69 degrees is the temp.  I also checked for throttling, but it isn't.  On the surface everything looks good and similar except for the stark contrast in TDP (67% vs 92%)

***UPDATE*** So I fiddled with all sorts of things. No change.  But I recall reading once that Nicehash suggests creating a very large Virtual memory page file.  Not sure why, and I never had an issue with 3 GTX1060s and 2 GTX 1050s.  But when I created a huge 24GB page file suddenly my hash rate jumped up to 390 sols/s.  (BTW ONLY the algorithms equihash and DaggerHashimodo were impacted all others were expected for a 1070)

So Why Nicehash needed so much extra virt mem for a 1070 is unknown to me.  Why low virt mem only impacted DaggerHashimodo and equihash is even more perplexing. I am only thankful I remembered something about that and tried it.

Thank you to everybody that replied with suggestions!
