Hi, i now testing compare with dstm, and it seems this miner is a few percent faster like others said. But on some rigs i have problem, that some GPUs are not load at full.

example, rig with 3x1070 with dstm all GPUs are on 99-100%, but with Bminer, only GPU 0 and 2 are on this. GPU1 is only 94% load
On rig with 4x1070 GPU 0,1 and 3 at full load, but GPU2 again only 94%

Like i said, with dstm or ewbf are all gpus at full load, no other change.

p.s. on 1070ti... this is awesome, where i had 480 with dstm, with bminer i have 500sols, awesome. But again, on rig with 4x1070ti+2x1060 I have problem, that some gpus are not at full load and all rig is slower compare with dstm wgich is ok.

I have no idea where can be problem.

My guess is that the temperature might be too high --- can you please share some screenshots of the UI and the results of nvidia-smi?

I dont think there is a problem with temperature, because other miner havent this problem with same settings, here si screen.

and rig with 3x1070ti + 1x1070 + 2x1060 3GB

Bminer http://ibb.co/khbMsG



Same problem with 3 1080ti

First GPU says 99% Utilization, other only 90%

May I know which versions of Windows are you using?

There are some combinations of driver versions and Windows 10 that will slow down the GPU commands. It is not happening on every configuration but I'm trying to mitigate the issue.

The Linux version does not have this problem.
