Guys please, could you tell me in details how to set the temperature limit in EWBF miner?
Can't find it anywhere
And would like to lower it to let's say 65C
The easy way to do it is using MSI Afterburn. You can set your limit temp you want. If you set temp limit is 65, your GPUs will throttle when they hit 65C.
SET TEMPERATURE LIMIT WITH A CONFIGURATION FILE--
Launch your miner with "./miner -c miner.cfg" in Linux or "miner.exe -c miner.cfg" in Windows. There should be a sample "miner.cfg" in the same directory where you extracted the EWBF executable, in Linux, or Windows.
Below is an example for mining on NiceHash. Substitute other pools as you please.
<=====Example Configuration=====>
# Common parameters
# All the parameters here are similar to the command line arguments
[common]
cuda_devices 0 <--- I only have 1 GPU
intensity 64 <---this is the standard, and the highest, intensity setting
templimit 87 <--- here is where the temperature limit is set
pec 1 <--- "1" means "true", or "on". This gives the "Power Efficiency Chart" in the console
boff 0
eexit 0 <--- If you have an unstable rig, set this to "3" for auto-restart. Read about it.
tempunits c <--- Centigrade, or Fahrenheit
log 1 <--- true or false, keep a log
logfile miner.log <--- name of log file
api 127.0.0.1:42000 <--- url for web access
# The miner start work from this server
# When the server is fail, the miner will try to reconnect 3 times
# After three unsuccessful attempts, the miner will switch to the next server
# You can add up to 8 servers
# main server
[server]
server equihash.usa.nicehash.com
port 3357
user
.worker1
pass x
# additional server 1
[server]
server equihash.eu.nicehash.com
port 3357
user .worker1
<=====Example Configuration=====>
Copy the body of the "miner.cfg" file and edit it to your choice of pools and addresses. If you set different temp limits in "miner.cfg" and in AfterBurner, or PrecisionX, or whatever commercial control program you may like, you may have problems. I use just "miner.cfg", it works fine. If the temperature is reached, the miner restarts. If you set your commercial control program to a lower temperature than configured as above, it will throttle your hash rate to keep the temperature at limit. This may be what you want, it is up to you.
