ccminer bat file question

[sigtmerchant]

Does anyone know if it's possible to set GPU fan speed for one or few GPUs in my bat file (or in the profile)? I was told someone has done this before but there's nothing in help files about it...

No one, really? So much FUD and empty talk nowadays, but almost zero technical help when someone needs it...

I've played with mining long years ago and I remember that cgminer had such setting. I don't know about ccminer though.
However, I've googled a little and maybe this would be of help for you. It looks like people use gputool for such settings, from overclocking to fan speed. And, as I read here, if it doesn't work like a charm, a reboot may help.

Thanks! That's something to start with, will try to set things up and test tomorrow.

I just use MSI afterburner for that on all of my GPU rigs.   Then you don't have to learn how to handle it with each different software miner if you switch miners or coins.

look up nvsmi.  its in the nvidia folder;  it gets installed with the driver.  you can use it to manually set fan speeds via command line, so just have it execute before your ccminer command.


More on the nvsmi utility in the batch link in my sig.  may be a link or two deep, but its the link about forcing P0 state.  Probably the original batch thread linked in the one in my sig....

I use AB too but lately it started acting funny on one of my rigs - resetting or not remembering settings etc, that's why I am looking for another solution.

Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I know nvsmi only works with 9xx generation of cards, not with 10xx series. I used it before for my GTX970's.

sorry, I was mistaken, I used nvidiainspector.exe

Its a standard downloadable utility...

example:
nvidiaInspector.exe -setFanSpeed:0,80   

Sets device 0 to fan speed 80.

Cheers.
