so 35 dream is gone I guess, harder to mod bios on hawaii than rx 4xx/5xx so I'm not touching it.
34+ speeds require core clocks way beyond 1200, that needs more volts = more heat and noise. Just not worth it imo, fun to play with though.
Modding hawaii straps only speeds up equihash and cryptonight, dagger doesn't get a noticeably boost.
About your last remark, had no clue about Be Quiet being a bad choice, but mixing GPUs - well I decided to give it a shot, 'cause price, and it worked out of the box really, but by no means it was meant to be a professional rig.
Haha, it's not a bad choice, it just the most critical component (well after risers) on a mining rig so it really needs to deliver.
Thank you for your time, if you point me to your ETH wallet, I'll send you something.
Happy to help someone who still fights with these old dinosaurs, if you do some research you will find that hawaii is still very profitable mining gpu, maybe even the most profitable single gpu there is. I am afraid that's going to change soon and we are back to maximum power saving...
do you by any chance have a clue why would the 980 Ti overheat to 85*C and throttle, or even 90*C and shut down, while in a riser, but put it in mobo and all is fine? Mining zcash at 74*C in mobo, 500 Sol/s. Riser instant overheat in 10 seconds.
My guess would be a bad riser.
