The idea is as simple as putting another temperature limit option, that there are two, one for Core the current one and another for Power as I suggest, it has no more problem. Instead of 5 in 5 jumps it can be shorter steps like 2 in 2, or 3 in 3. But I tell you in tests that I have done by hand, many times the hash does not suffer just because the core is still intact and the temperature drops by power reduction. I also see it very interesting

As always I try to be constructive with my suggestions or criticisms, and I think that your system is the best in the market.
In a perfect world the existing Temperature Limit feature provided by the nVidia drivers would take care of this. You can already define the temperature limit and the nVidia drivers take action to keep it. The problem we agree on is that the nVidia drivers lowers the Core clock significantly and this results in much lower hashrate. So although the nVidia drivers keeps the temperature, it's not doing it in a good way for mining.

The nVidia drivers can however guarantee that you never go above the Temperature Limit as they enforce it so hard.

Awesome Miner could have it own Power-reducing Temperature Threshold feature in addition to what nVidia gives us. Awesome Miner could monitor the temperature and if it goes above 79C (configurable), it will reduce the Power Limit to 85% (configurable) and it it's above 82C (configurable) it will set the Power Limit to 65% (configurable). It's not that easy for Awesome Miner to guarantee a temperature here, but it could at least reduce the power usage and making it less likely that you hit the nVidia Temperature Limit that will do harder underclocking.

A concept where you are allowed to define two power reduction levels based on two temperatures should be realistic to implement in Awesome Miner. Would that make sense?

Finally, I still have some online interface problems but really if it is working, that is a direct problem with intelibrezee, I am already using windows 1903 which is quite stable. I have greatly reduced that error with this version but it still continues to appear and you have to restart once or several times until AM reads that remote well. Because I understand that this problem is remote.
I don't mind looking at the log files for this again - in case I can find out anything more. Please send me the logs via PM and let me know the time you did see the issues. Thanks!

Running GMiner adds --pers auto to the command line, how to change this behaviour. Seems counter productive to add --pers for each equihash algo as a new custome miner Undecided Undecided

Do not add that line to the property miner, add it in each Pool in advanced, so each equihash currency can have its own line, because it changes according to the Equihash currency, so it is appropriate in the pool where you define the currency in Advanced and only It affects that pool.

Anayone seen the "coin prices" on bottom of program ?
For me all are ok.. changing live, except for BTC witch was rising .. now it still shows 10.968,50 € whitch is wrong price..

Then there is another secondary problem.

The auto profit does it according to the benchmark profile or to save the Hash.

But of course in my profile it puts 8.22 in cucka31, but in the day it does not even reach 7, but it does not change the currency because what it sends is the saved hash, not the hash that is being produced.

That is the important thing to be able to have a better solution for the temperatures, because it is not only the fact that it yields less, but also that it is more serious because the auto switch does not look at real parameters (impossible for X16r for example), but I want you to understand that problem

A Rig produces X power in a Something, but when that Rig in summer by temperature yields 20% less, it does not take it into account. Somehow the programming of the auto switch should know if that rig has 1 or several cards of reduced core or power, and automatically apply to the hash saved a transparent reduction, so as to better guess with the hash changes produced by the heat. It would be something to keep in mind. It is clear that if 1 or more cards are in the limit of temperature, low pontencia and the hash they get is not the one that is saved as a reference, but knowingly, you can apply a transparent reduction to that hash when one or more cards are in maximum temperature, because they will not be producing their maximum. I hope you understand what I mean.

Right now the auto profit with the function of maximum temperature lowering the core and dropping the hash, is not realistic in its changes, and keeps me in currencies that are not the most profitable at that moment because of the heat.
Awesome Miner is currently only measuring the hashrate and power usage based on the clocking you had when you do the benchmark. In this case you have taken care of the temperature by lowering the performance, and at this point the previously benchmarked hashrate and power usage is no longer fully correct. I do understand your point here - that you may not be able to reach this level of hashrate and power usage due to high temperatures.

I don't think there is any easy solution to this as Awesome Miner would have to be quite smart about finding out this automatically without making any mistakes.

Rather it was commenting on if there was something easy but if you tell me it would be complicated, then I am satisfied. I'll look somehow the middle hash to put it by hand. I imagined that the auto profit was going to be difficult to modify by taking the benchmark reference. I leave a suggestion to see if it serves you. You can use an average of (benchmark + current hash) / 2 for Auto profit, so you have a very real average, you combine the saved hash + the hash generated at the moment divided by 2 to have a mean. It will always be a more real approach than just the benchmark. It's just a suggestion that I just came up with, it could be used for the whole year. The bad things are the algos that are extremely variable like x16r. Well it's just a suggestion, I understand how difficult it is and I understand that it is not done.

