I know the earning reduced because of btc price but I see many people uses nicehash or mining pool hub with nvidia cards.i wonder do you always set the miner  to auto switch  and leave it as is or you guys choose what to mine manually ?Also is it possible to auto switch using smos ?

I know you can use algo switching with SMOS, I use it only on Equihash Algo with smos.

Re: my 1070 struggles now to make $2 a day, a 1080ti barely makes $4 a day

The problem is you are cashing out and not holding till market value comes up. Hold and that 2 dollars today 30 days from now maybe worth 6 dollars. Mining is not a get rich quick unless you hit the jackpot mining a coin with no value that goes to the moon. Just my 2 cents.

Exactly ... And it is moronic to track daily in fiat value even if you are not cashing out daily.  The exchange rate to fiat is constantly changing.

Some people cash out frequently to convert to fiat to pay their electric bills.....  I cash out 3-4 times per month just for that reason.  Or once per month if the prices are good.

Well I can understand that but you can't complain if you cash out you have to live with that choice. Everyones circumstance is different but in the end we all have to be satisfied in our choices in the end.

I have been mining on MPH for past month but mainly just Zclassic. Payouts where getting lower over past week but Network difficulty and Network hash rate almost doubled so I just switched over to multi mine just equihash algo. 6 1060 cards 1 1080 and 3 old rx270 cards since Sunday making just shy of 18 dollars a day but whole market is down. Will watch the post to see what others say.

Not sure if it will help but put Bios back to default and just change the PCIe to gen 2. Also is thumb drive 3.0 usb and is it plugged into a 3.0 usb slot.

 I'm looking for a good starting point to overclock. I have searched but not finding much except 1080ti overclock settings so if you can help or point me in the right direction would greatly appreciate it.

Zotac 1080 with Micron mem.

Current settings

Running windows / dstm 5.7
afterburner settings as follows

power 80
core 190
mem 500

510 sols @ 4.3 sol/w

Should I leave it or can it do better.

Rig has still been unstable as 1 card still dropping off after awhile. Changed core/mem settings nothing changed. So now I set pcie to gen 2 from auto and getting highest sols ever on rig average of 1800. I don't see anything in Bios for 4g encode but maybe the PCIe in gen 2 mode will fix issue.

I totally agree treanski. Thats why I tested them today so I can set overclocks accordingly to keep rig stable so I don't have to check on it all the time. And to know exactly what I have as well.

Had some time today to test each card. My bad luck I was able to buy 5 out of the six in one batch and they are all Micron Memory and last one you guessed it is Hynix. So now I will clock them and test to see if I can get rid of having any invalids. I will try to find the answer if core on Micron is ok at 100 also.

I switched out the riser that seems to have stabilized the rig " keeping fingers crossed'. About 10 Sols difference now just need to get the invalid shares gone. Will try lowering the clock/mem speeds to see if that solves that issue. I did make a windows drive I can find out exact mem cards have with that but Ive seen videos with exact same card using Samsung unless manufacture uses whatever is on hand that it would be different.

New Rig Troubleshooting

New to the Forum and getting back into mining after I stopped years ago. I even have some Asic cube miners sitting in my basement holding some papers down. I have just built a new rig and having some issues.

Build Specs

SMOS Using DSTM but have tried EWBF also same results just lower Sols
Gigabyte Z270P-D3
g4400 processor
4gb ram
Zotac 1060 6gb AMP = 6 GPUS
1 GPU on MB rest are on risers.
EVGA 850 Platinum power supply
No monitor connected

Mother Board Bios Updated to newest Version.

Been Mining for a week trying to stabilize rig. Mining only Equihash algos.

Issues I'm having.

GPU 5 always has 30 Sols less than all other cards. Sometimes It Changes to another card and GPU5 will be fine.
Card will drop off after several hours still running but not mining.
Also having some invalid shares "been dropped from pool twice cause of it I believe"  1 to 2 % is highest I ever see.


I have reduced Overclock to the following but still not resolving issue of invalid shares.

Overclock at this time is set to following.
70 Core
500  Mem
Power 80
Hottest Card is at 53c so not a heat issue.

Average 1725 Sol / 3.65w at the moment.

Hope I stated things clear enough for some suggestions.

Thank You in advance to anyone willing to give there input.
