Welp, that didn't work... Exactly 1 hour after restarting at a lower o/c the hashrate dropped to ~1150 (instead of ~1170).

I've just started poking around in event viewer but haven't found anything yet on driver crashes. Not sure where to look, actually, but I'll figure it out eventually... I'm sure.

EDIT - actually, backing off the o/c may, indeed, have worked. I decided to reboot the machine and try +125/+300 again and it has been running fairly steady at 1220 kH/s for 6 hours now. I never did find the gpu driver crash in the logs, but that isn't saying much.


If that didn't do the trick, you could try the opposite, i.e. reapplying o/c every few minutes.
Using nvidiainspector, I have a little script that runs in the background. It's got a 10min timer loop, and reapplies overclocks everytime it restarts. This way, if one card drops off for whatever reason, this both helps reviving it and makes sure overclocks are always current.

Happy to share it later tonight if you're interested.

I don't want to jinx myself here, but hashrate has been holding steady at 1220 for over 24 hours now, and the pool mostly agrees based on the coins earned vs. average difficulty for the past 24 hours.

So I don't think I'll need your script, but I am interested in seeing it because it sounds really useful and I don't have much experience with powershell scripting (I do have some remnant knowledge of optimizing config.sys and autoexec.bat, however... which probably gives away my age...  Tongue )
