    So I have one 1070 ming well 437sol/s.  How does everyone power SIX 1070 that require both a 6pin and 8pin power.  My EVGA 1200w only comes with two of those cables.  I tried to only plug in the 8pin and it wouldn't boot. Said plug in 6pin power on the screen.

    Thanks,

    You could try the Rosewill HERCULES-1600S with 16 x 6+2-Pin Smiley

    Thanks,

    Most people either use a server PSU, or use 2 PSU's with an Add2PSU to start them both.

    Hi, I tried to run EWBF's miner in my Linux box which is running a modified version of Slackware 14.2. I'm a total Linux noob but I managed to compile and install Nvidia kernel and drivers 375.39. Nvidia-smi was showing my card (GTX 1070) and correct driver version. I launched EWBF's miner and my power supply blew up right after the line (http://imgur.com/a/yeopU):

    Code:
    CUDA: Device: 0 Selected solver: 0

    PSU was a Seasonic G-450. 450W should be enough for a single 1070 and a few idle HDD. I replaced the PSU with another 450W unit, removed the GTX 1070 and the computer booted normally.

    Now before I try again with the new PSU, my question is: is it just bad luck I blew my PSU the moment I launched the miner, or did I miss something important?

    hi i just bought a 1060 3gb i just wrote this at my config

    miner --server zec.suprnova.cc --user vince232.1 --pass 1234 --port 2142

    right now im getting 270 sol/s per card @120w per card

    is there like a bios mod or can i undervolt it just like the rx cards to get lower power and better hashrate?

    I don't know about bios mods but you can reduce power draw and overclock easily with MSI Afterburner.

    Nope. I don't get it. On CMD ~320Sol/s and on pool its say average hashrate is ~220 on flypool and from moment to moment on suprnova i have 400-500, wtf? How long do you guys wait for 0.01zec to mine with 1 card?

    Hello All,

    Just thought I'd Share some of my hashrates using EWBF's miner (I have some older hardware as well as some newer)[also as a side note I dont currently pay for electricity {included in rent} so that's partially why I run old cards]

    Ran to test:
    Galaxy Geforce 570 1280mb - 15-20sol/s (stock settings)  Tongue

    Currently Running:

    PNY Geforce 680 2Gb - 60-70 sol/s (about 95% power) {1228mhz core, 6008mhz ram}
    2x Zotac Geforce 970 4Gb - 260-285 sol/s each (165w-170w each, ~1.6-1.7 sol/w [@110% power]) {1404mhz core, 7000mhz ram}
    Zotac Geforce 1060 Mini 6Gb - 300-335 sol/s (110w-125w, ~2.5-2.6 sol/w [@101% power] {2012mhz core, 9000mhz ram}  Cool

    Hello Kejvu,

    if you're mining at 320sol/s you should make about 0.018 - 0.02 zec a day, at least according to this calculator:

    Dear EWBF_,

    I've been trying to get your lovable Zec miner 0.3.3b Windows 64-bit version to work with the Radix42 (https://github.com/radix42) Windows port of Zcashd version 1.0.8-1 (running it as zcashd -daemon).

    My zcash.conf (in %appdata%\Zcash)
    Code:
    addnode=mainnet.z.cash
    rpcuser=aaxa
    rpcpassword=axaa
    rpcport=8232

    I'm running miner as:
    Code:
    miner --server localhost --port 8232 --user aaxa --pass axaa --pec

    Result:
    Code:
    +-------------------------------------------------+
    |         EWBF's Zcash CUDA miner. 0.3.3b         |
    +-------------------------------------------------+
    INFO: Server: localhost:8232
    INFO: Solver Auto.
    INFO: Devices: All.
    INFO: Temperature limit: 90
    INFO: Api: Disabled
    ---------------------------------------------------
    ERROR: Cannot connect to the server. 7

    Debugging:
    • I have a 100% synched blockchain and can connect to Zcashd with the Zcash Desktop GUI wallet 0.69 Beta from https://github.com/vaklinov/zcash-swing-wallet-ui/blob/master/docs/Readme-Windows.md
    • I can telnet to port 8232 on localhost (from a Linux VM), so I know something is responding there
    • I can mine on pools such as Luckpool with "miner --server luckpool.org --port 3357 --user t<address>.m1  --pass x --pec
    • I can mine with the local Zcashd and CPUs, but as you can figure this is not the method I want to use

    Unless I'm doing something wrong here, please enable solo mining for your miner. I'm more than happy to e.g. have it connect to a pool for the devfees.

