Bonjour
I am testing new phi2 algo. Interresting!
I would be glad to contibute to tpruvot and Luxcoin Team work. I am very excited and hope this is the right place to post my experience to help you.
Hopefully you understand my non native English.
I own 5 diffent GPUs connected to an old ASUS P5Q Deluxe Mobo
Power readings approximate from Nvidia Inspector. Which hovers up and down a lot but I tried to integrate by my mind.
I am technician and sound engineer so I know about that. Power readings in Inspector are quite exact to my experience.
1. I noted the aproximate integrated power readings by mining Luxcoin with z-enemy 1.08 as I do sometimes.
2. I had to take down those Overclockings a lot (!) with phi2 for it not to crash. It goes even higher with same settings than for example x11evo.
So the clocks are quite at the max clocks. I know these cards well. Power Limit around 65 - 72 Depends on Card.
Results after some 30-60 minutes testing and three crashes/reboots before writing:
- GPU 1: GTX 970. Bad Elitegroup 970 with weak cooler and Hynix. Same Power use... 105 Watts... 1.65 MH/s...BUT!!!...
....With this algo almost the same hashrate and clocks compared to my second but very good 970! Here with phi2 only around 15% less hashrate than the other EVGA. On other Algos like Equihash it would loose like 30% Hashrate due to thermal throttling I guess.
- GPU 2: Great "Efficient" EVGA GTX 970 FTW ACX 2.0
---> 5% Less Power. Around 107 Watts. 2 MH/s, GPU Clock 1450 MHz. Memory Stock.
- GPU 3: Zotac GTX 1060 3GB Hynix. Power hovers around extremely 50 - 95 Watts. So it is really difficult to say... integrating by my mind... LOL
---> I'd say 65 Watts or even less with some spikes to over 90 Watts. Original LUX: 75 Watts. Around 12% Less Power use. 1.9 MH/s. GPU Clock 2 GHz. Memory -300
- GPU 4: Palit GTX 1070 Jetstream. Perfect GPU! Very Lucky with this card. Readings hover from 75 - 117 Watts...
---> I guess 12-18% less than original Luxcoin. This hovers around to much to integrate by my mind... Sometimes it stays a few seconds around 70 Watts then a few seconds 100 -115.
---> Guessing integrated 80 - 90 Watts. Original LUX: Around 100 Watts. -15% Power use. Hash 3.1 MH/s, GPU Clock: 2 GHz, Memory -300
- GPU 5: ASUS Strix (but good one!) GTX 980ti OC. This allways crashed after a while. I am to lazy now to test more. Probably needs higher Power limit.
---> But it showed great reading before crash: 150 Watts vs 175 Watt Original LUX. Hash 3.22 MH/s, GPU Clock 1370 MHz, Memory stock oc (3300)
So it runs now still stable since I started writing this but without the GPU 5 980ti for now. She is a delicate but nice Queen.
I hope it helps. Wishing good night. cu
