Hi guys I am very happy with the stability of my rig but I am still trying to get my head around the overclocking.
I dont seem to get much difference between the following combos
Cc 100 mem 100
Cc 100 mem 600
CC 100 mem 1100
Cc -100 mem 1100
CC -200 mem 1100
They all yeild around 24.5 MHs on ETH and 570 MHs in SC
Sometimes I get some nice results which I cant get again. For example I tried CC -50 and mem 1100 and I had 27 ETH and 570 SC
I tried some other settings then decided -50 and 1100 was the winner only to find this time I get my normal 25 ETH results. After writing down 50 different combinations and re doing them 3x each I am convinced they all do the same thing.
If I use these cards in windows I can hit 28 ETH and 530 SC with MSI after burner.
I am using ASUS GTX 1070 Turbos which are lower end 1070s unfortunately. ( Im not expecting founders edition results! )
I did have the one video card setup issue which caused my xorg to default but this is now fixed. ( I can see all card limits set when terminal opens and I can see the settings on the Nvidia server )
Im thinking maybe my process is wrong or am I simply wanting too much out of the cards?
To try new settings I close terminal, edit onebash, save onebash, close onebash and open terminal. ( do I need yo reatart nvOC at the power? )
I write down the first 10 results and take the average.
With MSI afterburner when I move the sliders I see some big changes but with nvOC the numbers change by small increments and if I do get a big jump I cant seem to re produce it with identical settings at a future date.
If my process is wrong or if my results are about right in Linux I would aporeciate the feedback, thanks!
