Electroneum mining with MSI GeForce GTX 1060 AERO ITX 3 GB- having issues.

[bridaowlish]

I have a question for you guys about mining and gpu settings. I am really confused right now and i don't know how to search this problem on the google. And i hope i open this topic right section.

If you do understand that kind of problems please help me.

I am using CCMINER 2.2.4 for Nvdia gpus by tpruvot for Electroneum mining in Nanopool.

My GPU is MSI GeForce GTX 1060 AERO ITX 3 GB. Normally in MSI's GPU stress test, recomended overclock settings are about 1715 mHz, and at that time GPU heat  over 55 degrees and fan works. But it's just in the test, i am not using the gpu with overclock settings, i am using normal settings.

But when i run the ccminer and started mining, GPU clock increases to 1940 mHz and however gpu's heat was 45 degrees and fan was not working. I can't understand it really. By the way, this settings that i am talking about was OVER overclocked and not recomended, i mean that GPU clock was 1940 mHz and Memory clock was 3803 mHz!

Why the ccminer using the gpu with unnormal and unauthorized settings? Is that normal thing? And why the gpu wasn't get heat with this high settings?!
I hope you will understand that kind of problems. Because i'm worried about GPU's future and healt.

Thanks already.

You should use MSI Afterburner to adjust your clock / memory and Fans

But cryptonight is not the best algo to use with 1060
Try another algos, like equihash, you will have better income $$$

thank you for your response but English is not my first language because of that i suppose you misunderstood. :/

What i wonder is can the ccminer or any other mining program change the clock settings of my gpu by itself?

And yes i am already using MSI Afterburner but i have not increase my core clock. If I do not make any changes, when I turn on the miner program, the settings increase automatically and it goes up to very high levels.

Your card have boost to increase the clock when pushed to 100%, if temperature is fine, the card will boost

It's normal man, don't worry

Your card is safe
And another thing is, when (if) temperature increase a lot, like 90º, card will reduce clocks to prevent damages

So, it's normal your card have some variation on clock, all my cards have this variation
