i left the nvidia config default, even tried 5 threads 5 blocks and 12 bfactor and 100 bsleep, nothing helps..

Nvidia config file:

"gpu_threads_conf" : [ // gpu: GeForce GTX 1060 3GB architecture: 61 // memory: 2906/3072 MiB // smx: 9 { "index" : 0, "threads" : 34, "blocks" : 27, "bfactor" : 6, "bsleep" : 25, "affine_to_cpu" : false, "sync_mode" : 3, }, // gpu: GeForce GTX 1060 3GB architecture: 61 // memory: 2916/3072 MiB // smx: 9 { "index" : 1, "threads" : 34, "blocks" : 27, "bfactor" : 6, "bsleep" : 25, "affine_to_cpu" : false, "sync_mode" : 3, }, // gpu: GeForce GTX 750 Ti architecture: 50 // memory: 1954/2048 MiB // smx: 5 { "index" : 2, "threads" : 5, "blocks" : 5, "bfactor" : 8, "bsleep" : 25, "affine_to_cpu" : false, "sync_mode" : 3, },

],

Running Windows 7, Cuda 9 and latest Nvidia drivers.

reduce the number of threads for the third gpu

[DRiccardi92]

lower than 5 threads? It even happens with 1 thread. Could this be a driver problem? I installed the Nvidia driver, then plugged the third card in and it was installed by windows. im just scared if i do a DDU and fresh install that i mess everything up.

[DRiccardi92]

Okay, fixed it. Now it works, was a driver issue. Fixed it by First pluggin one card in, reboot, next card, reboot, etc.

Now im happy hashing with 1460 H/s :)

For all who still have that problem: Never use WLAN, or never use a wifi dongle thats near your gpus. Since im using ethernet cable, problems gone. :D

Hi DRiccardi92,

I'm getting the below error - [CUDA] Error gpu 0: <C:/xmr-stak/xmr-stak-2.4.5/xmrstak/backend/nvidia/nvcc_code/cuda_extra.cu>:381

You mentioned that it was a driver issue, can you please explain what exactly driver issue was?

I'm using 1080Ti and below is my config file -

"gpu_threads_conf" : [ // gpu: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti architecture: 61 // memory: 9335/11264 MiB // smx: 28 { "index" : 0, "threads" : 54, "blocks" : 84, "bfactor" : 6, "bsleep" : 25, "affine_to_cpu" : false, "sync_mode" : 3, },

Appreciate your help!