I am more interested in reducing power instead of Core, or even a mixed system, that works the same as the current temperature limit but primarily reduces Power and with less emphasis on Core. The point is to control the temperature with the lowest hash drop. There will always be a hash fall, it is inevitable, but according to my tests at hand, the hash suffers much less reducing power to that card, as it continues to maintain the CORE and is sometimes even able to keep the hash almost intact. But with the reduction of core the hash always falls.

The idea is as simple as putting another temperature limit option, that there are two, one for Core the current one and another for Power as I suggest, it has no more problem. Instead of 5 in 5 jumps it can be shorter steps like 2 in 2, or 3 in 3. But I tell you in tests that I have done by hand, many times the hash does not suffer just because the core is still intact and the temperature drops by power reduction.

Awesome Miner should only add 'auto' if your pool (see the Properties dialog) doesn't have any Personalization String defined. Once you define your own personalization string for the specific coin you are mining, Awesome Miner will use that one instead of 'auto'.

Hi patric, I have started to use remote GPU rig (not local network) on windows10pro, but main AW window not show power usage for this rig and of course calculate wrong total profit.
If i go to GPU tab in AW for this rig, i see power usage for every GPU in this rig.
I have asics which is controled from the same AW instance in local network and power usage control/profit calculation works right.
In my config asics and gpu placed in different miner groups.
pls help....
Can you please go to the Options dialog, Profitability section, and make sure the "Power usage mode" is set to one of the modes including "Actual usage"?

Antminer Z11 hashrates are reported as Mh/s instead of Kh/s on my awesome miner windows GUI. As a result daily payout looks like $10,000 per day instead of $10 per day. Anyone else have this issue?
I know that recent Z11 firmwares have some changes to the reported hashrate unit.

Could you please send me the API report (toolbar: Tools -> API Report) for this miner via PM? Thanks!

Hello Patrike, I have more suggestions on temperature control, and problems.

I have suggested a double OC, but it would be too much, I suppose, for 4 months of heat, that is, 1/3 of the year.

I am using the maximum temperature in OCs, but it has a big problem. If I put a generous OC, many cards reach the limit and start falling from Core, and as a result the rig yields much less because when you lower the core, it yields less, much less. Only at night goes well when temperatures drop.

If I put a very smooth OC, I will not reach those temperatures day or night, but it would also be producing less hash.

Lowering the core is very effective but produces a too strong drop in the hash, so my suggestion is:

You can do the same but instead of downloading the core in real time, whatever you reduce is the TDP or power of the source to that card. That also reduces the temperature but does not produce such a strong hash drop. In fact, it can produce more because it does not heat up and the core is not lowered. Or a combined system, that lowers a bit of core and a little power or TPD from the source.

A real example, the same night rig Cucka31 8.22 mhs, day 6.2 mhs. If I put a soft OC so that neither day nor night comes, I would stay at about 6.7 -6.9 mhs

That's why I asked for double oc, but I think that a system that drops the Power to each card by independent in steps of 5, would be fine.

What is 80 power 90 core, 500 memory. Well I get down to 75 90 500, that is not enough I would lower 70 90 500. The lowering of electric power, does not drop the hash as much. But the same as the core, card by card. I do not know if you can, if you can please you can add it as an option in the OC.

And it is impossible to have a single CB that serves both the day and the night without losing hash.
This is an interesting concept.

If it's only a single parameter like the "Power Limit" it should be possible for Awesome Miner to figure out what to do with it to reach some target power usage. The challenge with only a target power usage is that it's different depending on the GPU.

What about defining some offset? Like during certain hours (night time) Awesome Miner should take your power limit and reduce it by 10% for all profiles for example? That would work even with mixed GPU's and will not require so much work for you to configure even if you have many clocking profiles.

I find that many a times on diff miners, the awesome miner fails to extract the folder and is stuck extracting the files in download.
Do i need to run as admin or something? This is new and i havent had this issue before.
If you run into a problem where the mining software isn't extracted correctly:

1) Please check if the downloaded zip-file for the mining software is valid or corrupt - this could be valuable information to know
2) Please collect the Remote Agent log file for when this happend and send the information to me. I can then review the scenario.

Thanks!

OFF topic --- Someone knows of a technician in Europe to be able to send you two graphic cards, a 1070 and a 1080ti to repair. You have to be a good technician because here in Spain everyone does reballing and that is not the problem.

I ask here being off topic, because we are all miners and with many cards, surely someone knows someone who fixes the Nvidia. and it has to be in Europe for the shipping cost.

Thank you.
