Hello guys,
I have a question who uses p106-100 gpu.
Here's my settings:
95W
Core: 100
Mem: 1400
And I'm getting 290~298sols.
Now when I tried to lower my power limit to 75W. The card still draws 90W.
Nvidia-shows that it has a power limit of 75W but still consumes 90W. Does anyone had this issue?
Power limit is a percentage based on the card's TDP (thermal design power) which for a p106-100 is 120W. So in your case power limit @ 75% of 120W is 90W.
I doubt that, percentage is in windows but where as in Linux(nvOC), what you enter is the watt, If i enter 76 as my POWER_LIMIT then it stays on that. Even I check it on 'nvidia-smi' command.
I would suggest to check it first using
nvidia-smi
after it started mining for a while and also make a note what is the POWER_LIMIT values when 'Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL' tab has started.
What I'm trying to say is; in simple terms there was an issue with the power limit and clock's variables (has been fixed in v0019-1.1), even you set some power limit normally, it might be pulling it from individual power limits. Please check.
