No command line parameters besides specifying the basics - url:port, username and password. I do my overclocking with MSI AB for now.

What parameters are you using with hsrminer then?

I'm trying to use hsrminer too with my 5x1080 rig but it just keeps crashing. Settings that are working perfectly well in ccminer-KlausT (80% TDP, +110 core, +500 mem) crash several times a day with hsrminer.

I'm using -i 7 -c 4.

Hmm, interesting. My test board with the single GTX 1080 in it has an AMD FX-8300 CPU and so far I haven't had any stability problems with hsrminer, but, then again, I haven't been running it long. I, too, was using ccminer-KlausT before this and had no complaints, just the average hashrate was around 1020 kH/s, so if hsrminer is true to its claims then it's a good 20% faster right off the bat.

I have a lone GTX 1080 FE that I've been playing around with and I am having a really tough time zeroing in on optimization for Neoscrypt. I've found the best mining program for it so far - hsrminer, see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hsrminer-nvidia-mining-software-for-various-algos-by-palginalexkap-2565979 - but tinkering with clock rate and memory and power limit (haven't yet resorted to voltage adjustments) isn't changing things much. Right now I am getting around 1200 kH/s (or is it 1.2 kH/s, as minethecoin insists?) with power limit at 85%, core clock at +150 (actual clock is bouncing around 1725 MHz) and mem clock at +300 (rock steady at 4811 MHz).

These are exactly the same settings I use for Equihash and my understanding is that Neoscrypt can be pushed quite a bit harder... am I far off base here or doing pretty good?
