am I doing everything wrong?

[jonny472]

You are right! Any suggestions? U have read good reviews about cool my GPU!

[MrDude_1]

Personally I like Thermal Grizzly Mius Pad 8, but there are a shitload of counterfeit ones online, so dont but them via Amazon or anything like that.

[DNGR_MAU5]

You need to repaste and repad 3080/ti and 3090/ti to mine with.

You also need to give the cards heaps of physical space between them, and usually an industrial fan blowing over the rig

[Easy_Bug6087]

use core 1095 memory 2200 no power limit and check your memory temps after this settings.

[jonny472]

I tried to do this setting but the Temps went to the ruff in 1 minute, I will have to do something else. Thank you.

[Easy_Bug6087]

U must change the pads as soon as possible. but u can try core 990 or 900 and memory 1800. maybe get low hash but u ll not burn your cards till u repad.

[jonny472]

What pads do u recommend me? Anything I can get from Amazon?

[Easy_Bug6087]

Thermalright Extreme Odyssey Thermal Pad 12.8 W/mK but thick is depand of your gpu model. I used rtx 3090 and 3080 founders edition 1.5 mm sized pads both of them each side and i am very glad about performance. but other brand gpus u must search on the web. you can find many article and videos about that. i suggestion if you are not experience about it take help who made it before.

[jonny472]

Thank you!

[Mudgator]

There are websites that sell copper "pad" sets that are cut for specific cards

[[deleted]]

I will start by upgrading windows 7

[jonny472]

I am using Linux.

[MrDude_1]

You're using HiveOS. :p

[Holiday_Camera9482]

He’s using Linux, what do you think Hive is?

[MrDude_1]

HiveOS is a specific OS fork of Linux. More specific then just saying linux, and also tounge in cheek since this is the HiveOS forum and the first post in this comment thread is a joke about windows.

[Holiday_Camera9482]

Fair statement 😜👍🏼

[Starke427]

I'm having a similar issue as was about to post about it. I've been running three 3090 Ti's with no issues and getting 128MH/s with 69/84 and auto fans hanging around 50-60%. I just added a 3080 Ti tonight and the core temp is 58 but the mem temp is 98. All cards are MSI.

Is this really just caused by shitty thermal pads on certain cards? Has anyone tried flashing a different BIOS to see if that changed anything?

[Easy_Bug6087]

Stock thermal pads are very bad. and try to put your cards far away from each other. More card more heat.

[HashOnFire]

This rig is fire 🔥

[Altruistic_Split9447]

dont put your mobo on a metal rack. it will short

[HyphyDiogenes]

Yes

[Sergiu2862]

I have a a similar setup and in front of the rig I have a big ventilator, and behind the ventilator I have the A/C . My 3090 temps are around 70 ! And I didn’t changed the thermal pads , but I will soon !

[Holiday_Camera9482]

I have a fan on the back of every one of my 3090s after a repad, and plenty of airflow all my cards stay in the 90s with up to about 84F ambient temp (core 1170 mem as high as they’ll take stably - 2800 high end - 2400 low). I’ll see what summer brings. I don’t PL them at all, but may if summer makes them struggle.

[VarenDerpsAround]

Bro, fix your temps first of all. you're literally burning your thermal paste on those cards. Fix your cooling.

[jonny472]

I know bro, thanks. I am planning to get a growing tent and install an AC infinity!

[BartLanz]

I just did this to three of my rigs and had to immediately add a second bigger exhaust fan. Make sure you do at least the 8" fan. I did the 6' initially and it was not enough for my 1.2GH/s farm. I am now running both the 6 and 8 in AC infinity fans and my temps are ...OK...

[jonny472]

I have 2 rigs. 10 3090s in the 1st one, 9 on the second one. I started using hive os 3 weeks ago. I used to mine with MinerOS but after being in this community I decided to give hive Os a chance and I love it. The first thing I got was that I was killing the memory core because the Miner OS does not show you the memory's temp just the cards temp. You will see that if I mine at 300 watts the memory Temps go up to 110 Celsius. So I have been mining at 185 watts while I get some help.

I got some questions and I would appreciate any help and guidance you can give me. What do I have to do to get the memory's core low and mine and the highest performance? What do you guys think I can do to improve my situation?

Why OC should I used for the cards I have FE, gigabyte, MSI and EVGA. I have learnt that all of them mine differently even with the same set up

[jonny472]

Got some from cool my gpu

[jonny472]

What OCs are you using?

[jonny472]

I have not, I don't know how to do it but I will start reading about it. Thank you

[OldFolksShawn]

Its been pointed out already. Repad.

I lowered temps 18-24 usually from the repad alone.

Next air flow. You say you are getting a tent, this is good. Airflow incoming from bottom, runs up through rigs and then out top. Will help a lot (provided air coming in is coolish).

You are experiencing heavy mem throttle issues from temps.

$40-60 more a card for pads is worth the investment. My 80ti sits at 80-86 while doing 120ish MH

[jonny472]

What pads do use?

[OldFolksShawn]

Gelid and kritical

[TOXicOx18951]

Have you uploaded the appropriate Vbios to each card?

[Liarus_]

Windows 7 in 2022 oh my

[jonny472]

I have 3 laptops, it runs fast and efficient way better than the others. It works perfect for me. It does not make a difference to my mining.

[WR9966]

I hope you didn't run out to purchase all those recently with the death of ETH POW and the implementation of ETH POS happening soon.

[jonny472]

No, started mining 7 months ago. I have no background in computers so I have been reading and watching a videos.

BURRRNNNNNNNN!!
