Two questions:

Have you tried NiceHash Miner Legacy 1.8.1.5?
Have you tried two instances of NiceHash? Example: 5 GPUs on one and 4 GPUs in other.
Test and tell.

Hello all and Merry Christmas for those who celebrate.

I am noticing that all of my 9 x 1060 GPU rigs seem to be having stability challenges with mining Neoscrypt, Equihash and Blake2s when using the Nicehash Miner Version 2.0.1.5 for Nvidia cards.

What's odd is when it selects Keccak and Lyra2Rev2 I have no issues when running all 9.

I have updated my Nvidia drivers, re-benchmarked and reinstalled the Nicehash Miner software but the same thing occurs. Power supply is a 1600 watt EVGA T2 PSU so I don't believe its hardware or a power issue as this is happening across several of them.

Is this simply an 8 GPU limitation of the NiceHash software or am I just unlucky those specific mining pools?

Thanks in advance for your advice.
