6 x 1080 Ti - 4 at 720+ Sol/s but two at ~680 Sol/s

Sometimes have the same problem go to UEFI and change pcie gen 1 to gen3 and restart everything work ok. The last driver is problem I instal 381.xx not new and the miner is not good tree or five restart you card work ok.

this wrong over clock setting dude

All of GPU power gose for memory clock and it`s useless with Zcash mining

just look at your Core clock it`s only 1594 .!!! no way you can get over 600 sols with that core

any way just link Power limit with Temp limit

and put power limit on 75-80 %

Core clock 180-190

memory clock -350 -380

i your core clock hit 1847 MHZ then you`ll see 700-720 sol/s

@Yerr0r if I decreas the memory clock from +400 to -300 I get approx. 0.20 sols/w less.

I adore when people put this misinformation in writing when it is a proven fact that you will increase your H/s rate mining Zcash when you increase your memory clock along with the core clock.

Run a 1080ti with just core at +75 run for 5 minutes get your base average; then leaving the core at +75 increase memory to +550 and run for 5 minutes - your base average WILL be higher

I tried before to squash this myth that overclocking the memory does nothing but I was met with a whole lot of dismissal. That being said, the 1080 Ti’s already have a buttload of memory and it doesn’t overclock as high/well as the lower models. But it doesn’t negate the fact that overclocking the memory does indeed increase your clock speed. I wish people would stop saying it doesn’t.

Lots of folks put down over locking numbers and very few give you any indication of how stable those settings are. I’d be curious to know, particularly for hose OC’ing their memory to +500 and up…how long are your systems running before crashing? How long are your cards running before dying? I’m having a hard time believing that they’re going to run for 1y+ with aggressive settings like that, but I’ll be the first to admit that I have no data to support this.

Furthermore…I did a back of the envelope call the other day and basically discovered that, at current difficulty, squeezing an extra 200 H/s out of my cards would yield 0.5 Z per year. I’m all for optimization, but I’d rather up my probability of long card life when meager returns like this are at stack. Simply an opinion though.

PS I got a nice +20 H/s per card (x8) for a 100 MHz memclock speed up . In most cases, it does work. FWIW, my 1080 Tis showed no perceptible increase in H/s between +100 and +300.

ZCash does not need to overclock the memory is enough alone in my core 5x GTX 1080ti works 85% power 180+ core

Here are the settings I’m using. Very stable. I have a scheduled reboot on Sunday and Wednesday and a notification if the miner restarts EWBF. If EWBF errors more than 3 times it also auto reboots the machine and notifies me, but that rarely happens.


Once more read it well before be angry one me :smile:

i only have 75% power limit so i need my coreclock to hit 1850 MHZ area if i overclock my memory to +500 and i already had +180 on core clock my gpu will crash and miner as well :slight_smile:

any way it`s Diff from GPU and another with this Previous setting that i mentioned up i get 710-730 sol/s and each Gpu take 180-200 Watt

Obviously it’s the temp limit slider you set it at 65c so when the card reached 65c the card will throttle the power to control the temp limit set by you.

as i said it`s Diff from each GPU and another one you need to discover how to get 1850-1880 MHZ on Core clock with less power limit so you can save your gpu from higher Temp

as you can see here alot of overclcok setting

some one here share with me his overclock setting for same GPU msi duke his setting was
80-85 power limit
+200 Core clock
+500 memory clock
when i used this setting on my gpu EWBF miner crash all the time
all of miners prog can`t mine at all at the end my system crash as well
but this setting worked with him very well but with me it did not work even we have same GPU model :slight_smile:

I’m having the same issue here - cards that should be identical are not in reality. I’m going to check the BIOS for each GPU to see if they have different versions flashed. Either way it’s weird - does not seem to be related to power consumption or temps in my case.

Every rig has it’s sweet spot, you just have to find it. As Yerr0r pointed out - one of my rigs with two gtx 1080ti’s runs great at 80% power, +200 gpu core clock and +550 memory clock, fans at 70%. I built another 4 card rig, same motherboard, processor and GPU’s (MSI gtx 1080ti Duke) and it’s unstable at anything more than 80% power, +175 gpu core clock and +300 memory clock. Start with everything at 0, see if it’s stable then go up in increments of 50 until it gets unstable then drop back some and see if it smooths out. Realistically if you want good temps and low electricity usage then you should look for the area around 750 sol/s

Good luck!

Exactly. You are only as strong as your weakest link. My issue as well, is you are only as strong as your highest ambient temp during the afternoon. I have to keep my clocks down a bit because during the summer it got so hot in my office in the afternoon. There are many limiting factors. I tend to average about 715 sol/sec on most of my 1080 tis, but I have one that will not stay above 670 when up to temp.

This is just how the silicon lottery goes people. The design and ship any cards that meet the MINIMUM design standard for the card. Some cards might greatly exceed those standards though. Just like a lottery, you don’t quite know what you will get.
