Miner boards sometimes aim to reduce voltage while overclocking

which is useful for gaming too tbh

are you oc'ing for gaming or mining

this is just experimentation

gtx 1060 cant OC for shit last i checked due to locked bios and a voltage cap programmed into the locked bios

you should be able to get 325 sols out of a 1060 with +200core +900mem +110w

mine will push the core to around +250

its probably not stable tho.

i keep the memory around 800 and the power raises by 10%

it is

just a lucky card

but until someone cracks the pascal bios, voltage cant be modified to go high for extreme overclocking

not that i want to overclock a card outside of the lock while its still in warranty

you can change the wats in msi afterburner for windows or other os's in linux

i use afterburner for it

but after a certain percentage, the voltage slider is useless

i think it was 15%

then the card refuses to go any higher

now you can physically bypass the regulator IC on the 1060 too

but it is wayyy to valuable to do that without good reason

ah I don't do hardware stuff or BIOS OC

as in actually messing with the BIOS image, not using a OC tuner in BIOS

I'm at a loss with overclocking ryzen too, but i dont have much interest in that

Ryzen is a separate beast from Intel tbh

AM3+ was shit

ryzen is a separate beast from anything before it too

I've overclocked phenom and piledriver (i think thats the fx 8000 series)

literally AM3+ you didn't even have to OC and it would throttle the north bridge

bulldozer is FX 8000

yeah i put tiny fans on my am3+ board around the north bridge

zipties ftw

glad to be rid of the fx 8320 though

had to do that with a client's build, lol

without an OC that thing was producing heat to compete with my 1060

and my 1060 alone is doing well to make me block off my heater

honestly the 1060 is really efficient

yeah so is ryzen 5

pretty content with this build

I'm surprised how cold my room still gets with two Xeons and a 980 OC'd to 1480 (I didn't really push too much)

xeons have to be efficient tho

since they're for databases and shit

also kinda sad that I couldn't find the supermicro BIOS that allowed me to OC

eh these were more performance oriented

2680 V1

now you want to hear something hot

kinda wish I'd gone with the 2690's :(

i have two of the AMD opterons for socket g34

LOL

got them off ebay cheap as fuck

had the quad sockets for about a month

$7 a piece

64 cores

hot as fuck

only 24 total, still hot as hell

but I just couldn't

and i had to redneck my heatsyncs

wish i could've found cheap xeons

this build had the two heatsinks ziptied

well actually

even worse

lmao

string and zipties

that sounds like a pain in the ass to make work

this is it right now

honestly love this build sm

does all the CAD work I need

oh i just have a server on my network to manage network users, give me a shit ton of storage, host servers at my leisure, and provide a layer of security because certain family members keep fucking up while pirating and wind up getting viruses

I dont do CAD work unless you count some cute lil' 3d printing models

hahaha, the CAD is part of my business model

it's really small time tho

well at least its an excuse to buy expensive ass parts lol

well yeah cmon I've got 64 gigs of RAM

it's the best excuse

holy shit

*role Meincraft

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT

THIS FAGGOT ON EBAY SOLD ME 2 1060s THAT WERE FUCKING USED

HE ADVVERTIZED THEM AS FUCKING NEW UNOPENED

THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FUCKING DFAMNBIT

lool

dude u needa start buyin shit from like newegg

and best buy XD

new egg has purchasing limits. ive already bought basically everything i can gpu wise.

i mainly hit the bestbuy in my area and in the next city over and get some good deals on ebay. but this one faggot sold me opened 1060s just now and i looked at em good and they got fucking dust on em. id rip this faggots spine out his skin if i ever saw him.

@SchloppyDoggo next time ask for pics with time stamps

@SchloppyDoggo If they aren't burnt as fuck, I'll buy them off you?

he prob mined them for past 6 months

got a sucker to buy them <:FeelsSmugMan:356316580143169536>

i'll just pay the factory to refurb them if they go down

still leaving a nasty review on the fag tho

i mean

as long as the silicon didnt take any damage id buy mined 1060s for a good price

capacitors can be replaced
