Hi guys,

GTX 1070 overclocking: contrary to the opinions I read around for Equihash overclocking, I just discovered that keeping the core clock at factory (or even -5Mhz) and aggressively  overclocking the memory (+650MHz) increased my rate from 440 Sols/s to 470 Sols/s

My card: MSI GTX1070 Gaming X 8Gb, -5/650 180W card, 260W total PC power measured at the wall (i7 2600K with 8GB RAM), miner EWBF 0.3.4b, Win10 64bit

That is too much power in my opinion. That card can do 440 Sol/s at +150 core (running about 1780-1822 MHz) and VRAM running at 8400 (there's really no need to push it more). And this at 55% power limit, using 120W. 30 extra Sol/s for 60W is just a waste of power.
