[Ethereum] How to overclock 8 * NVIDIA 1080 8 GB GPU with Claymore on ethOS or Windows 10

claymorenvidiawindows

Do any Ethereum miners have experience overclocking Nvidia 1080 8 GB GPU’s using Claymore on Windows 10? According to multiple conversations I’ve had today with experienced miners, even those utilizing liquid-coolers, it’s apparently easier said than done when compared to using Radeon 8 GB 580’s with Claymore on Windows 10.

I’ve attached my .bat file convention within the below markdown. I’d sincerely appreciate any guidance since this is my first day officially mining Ethereum! I’m throwing in the towel tonight and using ethOS on my next build with 8 Radeon 580 GPUs- from what I gather, the Linux .conf file convention should be much easier to modify for overclocking.

setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

FYI, I’m currently averaging 272 Mh/s collectively and about 21.2 per GPU; please see below-screenshot.hash-rate freqs

Alternatively, I successfully overclocked the Asus Nvidia 1080 8 GB GPUs on a (Windows 10 * msi Afterburner) * (Claymore + nanopool) by achieving a hash-rate >= 191.Mh/s with the below params detailed in the screenshot.

  • Core Voltage: 0%
  • Power Limit: 100%
  • Core Clock (MHz): 144
  • Memory Clock: 456
  • Fan Speed: Auto
