How to Improve Hash Rate

[beagle1977]

Hi,
I am new to mining and have a GTX 1070. Can anyone give me suggestions on how to improve its hash rate? Not that it is bad right now but of course, if i could make it better and more consistent, it would be useful. Please do let me know.

it depends on what miner you are using, that you may adjust its intensities, however, for Most Nvidia, just play around with Overclocking and underclocking using MSI afterburner.

Thanks for the reply. I am using the EWBF miner. I havent done any overclocking or underclocking as yet. Should i do it? If yes, can you point me to some tutorials on how it is done?

Thanks.

install MSI afterburner, download the app from their official website, https://www.msi.com/page/afterburner

you can play around with with your own settings like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp6RdF7q5mo

If you use Windows, you can use afterburner.
If you use Ubuntu, you can use nvidia-smi (terminal).

But the most efficiency (depends of your electricity costs) is to limit the GPU power consumption.
Depends of the model, but the GTX 1070 can be setup to 115 W or even 100 W , instead 150 W, with a very few less hashrate.

Thanks a lot to all you guys. have been most helpful

I presume you are mining ZEC?

In practice this one wants more core clock then memory. Thus your goal should be to maximize core overclock.

You need to decide how much power do you wanna use via TDP%. Some will go for 100% higher sols but also higher power consumption. Some will stay at 70-80% with lower power consumption.

Good starting point would be https://whattomine.com/coins/166-zec-equihash where you just insert your sols, watts and electricity cost and you get calculated expected profit. This way you will see what is the optimum Watts and sols for you.

Hi,
Thanks for the guidance. I am currently mining hush..but i do understand your point and with both ZEC and hush using the same algos, i think they should act similar.
