Final result
6x1070 rig, 2650sols/s 145/590 @60% tdp, had to reduce OC a bit to be stable. solver 0 forced, the best so far. Multiple instance of the miner seems to make it unstable now, with 3 it's totally unstable, with 2, it's pretty stable, but don't get more sols than with 1 instance. so about 2/2.5% gain from 0.0.1b
Can I ask what 1070 cards you are using? Thanks Yes of course 6x EVGA GTX 1070 FTW, 60% TDP (about 110w per card, nvidia-smi, 830w @ wall) @m1n1ngP4d4w4n - may I ask - what motherboard/processor combo are you using to get (6) 1070's to run? I have had no luck with (6) card rigs. Thanks - pokeytex Man! Most miners use AsRock H81 Pro BTC or H97 Anniversary for 6 cards but most mobos with 6+ PCIE are good. Though some had problem on Z170 mobos... Nvidias (6) are easy even with Win 7. @nocab72 & @AzzAz - thank you for the information. I am running (2) Asus Crosshair V mobos with quad core AM3+ processors. I have (12) 1070's but could not get more than 5 to work per board. I am running Windows 10 Anniversary edition - 64bit. I would love to get them all humming on the same board. I use EVGA 1300 Watt Gold psu's.

Once recognized - has been rock solid (except when I push the OC settings too far, lol). =) Kyle

That mobo can do max 4 unpowered and others must be powered ( and use that molex on mobo ). Pro BTC has 2 molex's on board so can handle all 6 unpowered but even that is not reccomended. w10 must recognize all 6 cards from start if all is ok.

Once recognized - has been rock solid (except when I push the OC settings too far, lol). =) Kyle Try plugging one card directly into the bottom PCIe slot on the Motherboard. Use the 5 4-pin molex adapters with your raisers if you can avoid using any additional adapters you should as they can just cause problems. Also check for bios updates to see if any are related to your issue as well. Depending on how the rest of your system draws that power supply might be a little light as well with little room for overhead and degradation. It puts out about 1150W at the load from your video cards alone which is roughly 900W. A general rule is to use 80% of the total power output so in your case that would only be ~959w.

Thanks - pokeytex Hey, Ok so my 10 rigs are like so 6 x EVGA geforce GTX 1070 FTW Gaming ACX 3.0 - 8 GB (2x8pin power) 6x PCI-E Riser USB and powered version 006c (6pin power) 2x FSP Fortron Hydro G 750 - 750W Intel Celeron G1820 2.7 GHz ASRock H81 Pro BTC R2.0 Kingston SSDNow UV400 - 120 Go HyperX Savage 8 GB DDR3 (2x4GB) W10 anniversary edition x64 Drivers 372.19 but will upgrade to 372.33 today. I choose dual psu rig because it doesn't take much more room, allow for dual fan cooling from below because i turned them toward the gpu's, more cables than solo psu so less money for added adapters, more power lines, more stable, consume less overall because able to hit the sweet 50% load spot that allow maximum psu efficiency, and cost 60% of the price of a 1300W psu, so money saved here too. one psu power the whole motherboard and drives (mobo + ssd) all the motherboard added connectors for power of PCI are also on that psu, and 2x GTX 1070 + own risers + added fans second psu power the remaining 4 gpus + their risers. both psu load is the same (1% variance) and well splitted across all power rails. Sweet spot running those rig is about 60% TDP (about 110w per gpus) and different overclock depending on algo, for equihash (zcash & fork) i used to run +150/+600 but with latest EWBF that exploit everything a bit better, i had to tone it down for stability @ 145/590, been stable all night across all rigs, for an added ~2.5% average more hash (~2585 > 2650sols/s) with Solver 0 and one EWBF instance.

Hey,
Ok so my 10 rigs are like so
6 x EVGA geforce GTX 1070 FTW Gaming ACX 3.0 - 8 GB (2x8pin power) ....
EVGA 1070 FTW not good choise for mining. I used same card for 4 monthes and they are nearly fired.

choosing 2 x 750w cost more than a single 1000watt, like 33% more, yeah you get the cables but i don't think it's worth it anyway...
with 1000watt i can run 6 x 1070
Depend on the price you get, i got those psu in bulk for 75€ each, that's 150€ for 1500w of power, no need to add either 30/40€ of additionnal cabling to power everything, as i have 2x8pin gpu's it added fast. 1000w psu, when i was building those seemed to me a little too low, because i didn't knew @ the time @ how much TDP i would run them (pascal card were kinda rare in mining, so not much infos), 1000w even @ 60% that's 83% load, you lose efficiency after 50% load on a psu (about 3-5% after 50% until 80-90% depending on PSU) so the idea was to get at least 1200/1300w psu that are bare minimum 250€ here, and it would still need added cabling for an additionnal 25/30€. EVGA 1000W is 160€ here, there is cheaper alternative @120€ like lepa, but i didn't wanted to use subpar psu to save a few bucks. Also taking the risk that 1000w would over time cost me more because of the lost efficiency (3-5% per rig that add up fast) and also give me no alternatives if i needed more power or adding one more card. Also risking electrical stability overloading specific psu rails. so 150€ worth of psu, no added cabling (aside from the 5€ psu link), stability and such, seemed @ the time, a pretty good idea, and i still think i did the right choice, to keep the cost low. And i had so far 0 hardware issue across 10 rigs (burned cable, gpu issue, and so on) For different people, depending on their country, their own situation, electricity cost & all, things could be different, just giving out my experience, calculations and thinkings @ that time, not saying people should do the same. EVGA 1070 FTW not good choise for mining. I used same card for 4 monthes and they are nearly fired.
Well so far 60 cards, rock stable. so crossing finger ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) How the --log option works? How should i add it to make a logfile.txt for example?
Use miner --help, you will see the log option, for now you can't choose a log name, only log level, that will create a miner.log.

Also enough for (3+3 gtx 1070).
