Topic: New to mining - Need help with 3060 Laptop version. (Read 79 times)
A laptop with RTX3060 GPU costs alot I hope you are ready for any possible outcome? Honestly my advice is don't mine in your laptop for 24hours a day or you will sell it off after mining ends, if you tend to keep the laptop don't mine every day with the laptop you will kill it fast
Hello everyone, 
So I am new to mining stuff. I am currently mining on My Laptop (ASUS ROG G15) which has NVIDIA 3060 card.
As you can see in the picture, I get like 41 MH/S but the GPU will consume like 85W and the temp gets to like 80 degrees or more. I believe that is not really safe for a laptop.
When I apply power saving from Armoury Create (Asus Software) I could reduce the GPU Watt to like 60W or 58W but then the hash rate would drop down to 36 MH/S.
My question is: can I still get the 41 MH but while reducing the watt to like 60 or 70? I tried to do this but as you can see, MSI Afterburner won't let me modify the core voltage /or power limit. I don't know if this problem is in all Asus laptops or not.
Question 2: there is also another problem, I am using NiceHash, so when I go to sleep and lock my laptop (win + L) the hash rate would drop to like 30 - 24!
Is there a solution to this problem?
Thanks in Advance.
Your rtx3060 is maxp version and can do 48mhs with some memory oc with afterburner, to override voltage&clock use curve setting in msi afterburner, and for temperature you can only change the fan in software control panel build-up from vendor, turn all fan and set to 80% or more, that would turn down heat under 65c, So I am new to mining stuff.

When mining on a laptop, I would recommend disconnecting the battery (if it is removable)
This puts unnecessary strain on the battery charge controller.
Then you need to turn off the power-saving, blocking modes and take care of additional cooling of the laptop if you want it to work for a long time.

Thanks for sharing. What about your GPU power saver, do you put it on Extreme or leave it at default status?
GPU Power Saver in Default state.Anyway, do not forget to save battery when mining and change on MyAsus utility to charge battery to 60% or 80%.
I have ASUS G14 with Ryzen CPU and RTX3060 (80W).
Hashrate of mobile RTX3060 is 38MH/s and I have extra 2MH/s from VEGA CPU with TeamBlackMiner 1.06 on Nicehash pool.
Armoury Crate - Manual mode with GPU settings - Base clock offset = 0/200 MHz and Memory Clock Offset = 300/300MHz.
