Anyone mixing 970 + 1070's in 1 rig?

I'm mixing:

rig 2x970 + 2x1070 = 660-670 Sol
rig 4x970               = 635-661 Sol
rig 1x960 + 1x980   = 213-234 Sol

solo 960 = 59-61 Sol
solo 970 = 143-144 Sol
solo 980 = 159-166 Sol
solo 1070 = 188-189 Sol

all running under  eqm_v1.0.2b_Win64

P.S. i'm not 100% sure, but looks eqm_v1.0.2a SolRate was better, even eqm_v1.0.2a falls at a poor connections


You should be getting higher speed for 960 (probably around 90). That is way too low. eqm 1.0.2a used mode 2 for all cards. You can experiment with modes and see if that brings you higher speed.

GTX 750ti AND GTX 960 PERFORM AT ABOUT THE SAME HASH RATE--

The GTX 750ti cards have 5 CUDA cores, the GTX 960 cards have 8 CUDA cores.  I have noticed that the GTX 960 does not perform much faster than the GTX 750ti on EquiHash.  Certainly not at a ratio of 8 to 5 (8/5x faster).

I am mining with EQM v1.0.2b.      --scryptr  
Hi scryptr  The 750ti has 640 CUDA cores.

THE 750ti HAS 640 CUDA CORES--

YOU ARE RIGHT.  I was thinking of Thread Blocks (TB), and my post was incorrect.  The 750ti has 5  TB vs 8 TB for the GTX 960.  Here is a comparison chart:


GTX 750ti vs GTX 960 (taken from "www.hwcompare.com").

I somehow confused CUDA cores with TB, because TB are used to set up the launch parameters for mining CryptoNight.  CryptoNight is another slow-hashing algorithm, and I have noticed that the GTX 960 is similar in performance to the GTX 750ti with CryptoNight algorithm, also.  The GTX 960 should be significantly better performer based on hardware comparison.

Apologies for the error!         --scryptr

when will it be available to use on other pools?  Huh

they sure do, if you undervolt(with OC and heavy TDP limit voltage drop per clock on same cards as gainward, gigabyte etc..) and run 2x exe file you can get 220sol with 115-120w per card

Pascal cards I think still have better ratio performance/watt. GTX 1070 gives 200 Sol @ 130 W.

Agree ver A had few issues as crash after disconnect and also random crashes, B no issue so for

I hope there is more room for optimization, AMD miners is quite competitive on Equihash, 280x 200sol/s and 390x 300sol/s, would be nice if 1070 can at least match 390x with heavy memory OC

You should not use ver a, it was only private alpha, never announced by us and is unstable, has memory leak and eventually crashes.

ver b has no issues, not a single crash report so far, it works superbly stable for everyone. There is no reason to use ver a.

Anyone mixing 970 + 1070's in 1 rig?

I'm mixing:

rig 2x970 + 2x1070 = 660-670 Sol
rig 4x970               = 635-661 Sol
rig 1x960 + 1x980   = 213-234 Sol

solo 960 = 59-61 Sol
solo 970 = 143-144 Sol
solo 980 = 159-166 Sol
solo 1070 = 188-189 Sol

all running under  eqm_v1.0.2b_Win64

P.S. i'm not 100% sure, but looks eqm_v1.0.2a SolRate was better, even eqm_v1.0.2a falls at a poor connections


Mine doesn't display what cards are doing what hashrate. Only the total hashrate.  But I'm still using v1.0.2a.

b version is the same it does not display single card just the total hash, i dunno if they fixed the crash and the other bug with it, but i see something strange when mining with this miner

my gpu fan spin faster for a short time than return to normal, really annoying...

Yes, but GTX 960 also has 96KB of shared memory per SM (instead of 64KB). They do both have only 128 bit bus, which is a limiting factor. We will review settings when we get a hold of a GTX 960 and see what can be done regarding parameters. Does anyone have a GTX 950? How does that one perform?

My 750ti 6 card rig hangs too.

Due to sudden high inflow of new miners, we had some issues. But should be resolved now and working fine.
Ok Thank you.  Is there anyway of putting in an intensity setting so I can use the card my monitor is hooked up to and mine with it? Thx

mode 1 and 2 gives almost same
mode 3 decrease hash

what drivers you advise to use?

thanks!

eqm_v1.0.2b_Win64 sets M=2
eqm_v1.0.2a was M=1

so it can be a reason

Your miner I said..so EQM 1.0.2b :-D
It reported constanly above 1000sol/s while the site shows just 500-600sol/s..

Something don't fit.
The miner says 1024sol/s the web interface says 624sol/s with your miner.

Also would it be possible to set the diff?
