In NiceHash Miner enable NVIDIA set p0 state. Then use some third party application for overclocking such as MSI Afterburner and adjust your memory clock.
Low memory clock when running CUDA applications (P2 state) is default design by NVIDIA.
Now my nvidia gfx card disappeared.  Restart your PC. Looks like your driver crashed. |

I friend of mine did exchange there without checking some basic facts first, so I can confirm
THIS SITE IS A SCAM! STAY AWAY FROM IT.

We have around 4 BTCs still in limbo due to some issue with BitGo, but working on it to resolve. The remaining ~595 BTCs were already paid out.

Nicehash miner and excavator down clock my gtx 1080 memory. Ewbf gives me better sol/s. I have to Oc My card +800 on memory (because excavator will bring it down 400, so really im at 5400) to get comparable performance. Pretty annoying, hope they fix that
The downclock is standard feature of all CUDA applications. If you don't like that, talk to NVIDIA. P2 state has lower memory clock than P0 state. To override this, you have to overclock memory. |

So I've been pointing gpu miners at nicehash on and off for past 2 years or so . Done quite well thanx.
Just recently upgraded my hardware.
According to your site you say an Nvidia GTX 1070 will do 435 SOL.
So i now have 2 1070's in one rig and I'm using WIN64 eqm v 1.0.3b and I get 617 sol total or about 308 sol per card.
out of box no tweaks or OC.
That's quite a difference from the 435 sol claimed on your website.
So what am I doing wrong? Though not overclocking I wouldn't have thought that would account for the approx 25% diff.
Have just done some googling and see the 2 instance trick so just started that now as I write.
Each instance is reporting 317 sol so slight improvement but still no where near 435 as you guys state.
Also I run a 750ti that gets 68 sol and a 1050 that does 116 sol all pointed at nicehash using WIN64 eqm v 1.0.3b
I'm thinking/hoping I can do a lot better with my hardware with a few simple tweaks?
Any suggestions? Thanx guys .
We suggest you to use NiceHash Miner. It will auto do best config for your cards. https://www.nicehash.com/?p=nhmintroIf you are more tech guy and like to run miners on your own, then use excavator instead of EQM: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1777827.0To reach optimal mining performance for equihash, reduce TDP, overclock core and overclock memory to the max. 1070 gets even more than 435 sol/s with TDP less than 100%. |

Ahh I don't think we can/ suppose to use our selling hashrate adrress to become our deposit address with nice hash... are we? Lol like some kinda of time travel paradox  Icon If you mine directly to your NiceHash deposit address, you will be paid directly into it (and no BTC transaction is created). We recommend this method for people that also buy hashing power. There are two benefits; you do not have to wait for transaction to become confirmed (as soon as you are credited, you can spend these funds by placing orders) and there are no transaction fees. That's perfect, thanks. I was unaware that there were two wallets, one for mining balance and one for deposit. Makes sense though! Thanks!
There is only 1 wallet provided by us. You can use it for mining as well (we changed that rule several months ago). |

Excavator's API has a pretty interesting minimalist design philosophy, which is refreshingly different from sgminer etc.
I would imagine its merits would become clearer as we add more features and algorithms and develop helper applications that take advantage of it.
As for raw performance, I will do everything I can to make it a top-notch OpenCL miner.
Now that I have more time and resources, I can try things that were previously impossible for me, and I am really excited about that.
so is excavator a closed source product using opensource algos? ... yet no opensourced gpl licence adherence? ... and you are 'happy' to work on a system that breaks the licensing agreements? ... if of course that is the case - which it seems likely it is ... though i could be completely wrong about this - i have yet to see - thats all ... im interested to know how this free windows based miner stands up to that test - especially since nicehash can buy almost any dev they please in the current btc market ... who owns nicehash btw? ... as much as the nicehash service is pretty awesome service by most standards - there is little information about where when and how it was established and who owns it ... i use it - and so does our company - as it IS a good system that has been created here ... but outstanding questions have yet to be answered here as those ive raised - and im more curious than i am anything else ... be that as it may - congrats on the 'job' anyway mate ... nicehash certainly know how to pull in the good devs ... #crysx when it comes to including work/optimisations of other dev's mining code. Currently, it has equihash and pascal algorithms, both developed and based entirely on MIT licenses of various people. zawawa is putting in his own pascal implementation and his own equihash implementation (based on silentarmys MIT license). We are also talking with several devs to include other popular algorithms such as decred, lyra2rev2, lbry and we are aware that if we go down that road, authors of these codes need to make special non-GPL code for us and that costs - and we are fully prepared to pay for that. and so it is ... im fully aware of that ... and as such - i needed confirmation - which you have readily given and not withheld ... this is rare in this day and age of crypto - so one can expect such questions to arise from time to time ... tanx for your openness and honesty with the response ... im still wondering ( this is merely a to amuse my curiosity more than anything at all ) who is the actual owner of nicehash and its servers / segments? ... its a comprehensive and complex system that has been created - and a financially successful one at that - even though the infrastructure does cost ... so i ask this question to satisfy my curiosity as to whether this is a single person - single entity - or a conglomeration of people who actually own and continue to grow this behemoth os a mining system ... kudos to whoever and whatever has set this up ... #crysx It will be revealed soon, but so far I can say that it is two legal companies and a bunch of people and of course, expanding to more and more people. |

