I have two rigs - 1 with 3x evga 3080 FTW3 running smoothly from day one at 99.50 hash
1 with 6x Gigabyte 3080 Gaming OC giving me nightmares from day one
Gigabyte rig is currently stable after several days of trial and errors, but hash rate varies from 90.4 - 96.5. All have the same OC -200 / 2000 / 230W, but those with lowest score don`t go over 222W. I have tried numerous oc setups and the current one is the only stable so far. Do you have any idea how to make the slowest run at 230W? I know Gigabyte are not the best for mining, but it is what it is. Any help would be much appriciated!
Set power limit at 250w. I have this issue with some of my 3080s, any power limit below 250w causes hashrate to drop under 100MH/s and become unstable (90-96).
Thanks for you reply, just pushed all to 250w and lets see what it does. These samples are qithout back thermal pad ao I believe they are poqer throttling. What oc setting do you run?
I struggled previously with 3080s trying to keep below 250w and stable with 100MH/s, so far setting to 250w has been most consistent solution. I have a few more 3080s coming in the next month and I will report my findings then as well. Let me know how your rig is working now?
Not until there is away in linux to do so. I have recently dealt with throttling on the new 3080’s, in this case you will see power usage below the set threshold (ex: 223w when PL is 240). I had to secure additional thermal pads to suppor the memory chips on the GPU side. After this update, all cards are stable at 100.xMH/s and 240w PL.
