75% of usage on GPU only

[sergiorru]

Hi,

I noticed that using the default start parameters i can only active 75% of my GTX 1080 (with aprox. 350 Sols/s)

nheqminer-gpu -l equihash.usa.nicehash.com:3357 -u .GTX1080 -p p -cd 0

How can i use full (around 95%) of the GPU ?

I tried several combinations of -cb and -ct parameters but not worked.

I have exactly the same problem. eGPU gtx1080 with MacOs only get about 350 Sols/s.

my 980 ti get 300-350 Sols/s

This is very weird problem, i cannot figure out any solution. For now I mining with keccak algo with sgminer, this provide same speeds as windows/linux.

sgminer support for Nvidia GPU? teach me. I try it but it does not work. thanks

Sure mingan81,

You can download MacMiner, this comes with an embedded version of sgminer, and them you can mining using the command line bellow as a sample:

while true; do /Applications/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/sgminer/bin/sgminer -o stratum+tcp://keccak.usa.nicehash.com:3338 -u <BTC WALLET>.<Minner ID> -p p -k Keccak --device 0 -I 16 ; echo "sleep & restart"; sleep 30; done

But for now, this pool (NiceHash) is out of operation for Keccak, and I using this nheqminer despite the low performance of my GTX.

I hope any solution for this soon.

Best Regards!