New to this. I know there is a 0% fee, but since this is locked to nicehash, basically im supplying mining power for buyers on nicehash correct? So my question is, am I making the BTC equivalent of zcash, that I'd be making if I were mining zcash directly through some pool? Or am I losing a chunk by using this service locked to nice hash Thanks in advanced  For your question - look at http://whattomine.com/ and compare profit beetwen mining on zcash pool and nicehash. There are some difference, but no much. Btw, EQM it "old" miner. Use Excavatorthanks, intrestingly enough i tried it, im getting 432 h/s with excavator on zcash mining. with the EQM i'm getting 460 sol/s, and with EWBF getting 505 sols/s so seems EQM is better for my GTX 1080, and EWBF is the best. Am I reading these numbers correctly? If you launch in low intensity mode (one thread) then yes, you get lower hashing speed. And yes, use excavator, it will give more speed (with high intensity of 2+ threads). |

Not sure if it's my maths or yours, but the scrypt rate doesn't look right (the percentage)  I think the default rate should be around 0.0441 My workings (1000 * 25 / 131639) * (60*60*24 * 65536 * (pow(10,6)) / (pow(2,48))) = 3.82039559 3.82039559 x 0.01155 = 0.04412 This can depend which diff you took. We update diff for our calculation every couple of hours. |

Nicehash what the F are you doing about it....?
We will be updating shortly. You should put that blame onto DCR which is obviously run by a bunch of monkeys, because they did not give us a heads up about the change. Changes like this should be announced way sooner. |

We have problems with BitGo payments (their fault). We are waiting for them to respond.
We are confident this will be fixed soon.
How would they know the exact amount of payable btc if they don't have a history? It was deleted on our dashboard tho.  Well, BitGo's algo is not capable generating this amount of inputs and it crashed somehow. There is nothing we can do but to wait for them to give instructions on how to proceed. Lol, not compatible...? But why do thay have a lot of 04-22 17:55:58 payouts? https://www.nicehash.com/?p=miners&paymentsFor some reason they prioritizing high payouts. This is so sad We do not prioritize anything. Keep in mind that we are paying out to more than 20.000 receivers today. And that is happening in just several minutes of time. Nobody was prepared for such large amounts. But payments are going out as we speak now. And it should be fine. |

In fact, your balances are saved multiple times across various servers in our infrastructure. We have high data redundancy for balances. |

We have identified a large botnet mining on Lyra2REv2. We have already blocked (all) BTC payment addresses and are now in process of blocking IP addresses as well.
WARNING to all botnet owners: Do not mine at NiceHash. We will detect your activity and we will block your payment, your IPs and report your activity to authorities.

I haven't played around with the settings as much as some of you, but my best speed (and OC) is around 648 S/s. Power lim at 120%, +140 core, +500 mem. Temp gets as high as 85c. I think efficiency was somewhere around 2.x - Core was at around 1980 MHz while mem is 5508 MHz. Power draw was around 275W I think. Fan was at around 80%
I found the best efficiency I could do was just leave it at base clock (1480/5005). Dialed the power lim it 63% and leave the core and mem clock at +0. This leaves me with 540 S/s at 3.4 efficiency, 72c (lower fan speed - 42%) and power draw of 157W.
For GTX 1080 Ti, best setting is: +240 core, -300 mem, 60% TDP. You get 630 sol/s (if you keep temps low) at 150 W. I'm only getting around 580 Sol/s with those settings, but efficiency gone up a bit - now at 3.8. If I drop to 58% TDP, I get 563 Sol/s but my efficiency goes up to 4. What are your temps? You will not be able to reach 600+ without properly cooled card. In our experiments, all 1080 Tis go to 620+ with these settings (tested on 6 of them) but it is also true that all are water cooled and have around 40 C working temperature. 67c. The 60% TDP seems to be limiting the clock speed. And temperature, too. Clock is starting to get lower after around 40-45 C. Cool it down to 45 and you will see the difference. Also what we noticed is that slow PCIe interfaces play some role here too; with PCIe 2.0 x1, there is around 10 sol/s missing compared to PCIe 3.0 x1. If you have PCIe 1.1 x1, then you might be loosing even more due to slow interface. |
