Dear everyone,
My gtx1080 (non ti) mines ~500 sol/s
is it good or not?
WHen I connected 1060 6G and 1080 in my main board, they mine very good.
But when I connected one more 1060 3G, computer is very slowly and 3 cards mine so bad.
Can you help me to config? (my main board is Biostar tb250 )
Thank you in advance

You should be able to get at least 550 Sols/s with OC, depends on the card though but even the good 1070s can go to 500. I can push mine to about 585 Sols/s with +200 / +1000.

What is the power consumption for these hashes/settings?

Totally no idea haha, GPU-Z doesn't show the Watts anymore, not sure why GPU-Z doesn't show my wattage, also i do not have anything to test the full PC wattage.
But the TDP at 75C limit is 53.1% and GPU itself is 1.012V so i guess it uses around 130W and rest of pc components such as CPU/SSD/HDD and all the stuff uses around 120W.

I am also surprised that with this miner my desktop doesn't keep freezing like all other miners.

If you add --pec to your bat file it shows GPU power consumption.

DevFee is not a problem, support much more important Cool

My 1080 also not so fast like it wants, only 510 sol/s at 2063MHz GPU and 4600MHz GRAM, so looking forward for optimization   Roll Eyes

EWBF's miner actually took 5-6% DevFee instead of the stated 2%. I checked the log file out of curiosity and counted all accepted vs DevFee:

GPU0   1703 accepted
GPU1   1772 accepted
GPU2   1791 accepted
GPU3   1723 accepted

Total: 6989 accepted
DevFee: 362 instances

362 / 6989   = 0.05179567892402346544570038632136 = 5.1%


On a second run I got the following:

Total: 6159 accepted
DevFee: 347 instances

347 / 6159   = 0.05634031498619905828868322779672 = 5.6%


I was doing around 1800 sol/s with EWBF and around 1700 sol/s with NiceHash's Excavator. So I stopped using EWBF since there's no difference running Excavator over this.

You should run another test with --fee 0 and see what you end up with Smiley

Will try that.

For the record, I'm fine with the 2% DevFee as long as it really stays at 2%.


@sublimus

No, I'm not mad at all. I thought your question was related to dev fees so I just pointed out that the payout's currency is irrelevant.
If it's unrelated then it's BTC since I'm connecting to nicehash servers atm, but I can switch to other mining pools and get paid ZEC.

I was asking that because Nicehash  miners used to be locked so no one could point it anywhere else. I admit my question was not formulated right.
Not my native language.
But if I can try an explanation, your stat only consider the number of instances. Depending where the miner was pointed to, (because dev fees are not necessarily taken from Nicehash, EWBF can mine with other stratum while taking his dev fees), So what if Dev fees take half the time to be executed?

EDIT: I just realized EWBF already answered your question.

@EWBF_

Please try to write multi rigs manager like Clymore , its very important for administration.

Hi ,how i can disbale one GPU in EWBF miner...for example i have 5 gpu but i want disable  GPU 1 .Tnx
--cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 4 - it mean all 5 devices will work
--cuda_devices 0 2 3 4 - all devices excluding device with id 1

Tnx for replay.

Hello. I just tested mining on my 1060 3GB and I am able to get 280 Sol/s on these cards. But I have heard zcash mining on nvidia cards is more profitable than on AMD? but on RX570 I am getting the same 280 Sol... Is this ok or where is a problem? Thank you so much.

You should also check each cards wattage and Sol/w and Sol/$

You are a miner and i think you must know what's mean mining difficulty.
If the difficulty of the devfee pool is lower than the difficulty of your pool, than the number of devfee shares will be above 2%, only because the cost of each devfee share is lower than the cost of each share of your pool.
Try to run miner on this pool: http://dwarfpool.com/zec and use the port with low difficulty 3334, wait for about an hour, and then calculate the number of shares.
And yes of course you can use --fee 0 if you wish...

Hello ,
Who can help me understand the next problem? My farm is 6xGTX1070, EWBF hashrate show stable 2200 sol +/- 1-2%. Why does the pool show such a schedule?





Is it a problem in the pool, in the EWBF or on my farm?

Looks like a normal flypool chart.  Keep in mind that they only count your submitted shares as they are a pay per share pool, they don't really care what your reported hashrate is.  As long as your average hashrate is pretty much the same as your miner reported rate, everything is fine.

Is 1060 9GBPS worth it, or just stick with the older 1060?
There is a shortage of 1060's now, So I must decide fast what to buy.

My MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X does easy 500 Sols/s using 180W

I have MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X and get ~550 H/s with +165 core clock +550 memory clock at 70% TDP
