im running 2 psu’s.
1000 watts hummer 80 % and a 750 watts hummer 80%.
And yes im perfectly aware that hiveos ussually never has correct consumption but the numbers on end are way off.
Anyhelp would be appreciated.
Miners/Hiveos are not accurate at all, you may start filling these worker settings first
Meter the amount of watts that your hardware uses without GPUs and set the PSU efficiency.
Still will not be accurate but may help a bit
my hardware out of the gpu? are you referring to the risers?
i would use only my 1000 but im scared it wont be enough. the cards i have arent supposed to consume so much. i understand hiveos doesnt have exact numbers but mine are more then double. never happened to me. ive had a rig in the past with 2 psus and would give me about 300 watts more on the wall.
Power supply efficiency is a factor 10-35%. Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum efficiency ratings mean something.
As folks shared: GPUs report a portion of the total consumption to HiveOS. Use the tools shared to gain a more accurate value.
During testing this rig was pulling just under 1.6kW at the wall with 85% efficiency PSUs, under “reporting” 600W and the motherboard/CPU/RAM pull <75W:
I mean your motherboard, cpu, ram…to understand and correct estimate your hardware power consumption you should remove ALL your GPUs, turn the rig on, note down watts pulled from your hardware
Consider that your double PSU increase power usage because 2 ATX psu pull more watt because of efficency than a single server PSU.
And overall, you can optimize a lot your overclocks to lower power consumption
Upgrade your kernel to latest stable version. The version you are running is not optimal for RX6800’s. This is 22 days since January maintenance interval on latest stable kernel with accurate power representation:
without gpu’s im getting 65 watts. after i put my 3060 ti in its goes to 305 at the wall.
so my 3060 ti lhr is consuming 240 watts at the wall. only powered by 1 psu but both are on and raided.
im finding these numbers abnormal if you ask me.
It depends actually, not all the times
For example, on 6800 you are able to reduce power consumption, my 6800xt mine at 62.1 at 100w, and 6800 NON-xt should pulls a little watts less.
Even for the 5700xt, the correct downvolt keep the power low but the hashrate high
how is it better. same power consumption at the wall. 240 watts for a 3060 ti is way to much.
keep in mind the total power rig consumption is 305 watts. 65 watts motherboard and psus
