Finally got the rig to work, it wasnt the drivers or anything, seems my hx1200 is dying, 2x 3060ti and a 5700xt modded hashing happily, nvidia really did an amazing job with their new card lineup (i tried to make the pic to show on the forum but it seems im a bit too dumb... so only a link) see if this worked. you were a newbie it does not post for newbies. I gave you a merit keep posting you will become a jr member and can show a photo

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

So - first time posting here. I bought 4 RTX 3060 TIs - the cheapest ones that I could find - 3 PNYs Uprising and 1 PNY Gaming Revel. I have been fiddling with them for a while now (close to two weeks) but I still haven't found their sweet spots. What I did find is that they need a "ramp-up" sequence to work. This means that I need to start slow (a +900 on memory) and grow every 3 minutes or so with 100 until it gets to +1200. The hash rate is around 60-61-62-63 MH/s - depends a bit on the tweaks. https://imgur.com/KDyZZzzhttps://imgur.com/MJQicZBFor the ramp-up, I created 5 profiles in MSI AB, each one increasing the VRAM by 100 MHz. Then I created a batch file that sets the first profile, then starts the miner as a separate thread, waits 180 seconds and it sets the second profile, waits 180 seconds and it sets the third profile and so on. Yes - there are some bad shares - but they are acceptable from my perspective (1.5% over 22 hours and still haven't found the right spot for the GPUs).

1. Connect the monitor to the Mainboard to avoid work on the Monitor GPU. This causes instability 2. A stable setup should be able to start with the targeted settings. 3. Edit custom curve with the curve editor.
Make a account at simplemining and give it a try there. This helps a lot!!! And its free for a few days when i remember well.
After 22.000 Shares i have around 300 rejected on the GPU with RAM+ 2400. Went back to +2200. So try max RAM 7900.

Yeah my aorus likes ram around 7870. when I top 7900 it errors.

In France there is not a single card available :-/ I will be replacing my 1070ti by 3060ti because of the power consumption. At the current price i can replace my 20 cards splitted in 3 rigs by 10 cards splitted in two rigs and save 800 watts but for that I would need first to be able to buy those damn cards !!!

Your old cards are doing okay mine them till they drop!! Or sell them and wait for a crash. Take a vacation from mining. I am running about 67 cards.. only 3x 3080's and 1x 3060ti. they are super hard to find anywhere .

Thanks for the advice. For #1 - unfortunately, there is no integrated GPU on the motherboard - so I can't do that. I did settle for less RAM overclock (I stopped at +1200 MHz(8200 MHz)) and for the past 11 hours I have 2 invalid shares (out of 2500). Now... About the 3rd tip... It proves to be a pain to figure out. At least MSI AB is a pain to work with - I just settled to set all the cards at 65% power and I get an average hash speed of 62 MH/s on each of them. In a week or so, when I will get the two new cards, I will try the SimpleMining OS as well.

https://i.imgur.com/81wlNQR.jpg6x Palit RTX 3060 Ti 8GB +1400 on memory I also have a script that's watching incorrect shares so it reboots the rig when it gets to 50 incorrect shares so I don't have problems with DAG epoch switching

yeah, I guess we can say a 3060 ti is likewise what a rx 470 was in 2017. It will hold resale value quite well. The 3070 as I predicted was a failure, 100 usd for the same hashrate on eth is just a no go, miners need to save money, eth mining is soon gone and if roi is more than 360 days then gameover, not worth the hassle. The 3060 ti is 24% faster than rx 5700 and yet the same price, so in theory will hold at least 24% more resale value for gamers. https://twitter.com/aggies_tarheelshttps://twitter.com/fiesta_2021

6x Palit RTX 3060 Ti 8GB +1400 on memory I also have a script that's watching incorrect shares so it reboots the rig when it gets to 50 incorrect shares so I don't have problems with DAG epoch switching it is important to get no invalid shares. when you restart the miner, you lose time to creation of the dag file. find the sweet spots for your gpus. the highest hashrate is not important.

It reboots the rig, for that + DAG creation and everything I'm loosing about 2 minutes max so that's not a big deal at all for ~18MH/s more for a whole rig compared to +1000 on memory when there is no invalid shares Btw, I have 3 rigs with 3060 Ti, total od 18 cards (15 Palit + 3 Gainward) so that's 54MH/s more and it's a "free RX5700"

well done.. first of all because you found 12 3060ti! I wonder what he paid? I would have loved to graben ten of them at a good price. But I really would have loved to get 10 3080's at a good price.

I am thinking about starting to camp out at Microcenter just to get a few cards to replace the cards I am selling. Wondering how long this run will be sustained.

I paid 635 USD for each one. Total 7620 USD + 19 USD shipping. (Taxes is so high in my country.) But it s not possible now. 825 USD is the new price. RTX 3070 is 860 USD now. There is no so much difference in price. Power consumption and the hashrate is the same.

I wanted to replace one 1070 with a 3060ti (gaming/mining on TV) since launch. Never got one. Have to go in store and backorder in person and wait until one comes up. Insane.
