56 rig , that has been mining for 2 weeks.
Power went down adn when it came back up , I started the miner and it would BSOD after some time.
I m using adrenalin 18.3.4 . I removed the drivers , I put the latest , I started mining , the same problem.
I put back 18.3.4 , the same problem. I dont knwo what to do , after some time , BSOD.
I m mining CryptoNight with cast xmr , I m overclocking with OverNDrive Tool, by applying the settings and then diabling/enabling the gpus.
My settings are :

If anyone has any idea what to do I'm all ears.
thanks

Thanks , do you have discord or something?
I ve been mining eth/monero/equihash on miningpoolhub but I wanna explore this new coin research thing.
I went to RVN 1 week before it got listed on whattomine , it was pretty good until that moment.
I'm trying to find something similar.
Thanks

Good morning all. Sorry for the delay, work has been very busy leaving little time for my personal stuff.

I have released 0.7.4 with a fix and hopefully a little more stability!

Excellent, Haven now works perfectly, getting a glitch with Turtlecoin though, says it cannot find TRTL at any exchanges, but its listed at Tradeogre. Here's my config.json for it.

{CoinFullName: "Turtlecoin", CoinShortName: "TRTL", Algo: "CryptoNight-Lite", BlockReward: 29428.03 , BlockTime: 30, BlockExplorer: "https://trtl.semipool.com/api/network/stats"}
I couldnt add haven , it doesnt take the block explorer.

does anyone still dual mine? or is it dead?

In my past experience was not worth it. More power used. More heat generated. Small extra profit. Shortens life of the video cards.


For what's it worth, I totally agree.

It might have been profitable to dual mine in the past, and possibly still so if you happen to have free power, but I calculated I used about 35% more power.
Worse still, stability dropped, and you pull more power out of your PSUs, which probably pushes them away from optimum efficiency.

Furthermore, solo ETH, I can run 6x RX580 off a single 1000W PSU, and have it sitting at 91% efficiency, (down from 93%). (Costs me 2% loss over time, verses cost of another PSU. Long term, that 2% is going to add up, and 2% would surpass cost of another PSU, so it matters).

Dual mining, I could only run 4x RX580 stable. (I could start claymore with gser 2, with 5x RX580, but had a LOT of interruptions, crashes, freezes etc).

Conclusion: Factoring in 35% additional power consumption costs, plus a 33% increase in the number of PSUs I needed, (plus their losses, (7%) plus further drop in efficiency), it's very hard to see where you'd expect the payback to offset these added costs.

Then, as Jackbox astutely pointed out, you have to factor in the added stress, and reduction in MTBF.

Assuming you're located at higher/lower latitudes, through the winter, assuming you can swap out air, you save costs on cooling. Come summer, you're paying more for cooling. Dual mining was astounding how much hotter the GPUs ran, (last winter), come summer, your fans are working harder to cool.

More costs.

Cool and steady = stable = consistent revenue.

The added down time I hit dual mining, (a considerable loss in itself), was the knife in the back afaic  

It was worth the experimentation, conclusion was clear.
Far more good reasons NOT TO dual mine, and no good reasons for it.
At least in my experience.

Footnote: I made NO extra profit dual mining, even if I ignore the cost instability cost my ETH mining, comparing ONLY the additional power cost, I was loosing 3:1.
(Extra power cost $4, I earned about $1.2 from the other coin).

Revenue is not profit.



Well for the maxcoin if you add it as second coin with 1080ti , you can make extra $1.5 per 10 cards , without any power increase.
At least thats my case.

that's bad news. i figured now that you can get 50 mh for 1080ti , would be nice to add a secondary coin.
i tried with maxcoin but i get $1.5 / 10x1080ti , not very good i would say.
also i ve done some calculations and mining eth is more proffitable than zec or equihash atm.

Hello guys.Im running some vega rigs , and while I managed to go as low as 1200 watts / 8 x vega 56 , I cant do the same for 8 x vega 64.
I'm mining monero , 2000 h/s with a vega 64 , but my total power for the rig is 1450 watts , measured at the wall.
Below are my settings , I tried everything , registry softplay tables ,everything , the lowest I could go 1450 watts / rig , this includes the cpu , motherboard etc.
Does anyone know if its possible to go lower than this? Im running my vega 56 rigs at 1250 watts / 8 cards , measured at the wall so I assume for vega 56 its possible to do something similar.
Thank you

I have the same motherboard and I had a lot of trouble with it to make it work with 7 Gpu.
One trick you can try is to change the m.2 port , only one of them supports PCI-e.
Son try the other one and it should do the trick.
I assume you already changed the bios settings , 4g decoding , pci-e speed.
