Is anyone else out there mining with Founders Edition 1070s? What OC/power settings are you using?
I've been running ~3 hours stable with:
__CORE_OVERCLOCK=200
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=900
-pl 105
How much further can/should I push this with only 105W power? I'm stuck with 2 cards per PCI-E cable until next week when I get a shipment of new cables.

Is it better to use the v15 image or the specific image for my board you created ?
Just to be clear, HDDRawCopy (Link) is the image link I need to download for this build correct?
No, HDDRawCopy is the imaging software you use to write the image to your flash drive. http://www.hddguru.com/software/HDD-Raw-Copy-Tool/
This is the v0015 image: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3ra23kLdr5lamlnRFRfanVGREE/view?usp=sharing
OP, I am up and running w/ OC and manual fan speed now that my risers arrived and I can run multi-GPU. Obviously none of the End Users are going to be running single-GPU so there's no point in troubleshooting that further.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your hard work. I am going to run this rig for 24 hours (from 9pm EDT tonight till 9pm EDT Saturday) using your Ethereum address to show my appreciation, and hope others will follow my lead on this. I am not a stranger to Linux, but very much a novice, and I was not making much progress in getting Nvidia to play nice with Ubuntu. You saved me quite a bit of time and headaches. Keep up the great work!

@fullzero, V015 is working perfectly!
Not sure if you like it, but to speed up the boot process, you might want to consider the following:
sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/90-m1
and add the following line:
m1 ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
There will be no password asking when sudoing, that way you can loose all the expects, passwords and sleeps in the bash files.

That would be convenient. If there is enough interest in this I will make a password-less version.
I am not sure if I want to allow EWBF or Claymore run as root. Being closed source I can't review the code and ensure it is all on the up and up.
Don't get me wrong; it wouldn't be in the best interests of EWBF or Claymore to put malicious code in their miners: so I don't think it is the case.
But IMO slightly slower boot is worth better peace of mind.
If anyone else wants a password-less version: let me know.
Well it's not really password-less, it just removes the need for entering a password when you 'sudo' a command. So the miners don't run as root, it's just for nvidia-smi commands to run in oneBash as (sudo)root without expect. I'm personally not into a password-less version.

When I first experimented with nvoc, I replaced ETH addresses to mine, reboot and BUT it started mining ZEC instead.....
... later I found out that I need to also change the COIN to ETH instead of the default ZEC....
Maybe that's the case below with the 6xZotac1070.... 2800mhs, 6 cards that is about right...

In oneBash, the power limits should be variables.
As previously said, putting at least oneBash script on github would make modifications easy to follow and we could propose diffs.

noob question, but does it matter which slot the ram goes into on the motherboard?
Matters. You should read more about RAM memory channels.
Rule of thumb.
1st stick goes to slot nearest to CPU.
Then alternate slot if you use 2 sticks.
Linux rigs with 4gb is more than sufficient.
Windows minimum 4gb, ideal 8gb.
Is anyone heaving issues with ZEC miner? I have 4 cards in one of my rigs: 1050ti, 1060 6G and 2x 1070 and it's running at full speed and after few minutes the mining speed drops to like 40% and after 2-3 minutes it's back to full speed and it's doing that over and over again...
I have all cards with around 70% tdp +140 clock and memory at stock.

Matters. You should read more about RAM memory channels.
If you are only using 1 dimm it really doesn't matter. If you are using 2 dimms then you need to read the motherboard manual and see which 2 slots to use.
When using only one dimm on a z270 chipset; I use the second slot counting from the CPU side.
Yeah I am only using one, Thanks for the info!

Hello, i'm getting the following error: https://pastebin.com/raw/y71QELyk
Using Z97X MBO and GTX1060 that aren't plugged in yet but getting some system errors about nvidia-smi command doesn't exist and nvidia-ml library doesn't exist. Moved oneBash to desktop and changed 2unix to correct paths. The system is run from SSD. Tried reimaging the disk a couple of times but same errors appear. Currently using onboard graphics for video over VGA and waiting for GPU delivery in the morning.
Reading the complete topic now to see if the error has been resolved somewhere.
Thanks

Well, I put 5 1070's (6 wouldn't work?) on an ASRock z97x mobo and cranked up the miner, but I get a grub error at startup:
--> cannot find boot/grub/i386/pc/normal.mod
Seems like its a partition configuration issue, but since that is out of my control, maybe its the motherboard or the bios? Is the z97x a compatible board?
Thanks!

Hello,
I found solution for the overclocking.
My driver version is NVIDIA 381.22
Use these two commands reboot and OC is not a myth anymore
command1:
nvidia-xconfig -s -a --allow-empty-initial-configuration \
--cool-bits=12 --registry-dwords="PerfLevelSrc=0x2222" \
--no-sli --connected-monitor="DFP-0" -o /etc/X11/xorg.conf
command2:
sed -i '/Driver/a Option "Interactive" "False"' /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Hey guys
would "MSI z170a gaming pro carbon" + "Intel Celeron G3900" work with 6 x GTX 1080Ti ?
I noticed some people are putting quiet "beefy" CPUs into their rigs, can someone explain why? Does it have something to do with PCIE support?
Also @fullzero, thanks for all the work you put into this!

I haven't tested that mobo; I would expect a bios flash and a few bios setting changes would be needed. I recommend getting one of the z270 chipset mobo's I have tested: see the OP.
IMO spending ~$20 more on a G4560 to "know" I will not have any CPU related problems is worth it. Also if you plan on mining longterm, slightly better XMR hashrates with around the same power draw will pay for the difference, and then the entire CPU cost eventually.
Fullzero, based around your software
What is the best bang for buck rig setup you'd recommend?
Cards? Board? CPU? Psu? Etc
As my favorite card: Zotac 1070 minis are now 400+
If I had the power space to build another rig right now; this is what I would buy:
$1680 7x 1060 AMP (regular amp only!) https://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-ZT-P10600B-10M-Compact-Graphics/dp/B01I5O5AP2

$6 molex adapter https://www.amazon.com/CGTime-Express-Molex-Power-Cable/dp/B01MXDXAKZ
$8 Lexar-JumpDrive-16GB USB key
$67 Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR4 ram
$75 G4560 CPU https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIABB75KW6577
$3 ATX power switch
$122 EVGA GQ-1000 psu
$65 or less pcie powered risers 7x pack pm hawkfish007
$100 or less make your own frame out of wood or using 8020.net parts
total $2278
expected hashrate using OC of +150cc and +900mc:
~2240+ sol/s for ~815 watts-at-the-wall @ 105 pl
1.02 $/hash (hash in sol/s)
Why the $6 molex adapter?
Sorry, typo, GTX 1070
I'm in the process of re-imaging my flash drive to eliminate any possibility of that being an issue and will update accordingly.

Hello I have same problem like UberDaemon with Asus Z270-P a few empty rows and no overclocking active for my cards (1060s) i have tested v0015 the result is the same.
I even built my own ubuntu and installed CUDA+driver the result is the same.
nvidia-smi is returning information that for that GPU there is no other supported clocks than base ones. Which is not true because on windows i had overclock them a lot.
P.S when i edit the xorg.conf with coolbits option i don't see "Edittable Performance" section on Powermizer on nvidia-settings.
Please if anyone knows something about that issue respond
I doubt that this is an image issue because it's happening on another linux installation as well. More like drivers/settings in my opinion.
I have one of these motherboards, but it is boxed. I will get it out tonight and try to replicate what is happening myself. In order to replicate the situation as closely as possible: what CPU are each of you using?
On rig G3930 , but i'm doing some settings of the image on another PC so there i have i3 2120 no luck there also.
