I have had that issue and issues with win10 not recognizing the card even thought here are 5 other matching cards.It all depends on the motherboard. I had 3 of the same model motherboard and only 1 mobs would detect a 3060 card. You would think they all would.
I’m running 4 3060s in Windows with risers and HDMI dummy plugs. I’m getting about 45MH, when it’s not crashing. I’m still playing in Afterburner, but benchmarking is a bit of a challenge, as NiceHash keeps changing currencies on me. I was hoping for 50MH, but I guess I’m not going to see that with a riser.
I was looking for a 470.05 Linux driver, that’s how I ended up here BTW.
Thanks
Hello guys, today i bought gigabyte rtx 3060 aorus elite 12gb, and i cant get more than 25 mh/s.
I have the dev drivers and hdmi display, but still i cant get more. Dou you have any ideas why and what can i do to get full potencial?
Find your favorite ETH miner in Nicehash’s plugins/internals folders and just command-line it with a batch file.
I am using Gminer in exactly that manner, while letting my Threadripper mine XMR on Nicehash through their software and GUI.
Curious how anyone manages over 25Mh/s on ETH right now on 3060’s, but I don’t really care, as my rig is making money day in and day out. What is interesting is that my cards all started at 47 or so Mh on Eth, then wimped out to 22 after a few minutes. I think this would be an easy fix, TBQH, but we will see.
Thanks,
I just added T-Rex to NiceHash and I was considering stealing the command line to mine Conflux with a pool.
You need to use the 470.05 NVidia driver in Win10 to break the Hashrate limiter on the other NVdia drivers. If you’re using Risers, you will need to use an HDMI dummy plug on the GPUs not connected to a monitor.
Did you do a clean driver install?
It sounds like this is your primary GPU, so no need for HDMI plugs.
Yes i do clean install, when i start minink hashrate is 48, then drops to 25
I was using 470.05 still got 22Mh/s on every card after an initial short 47Mh/s.
Yes, with HDMI plugs installed.
That’s too bad. One of my cards kept crashing my rig, so I had to return it. I was tempted to reapply the thermal paste, as I did not want to lose the card. But it’s not worth the risk for what it cost me. 
PCIe 3.0 x8 or x16?
PCIe 3.0 x16 but i still dont get the full hashrate, and i have monirot pluged in
Are you sure? Could you check it with GPUZ? Some x16 slots have x4 wired only.
Hello,
I have a rtx 3060 which has been working at 50.5Mh for 15 days on W10 with driver 470.05
on the other hand after a few hours the overclock jumps and drops to 41Mh.
I just have to reapply the overclock and start again for 50.5mh
but frankly it’s boring someone with the same problem?
the 3060 runs with a 1080 in parallel
Hi can i use this motherboard (B365 M AORUS ELITE (rev. 1.0) Key Features | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global) for 2x 3060 mining and for full potencial?
Thanxs for help
No, You cant. Only one 3060 can mine with full potencial on this board.
I found the solution.
it is when the screen goes to sleep that the card mines less.
the display must be left on
RTX 3060 with driver 470.05 and displayport cable = 50.5mh / s
Which settings do you use to get 50.5MHs?
Win 10
driver 470.05
overclock -500 coreclock,1485 memory clock, power 70%
the card turn around 50.2 and 50.7mh

Purchase a dummy HDMI plug. It makes the gpu think there’s a monitor plugged in and on.
no need
I am on a gamer tower with a 3060 and a 1080 in parallel
to check the screen is still connected, it allows me to manage the RIGs
