I just switched mining from ETH to ZEC. For Asus GTX 1070 Dual OC, I’m getting 425sol with overclock +150 core and +450 mem. Is this par? Could someone please suggest me OC setting for Asus GTX 1070 Dual OC to get better sol rate

What is your power consumption?
With proper overclocking GTX1070 gives 470-480 Sol/s at 150W, result of 420-430 can be reached at 120W power consumption.
OC settings also as Downvolting settings are individual for each card and their selection depeneds on what is more important for you: power consumtion/temperature or hashrate

It’s consuming 135W and giving around 435-440sols right now. Current overclocking with +150 core and +600 memory with 90% power.

I have the same OS. I switched Zcash miner. 100% turnover of cooler, above average noise level. It produce 470, 475, sometimes 480 sol. Temperature 58. Temperature in the room 27, speed 100%, memory clock 600, power limit 100%. I think this is max level which is possible make with settings.

I did the same.

+150 CORE
+ 550 MEM
75% Power Target

Core is a little more important than Memory for Equihash.

That seems about normal. I am using EWBF 0.3.4b and getting around 500 sol/s with GTX 1070 MSI Gaming X on flypool.  My settings are 75% power +150 Core and +550 Memory.  Seems to run pretty stable with no issues for over a week.  I have switched for now to mine some smaller coins that I think will rise over the next month or two but will be returning to Zcash at the end of the month to pay for electricity costs.

Mem: +0

Power: 100%
Avg Hashrate: ~438 sols/s per card

6x Gigabyte GTX 1070 ROG STRIX - Windows 10 -EWBF ZEC miner 0.3.4b

dstm's ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.5.4 (Linux / Windows)

used it, better than EWBF Nvidia miner

I manage to get a hashrate of 20 sol/s higher with EWBF 0.3.4b over dstm 0.5.4
