Mining overclocking settings for Nvidia cards: GTX 1060,1070,1080,1080 Ti

In this post, you will learn about MSI Afterburner overclocking settings for Nvidia GTX cards for various mining algorithms.

If you’re looking for overclocking settings for the cards you use for gaming, do a Google search. This post is for a dedicated cryptocurrency miner.

If you are mining right now or planning to mine in the near future with an Nvidia GTX series card and want to get the most out of your card, then overclocking is a must. When overclocking the card, you can increase the mining hashrate to while reducing the consumed power card. Simply put, overclocking will allow you to mine with the most optimized settings, resulting in increased income. Keep in mind that overclocking can void your GPU warranty, so always double check with your card manufacturer if overclocking is allowed or not.

Pros of overclocking

1. You will get more mining hashrate, which will lead to more income.
2. By reducing the tdp, the power required, you will save money on your electricity bills.
3. Custom fan curve, you can manually set the GPU fan speed to keep the cards running at lower temperatures.

Cons of overclocking

1. Warranty: If you overclock your card, you may void your warranty if the card manufacturer does not allow it. So always double-check this with your card manufacturer – by the way, the manufacturers of maximum GPUs allow overclocking.
2. System Freeze: If you overclock your card more than the set limit, the system will freeze / freeze, leaving you with a system reset as your only remaining option. While overclocking your GPU, you may have to reboot your system several times.

How to overclock Nvidia cards for mining

Overclocking will increase GPU performance by increasing core and memory frequencies while lowering tdp.

TDP stands for Design Temperature. No matter what Nvidia cards you have, be it an Nvidia GTX 1060,1070,1080, Titan X / Xp or GTX 1080 Ti , the overclocking process will be the same for everyone. belongs to the Pascal family of GPUs.

We’ll be using MSI Afterburner, a freeware widely used for overclocking. GPU manufacturers have their own overclocking utilities, but you won’t get the results you want with them. If your card manufacturer does not allow manual overclocking of cards, you run the risk of getting a warranty, then you can use reputable overclocking software provided by the card manufacturer.

Zotac: FireStorm Utility

MSI: MSI Afterburner

Gigabyte: Xtreme Engine Gaming

ASUS: GPU Tweak II

I have a Gigabyte Aorus Extreme 1080 Ti and Zotac AMP Extreme 1080 Ti and I overclocked them using MSI Afterburner.

MSI’s Afterburner will work on cards from other manufacturers as well.

I could do a video tutorial on this, so consider subscribing to push notifications (bell icon at bottom left) to get the latest updates from our JKCrypto.com website. Until then, follow the picture below.

If you have installed any other overclocking utility, please uninstall it first, otherwise it will mess up MSI Afterburner settings .

1. Download MSI Afterburner .
2. Install and open.
3. Set tdp from 75% to 120%. If the cost of electricity is not an issue, you can set it to 120%, otherwise 80-85% will be fine.
4. Initially, the core frequency is set to 0. Start increasing it with an offset of +10 until the system crashes. +50 will work with most maps.
5. Initially, the memory frequency is set to 0. Start increasing it with an offset of +50 until the system freezes. +100 will work with most maps.
6. Set custom fan curve, see below image for reference. Make sure your GPU fan is not constantly running at 100% speed, I prefer 80%.
7. This is your card overclocked and you mine with optimal settings.

I have a 7 GTX 1080 Ti rig and all of my cards run below 70 ° C. I am currently mining zcoin which has an energy efficient mining algorithm and when mining zcoin my card runs below 50 ° C.

I will be updating this post with the optimal mining overclocking settings for each Nvidia card.If you’ve already done the best overclocking for your card, please comment below so that everyone doesn’t have to waste time doing it manually through trial and error. Be sure to include your card and brand name .

Mining overclocking settings for Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti

I will be making spreadsheets for every profitable algorithm and every 1080 Ti variant shortly. The overclocking setting will be different for different mining algorithms.

If you have top-end GTX 1080 Ti, Gigabyte Aourus Extreme Edition, Zotac Amp Extreme Edition, etc.

tdp: 80% – 120% [I am using my GPU at 85%]

Core frequency

: +150

memory clock: +500

If you have a mid-range 1080 Ti, use these settings.

td: 80% – 120%

core frequency: +75

memory clock: +400

If you have a lower resolution 1080 Ti variant, Founder’s version cards, use these settings

td: 80% – 120%

core frequency: +50

memory hours: +300

If the system crashes after overclocking, reduce the overclocking values ​​until the system is stable
