Quint you don't happen to have a 1070Ti do you?  I am about to start to config one tomorrow but wondering if you have a starting point =)

Memory DOES make a difference on equihash - though not a big one on the 1080 ti.

 On my Aorus (not the extreme), I found that +100 core +100 memory was the best setting for speed/efficiency that was stable - +150 memory gave a few more sol/s but wasn't long-term stable as those cards seem to push the memory pretty hard already, +200 memory gave me LOWER sol/s probably because it pushed the card up into the next "strap" range with higher latency settings.

 50% TDP (125 watts) gave 505 hash - don't bother this is a waste of the card.
 60% TDP (150 watts) gave 620 hash - this seems to be the best efficiency point that still has decent hashrate.
 70% TDP (175 watts) gave 680 hash - efficiency dropping but not a LOT yet
 80% TDP (200 watts) gave 725 hash - efficiency dropoff getting noticeable
 90% TDP (225 watts) gave 760 hash - ditto
100% TDP (250 watts) gave 780 hash - waste of power unless you have VERY VERY cheap power, and even then it's a bit iffy - though the cards still runs pretty cool at this setting as long as it's NOT in a hot room.


 Other cards may vary, though all of the cards I have to date (1 Gigabyte Windforce, 1 EVGA SC, pair of Aorus) all seem to match nearly identically up to about the 80% point, then the EVGA and Windforce start dropping a bit as temp doesn't let them boost the core as much.



I tried to reinstall my drivers, i put 100% TDP +100 core and +300 memory, got 770-780 Sol/s and when i start skype and chrome its go to 300 sol/s GPU-Z show power consuption  50-60% and it wont come back i need to reset PC.
85% TDP +100 clock +300 mem i got 730-750 Sol/s.
I have Asus Strix
I dont care about electric bill, i have chearp power here.

You dont mine on 100% power.. Lower the power to 70% and incease core to +100. Memory is irrelevant for equihash.

yea, then i get around 700 sol/s i dont need to worry about wats, it is to cheap for me. i wanna best sol/s i can get from card.


Power limit 104%
Core clock: +60
mem clock: +200

i get around 750-760 Sol/s


edit:

i just set my Power Limit to 85%
core: +100
mem: +300

getting 730-750 Sol/s watts 220-230, before i had 270w, temp is 62C and 1820RPM is fans

Hello all. I just got my Asus Strix GTX 1080 Ti and on Stock it get 730 sol/s and when i oc it: +91 and +300 its get 780 but after a 1min from 100 TDP its drop to  ~70% TDP and get around ~500 Sol/s with Zcash. Can anyone help me?

100%  tdp = waste

Yeah, I was just posting my max settings. I can get it to hit 1k but it's too hot and too expensive. 80% power gives me 910, so 7% reduction in speed for -20% power. I may go a little lower, not sure. For this card I'm not power conscious, but I'm doing a 7x1080ti rig, and I'll definitely drop that to the sweet point. I just wish I could get that 10% bump from smi -ac. It was easy peasy with the 1080's. smi says no dice on my ti. Any other fine-tuning tips for a ti? I've been amd for a year, so I'm trying to remember where I left off. Last year it looked like cuda was a bad play. Wish I'd held all those vtc, lbc, etc. But that's trading/investing, not mining.



Find  your core max   on a Founders Card  it is 220 to 290

memory is not important  lower the better  -500  -400 -300  all good  save some power  some  founder cards will let you do

tdp 70%
core 290
mem -500
fan     75%

those settings save power and get into the 935 area  only a few of my founder cards do that.


Sorry if I missed the point, but is it good to lower the mem clock and oc the core?

I am mining with NiceHash on 970 and 1070 and both are: core lowered as possible and mem oc as possible, tdp at 80%...
Is it with the 1080ti only that this is the way?

Edit: got it working, needed to set up a batch file, and thanks to nokia555 for his posted walkthrough.

Thank you, mate. This one is doing the 1M  Smiley


Hey how did you get it working? I'm on windows 10 with a 1080ti.

I downloaded 1.5.81:

https://github.com/sp-hash/ccminer/releases/

release81.7z

and then I extracted and it and see that it only comes with the application... am I missing something? (edit: I created a skein bat file and it works, intensity is 20.. getting 800-900 M/hashes, stock GPU settings..)

