Topic: GUIminer throttle for CUDA? (Read 2112 times)
im not sure exactly what thats cards temps are good to, youd need to look that up. but as mentioned your only way is underclocking or better cooling for case or/and card. but either way its prob not worth worrying about it too much with a nvidia card.
-f wont reduce your temps, it just helps with responsiveness while using computer. how hot are we talking ?
Beyond 85 Celsius. At idle it's 50 Celsius, and games put it in the 60-75 range.

what you may be talking about is -f ?? this priority not throttle, one suggestion to keep temps down is underclock or increase fans
What value should I set -f to for lower temperatures? Underclocking doesn't help that much, and my fan speed increases as temperature increases, but doesn't keep it from going way up.

Q: My temperatures are too high, can I throttle the GPU so it runs slower but cooler?
A: If you are mining using OpenCL you can use the -s flag a value such as 0.01 in order to force the GPU to sleep for 0.01 seconds in between runs. Increase or decrease this value until you have the desired GPU utilization.

I need a way to throttle my GTX 260 to prevent it from getting too hot. I noticed there is a flag for OpenCL users, so I was wondering if there is a flag I can add to my CUDA GUIminer. Thanks.
