Is it possible to get 800 sols/s on 1080ti ?
I think this is the only way to outprofit skein on equihash algo, otherwise it is less profitable.


i would say its not possible currently to get 800 sol/s as i bought the biggest baddest card i could find with that exact plan and maxed out at 760 ;p
and the card draws fuck near 400 watts at that hash!
Needless to say, i run it closer to 700 sol/s at 225ish watts in normal mode

Skein is more profitable sure but for like 5 of us, anyone adding even 1/2 a farm would kill the profit preeeeety quick, we need moar Skein coins!


I didn't understand how to config that EWBF what not.

I'm using nemo miner  and sometimes I get 759 and sometimes 630 Sol/s

I have founder's edition card. I'm at Memory clock +300 and Gpu + 195 - Power +110% and temp at 90C max.

I hover around 2025 GPU clock and 77C all day.

Are you  overclocked more than I am or you getting those speeds at stock?

I don't even know how much money I can make or am making since it's posted above that Sol /= hash

my clocks are -40/ -400 for that hash, 80% power= 700 sol/s too much power draw if over 80% power limit otherwise imo.
i left the options default otherwise, tho i did play with --solver 2 , its more stable but slower in my tests (readme says same)
i wonder if theres some bottleneck somewhere or a heat spot thats causing that jump in your speed? i admit i am not a expert myself to really say more :/
maybe thats how nemos miners works tho too im only trying it now myself, hard to find the time i usually just leave my rigs alone ;p




Are you using Evga for overclock? and you kept it at 80% power? It won't accept the overclock speeds at 80% draw. I had to move to 90% draw then I can see speeds of 1900 mhz. Even for fan to run , it needs power.
I bought myPC for gaming lol , so if I don't keep it stable , it'll flash and reboot the card driver with stock settings. The founder edition Ti runs hotter than aftermarket cards though.

im using aftterburner, i havent never had an EVGA card myself so always just used afterburner ;p
ya thats why my clocks are so low, then you can have the lower power limit and it wont be chocking and throttling trying to keep the high clocks you set


Evga precision is like Afterburner ,my card itself is just nVidia Founders Edition- 1080ti - so the mining speed doesn't depend on clock speeds? how's that possible? If you are low at clock speeds and are getting 700 Sol, lol what sort of sorcery is this?
