1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] dstm's ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.5.7 (Linux / Windows) on: January 07, 2018, 03:06:54 PM
Hey, would there be any chance to add an intensity adjustment value as parameter? i have a card that is mixing mining and simple daily work, on EWBF i could set --intensity 1 and it acts as low priority, like 95% power when idle, and down to 50% when using the GPU on other tasks.
Yup, I'd really appreciate this option too. It makes mining on a main pc much more convenient.

It was requested multiply times, it's somewhat longer on my todo list, will add.


Hello DSTM,

I did an experiment months ago using a Radeon hd 4850 (I know it's an old AMD card, and your miner is for NVidia) with CGMiner's 3.7.2 Intensity, which  goes from 8 to 20, and each increased value doubles the amount of threads used. I found some very interesting results with it: when I overclocked the gpu, I could not use and intensity value higher than 10; when I did the oposite (underclocked the gpu to the lowest value), I could use intensity 14 and actually have better hashrate with 65°C!
I'm a noob on this matter, but if this is possible to implement in your miner, it could be awesome!
