I am using win10 on an older I5, 10 newpac's 2 GS hubs. In my experience any other hub is a gamble if it will work or not due to max amps.
The GS hub can handle it.
Al are starting with an target of 750 Mhz, but auto adjust won't let them go that far. b4 reaching 750 they are already on their own max.
Some are max 325 some are max 650, it differs per stick.
I made some batch files in win10 yesterday, to auto restart cgminer every 24h (86400 seconds)
Posting it he just i case some wants to this too.
-- Do al the things below in the cgminer directory, that is most easy to do. --
Make an run.bat file with the below code in it:
mode con: cols=120 lines=60
echo -------------------------------------------------------
echo script to restart an .bat file after a period of time
echo ------------------------------------------------------
echo:
set runforseconds=86400
set restartinseconds=4
set /a counter=0
:start
start "Miner Window" call start.bat
echo:
echo The software will run for %runforseconds% seconds
timeout %runforseconds%
taskkill /T /F /im cgminer.exe
echo:
echo Restarting the software in %restartinseconds% seconds (%counter%)
timeout %restartinseconds%
set /a counter+=1
echo:
goto start
As you can see, i am calling a second .bat file named "start.bat"
put the code below in this start.bat file:
mode con: cols=120 lines=60
cgminer -o stratum+tcp://sha256.mining-dutch.nl:9996 -u [username] -p [password] --suggest-diff xxx --gekko-newpac-freq xxx [if using no asic boost use this -->]--gekko-noboost [optional after this -->] --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1
exit
ofcourse you have to put your own mining config for cgminer here, like the mining freq you want to use.
(please keep in mind you have to cool with fans if going faster than 100 Mhz ! or if the room is warm you always have to cool your sticks)
These two scripts work together. The first is handling the timing and starting/stopping the second one.
If any questions just ask.
