This looks nice so far .
I have a GTX 1070 Gaming X with Micron memory. Anybody knows how much I can push these in Linux ?
In windows I can get them between 30-31 but only if Claymore is already running . If i want to start it with mem oc +600 it crashes

On nvOC is see that my Mh/s is lower it I oc mem to +600. I get around 28mh ... lower then for same settings in Win . Am I doing something wrong ?
Thanks !

I don't have a Gaming X 1070; but some 1070s will OC stability up to 1100. I have noticed that the OC offsets don't have the same results in linux as in windows; you should have to OC a little higher in linux to have the same result. However you should also be able to OC higher in linux for this same reason.

When using Ethash, setting the mc OC too high will most likely result in a Claymore soft crash. Setting the cc OC too high will most likely crash the system. I would keep bumping up the mc OC by 100 until you get a Claymore soft crash. Then reduce it by 50, and see if it is ok. If not down another 50.

I tried ETH with a 6x zotac 1070 mini rig; for short term at least this was the highest stable setting: cc+200, mc+1100, powerlimit 125 (because more power did not generate more hash).

I noticed too that CC does very little with other hash on Eth, while memory does a lot more.

Also are you mining ZEC right now instead? Do you have some numbers on your 1070's? I was averaging around 440sol/s each.

I am mining with MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X. Using MSI Afterburner.

CC does very little for me on ETH.

Currently in Windows 10. Using MSI Afterburner I can boost to +800 on mc if claymore is already started. I have seen it run for hours and also fail a lot with this setting, so I stopped it. I am currently set to +715 mc and it will boot into claymore okay. Occasional soft fail, but usually cause i was messing around with something. Mainly if I plug in a monitor or turn one on it can fail. If I just leave it alone with no monitor it stays going. Current is 30.9 M/H per card in a 6 rig configure. Slightly lower in my 5 rig, because I have an issue with one card, need to update BIOS on that mobo. Both rigs using MSI Z270-A Pro mobo.

You can use the OC after building the DAG trick with linux as well; it is possible to get a 1070 up to 33 MH/s with that trick if you use the right Old drivers and Old Claymore version.

Unless you want to babysit a rig; I don't recommend doing this.

It is inherently unstable ( what I call OC type 2 ) see: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19313060

I have no desire to babysit. I am seeking the highest level that is stable (as everyone is). My one BIG issue is when I get a soft failure occasionally I lose the MC setting on the card that caused the failure and it reverts to zero. So the M/H rate drops to about 25.5 on that one card. If I go into Afterburner it shows default settings for the card. Not sure if this is caused by the nVidia driver, I am using 382.05, is there a better older driver I should be using? I am unsure about the switch to nvOC. I have so much time invested in current setup that I hate to start over and relearn. Although I do like a challenge.

If you do try nvOC; I would keep your Windows install.

I recommend imaging nvOC to a USB key: either one of the Lexar's I recommend or a fast 32gb of another brand.

This way you can either disconnect your SSD or HDD with Windows or use the appropriate keys for your mobo to open the boot menu at poweron; and select the USB as the boot device. You would still have your Windows install if you decide you like it better; or need to use Windows for some other reason.

some of my rigs mine 12 hours straight no issue. some after 1 hour the terminal seems lags and hashrates dropped significantly. until i close the terminal. all smooth. without restarting the ubuntu, gpu wont apply OC saying failed to applied or something and the lags begins.

tried lower down the oc on core and mem did not help. it seems like a random freeze/lags issue happening. if GPU failure the watchdog of claymore works fine. something its still hashing, just real slow because of the lags and watchdog wont kick in.

any idea?

So far I'm at 1100 mem OC and 150 cc - 30mh and 135 power limit
1100 mem OC and 150 cc - 30.145mh 100 power limit . ?!
Haven't messed with anything else .
For AMD ... lowering the core didn't lower the mh ... it reduced the consumption also it didn't help much to increase it . How are things for these 10x0 models ?
Do you accept donations ?

The opt cc for Ethash is dependent on what your model 1070 stock clock setting is (some are lower, some higher so the optimal offset is different for each).

In general lots of core OC will not help.

I will accept donations when this platform is more developed.

For now you can mine for me if you want; but I what I would really like is for you to tell everyone you know about Crypto and help it go mainstream faster.