------

Then I also downloaded:

https://github.com/alexis78/ccminer

and then I see that it doesn't come with an application...

.. I'm coming from ccminer 2.0, which has the application, and I successfully ran my 1080ti over there, but like you guys I was only getting around 600's



But back to the subject... am I supposed to combine the sp 1.5.81 application into the ccminer windows folder(from alexis)? I did that too and ran the app and it crashed... help??

And if we get another wave of Crytpo currency increase , then you wont find any 1080 TIs in stock .
First RX570/Rx580 dissapred , followed by 1060GTX , then 1070GTX , now we are stuck with 1050TI , 1080 GTX , 1080 TI.
Another wave of prices increase  and you will only find 1080 GTX .

Today you will not get more then 5$ or less... it was only a week or so 10+

Yep...mining is constantly changing Sad

A 1080 ti is now ~$6  day
And a 480/580 is ~$3 or so

But...you can still buy 1080 ti's at the moment and the 480/580 shortage continues

The 1080Ti is more than double the price of 480. But you can buy them.

This is an honest question. Why would you throw money away buying a bleeding edge graphics card when you can buy 3-4 other cards for the same price with a combined hash rate that will shit all over that card for overall value and hashrate?


edit: You can buy 5 RX470s for the same price as the one Ti.

Hmm...

5 x 470 = ~140 Mh/s on ETH which is about $16 / day

1 x 1080ti = ~1000 Mh/s on Skein which is about $16 / day

I'm not even going to talk about power consumption or space savings in this scenario


-----------------------------------------

Does your comparison show that the billing of a 1080 ti card is $ 16 per day? That's right?
Does it mean that if I put 6 1080 cards you get 96 dollars / day?

What is Skein?

Hey Philip, I got to thinking, unlike last year where power saving on a 1080 made sense because payout was tiny, the payout is so high right now that power saving is a real loss if it pulls your hashrate down even a small amount. Can you check my math here?

A 1080 Ti at 250W at $0.1/kwh is only costing about $.70 a day ($0.60, but add some for the system). If you cut power cost by 20%, you save $0.14. Chump change.

A 20% cut in power results in a 7% cut in hashrate on my 1080 Ti. At $15/day, that's $1.05. Real money.



yeah  and over heat burn a card .

At the moment  I have in my 90f garage    4 rigs 

using 3 1070's  and 10 1080ti's   pulling 10 amps = 2400 watts.  for 10.1gh-11 gh

If I jack it all up  and run at 85%   vs 70%   I will boost 10 % hash for  a 20% power boost   as 70 to 85 is a 20 %

my watts will go to  at least 2900  and my cooling is indirect ac as I have not been able to run in my garage for year in the summer.  But these profits are so high  I can do it.

I made .06 btc  today that is  150 usd 

So in my case if I crank  everything up  and earn  165 usd

it is 4500 a month vs 4950   just 1 thing breaks  and poof goes the extra  450.

I am in the game long term.  So If I run trouble free  and earn

 4500 June
 4000 July
 3500 Aug
12,000  easy peasy  no break downs

vs balls to the wall

4900
4400
3900 
13200   earnings   or maybe  2000  less say 11200 due to dead gear   I take the easy route.

I have had to wait  90 days on a mobo rma and   3 weeks on a video card if I kill a few 1080

cards they may make me wait months for replacements.


I see zero reason to mine at 85 % or higher power vs 70%
Don't 1080tis start throttling at 84C though?  That's well below the safe limit

Has anyone got a complied version for windows for the miner that does Skein 1000MH/s?? 

or at least some institutions on how to do it step by step on windows??

I have windows binary which does 911mh/s and 76% power limit + 220core @190W

i seem to get issues at >+170core, but mine is just the SC black version. at 80% powerlimit getting around 890-910MH

Checkout this guide for nvidia binary: http://mylifegadgets.com/setup-ethmonitoring-miner-software/
Also yes gpu only 190W, i think i can make even more from there, but its looks stable now.

Is this 190W wall reading or GPU only?

Would you share this binary with us?

Whattomine is not accurate for dgb-groestl on front page.
It seems to be accurate on coin page.

yeah because they are doing a ratio of 1.4 on the hashrate versus myr groestl, so the earning it's not right there, check on the block factory pool, the earning is very accurate there, but for now i think skein is delivering better profit, i would mine that for dgb
