Hi, can anyone help?
I have same 4 ASUS 1060 3GB, all OC, but one works slowly then others.

ETH: 05/31/17-02:41:36 - New job from eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999
ETH - Total Speed: 78.055 Mh/s, Total Shares: 7, Rejected: 0, Time: 00:06

What are the complete specifications of your system, to include riser type?

Have you tried swapping out the riser on that card?

How are you powering your risers?

I have old asrock 970 extreme4 with 4 ASUS 1060 3G. USB powered risers Blue 006C. In ZEC mining mode cards work with same hashrate, but ETH

I updated the MSI Z170A GAMING M5 image (in stock, 7x gpu (all OC))

see: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19203907

now supports OC on all 7x GPUs.

going to buy a few of asus prime h270 plus 6x pcie slot + 2 x M.2 and will this mobo work?
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/PRIME-H270-PLUS/

there is 2 m.2 slot as well can we run 8 GPU on this?

Also i have one rig running nvOC on sandisk ultra usb 3 stick 16gb all seems running well, one issue i have is the boot takes almost 1 min. compare to simplemining its big difference. any idea how can i improve the boot up time?
maybe a 32gb faster usb sticks?

I won't have more m2 adapters until the weekend. I haven't tested any h270 mobos yet, not sure if they will be able to do 8 GPUs with adapters. If that is your intent: I would make sure you use at least G4560 cpus. I will order one of these tomorrow for testing.

Boot time was never something I was considering; I'm not sure why you would need to reboot your rig at all. SmOS boots quickly because it is running in console mode (x is not loaded). If there is enough interest I can make a console image, but when you consider the frequency of needing to boot your rig, I think there are more useful improvements I can make first.

The image of nvOC is 14.9gb but the two 16gb usb sticks I have tried only have 14.7gb or 14.8gb capacity.
I keep getting errors at the end when using hddrawcopy Sad

What USB sticks are you using? Is it this one https://www.amazon.com/Lexar-JumpDrive-16GB-Flash-Drive/dp/B00S5V5PMY?th=1 ?

No they didn't have the ones that fullzero recommended so I just bought 2 different brands and both are too small, result in errors on hdrawcopy and won't boot nvOC. I'll go and get a 32gb Tomorrow and then have another shot.

same here, i used sandish ultra flair 16gb, error at about 95%,
will try on another stick.

I think bentcrypto is probably right about getting a 32gb USB key if you can't find the Lexar 16gb. Most USB keys will be under listed capacity.

Just finished my first Nvidia rig with 6 x Gigabyte 1070 and a MSI Z270-A Pro.

nvOC works perfectly, now mining a couple of hours on your addresses.
Currently doing around 2600 Sol/s @ 857 Watt at the wall.

I do have a few questions:
- Is there a way to edit oneBASH remotely, using ssh? Not really happy doing this on the rig itself..
- Is it wise to run apt to upgrade Ubuntu packages?

After testing the rig(s) will be in a remote location, and a monitoring tool with basic reload functions would be nice. I do understand that you have quie a few things on your plate, although I would believe the remote part is of more interest than an AMD version, they do already exist in a few different flavours.

I think installing Minerstat on nvOC is possible, but that would probably undermine the finetuning you've done.

Thanks for making nvOC!

Thanks for hashes Grin

Glad you like nvOC.

Using teamviewer is probably the easiest way right now. For ssh and related protocols: I really like this tool: http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/

I am not familiar with minerstat; but nvOC is Ubuntu 16.04 based so you should be able to install/run any linux program.

I just confirmed that the ASUS PRIME Z270-A image works without an m2 adapter as well to OC all 7x GPUs: up to 9x gpu (all OC) with 2x m2 adapters.

What do you mean by "(only 6x OC)" for the z170/z270 boards? Can this OS support 7 cards with those boards?

~~and you say usb key only....does that mean an M.2 drive will not work? what size ssd is required?~~

My rigs running nvoc are offsite and I have installed Teamviewer to remote control the rig, including finetuning oneBASH file.

Yes; there is a link in the OP as well.

I was asking him to see if they did not have the capacity needed with some of the images, would you recommend the 32gb sticks to alleviate this issue / have you tested them? I do not mind spending 4 dollars to delete a possible headache xD

I am not sure what USB keys bentcrypto is using. It is unfortunate that most companies market USB keys beyond the actual usable capacity.

The 16gb Lexar USB keys I recommend have a 16.0 gb capacity, any of the nvOC images will fit on one.

The 32gb version is marginally faster. The only other reason I can think of to get the 32gb vs the 16gb (while the 16gb is still $8) is if you really like the color orange.

Okay that is great news, and I was contemplating the 64gb because I love green haha xD
I have 2x 16gb on order

I have funny situation with my 6 x Zotac 1070 Minis....

doing lspci --- I see 6 x VGA devices

but EWBF mines with only 5 cards

Did I forget to change a setting in onebash for 6 cards?

Motherboard is using MSI Z270-A PRO.

Ran same rig with Win10..... same thing.... EWBF and other miners..... sees only 5 cards but this time Device Manager also sees five cards

Let the rig mine for a bit (lower fan speed if using manual fans) so that the cards that are recognized get hot and can be distinguished from the one that is INOP. (it may not be the one you expect by indexing)

Identify the card that is INOP.

Power off the rig and try using that card by itself in the primary 16x slot on any mobo.

This should tell you if the card itself is bad.

You may be able to still use those USB despite the error and slightly less capacity (you might have only missed unnecessary files). Most likely not.

Give it try anyway.
