thats not a problem, power limit setting limits the power at what you set it at. as in, cant go over that. it doesnt do anything if youre not reaching the limit.
Hi,
I have a new issue I have 2 3070 and 1 3090. I turned in my rig and after 1 hour 3090 gave error, but 2 3070 keeps running, and after half an hour mining stops. I than change my 3090 settings to default. But that same thing happen again. What could be the issue.
Hi, the issue is maybe from your overclock settings. You missing to post the picture of the settings and stats of cards which keaton_hiveon asked.
To use “locked core clocks” which differs from “core clocks”
Your core clock should be above 500 and divisable by 15 without reminder. Take a look here
Which miner you using?
For t-rex miner check FAQ · trexminer/T-Rex Wiki · GitHub
If you using different miner search for their FAQ.
Im using t-rex. Here are my stats and settings. But have in mind that different gpu brands - different settings - mean not exactly the same…
Im using power limit for 3090 because still don’t have ups But Im above the power needed for the current overclocks. My “farm” is 2 gpus only, home mining - and Im expecting not perfect power from the wall.
And to not forget to mention - In front of cards Im using additional fan on full speed
Change your settings to what I mentioned above. Core offsets and default settings are worse on the cards
Actually I don’t have knowledge of locked cores and anything about it. These are the settings my friend told me after he sold the GPU to me. Should I try the settings everon1218 is using. As the screen shot is attached, I hope 3090 will not crash now. And yes you said that power limit is the limit it only cannot go above but can move under the limit.
But I have faced this issue recently. In my current power limit of 320w it keeps at 320w not 1 watt up and 1 watt down for 4 months.
So 2 things guide me about the locked cores and this power limit issue.
Thank you so much replying to my problems.
Use 1130 to 1150 mhz depending on what hashrate you’re after. And as much memory as is stable, no power limits needed. Offsets are wasting power.

124 is a whole lot better than 111. You should switch your other cards to locked clocks as well.
Yes 124 is better but it’s random, because of wattage change. Hash rate keeps jumping between 111 to 124.
124 MHS came when I first booted, I don’t think 124 will come up now.
Probably thermal throttling. Check by running this command nvidia-smi -q | egrep "Thermal Slowdown"
Here you go on your given settings, 3090 gave the error. But this time it kept locked the hash rate to 124 and wattage to 322w.
That 0% fan means the driver crashed because your card isn’t happy at 2700 memory, either because it’s throttling or just silicon lottery. Reduce memory slightly and reboot. You should be able to reduce core clock a little without losing hashrate as well if your card isn’t happy at 2700mhz.

Brother my rig is not starting with 3090, I tried rebooting multiple times. I switched my GPUs thinking it was ryzer issue but no. Rig now won’t start with 3090 on it keeps like this. I had to run just my 3070’s for the day. Ignore the core and memory values I switched GPUs that is why it is happening. Any fix of this do I need to buy a motherboard?
Open the miner in the shell and see what it’s saying

Hi @Zero2,
My settings were unnecessarily high and although I use a large fan against the cards, it turns out that I may have overloaded them too much.
After I made changes as keaton_hiveon suggested to you, I saw that my cards work well and with a good hashrate with more sparing settings. His comments have always been helpful and have helped many users in the community.
I hope you find the best solution for you.

2700 on the mem is way too high. I rarely go above 2400/2500
you should be able to get a STABLE output of 120MH from 2000.
what’s the point of pushing your cards to the limit and getting downtime. downtime is very hard to recoup
actually mining is so freakin time consuming it would just be easier buying the coin. but that’s another story entirely.

Hi @keaton_hiveon , your suggested settings worked well for me but now the wattage is getting lower and I am getting low hash rate as you can see, my take on it is this that due to low wattage hash is less, what settings to implement now. Kindly suggest.
Is it thermal throttling?
It might be thermal throttle, but with my previous settings the one I was using before your suggested one. The temperature was like this and the hash rate rate were 119+.
Check and see if it throttling or not. No need to guess
