Re: [ANN] BitcoinPoW (BTCW) - Bitcoin using PoW/PoT to eliminate mining pools

A wallet will mine when it has mature coins and at least 1 transaction and at least connected to 4 other nodes. However you want to get transactions into a wallet is up the user. There is a Python script in the white paper, the community has made a Nodejs version that sends txs, another dev is working on another approach. You can have many wallets with the GUI, but only one of them can be active at any given time. This means the miner will mine using the active selected wallet. Easiest approach is to use 2 GUI wallets. Send txs from one wallet to the receiving wallet.

There is much mining talk on Telegram, come join the chat and ask the community questions.

That's interesting, because I'm just testing this just now, and the "inactive" wallet found a block. Maybe just a gui bug?

Would creating a second wallet to mine in the same GUI instance work? Would both mine at the same time? That way we can save resources as opposed to multiple gui instances opened at the same time

Yes, it is a bit of work to setup mining. The community is growing and a developer is working on automating some of the steps to deploy a miner that is ready to mine using PoW/PoT. It will take some time.

Hi, so I just mined a block on my mining wallet.

How do I send this mined block to another wallet for mining that will not reset all my transactions? (As you mentioned in the Telegram chat)

GPU setup:

4x Nvidia 3060 TI FE
1x EVGA 3060 TI FTW3 ULTRA (NON-LHR)

GPU Overclock Settings:

Memory - +1050 (8,050 total)
Core - -200
Power Limit - 71%
Fan Speed - 70%

With the updated TBM v1.11 and new --xintensity recommended setting (--xintensity 224), I am getting 64+ MH per card (Total 322.14 MH) and with 0 stales/rejects so far (93+ mins running).

Is it safe to assume that it is working as intended?

Hey man, can you open your private messages for newbie? I want to send a private message regarding your settings. Thanks

Re: NVIDIA is cutting the 3060's Hash Rate in Half & NEW Mining specific GPU's

From Videocardz:
"Today NVIDIA announced that GeForce RTX 3060 drivers will be able to detect if the user is mining cryptocurrency. This will automatically limit the performance by 50%, which will basically render mining on this card unprofitable. This is exactly what happened to the graphics card that was tested by CryptoLeo.

Just a minute or two after starting, the hash rate has dropped from 41.5 MH/s to 26-24 MH/s. Since the author of the video has no drivers for this card, this would suggest that the anti-mining algorithm is not present in the software, but rather implemented in the BIOS itself.

The RTX 3060 is the first graphics card that will feature this solution to detect mining. In the next few weeks, we should be seeing more news on the Crypto Mining Processor HX series that NVIDIA announced today."

Gaming X Trio stock bios has some memory limitation as said by other users.

But it doesn't throttle because of overheating, it's throttling because of some bios limitation.

That's why when flashing Suprim X bios, it's fixed, as evidenced by Seph213... We also talked about this earlier in this thread.

Yeah, just updated to HWINFO 6.42. It does indeed show memory temperatures. Just under GPU Core temp. But only for GDDR6X. It doesn't show GDDR6 temps, maybe not necessary as it doesn't run hot?

Here's mine at 28c ambient:
Asus TUF - 98c
MSI Ventus - 108c (near throttling)
Zotac AMP Holo - 96c
Gainward Phoenix - 86c
Palit GamingPro - 88c

All at +1000 memory except Palit at +700. The Asus, MSI and Zotac are deshrouded, and I have zip tied 120mm/140mm fans.
Surprisingly, the cheapest 3080s on my rig perform the best, and they're not deshrouded. The more expensive brands perform worse, even though they are deshrouded with high quality fans!

Just noticed if I set the fans to auto on my Zotac, at 32c ambient fans went straight up to 100%. Definitely on the throttling side. I deshrouded it and zip tied 2x 140mm fans and according to HWINFO, fans are at 75%. Went down from 100% to 75%. Big help. Let's see if this holds at 35c summer temps. Also checked pads for the Zotac Amp Holo is 2mm. Will replace the pads later if this still doesn't hold.

Yeah tried that atm i've a ryzen cpu heatsink at the top and it works somewhat, but i think ima try the thermal pad mod , just hope that the 2mm works fine.
How does this work? I mean how did you mount the heatsink?

My 3080’s are not thermal throttling but i did notice the backplate is super hot where the memory and vrams are located so i put a 120mm case fan on there .

Now its just warm to the touch not burning anymore .

Maybe try that and see if it fixes ur problem before u open ur card .
Can you please post pictures? Kinda interested how you did it

Zotac 3080 AMP HOLO started to throttle at 30c ambient.

If I keep it at 227w and core at 55c it is fine at 99mh/s. I don't think any of my 3080 can hold 35c+ ambients. Might be forced to limit to 210w and +800mem.

