tehinternet posted:I've got an EVGA GTX1070 FTW, what -if any- are the risks to overclocking memory on a 1070? What is a decent target? I've been arbitrarily sitting at +500mHz while at a 70% power target and underclocking the GPU 200mHz to decent effect. Historically you are at higher risk of sudden heart failure than damaging memory with OC on modern GPU's

Its a 150 watt or less card if you dont OC it iirc. Even at $2 a day thats worth it many times over as long as a third card works in the computer Got my second cashout today. Im going to start holding onto it for fee purposes but im quite glad it hasnt been a scam so far!! Thanks OP!!!

Alpha 2.0.0.8 was released. Have to redo settings and benchmark but it saves the last wallet address. My 1080ti went up 74 cents and 45 cents with my 1080 with the same miner it was running just 5 minutes before. Dont know if coincidence https://mobile.twitter.com/NiceHashMining/status/883412525638979586?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet

Something weird happened maybe an hour ago to both my miners. They are in two different machines in two different locations but this happened at the same time. My 1080ti was putting out ~1.9 mBTC a day and my 1080 was doing ~1.6. The power usage graph, temperatures, etc are generally constant and I have a good idea what they always are. Suddenly the power usage started fluctuating a lot, I actually noticed it because the miner sitting next to me started making audible variable coil whine that matched up with the power usage graph. The temperature dropped 4 degrees, the core clock dropped a bit where its no longer boosting as much as it was, and on both machines and the output dropped about 0.4 mBTC. I restarted them, changed miners, and it nothing seems to have "fixed" it. Now the GPU usage graphs still show pegged at 100% and the mining rates don't seem off either. It's weird to me that this is happening in two different places with different miners on different cards ... I'm not sure what to make of it.

craig588 posted:This is unrelated, but if you want to test something with your 1080 for me try downloading the latest build of Nvidia Inspector https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Orbmu2k/nvidiaprofileinspector/build/artifacts and disabling Cuda - Force P2 state under section 5 - Common (If you haven't used Nvidia inspector before make sure you hit apply in the top right corner). See if the driver obeys that setting and changes your memory speed from 4514 back to 5004 while running Nicehash. I don't have Nicehash installed anymore because it's not worth it for me with my power costs anymore or I'd test it myself, but I'd love to finally find a reliable way to speed up everyones memory on Pascal cards. Yeah that totally did that, it bumped it up to 5000 immediately. It also reset the memory OC in Afterburner to 0, what the heck is that about  My original issue is still ongoing but poof magical 1000 mhz increase in memory speed is sure nice  craig588 posted:I don't have the Ti, but I got a Zotac 1080 Amp Extreme and it had the worst fans I've ever had on a high end videocard. The only reason I kept it was because I get GPUs on launch and it was months before anything else was in stock. My solution was replacing the stock fans with some Dell branded ones that were much quieter and pushed a lot more air. I wish I knew the model numbers of them, but all I know is I pulled them out of my salvaged fan box and they just say 12V and the current they draw on them. I just saw a video about that particular card and the cooler on the Ti has some other design flaws but at least the fan noise wasn't a big issue it seemed. Also I've been seeing videos pop up about using liquid metal pastes on GPUs to great result on Pascal cards, might be worth looking into. I'm going to be testing that on both a Gigabyte 1080 G1 (pretty poor fan performance overall) and a EVGA 1080ti SC2 ICX today or tomorrow and see what happens. I have some leftover from Haswell delidding days 1gnoirents fucked around with this message at 19:19 on Jul 10, 2017 |

Fruit Chewy posted:I'm strongly skeptical that liquid metal is really gonna be a huge difference on a GPU vs any good paste. I bet if you replace the stock poo poo with NT-H1 or something you'll see gains too. Well I'm gonna guinea pig it up for you all. The results I saw were compelling though if they were sponsored videos they were very much pretending like they were not. I'm personally not worried about those pins, though it should be a concern in general. I've worked with this stuff enough and checked long term performance (and whether if it leaks around or not) where I'm confident I'm not gonna get anywhere near those pins. It's much harder on some delidded CPU's, the pins are practically touching the die itself and its still relatively easy if you're careful about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbFKNTES5zc There were a couple Pascal vids, there are some that didnt work much at all (FE) and some that worked much better edit: it also helps that I already know and have data on what paste does on like the last 15 gpus, including at least the 1080 I currently have (which was about 0 degrees or within the margin of error, whereas other cards particularly Kepler cards could get almost 15 degrees from paste alone but its completely brand dependent and card specific even). I should have lead in with the fact I'm a GPU repasting whore and I used to beg people to do the same here so this is well within my comfort zone 1gnoirents fucked around with this message at 23:19 on Jul 10, 2017 |

