Hello all,

I'm new in here. I used to mine ETH but profit has gone down so now I'm trying out Zcash.

Here are stats from my rig:

GPU   Temp   Power   Speed   Efficiency   Accepted   Rejected
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   51 C   66 W   237 Sol/s   3.59 Sol/W   36   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   56 C   74 W   250 Sol/s   3.38 Sol/W   50   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   55 C   70 W   237 Sol/s   3.39 Sol/W   37   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   56 C   73 W   248 Sol/s   3.40 Sol/W   39   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   56 C   76 W   268 Sol/s   3.53 Sol/W   47   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   51 C   77 W   265 Sol/s   3.44 Sol/W   35   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   60 C   75 W   237 Sol/s   3.16 Sol/W   45   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   51 C   74 W   270 Sol/s   3.65 Sol/W   44   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   52 C   73 W   255 Sol/s   3.49 Sol/W   47   0
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB   49 C   72 W   258 Sol/s   3.58 Sol/W   45   0


I have reduced power to 75W for all cards. Efficiency looks ok but I haven't managed to increase sol/s by a significant amount unless I remove the power limit.
If I don't use power limit, sol/s go up to around 3000 but power consumption goes to 1200W.

I have tried to play with memory frequency but the effect is close to nothing. When I was mining ETH, memory frequency had a direct impact on performance, ZEC seems different.

Thanks


ETH you OC memory have more performance

ZEC you need to down memory and OC core  more core  more power = more performance


PS.what you main board for 10PCS?

Hi guys,

The miner is not really stable in my environment - the rig with 6 of GTX 1070.
Sometimes, once a day or once in 2 days, the mining is broken because of different errors (#77 or #46) and the hashrate becomes zero.

That's why I set up the monitoring system.
My first monitoring system was a cloud system that monitors the workers activity on the mining pool through API. And in case of low hashrate, it sends an email.
Then, when I see that email, I can remotely access my rig PC and manually restart the miner.
But that system had the problems - because the refresh rate of the mining pool API could be even 30 min, the email comes with a long delay.
The second problem is manual interaction - I can't physically restart the miner immediately at 3am.

So, I decided to build an automated system to monitor the miner.
And finally it's done - it is MinerKeeper.

Please check this blog post or see the GitHub repository directly.

I hope it will also be very useful for you, as it is very useful for me.

how do you use your program? copy the files to the minor's folder?
Just extract the archive somewhere, and change the configuration in config.json file. And run MinerKeeper.exe - it will start miner automatically.
You can find the details here

I do not have a config.json file

I just bought a 1070 last week to try mining for a bit. I'm getting about 440h/s mining zcash with EWBF's 0.3.4b. Do you think I should buy 6 more 1070s right now or wait till the new Volta GPUS are released?

Thanks

you should wait for 1070ti it coming around 27oct.

 i think 1070ti have around 550-600sol or more

New to crypto mining and zcash. Can the users with more experience give me a sense of how my rig is doing performance wise?

https://imgur.com/a/lXujf
I have in average 440 Sol/s but 116W per each 1070 card.
What OC settings are you using?

From reading here today, my OC settings are probably a little unorthodox, but I'm at 68% Power, +105 Core and +599 RAM.

 68% power is a meaningless statement without the model of the card - the stock TDP on a 1070 can vary a LOT, many at 150 watts many at 180 at least one MSI 1070 model has a stock TDP over 200 watts (and 2 power connectors).

 +core is also meaningless for the same reason.

 +memory is USUALLY useful, most NVidia GDDR5 cards base clock the RAM at 8000 and most GDDR5X cards at 10000, but even THERE exceptions exist.


 To jpl - which Antminers are you talking about getting high reviews? There is no such thing as an Antminer that will mine ZEC or offshoot coins (at least yet).

Why are these Antminers getting such high reviews?  Are they faster than EWBF?


...edit.. I guess these are old since no response.

What hashrate are you guys getting on 1080ti 11GB?

My settings: GPU +180, MEM -500 Power 75%

I'm getting 665-675 Sol/s per card.

What settings are you using if you are getting better than this?

Hi.

I'm running 4 GTX 1060 6 Gb, OC with AfterBurner : 80% power, +150 core, +500 mem

https://i.imgur.com/s0BCC7m.png


Thanks for the response.  How are you running so cool?   I am getting 70's across the board.  Fan set to auto.  Please don't tell me 100% fan speed
Fans are set to 70% but my rig is in my utility room near my garage and I have 4 140mm fan (2 blowing fresh air from behind the cards and 2 blowing on the top of the cards

Regarding the above view.  Is there a way to have all my rigs show up on one browser using the API command?

I did some quick testing to see what I could come up with, and for my setup it works OK.

Code:












Edit the IP.OF.RIG.X, save as "whatever-you-want.html" and see if it fits your needs
Copy/paste the iframe block to add more rigs

Code:


EDIT: This only works if you have actually added the API line in the startup file for your miner.
--api ip.of.rig.1:42000 - the actual IP and not letting it default to 127.0.0.1 for local access only.
And for remote rigs, you will need to use the external IP and set up port forwarding to get it to show

EDIT 2: You may want to change the 350 limit on height - running a few rigs with only 2 cards each, so rigs with more then 2 cards may need some more space then that.

Thanks @Red_Yoda for the suggestion earlier in the thread here

Disclaimer
- I'm running this on a 1080x1920 monitor (i.e flipped to portrait mode) so I get the rigs listed separately one after the other, pretty much like the original API shows them.
- If I'm opening the html file on one of my 1920x1080 landscape screens or my 2K / 4K screens they show up next to each other until the top row is filled and then the next one(s) show up on next row.

This can be adjusted by increasing the width to a larger number if you would prefer them listed one by one under each other.

@qualitas - Thank you for the suggestion.  I will give it a go this weekend.
