The only workaround to the Pascal TLB bug is to run at a higher clockspeed, but that means more power usage, as you discovered. Unfortunately I can't do this on my P100 16GB cards since all the clockspeeds are locked because it's a 'datacenter product' according to NGreedia.

its not really a bug... its a small cache size that was outgrown..

you should be able to change clock speed on dc product with nvidia-smi, at least I have been able to in the past unless they locked it in later drivers..

try to set mem -502, core +200/220 pl 75...

That got me to 40~41 Mhs but PL 75% = 225W.

Lowest PL with nvidia-smi for a 1080Ti is 125W

Settled for 34Mh/s @ 130W PL
+145 CC
+1600 MC

Thanks everyone!

I might play around with automated optimization.

Here's my current settings and results:

CPU: Intel Xeon E5-2660v2
GPU Driver version: 390.144
CUDA version: 9.0, CUDA runtime: 8.0

sudo nvidia-smi -pl 158
DISPLAY=:0 nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUGraphicsClockOffset[2]=+145
DISPLAY=:0 nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUMemoryTransferRateOffset[2]=1850

=> 48C    P2   161W / 158W

ethminer 0.18 or PhoenixMiner 5.4c
both need ethlargement (-straps 2 does nothing)

=> 36.7Mh/s


I would try asking around the Linux community, if you come around any tips or anything let us know.

I like this guide; https://miningchamber.com/gpu-mining/gtx-1080-ti-mining-settings/ and get a https://nzxt.com/product/kraken-g12 cooling setup followed by a shunt mod  Cheesy Just kidding..

Have you done this;

$ sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

## For more packages add contrib non-free at the end of each line
     i.e.
     deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main contrib non-free

$ sudo apt purge nvidia-* && sudo apt update

$ sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-toolkit && sudo reboot

A blue screen will pop-up, read what it says, hit [ok]

I figure the current nvidia-cuda-toolkit would include the latest driver: https://salsa.debian.org/nvidia-team/nvidia-cuda-toolkit/-/commits/debian/11.2.2-3+deb11u1


Thanks for the info!

System was installed in 2019 -- used nvidia-driver from debian repo and CUDA toolkit had to be installed from nvidia website at the time.

Tried settings from : https://miningchamber.com/gpu-mining/gtx-1080-ti-mining-settings/
Core Voltage (VDD): NA

Core Clock (CClock): +40

mind sharing your miner, settings and driver version?

I have some GTX1070 video cards give 25.2 megahash. GTX 1080 gives 32-33 megahash. You can increase the hashrate on your video card if you increase the power limit, but this is not economically viable.Be happy with 38-42 megahashes.

Even gamers are getting rid of their 1080s this day because of the lack of newer drivers for gaming, miners need to start abandoning this 10 series for newer graphics cards like the GTX 1660 series and RTX 20 series, lack of compatible drivers will kill 10 series before their time.

Low 40's is normal for the 1080ti and it will only get lower due to a known bug suffered by the 10x0 series excluding the 1070ti where it was fixed.

1080Ti has gone from 55 to 43mh in 5 years and 1070 has gone from about 33mh to 25mh.
I thought the lack of update for the 10** series is why they lose hashrate performance easily? What is this bug update that you are talking about? I doubt the gtx1080ti can use 470 and 471 Nvidia drivers, you need to download the last old driver which I believe it's the 460 series, I don't know what Nvidia did this.

Imagine the DAG data is a bunch of buildings in a city and we only have the phone number. We need an address book to map phone numbers to addresses -- this address book resides in the TLB.

Unfortunately the size of the address book has exceeded the TLB size, so we no longer have fast look-ups for the entire address book - parts of it have to be recalculated (cache miss).

NVIDIA figured a smaller TLB size was enough to last a while (512kb is enough for anyone). For gaming thats true -- not so much for ETH HASH.

So theres no we to go back to full performance unless the DAG size is reduced. TLB is physical cache on the GPU (like CPU L1/L2 cache) so no way to get more with fabbing a new GPU chip.

My hashrate is at 37 Mh/s, so there still room for improvement to low 40's Mh/s. Going to try upgrading driver version and cuda version and see if that gets me the last few Mhs..

Thanks for the info about the Translation Lookup Buffer (TLB) issue.

Driver version 390.144

Tried PhonenixMiner 5.4c from the other thread, tried -straps 2 but didnt work. Still needed ethlargement and got to 37 Mh/s

Using  nvidia-settings  version 390.144

Tried the latest driver a while ago and got really poor hashrate so stuck with what works..

maybe its time to try 4XX?

debian apt has 460.91.03 as latest

This is a hardware issue, not a software issue. No operating system, mining software or driver will increase performance to what it used to be on your GTX 1080 Ti. You are stuck at 37 Mh. This hashrate will keep declining in the future as the Ethereum DAG grows.

1080Ti has gone from 55 to 43mh in 5 years and 1070 has gone from about 33mh to 25mh.
That's right, Pascal cards decline in ETH hashrate because of the translation lookaside buffer:
https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/blockchain-drivers/110847/12

This is why my Tesla P100 16GB cards only got 31.5 Mh on ETH instead of 72 Mh, as the memory bandwidth would suggest. They get 56 Mh on ETC because the DAG is smaller.

But I plan to use these cards for mining other coins, like FLUX, anyway.

Isn't the open-source Ethminer obsolete by now?

Hi all, whats the latest and greatest for eth hash in 2022?

Still using ethminer 0.18 and ethlargment. Used to get 55 Mh/s, now its dropped to 35 Mh/s -- this can't be pure from difficulty increase can it?

Found current 1080Ti benchmarks still getting 50+ Mh/s -- not sure if they are legit

Seeing threads on using t-rex miner, and phoenix miner being the current fastest.

Mining specs:

gpu: GTX 1080ti
os: debian 11
driver: nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver

Whats the recommended miner and hashrate for ETH on a GTX 1080 Ti?
