Hi guys,
just a quick one - I'm using the miner, v0.0.9b (because 0.2.0b just crashes for me),
I have gtx 970, and without any apparent rule - sometimes I get 195 sol/s, sometimes 60, sometimes 240.

Really weird, and my card runs only on 50% power consumption and 50 celsius. GPU load is 99%, memory load around 70%.

How can I maximize sols?

thanks

sorry newb question how to use that i already extract and and got 2 file miner and readme then i open terminal and change directory to folder with miner inside and type this ./miner --server eu1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 --user t1NF6yLUxAAttibU8mzfX86o8aWLcqF38DX.rig1 --pass x --port 3333 --cuda_devices 0 1 2 3 but got ./miner: Permission denied

idk what should i do, i dont see any guide in first post,

drop the :3333 after flypool.org, keep the --port 3333 notation, this fixed it for me

I think that this is a typo on the flypool's site. Also, don't need to list devices if you have just four:

./miner --server eu1-zcash.flypool.org --user t1NF6yLUxAAttibU8mzfX86o8aWLcqF38DX.rig1 --pass x --port 3333

This has got to be something with my z wallet address or something...  If I copy yours exactly, it will run..  if I place my wallet address in, it fails back to error 9
There is big red warning on flypool : can not send to z adresses...

I'm not that blind.... I am using a "t" address not a "z" address .. I was referring to z wallet as my zec wallet
If it does not work with your address you can put mine in...no problem.  Grin
Are you on win 10 or Ubuntu?

If using  ./miner --server eu1-zcash.flypool.org --user t1NF6yLUxAAttibU8mzfX86o8aWLcqF38DX.rig1 --pass x --port 3333

It looks like ur syntax is incorrect. 

use

./miner --server eu1-zcash.flypool.org --port 3333 --user t1NF6yLUxAAttibU8mzfX86o8aWLcqF38DX.rig1 --pass x

I'd be really careful with the converters... Dont think the 2 sata can support the wattage needed for pcie

Hey,

Ok so my 10 rigs are like so

6 x EVGA geforce GTX 1070 FTW Gaming ACX 3.0 - 8 GB (2x8pin power)
6x PCI-E Riser USB and powered version 006c (6pin power)
2x FSP Fortron Hydro G 750 - 750W
Intel Celeron G1820 2.7 GHz
ASRock H81 Pro BTC R2.0
Kingston SSDNow UV400 - 120 Go
HyperX Savage 8 GB DDR3 (2x4GB)
W10 anniversary edition x64
Drivers 372.19 but will upgrade to 372.33 today.

I choose dual psu rig because it doesn't take much more room, allow for dual fan cooling from below because i turned them toward the gpu's, more cables than solo psu so less money for added adapters, more power lines, more stable, consume less overall because able to hit the sweet 50% load spot that allow maximum psu efficiency, and cost 60% of the price of a 1300W psu, so money saved here too.

one psu power the whole motherboard and drives (mobo + ssd) all the motherboard added connectors for power of PCI are also on that psu, and 2x GTX 1070 + own risers + added fans
second psu power the remaining 4 gpus + their risers.

both psu load is the same (1% variance) and well splitted across all power rails.

Sweet spot running those rig is about 60% TDP (about 110w per gpus) and different overclock depending on algo, for equihash (zcash & fork) i used to run +150/+600 but with latest EWBF that exploit everything a bit better, i had to tone it down for stability @ 145/590, been stable all night across all rigs, for an added ~2.5% average more hash (~2585 > 2650sols/s) with Solver 0 and one EWBF instance.
How do you power 4 gpus with only one PSU, the PSU has only 6 x PCI-E 6+2 but the 4 EVGA geforce GTX 1070 need 8 x PCI-E 6+2

Use the Sata and Perf port on the PSU and use 8-Pin PCIe to 2xSATA Power Cables

Is it a good idea to keep the fans on auto?

For me, the GPU fan speed does not matter, since I have attached additional fan (3000rmp). Its stable on 60-63 degree.  So I see no reason to change the fan speed settings by afterburner.
