GPU seems to be very ineffective

HiDevin

@nixxda Ah bc i thought u were getting all from gpu and something else from cpu :p

haitch

@jervis I5's, I7's, Xeons, Opterons, a MacPro and a whole bunch of GPU's ....

@haitch

GPU's are cooler in Zcash. running at 63deg C here. Eth is the heater.

HiDevin

@nixxda wouldn't cpus be the most " important " in Zcash mining rn? or they just haven't improved the software yet :p

@jervis
my GTX 970 is running at 47°C watercooled.... but only at 64% TDP which i guess is what you call ineffective!
CPU is 90°C!!

jervis

@nixxda 90? That should have already caused a crash on my system. :( are we baking something inside your rig? XD

HiDevin

@jervis I run 90 when i mine eth + decred at the same time lol

nixxda

@HiDevin
yes miner software. or actually the driver adaption (or something)

jervis

@HiDevin hmmm. GPUs run 75 max in eth + decred for us XD

HiDevin

@jervis I think there's something wrong here for me :p ( I use claymore's Miner ) im getting around 89-90 C avg.

jervis

@HiDevin i think you should undervolt your gpus and downclock them.

"burn *****************,burn!!)
if it stays up for a while I can buy some more CPU's!

haitch

@HiDevin My Quad GTX960 rig has the cards at between 55C and 70C

HiDevin

@jervis they arent oc

my Bot says "Invalid Range" when I try to trade ZEC!-(

HiDevin

@nixxda https://gyazo.com/fb31e309c4af84384cb904b04e33bb2b both my cpu and gpu combined i hit 27 sols :p
