HELP!

My wires are overheated!

Using 430.86 Nvidia drivers with 14.6 Clay and -powlim -30 option I've got "gpu 0 nvidia powlim set failed" message in the log file. Energy consumption is above 150 watts (asus 1078).

With previous drivers version it was about 109-115 watts. WTF?

If you use Afterburner, set power target to 70% to help with load. All of my NVIDIA rigs are set to 70% and run fine.

If the wires are hot it may mean you have a bad riser/power connector. Consider replacing them if the power target doesn't solve your problem.
