How exactly do I overclock with nvOC? Regardless of what I change in the config (core / memory), the clocks never change.

For instance, I have 12gpu's running, target one GPU that I want to modify, enable "Individual Clocks" and "Individual Powerlimits", make my change to both core and memory, but the one specific card never changes in when I go to look at the current specs in the nVidia X Server settings. Clock and memory always stays the same.

I've enabled and disabled Powermiser, and dont see any other config that I can change to modify my gpu. Matter of fact, i've tried changing it on all my cards, nothing changes.

Powerlimiting does work just fine however.

Any input would be appreciated.

(I'm using v0019-1.4 + community patch)

Thanks!

So, here are my questions on Overclocking as I cant figure it out. I replied earlier that I saw Fullzero's post on the very first page, tried what he suggested with no luck. I'm currently mining my rig with stock settings, coming from Windows recently. My xorg detect fails and reboot, so I've commented it out in order to mine with stock settings. Still trying to educate myself on exactly xorgs function.

Here are my questions:

(There are 358 pages to read through! ... and currently at work. Cheesy

)

1. Do I have to turn off the onboard video and boot via PCIEXPRESS? I'm thinking I wont be able to OC this card from what i'm reading??
2. If so, then does that mean I'll need to plug my monitor into one of the cards on the rig? And if that is the case, will I be able to use the Ubuntu GUI desktop or will I have to go headless?
3. Once that is done, xorg should work, correct? I assume that i'll need to do what Fullzero suggested on the first page at this point.
4. Is there anything else that needs to be done to get OC working?

Thanks,

Disable the onboard (integrated) video in the bios.
Connect the monitor to the GPU that is connected to the first x16 PCIe slot (the first long slot closest to the CPU).
Xorg should work now.
Edit 1bash that's located in your home directory (do not edit the one that's located in the small 9MB fat partition). Open the file explorer nautilus (icon with folder sign), it will open in your home directory where you will find 1bash. Edit this file. Restart.

Gracias!

So before I left for work this morning, I did exactly this. I disabled the onboard, plugged my monitor into the primary x16 slotted card, powered it up but the display was very, very slow. It was drawing the screen as a very low rate and waited for a while but never came up to the desktop. Maybe I wasn't patient enough. That slot in the BIOS was set to AUTO, but it can be changed to GEN 1/2/ or 3.

I'm using the H110 board.

Would your recommendation mean that my display would be a bit laggy? I'm good with that, but it was super-duper-pooper-scooper slow and didn't feel like waiting.

Run this command and reboot

Code:

sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=28 --allow-empty-initial-configuration

See how it goes after reboot

I did the above, but still had problems with xorg trying to start. So...

I reimaged my drive
Disabled the onboard video
Turned the power off and plugged in all my cards in the order I wanted. Plugged a monitor straight to the pcie x16 slot
Powered it back on
Booted up off my newly imaged drive

... and xorg started fine this time.

Nothing else done. Applied the community patch and noticed that the formatting in 1bash was much cleaner and easier to read. And, it's now overclocking!

I went from 160watts per @ around 500 sols/s to 120 watts around 515 sols/s. At the moment I bumped it up to 160 watts per card and its giving me around 540-550 sols/s.

Woot, woot!

Thank you!