    Hello Kejvu,

    Currently I am mining to Slushpool.com, at present time the pool is only a couple hundred kh/s (250kh/s-400kh/s average, historically a BTC pool, they only started mining zec this year and only started to see decent {+100Kh/s} speeds in late April 2017)

    I just recently fired up a rig of 1070s using this program, and the miner is great. I am just having trouble getting my cards to hash over 400sol/s. Changing the memory clock has very little/no effect on speed. The best I can do right now is ~390 with TDP set at 80%, but I've read others here achieving over 450  Huh

    Does anyone have any insight? My nvidia mining experience is pretty much nil.

    I can't imagine some1 get less then 430 even on stock 1070.
    What cards do u using?
    I have Gigabyte windforce OC and msi armor, 5 with micron and 1 with Samsung memory. Cores +80, mem + 550 and that is results

     ZEC is not particularly impressed with memory speed - it wants raw CPU quite a bit more, so bump core clocks up and memory clocks flat or DOWN a little for best results IME.

     It also depends a LOT on the specific card model, especially when you look at cards like my Gigabytes that have a FACTORY TDP of 180 watts (vs 154 or 155 for "1070 standard") and a high factory overclock.

     TDP as a percentage is MEANINGLESS unless you specify the actual card.

    This why MSI uses percent in afterburner instead of actual wattage.

    I agree that:

    TDP as a percentage is MEANINGLESS unless you specify the actual card.
    https://github.com/hartmanm How difficulty adjustment works: Every 2016 blocks, the Network adjusts the current difficulty to estimated difficulty in an attempt to keep the block generation time at 10 minutes or 600 seconds. Thus the Network re-targets the difficulty at a total difficulty time of:  2016 blocks * 10 minutes per block = 20160 minutes 60 minutes = 336 hours 24 hours = 14 days. When the Network hashrate is increasing; a difficulty ( 2016 blocks ) should take less than 14 days.  How much less can be estimated by comparing the % Network hashrate growth + what the Network hashrate was at the beginning of the difficulty ( 2016 blocks ) against what the Network hashrate was at the beginning of the difficulty ( 2016 blocks ).  This is only an estimate because you cannot account for "luck"; but you can calculate reasonably well using explicitly delimited stochastic ranges. The easy way to think about this is to look at this graph and see how close to 0 the current data points are on its y axis.  If the blue line is above 0 the difficulty ( 2016 ) blocks should take less than 14 days; if it is below it should take more. http://bitcoin.sipa.be/growth-10k.png

    I just recently fired up a rig of 1070s using this program, and the miner is great. I am just having trouble getting my cards to hash over 400sol/s. Changing the memory clock has very little/no effect on speed. The best I can do right now is ~390 with TDP set at 80%, but I've read others here achieving over 450  Huh

    Does anyone have any insight? My nvidia mining experience is pretty much nil.

    I can't imagine some1 get less then 430 even on stock 1070.
    What cards do u using?
    I have Gigabyte windforce OC and msi armor, 5 with micron and 1 with Samsung memory. Cores +80, mem + 550 and that is results

    The cards are all Zotac Minis with Micron Memory. Right now I'm running them at +75% voltage, 80% TDP, +200 core, -250 mem and getting about 385. If I push the mem a lot, I can squeeze out ~395, With TDP set to 100%, The highest I can get is ~415.

    I'm running win10, and using afterburner to clock, and GPU-Z to verify the clocks.

    Default clocks on Zotac 1070s are lower than most; so you want to use a positive memory clock OC.  Start with +450 then walk up to +900 if they can handle it.

    I got the memory clock as high as +700 before I started to have issues. The difference between -200 and +700 was only about 10sol/s at best, so I just left it low to lower power draw.

    My SeaHawk X w/ Micron running at 9.6 Ghz yields 525 Sols @ 170 watts.
