Getting a maximum of 104-107 hashrate on Titan X's. #515

Closed DuquetteRoxx closed 6 years ago

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

Specs: i7 5930K 128GB DDR4 @ 4200MHZ (2) GTX Titan X (SLI off) Windows 10 No overclocks on CPU, or GPU. Standard XMP overclock on the RAM.

Have tried every combination of threads and blocks, all of which produce 104 to 107 rate.

Have tried many values of bfactor. (nothing lower than 7 works, and 12 makes my system usable) All bsleep values between 5-100 seem to work.

nvidia txt wtf

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

I have also tried setting affinity to CPU and all sync modes.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

please delete the file nvidia.txt start the miner and post the file. Please copy&past the text instead of posting screenshots

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

If I delete the file and start the miner, it disables back-end nvidia.

There is nothing in nvidia.txt now, just the template.

/*
 * GPU configuration. You should play around with threads and blocks as the fastest settings will vary.
 * index         - GPU index number usually starts from 0.
 * threads       - Number of GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads).
 * blocks        - Number of GPU blocks (nothing to do with CPU threads).
 * bfactor       - Enables running the Cryptonight kernel in smaller pieces.
 *                 Increase if you want to reduce GPU lag. Recommended setting on GUI systems - 8
 * bsleep        - Insert a delay of X microseconds between kernel launches.
 *                 Increase if you want to reduce GPU lag. Recommended setting on GUI systems - 100
 * affine_to_cpu - This will affine the thread to a CPU. This can make a GPU miner play along nicer with a CPU miner.

 *     },
 * ],

It also looks like they will only hash for a second or two, and then stop, repeatedly.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

In that case please remove the file nvidia.txt gain start the miner and post all output from the terminal.

Whats your CFG file content for nvidia after you have deleted empty CFG and restarted miner - did it create a new CFG file? if it did whats in it?

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

Yes when I run it after deleting the nvidia config, it creates a new nvidia.txt but it just has the “template” inside it, no actual values set.

m03e5 commented 6 years ago

It has 2 gpu's on board right? Perhaps in this case it will be necessary to manually play with CFG. Maybe someone has any other titans CFG to compare with... have you tried any other miners with it, were they successful? if yes, then its possible to look in to configs generated by those miners and try applying it p.s. what driver you are using for your titan?

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

I'll bet this is the problem.. hmmm

sergneo commented 6 years ago

The NVIDIA driver is the latest? 388.59 WHQL

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

Yup. Tried deleting all previous versions/clean install and all that.

sergneo commented 6 years ago

Looks like XMR-stak is unable to determine your GPU, this is a bug

DuquetteRoxx commented 6 years ago

Are there any values I can enter to force it to acknowledge the cards?

sergneo commented 6 years ago

Leave only one GPU in the system and repeat all over again.

luncht1me commented 6 years ago

My friend is having a similar issue with his Titan X. Gave him your advice sergneo, will let you know what happens.

alexnode commented 6 years ago

I have the same problem ... Titan X the old one (maxwell) and it is not being detected automatically ...
