Hi everyone, I have a quick question about the globalmem / mem parameter in the EthOS local.conf file. I'm running an EVGA GTX 1070. Reading online here and elsewhere I consistently see people setting the globalmem / mem parameter in the local.conf file to anywhere from 4200 up to 4600. My question is what does this value actually represent? I'm assuming Mhz, but that still doesn't make sense. The factory memory frequency on this card is 8000Mhz. At first glance it would look like you're underclocking the memory by almost 50% by setting it to the low 4000's but obviously that can't be the case... While I'm sure it would run fine in the low 4000's for that value, I'm one of those "retentive" people that needs to clearly understand what the modified value represents compared to stock value so I know exactly what is being done.



Thanks,
