How will this change the world of mining?? GTX 1080 / 1070

[PovertyByte]

I was getting 25MH/s out of the box with my GTX 1070 FTW, 24 really when you factor those weak hashes.

Hardly even tweaked it and I already got it to 29MH/s running very steady, like I mean it is beautiful seeing how consistently it is reporting hashes on the spot and stable. MSI Afterburner is reporting the boost clock a good 300mhz above what this card is supposed to be. I think it might be an error. The current settings I have it on is -115 on the core clock to match the FE and I upped the memory clock by 500.

Power % in Afterburner says 70 out of 150 (however this specific 1070 has a TDP of 215 assuming that is supposed to be wattage)

I'm going to have some fun tweaking this one. I do not have a wall meter to estimate the wall draw from the card.

Based on linux hash rates, It seems safe to say my windows 10 performance is living it up.

Would anybody be able to help me with setting up Genoil 1.1.7?

Getting no help in this thread for ethereum set up let alone anything. All I can find when searching are guides for other miners or older versions of Genoil that have different files than what I have.

download windows 10 annversary, unistall your previous drivers, let windows install the video drivers, run 1.1.7 genoil, you're done

I did all of it but those simple steps are missing the part about the .bat files that actually ties the miner to a pool and wallet address. Ultimately my problem was one character on the wallet address.

Well I just realized what a fucked up bitch these nvidia voltage regulations are.

Underclocking the GPU core increases the power that you need because the driver feeds the chip a higher voltage. Therefore its useful with the current genoil miner to increase the gpu core speed to save some power( ), because the mining gpu speed is anyway locked at 1620 (atleast for my card) and reduce the power limit to 50%.

Core Clock -400 -> Voltage 1.043 V -> 77% TDP = 146 W
Core Clock +150 -> Voltage 0,76 V -> 54% TDP = 102 W

Have fun, it's really that retarded..

fyi

Sounds a bit crazy  Guess I would check this card on another computer, different drivers.
I could see the logic here if it happened in some pre-set ranges.
Hard to believe voltage always goes down if you overclock. Have you checked this with some step values, lets say by 10?

It's caused by the Voltage/Frequency curve in MSI Afterburner. You can access it with ctrl+f.

Anyone tried to set 6 x 1070 up? I'm getting "not enough resuources for 6th card"?

Hmm it's @ 64000 but no help. 16GB RAM, Z170GAMING K3 mobo, Pentium G4400, 1250W Gold CHIEFTEC, Win 7 and 368.81 drivers may be issue?

probably the mobo, wattage is more than enough, cpu is hardly a factor and win 7 and drivers are ok since i was using those before switching to win 10

p.s. you have a page file of 64gb?

[AzzAz]

Tried all from 8000 up to 64000. That helped a little. I think it is mobo not giving enough to pcie-s, will try with 2 unpowered and 4 powered risers.
 These cards look sensitive there... ( uh - and I am mining since early 2013 )

win7 does NOT support 6 cards by default. For AMD cards you have special 6gpu mod. You should install win10, it supports 6 gpu by default, or try linux. Also not every MB can support 6 cards, no mather it has 6 pcie slots

Maybe I should say that I have several 6 cards setups, win7 and Nvidias ( 750Ti, 960, 970, 980 and 980Ti, even mixed ) all working ( some 1 year already ) but got stuck on 1070 now. Will try H81 BTC and w 10 and post here. That will eliminate mobo and OS problems...

Hello all!

Is the Asrock H97 or Asrock B85 able to mine with 6 GTX 1070? Because I saw some posts with 5 cards working fine, but with errors when adding the 6 card.

[localhostage]

Can someone point me at the binaries for Genoil 1.1.7. I checked his github but only see 1.1.5.

Sorry and thanks!

Thank you so much!

So I finally got Win 10 Anniv Update + 369.09 + Genoil 1.1.7. However my 1080 FE is only mining 20 MH/sec. Is this expected? I'm seeing posts above about the 1070 getting 25. Is my batch file screwed up?

Thanks for looking

1080 has different type of memory. Its actual speed is 1250 vs 2000 in Gtx 1070. May be this is the reason.

[Spiffy_1]

For the people asking about the 1060, I have 5 coming and I'll let you know once they get here since people seem to be less than helpful everywhere.
