Just to poop on the party even more - once eth goes PoS, the difficulty of all other coins will jump by around 4x since around 75% of all GPU mining power is doing eth right now.

4x? that would be amazing. But the reality is more like 100x
I don't think you realize how much hashpower is behind ETH right now and how little is behind any other coin

Has anyone here been able to Undervolt their cards's BIOS?
I have a bunch of Nitro+'s and found that they can handle about 950mV but havn't been able to apply it to the BIOS for use on smOS.
Anyone had any luck on this yet?

No problem with that. I've made tutorial, link in my signature.

Sorry that dosen't appear to work. I followed exactly what you did but after flashing it wont boot.
I also tested it with only changing the Core mV but 1 like you did in your video but that casue it not to boot

Im kind of confused by that, you're adjusting the GPU core by 1mV on each interval? I don't see how that's gonna change anything

Took look at this and it only has one with a strap which is like 1 click anyway and another with strap and core clock turned down

Otherwise for one hour it's: your_hashrate / network_hashrate * 3600 / blocktime * coins_per_block

So for example Zec with 20000 sols it's:

20000 / 114250338 * 3600 / 150 * 10 = 0.004201 ZEC per hour.

awesome, thank you very much

Think the title explains it well enough, im trying to calculate coins per hour on ETH and ZEC but haven't found the formula for it, everything on google says use one of the tools, this is not my goal here.

Total coins per hour or your mined coins per hour?

Given a hashrate and network variables how much coins are expected to be mined, excluding things like miner/pool fees, not my real world coins per hour

Hey guys, im looking at buying the EVGA G2 850W but im not sure how to tell if it'll be fine for 24/7 80% load usage.
Im also not sure how to compare it to other psus.
Any pointers on how to compare them?

Ask people that use psu's

The Evga plat 850 p2

The rosewill quark 850 on sale at newer are both better.

The Evga 1300 g2 is a stud but the 850 g2 and smaller are not as good.

I have run Evga plat p2 750 and 850 no problems

And the 750 850 1000 1200 quarks no' worries

Thanks for that list, I've just noticed that the EVGA 850 G3 is a little bit cheap, I assume this is a higher quality product, any idea if it's okay?

I gave you a hint in the other thread. Did you look it up?
Anyway, I asked somebody to send me a vbios from a 570 but didn't get it.
If you would send me a copy I can look to see if the same fix can apply.

Yeah I gave it a shot but im not overly good at that kind of thing, I just PM'd you a link to the BIOS

Would it be possible to include Burst mining into the OS?
I rather like the OS but it's kind of annoying having 1 rig running windows just for burst mining, it would be nice to have it all happen from your OS.
I believe the miner is compatible with Linux without any extra dependencies since it's in C++, in which case I don't think it would overly hard to implement, just add another option along side the Current miners

This is a great tool! Managed to modify the bios (hex edit) of my sapphires nitro+ Samsung memory and now I can add voltage offset.
I found that setting a -150 actually gives -125 after flashing. -125 gives -100 so whatever you set seems to be off by 25mv.

Prepping the rig for linux so I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as how to set a proper fan curve through manipulating the numbers in the fan tab of SRB Polaris.

What version is this? I just downloaded 2.61 but it has a text field for voltages

Hey im trying to use Powerstage but it simply isnt doing anything, I turned it down to 0 and nothing changed, same wattacge at the wall, kept minig as usual.
Rx470's Nitro+ x7 no flashes or other OC's

This is experimental function and doesnt work with some gpus Sad

Unfortunate, but fair enough. Do you mind if I ask what it does internally? is it just adjusting the core voltage?

Hey guys,

So im trying to reduce my power usage since im very close to the limit after doing BIOS flashing but I havn't been able to figure out how to do this when targetting a Linux distro as my OS

My GPU's are Nitro+ 570's

I've tried using SRBPolaris and setting the voltage in there but after applying the bios I noticed that my voltage did not change
I've also tried using the Claymores argument that sets the core voltage but this also had not noticeable effect on Wattage usage or in monitoring software

RX 570 Nitro + 4GB
Changing the VDDCI dosen't appear to do anything

Hey guys,

Im running 2 rigs with 7 GPU's each and everything works fine, with 4G Encoding and display on Onboard.
However, using claymores 9.4 just mining ETH it works fine but when I change to use dual mining one of the rigs drops 4 GPU's but the other works fine.
I have to change it back to single ETH and manually reset the miner before the cards come back

Has anyone experienced this?

Hello.

I want to share with you a simple program to automatically hard-reset your machines if they got stuck.

I'm using Raspberry Pi with 5V relay but you can use any other mini-computer as well (Beaglebone Black, Orange Pi & etc.). I will add better instructions with pictures soon.

Logic is: Ping machines every 33 minutes. If there is no response - Hard-reset.

There is no config file and you should edit the "main.go" file with the info about your machines (name, ip, GPIO pin, info).
Soon I will add web interface for statistics and easier configuration of the machines and binary files.

Additional information and basic instructions are available on github
Link: https://github.com/Kasmetski/auto-hard-resetHello.

Thanks! I'm actually building a very similar thing as an add on for my rig manager so I can do it all from one place, got some good ideas by seeing how you've implemented it.
