GTX 1080 Overclocking for Mining Ethereum (How to MAXIMIZE HASHRATE) - Sebs FinTech I show you how to overclock an MSI GTX 1080 graphics card in MSI Afterburner to increase your hashrate for mining Ethereum. We do this by first of all applying a memory tweak to our 1080 GPU in our mining software. After this we open up MSI Afterburner and start adjusting the memory clock for our graphics card. We then move onto adjusting the core clock for our GTX 1080 in MSI Afterburner. Finally, we lower the power limit of the graphics card in order to reduce the power consumption of the GPU. In doing this we were able to increase the hashrate of our 1080 to about 39mh/s which is a pretty decent mining hashrate for a GTX 1080 graphics card. After having watched this tutorial, I'm hoping you will know the exact steps for overclocking your own GTX 1080 graphics card for Ethereum mining in MSI Afterburner. About overclocking: for crypto mining using GPUs, overclocking is a way of tweaking the settings of your graphics cards in order to improve their performance and thereby increase your mining hashrate. Please remember that overclocking is done at your own risk and the settings for my graphics card won't necessarily work for you as each card is unique. In short, my process when overclocking in MSI Afterburner for crypto mining is this: pull memory clock all the way down. Then increase by small amounts until you get a crash. Then leave the memory clock where you got the highest hashrate without crashing and repeat the same process for your core clock. Remember that core clock and memory clock can impact each other so it is important to always analyze and adjust your numbers throughout the process, and experiment!

Thank you for your awesome videos! I'm a maths and computer science teacher myself and I really appreciate the way the represent your ideas. Clear, understandable, no nonsense. That's what most of us teachers strive to achieve for the whole of our careers. Hats off, honestly!
When it comes to 1080's, they are unbelievably different personalities. Two of my cards won't take any overclocking. One crashed immediately if I tried to use memtweak. Maximum hash rates can be anything between 24 to 40 MH/s. It's the most complicated GPU I've used for mining so far. In comparison, v1 3060's are all the same in my opinion. You can easily push 48-49 MH/s and the differencies are minimal. Some cards such as 1660's need to be overclocked in very different ways, but it only depends on the memory manufacturer. What I'm trying to say, is that for most cards you could make a simple chart and use it to overclock. For the 1080 you can't. Just roll the dice.
Keep up the good work. I'm a follower now.

Hello, I have exact same card as you. My settings are 80% TPU, +135 core clock and +400 memory clock, getting around 35ish mh/s. If I push it more, it instantly crashes. Im using NBminer with --mt 6, and 4 other cards (rx 480, 2x1060 and one more 1080). Can it be that my amd drivers are blocking me from getting more hashes out of my 1080s? Ive tried every single combination in msi afterburner, and only on this setting are 1080s stable. Thank you in advance, much love, your videos are great!!

Great Video as always, but note that if you run into a problem running the batch after entering --mt, all you have to do is enter the full path to the t-rex miner. C:\Miner\T-rex\t-rex.exe for example :)
Settings: (Note I typically go for efficiency) I set MT to 5. PL 75%, CC +200, MC +600. Getting 35.95mh 159w for Efficiency of 230kH/W.
I hit 37mhs at CC 225 MC 700 but over 180W and around 203kH/W

Anybody knows why i can't get even 30 MHS with my ZOTAC GTX 1080 regular not AMP!? Tried clocking but it does not seem that it affects much hash rate, from zero OC to 700mhz memory it just adds around 1, 2 mega hash, core clock also does not affect it much, i tried Phoenix, trex and now nbminer and same thing everywhere, i will try mt 6 to see if that changes anything.

Hey Seb were you able to keep those settings for a day or more? My GTX 1080 is at 65% PL, +100 Core and +600 on memory and stays at 33.8MH/s. When going above 600 it crashes after a couple of hours but I never tried that with more than 65% PL... Thanks!

I can't overclock more than one card using Afterburner or T-Rex commands without getting can't find nonce errors. Even with fresh windows install and Virtual Memory nearly maxed out.

Hello Sebs, I have used windows and it works perfectly, I manage to upload 36 mhs in my 1080 msi. My query is if I can modify the configuration in Hive Os to reach 36 mhs? thank you.
reply

The maximum I can hit on my 1080ti appears to be around 37.88MH/S with a 850 Mhz memory clock, 0 core clock and power limit 102. NO clue how you're hitting in the 40+
reply

I have the same card. My lottery wasn't as nice as yours. I get 106 core 433 memory and --mt 4 memory tweak. = 34.2 MH, but I'm happy repurposing the old card
reply

man you speak for 36 hashrate i have 1080 the max hash rate i can get is 26..... :( how you get this number i am new on this and i use the nicehash program