Gwaihir posted:I'm not sure about that, but I started getting GPU crashes a few days after re-pasting my laptop. Opened it back up and found a miniscule drop had migrated out from the GPU and was resting against the side of one of the memory chips. I was able to extract it with some compressed air and alcohol wipes, and haven't seen a crash for a while while stress testing my GPU's vram, so I might have lucked out, but yikes. In the past I've used a non conductive paste on the pins to protect from leakage (and nail polish though that isn't as clean as I thought it'd be), I may as well do that here but for real the pins are really far on these... if I remember. I've decided to do this to the 1080 right now after I get a few baseline temps. Also I just realized all I've got left is the pastey style of coollabratory stuff on hand so while I might lose some sick gainZ, it is practically foolproof. I am very interested if it has effect on this 1080 because I know there is zero effect with regular paste on this particular card (Gigabyte G1) for certain, which is actually a trend I've seen with Gigabyte cards in general (970, 980, 1070, 1080). Frankly it probably won't do much or anything but I am interested to find out. The EVGA 1080ti SC2 ICX has so far been untouched so I'll go ahead and do good regular paste then the CLU afterwards. In all likelihood the difference in performance gains will show that it is indeed not worth going liquid metal based but I'm interested to see. I just realized this is the crypto thread but if I get anything neat results wise I'll crosspost edit: in progress! fun fact, teamviewer does not play well with 3dmark or heaven so I had to find a monitor and do it old school :|  edit: Well I got some baselines however my CLU is simply too old to trust imo. I see some separation. I have some thermal grizzly coming on Wednesday so I'll take it up again then. But, I'm glad in a way, I want to use more "legitimate" stuff anyway 1gnoirents fucked around with this message at 00:35 on Jul 11, 2017 |

Keep in mind guys a huge glaring factor last time with the 290 purge in that during the mining craze it went from a $600 card that was worth $600 against the competition (780ti, although not really, but still) to barely being competitive with a $300 card (970's hit $300 when it all went to hell). I do believe the main reason was huge supply of course but I wouldn't hold your breath trying to pick up 1080's for $200 next month. The pricing should be good to pretty great if it goes down but people are still going to be willing to pay a closer to retail new prices than not, which in reality was all that happened last time too if you adjust for price/performance at the time. The perfect storm would be, say, a surprise volta launch at the same time but I dont see that one happening anymore AMD cards will probably be pretty awesome prices because MSRP was already very low to start with

Spatial posted:seems like an apples to oranges comparison when one option isn't even showing whole frames. overwriting a frame mid-transmission is obviously faster than waiting for it to finish being displayed. Yes the difference is remarkable, and I had high hopes to start with (and I've played on tons of demos even beforehand) and was still blown away. I used to make frame time graphs that plot every frame to diagnose differences I'd see between cards despite fps saying "90" or whatever and without sync its such a mess, its just so fast you only really see true tearing but you definitely subconsciously can tell when poo poo is stuttering I mean at a million fps and if I were actually good enough to use every frame I understand turning it off but I cant and *sync is just so pleasant

Jesus it just happened to me. I was sitting here pondering what to do about my mining pc. Outside of the GPU, its paid itself off already. The 1080 in it was a used card I had in my main PC which cost me exactly $400. Now, resale of that today would let me break even on that card + maybe $50 or so all said and done. Considering I used it for 5 months, thats a big win overall, and the plan always ways to get a 1080ti and sell off the 1080 anyway and this would put me firmly on top of everything. Mining is "crashing" relative to the craze it was and I don't see it returning to that which would affect near term resale prices probably, but my biggest concern are the Volta rumors in September. Even discounting any kind of over supplied used market thats going to rear end blast its value. So the intelligent thing would be to cut and run. There is no way around it. But I dont want to... im sitting here doing math months out in advance speculating at $2 a day, $1.50 a day, $1.00 a day, how long would it be before I make enough money to justify not selling today (its a lot of days). But I think I'm gonna do just that. I'm a slave to this now. Tell my family I gave it my best try but I have succumbed to the buttcoin

Nybble posted:Has anyone had any luck selling cards through Amazon? I've done that for other products without issue, but wondering if there's anything I should know before listing it. Amazon is clamping down on that bigtime with what appears to be pressure from manufacturers to stop 3rd party sales. I can only assume this is because of a high volume of complaints and bullshit scams. But if you've already got a seller account on Amazon, I'd definitely try the Amazon route. Just undercut the lowest price and watch it sell in an hour. If the manufacturer doesn't want you to sell you will be told upfront you need a letter of distribution from the manufacturer

Im morr invested than many here in that I built a computer for it, but I built a computer for $86 to see if I could. If I was taking this serious, like taxable income serious, Id have bought real equipment and a bunch of gpus the first moment I could because there would have been a very real chance of turning actual income levels of profit. Id worry about taxes then. Besides, somebody that goes around picking up change off the ground everyday meets those criteria too anyway.
