My samsung Vega 56 is also suffering from high temps (upper 60s) causing drops in hashrates every now and then. Can you describe how QMS works and if this process can be done manually? I'm interested in automating it by buying your VGA token or membership but i would like to know how it works too.
I've done all the DDU, reinstalling, and reflashing of BIOS mod but still experiencing high temps.
QMS (Quick Miner Start) is the Crypto mining platform which consolidates and automates all known procedures on one easy User Interface, including two monitor windows with registry and real time info of the GPUs on your rig.
The VGA WEB MONITOR linked to QMS, came online 2 days ago so you can monitor your rigs from anywhere in the world, with an email alert service to notify you within max 5 minutes of gpu and/or rig drop.
The reason why we are using Crimson BlockChain and not Adrenalin, is because only this allows QMS to control
ALL CPU/MEM/FAN states either globally/by range or individually per GPU in seconds. This has the same effect as flashing BIOS on the card without the risk of bricking it.
You only need to setup QMS ONE TIME, after that QMS defaults your last settings, miner path COM/ENV settings, saving them along side your own created PowerPlayTables, and
here the uniqueness considering your case:You should not apply the same PPT on all your cards as the silicon lottery and bad thermal paste (which is probably your problem), makes each GPU behave differently thus each GPU or range of GPUs needs a unique PPT to run at max efficiency. With QMS you can create and apply a PPT to a single or more GPUs in seconds and save it for instant application after rig crash/restart.
Once you have created the PPTs for your various GPUS and mined coin setings (eg settings for ETH mining are different to Cryptonight), the QMS DATA folder can be copied over to another rig for INSTANT QMS setup, so you don't have to do the same setup on other rigs. Truly 1 time setup across your whole Vega mining operation.
There are far too many QMS functions, whether user defined or automated, to describe here but i urge you to join our Slack channel for 1on1 support and suggestions from the VGA Dev. Team as well as experienced VGA community members.
If you decide to join the fast growing VGA community before speaking to us, please make sure to follow the explicit instructions on our site to avoid making costly mistakes that occurred to a couple of our members.
VGA is a community funded project with a ONE TIME membership fee that gives you instant and complete access to all VGA developments present and future.
Cutting miner setup time increases mining time thus profits and your own personal time. No more tedious time wasting.
VGA XMR 0fee pool is currently under inhouse testing and will become available to VGA members only in the coming days.
All info can be found on our site here:
https://vegatoken.org/ Anyone can download QMS for free and enjoy monitoring and various other free4all functions, but for full effect you need to be a member.
note to add:
We are currently coding the VGA All Coin 0fee Miner embedded on QMS which will boost mining speeds by a minimum of 20%, released to members after end of ITO in a couple of weeks (max Q4 2018 or sooner), complementing future VGA Compute Drivers and BIOS for warp speeds not imaginable yet.
Ofcourse you could just take the GPU apart (bricking risk) apply new thermal paste and hope that works with the a ppt created by someone else that defaults to 10rpm fan making it easier for one to toast the GPU.
Tradeoff = $700-$1000 per GPU vs a 0.5ETH one time fee for all VGA tech. present and future.
Thank you for the interest, and please feel free to ask our members of their experience so far, being part of the ever growing VGA community.
