In precision x make sure that sync on box in unchecked. Then select GPU 1 and lower the GPU clock by 10mhz, hit apply, the same for GPU2. If still crashes lower for another 10mhz.
What is the GPU frequency and voltage of your crashing cards?

"Poor" card is when factory overclocked chip occasionally crashes under constant heavy load. 

Yep, and some factory overclocked cards may actually need to be underclocked to run properly.
On a side note, i found a small toggle switch on my MSI 750ti's the other day which switches bios's i believe between factory overclock and stock, haven't messed or looked into it but the switchs may be on other cards aswell

This is correct, but only twin frozr gaming series have that switch. Regular MSI single fan 750ti's v1 and v2 does not have it:

Your system is the fault not the miner, you need to overclock each card individually.
I have 2 cards that with the same overclock that stay at the same clock speed
and one that with the overclock it just fails because it boosts by 16hz more then the other 2

so check the overclocks on those cards are ok, most likely drop them by around 50hz and they will be fine

But this happen even without OC.. how can i repair this ? How can i set all cards at the same speed with out OC?

No one can suggest me something more then reinstall drivers and try without oc for my problem?

With evga precision x i saw that GPU 1 stay 13mhz under the clock i set and GPU2 stay 13mhz  above clock i set. Result: those cards are the ones that crashed ccminer. Is there an error on ccminer or on my system?

Lower GPU clock on cards that are constantly crashing (GPU1 and GPU2 in your case if i read correctly). The ones are probably "poor" cards (not for an RMA though  Tongue)  Welcome to the silicon world.



What do you mean with "poor card"??

I think they will have to have improved on things, i doubt they will release the 880 if its worse then a 780. The last doc posted on here stated that the 870 was on par with the 780 in gaming score bench's

I also think they have resolved some more power usage items and got that down some more. They have said that they have managed to increase transistor density by 16% which could resolve in more power savings

Even something as daft as increase the power regulation to different area's of the board would lower power and off set the ratio. A shrink in die size means more space for power phase's and smoothing

And i read they have something call ARM core. Not sure what is that and if it can be use for mining.

It is just an ARM processor but i have a feeling that they will be sending compressed information to and from the GPU which resolves the lower memory bandwidth issue, would make sense to send compressed data and uncompress it within the gpu on the arm processor

which lets face it, can be quad cores pulling tiny amounts of power in extremely small form factors

mmh, you can't escape math, but dunno, i'm sceptical

Got to have faith in something that doesn't make sense ! Especially in crypto world

ARM core + CUDA Core = Profit ?

Maybe we will have a new miner call ARMminer ?

this mean that the 870 is only x2 the 750ti, and the 880 x2.5, it make sense because the 880 is inferior to the 780ti, which is x3 the 750ti

But performance could be 3-5x, perhaps because of 2nd generation maxwell technology. I am sure something can be done to make 800 series miner more powerful than previous generation of GPU.

And i will quote myself


If u or anyone can make a fully optimize miner for 800 series and mining profit is really good , i will donate to the person 1 x 880 GPU (i will send equivalent value in BTC)

and gamers, at that i can replace my 780 with 2 880's and only use 50W more power! :p

Which also means resale value of 800 series will be high !

yep, hopefully my 750Ti's stick to their ~£80-90 resale value so i can dump them all for a 880/870
September, ooo my birthday, money to spend

Which also means resale value of 800 series will be high and easy to sell compare to 750 ti

Hopefully it will be out by Sep.

yes power consumption is an issue in my room before anyone asks, i have 2 pc's a mining rig, a 50" plasma, speakers, snake tank, 26" monitor and extra all running off a single extension lead xD

http://www.game-debate.com/news/?news=13849&graphics=GeForce%20GTX%20880&title=Nvidia%20Teasing%20Big%20GeForce%20GTX%20Reveal%20At%20Gamescom%202014%20On%20August%2017th

Nvidia is ramping up the hype levels ahead of an event taking place during the gamescom 2014 event in Cologne, running from 14th-17th August. Nvidia looks to have some big plans for the show, culminating in ‘The Grand Finale’ event on the final day.

A teaser banner proudly announces Nvidia’s presence at the show, indicating that team green is preparing for some potentially huge news at Europe’s largest gaming trade show, with the hotly anticipated GeForce GTX 880 top of that list.

“We show you how GeForce GTX graphics cards and NVIDIA technologies bring PC gaming to a new dimension,” reads the event description, which is presumably relating to the imminent unveiling of its GeForce GTX 880 graphics card within the coming weeks, as well as the possibility of the GeForce GTX 870.

Previous rumours have pencilled in a full reveal in mid-September ahead of an October release, but it could well be the case we get our first look at Nvidia’s next-generation graphics hardware in just 13 days.

Leaked specs have so far indicated a mammoth 3DMark score of 6110, a mammoth 20% improvement over the immensely powerful GeForce GTX 780 Ti. Whatever the case it looks like we’re nearly there for the future of graphics hardware, and we can’t help but eagerly anticipate what AMD has up its sleeve to combat Nvidia’s latest.

As always keep your eyes peeled on Game Debate for the latest hardware news as and when it breaks. Have you been saving your pennies in anticipation of Nvidia's latest and greatest? Or are you waiting on the 20nm fabrication process? Let us know!


By 17 Aug , we should know more about the 800 series !!!

Meanwhile,

It seems a lot of people are. I guess its less of a risk to spend £20 on AWS and earn nothing then to spend £100 on a 750ti plus mining power and earn nothing.

Seems the only way for people starting off
