check that the sata for the riser is separate, maybe try installing just the one card and see then if it will change anything. maybe check the asic quality with gpu-z to see what comes up.

I just ran it then activated nvidia inspector ...crash!  So I updated it a week ago but I also had trouble getting the drivers to install ... as soon as I added that card..... everything started crashing.
Gpu-z how do I check the asic quality with that?
I also had all memory clocks show 4505 on my 2x 980ti and the one 970..then I added the second one and the memory clocks showed 4505 on the 980ti and 5109 on both 970's. Like they linked up.

Looks good....before crash.

Do you have SLI enabled by any chance?

That maybe the problem but I don't know how to do it or disabled it.
Now it only last a minute then crashes.
How do I check to disabled it?  thx
EDIT: I'm checking now  but I didn't enable it unless it does it automatically.
I can't even access nvidia control panel.

tbearhere ...

the sli connection is a physical connector for the cards ... if the cards are separate ( ie - you dont have a phisical connecter ont he top of both cards connecting them to one another ) - then you dont have sli connected ...

unless there is a bios settign as well that you changed - then sli will be disabled there as well - though i dont now of any bios settigns that exist for sli anyway ... but i thought id mention that just in case ...

i also noticed that you are running ccminer with NO -i settings ... have you considered that the default intensity is way too high for the cards? ...

sp doesnt publish the default intensities ( actually none of the devs do - and ive requested this many times before in this thread - but no one has ) - so there may be an intensity issue here ...

try using -i 16 as a lower intensity - which wont mine much - but may just show you that the miner itself is stable ... if it still crashes while intensity is as low as 16 - then im out of ideas ... unless i had the machine infront of me for a full rebuild ...

Try swapping the suspect card with card 0 (in the x16 slot I presume) to see if the probkem moves.

Swapping cards... but gpu0 is not the 16x slot.

I think you're going in the wrong direction. You installed a new card and your system destabilized.
You know the system was stable before but you don't know if the card is defective. That is
your first objective. You need to isolate the problem.

Swap the suspect card with whatever card just to see if the problem follows it. Try removing the suspect card to
get back to a stable system. Try removing all but the suspect card. Look for a pattern.

If the card proves ok then you can look at system problems, starting with power. Do you have enough power?
Do you have too many risers on the same rail?

There appears to be nothing in the software that has changed that could have caused it.

@tbearhere - I was thinking the same thing.  If you don't have enough power feeding the cards the system will act wonky!  What size power supply and how many video cards in total on the board?  Only (2) 970's?

that hashrate is impressive are you using sp mod or what? i can barely scratch 13.5 mega with 1500 core

[sp_]

He is running sp-mod private #5 (0.1BTC)

[sp_]

If you wonder why quark is +62% and x11 is only up 18%, it's because x11 need some more work and donations...

I just did a comparison between my buyable private miner (0.1BTC) and the latest 1.7.5 release.
I have written 0-10% faster, but I should have written 17-74% faster

Sp-Mod #5 default intensities hashrates in MHASH/s. (980ti 1290 coreclock/1650 memclock)

nist5: 43.80 (+17%)
quark: 27.85 (+61,91%)
lyra2v2 16.10 (+16.6%)
x11:   12.85 (+18%)
x13:   10.27 (+19.97)
x15:    8.83 (+18.52 )
neoscrypt: 0.99 (+73.68%)

1.7.5: (32bit windows build cuda 7.5) default intensities in MHASH/s (980ti 1290 coreclock/1650 memclock)

nist5: 37.45
quark: 17.20
lyra2v2: 13.81
x11: 10.88
x13: 8.56
x15: 7.45
neoscrypt: 0.57

1.7.5: (32bit windows build cuda 6.5) (980ti 1290 coreclock/1650 memclock)

nist5: 38.93
quark: 17.5
lyra2v2: 13.18
x11: 10.95

x15: 7.7
neoscrypt: 0.71

SPmod 5 is getting around 19.1 at around 1500 Mhz core (GV-N970WF3OC).

ah yes i'm now getting 16.6 with sp mod, and 12 with decred fork, didn't know it was so inefficient with quark, qubit etc...

[sp_]

It's because I forked ccminer 1.5 back in 2014, and have done 1000+ checkins to improve the speed for the maxwell cards. (Alot of free work)

https://github.com/sp-hash/ccminer/commits/windows

Tvpruvot hasn't merged all my changes in his latest ccminer 1.7.5

The sp-mod private includes some extra speed for the donators.

I am working to merge all my kernals into the 1.7.5 release, but it takes time.

[sp_]

Thanks Sp_ for the git updates!
Cool you are still opensourcing some juice ;-)

Opensourcing is the correct way to do it, but private kernals give more profit. I will opensource some of my work as long as donations keep coming.

[Amph]

i have a little problem when running 3 or more card, their memory is sitting at 3000mega instead of 3600, those are 970

[Schleicher]

I still get gpu 0 found nonce plus the readout of the card I'm benchmarking. I don't know why.

That's because sp is using the thread id for the "nonce found" message, not the card number.

[sp_]

I submitted a tiny speedup in the groestl--512 algo @ github.

[aprilio]

when i have hardware miner ..good job all

I got multiple problems now... will try that -i setting.  thx  psu 1200 continuous up to 1300 but drawing 1050 watts.
The sli connection yes connection.. I don't have them connected.

I got multiple problems now... will try that -i setting.  thx  psu 1200 continuous up to 1300 but drawing 1050 watts. It cuts off sometimes too.. it should not...but the fan is too slow.. can't find anything to override the psu fan speed.

The humidity is 18%    it is part of 3 problems.
It was hard getting the drivers installed on that card too but worked.
EDIT: Humidity 16% I don't believe it.... Can't go near the rig.

sp private #5 all algo and that is stock clocks... it can do 1 mh/s more on quark.
And I think it was in p2 state.
EDIT: I thought that the 970 fans where suppose to be off when idle mine are not.

He is running sp-mod private #5 (0.1BTC)

Submitted a tiny speedup in echo-512. X11 +2KHASH on the gtx960M. @github
 
Hehe I know It is nothing, but I just need to do it 100 more times.
