Dear friend,

Tell me please

I have mining via excavator v.1.4.4

How i can set in bat file or in config file - maximum temperature for gpus, for example 63 C.
If temp will reach 63 C on some kind of GPUs, than miner will slow or pause mining on this GPU

Thank you

Please forgive for bad english

You can use some third-party software (MSI Afterburner for example) and set temperature limit to 63 C or you can use excavator API:

https://github.com/nicehash/excavator/tree/master/api#-devicesettdp

With device.set.tdp method you can set TDP or thermal design power which controls the maximum amount of heat generated by the GPU.

{"id":1,"method":"device.set.tdp","params":["device_id","New TDP limit %"]}


Please explain: what can i set the parameter for TDP in %, for 63 C ?
What is formula for calculating TDP in % ?
My GPU ASUS 1080TI ROG-STRIX-O11G