Since the first post needs confirmation about Zotac AMP HOLO, I wanted to share my experience.

I've been running my first 3080 for about one and half day in my server case which has very good cooling (5 intake, 5 exhaust fans, all Arctic F12 PWM, running at full speed).

OC settings: FAN 80%, PL 230W, CORE -200, Memory 2400. Ambient temperature around 20 C, Core Temp 56 C and that baby gives me 99,3 mh stable.

I'll keep you guys updated if I get it throttled after a week or so just like ventus cards.



Ventus cards throttle after days of being stable ?

I've read that from the discussion below. I'm afraid I will have to consider applying those sweet thermal pads from Grizzly one day.

https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/jxfoac/3080_thermal_throttling_thread/
Yeah, this is actually my thread. I also got the Holo. Runs 98-99mh/s at 227w. The way I got this card is a long story, but I got it for a reasonable price. Hopefully it doesn't throttle like the Ventus after a few weeks of mining. I also have a Ventus mining for 2 weeks now, still good. But I keep it <50c core. Let's see how long it holds.

I don't understand something to be honest; I mine for a few days at 95-96 MH (confirmed by the average on the pool), then all of the sudden I look and find that it's mining at 85-90, again with the pool average confirming that my values have dropped.

Strange thing is, I had GPU-Z open this whole time, there is no Temp throttling, the MSI Afterburner settings look good, so what gives?

I only mine ETH.

Also, what thickness did you guys use for the thermal pad on the memories? Is 1mm too much/little?
I take it you have a Ventus? What temps are you running it at?

My zotac 3080 goes to 718mV, but i'm not sure if this is the case for all 3080 - my other rtx cards have different minimum voltages.
FWIW i use awesomeminer to set the voltage. If it goes too low, the memory will drop to 5000mhz.

What hash are you getting now with your AMP HOLO?

Can you share you OC settings?

Fan speeds:
Memory overclock:
Power:
Temp:
Hashrate:

Thanks!

It's in my main pc so i can't oc as far, but here are my settings
fan speed: 60%
mem oc: +550
voltage: 718mV (225W)
temp: 58C
hashrate: 93

That's definitely throttling. It can't push past +550? Can you do +1000?

Found the solution to your problem...

Seems you need to update vbios of your Trio to bypass some kind of limitation by the current one.

Let me know what you get now if you did flash it. GL!

Thanks for that find . They flashed the evga bios on the trio x but i would try the suprim bios to keep it in the family . At least to try at first .

2 things tho .

1: i heard u lose warranty when u flash the bios . Say i was to flash back to the original bios would msi still know i flashed a diff bios at some point ?

2: do u know of any good guide to flash the bios ? I had found one but it didnt work .

I never flashed a gpu bios so its new territory for me .
[/quote]
1.) I also don't know never did it before too but as long as you followed instructions perfectly I think you should be good. If I get a reasonably priced 3080 Trio I will try myself. But looking at market conditions, it is highly unlikely until maybe Feb.
2.) https://www.overclock.net/threads/official-nvidia-rtx-3080-owners-club.1753932/
There's a guide in the middle of the first post.

GL!

Pull the back plate and fan the fuck out of it?

And void my warranty for 10mh ? Not very appealing . Right now i’m just pist i got the gaming trio cause prior to buying general consensus was that these cards were safe from issues .

Should of went for an evga ftw3 or the asus tuf . I’ve always seen good results from evga’s when it comes to OC for mining .
I'm curious.

So, to be clear:
1.) GPU-Z doesn't indicate it's thermal throttling.
2.) Setting the fan on auto --- what fan speeds do you get?
3.) Can't unlock voltage monitoring
4.) What MSI AB version are you running?
5.) Nvidia driver version?



1.) i’m using hwinfo and its not showing me thermal temp limit reach. It does show me power limit reached tho. Not sure how to see thermal throttling with gpu-z . I’ll look at it if u show me where to check

2.) fan is set to auto. Temp is at 45-48c with fan usually being around 60-70% . Just added some 120mm magnetic corsair fan so inside the case is very cool. Oh and i have a fan outside my case right in front of the card to push out any hot air.

3-4.) i downloaded the MSI AB 4.6.3 beta and was able to have the core volt enable but even with that maxed out the card still throttles .

5.) nvidia driver 460.89 the latest .

On CTXC using the newest version of Win10, my 2080 Ti can use the 11gb solver of your miner. But on CT32 and CT31, it defaulted back to 8gb solver, giving lower hashrates.

On the other hand, NBMiner is able to use 11gb solver on CT32 and CT31.

Possible to fix this?
Each miner has own implementation, our current implementation support 11gb solver only under linux and windows7.
But on CTXC, your miner can do 11gb solver on Win10. Is CT31 / CT32 vastly different?
