My 5950x been getting 1600 second which i am very happy with it BUT My 3970x on Madmax been getting 45 minute plus on both Windows 10 n Ubuntu (NOT Using Virtual Machine) I think that is something wrong with my MSI TRX40 Pro WIFI motherboard. It will be great if any 3970x owner with great results can share their motherboard spec.
I have try several NVME stick. Gen 4 n Gen 3 still getting same results. I set my Ramdisk to 112GB.
When i run on Windows 10. From task manager i notice my logical processor is only 50% running which is not under full load on stage 1. I have try many setup in bios but still cant run full load on stage 1.
You mean, you are running 4 Madmax parallels ? Your machine only can have max 256GB ram. So which mean you are running
1 NVME + ramdisk
2. NVME + Ramdisk
3. Nvme + nvme
4 Nvme + nvme
correct?
Yes i did try before running parallels But my 3970x , Job 1 took almost 1 hr to complete n Job2 took more then 1hr to complete. Job 1 Nvme + 110 Ramdisk n Job2 Nvme + Nvme.
i have try format my Windows 10 several time and the results is still the same. Madmax Nvme + Ramdisk 45 minute and SWAR MAX 62 plots in 24hr using 8pc NVME if more then 25 concurrent job then it will take more then 11hr for one task.
I have not tried Swar since installing the new CPU(was the 16/32 version). I am using the ASUS sage wrx80 Motherboard. Windows just plain sucks all around…
You can try this calculation , 8 core per Job which mean your 64C can run 8 concurrent job. I had a friend whom is 32 core had no problem running 4 concurrent plot. ONLY my stupid 3970x had a problem which i cant solve.
My 3970x plotting speed using 110G ramdisk is the same time i have on my i7 Nvme + Nvme 45 minute.
i had try replace ram n NVME but no luck so my last option its the motherboard.
I will have the same setup, but with the ASUS PRIME TRX40-PRO motherboard. My CPU will be coming in tomorrow, so I will let you know my results on Ubuntu.
I’m seeing 20 minutes, before with chia-classic plotter I was seeing 5hr, but I staggered, so I was getting 16/day, now I’m getting 3*24 per day, so what
HDD storage space is the problem, the stuff is expensive now $60/TB, making plots was never a problem
Fast plotting has existed for GPU on burst & bhd for a 1,000 years, all of a sudden all these noobs to hdd mining think some thing is new, no its not, its just that team-moron @chia-dev made the decision at chia to give the community slow plotting sw that destroyed drives.
…
oh, 32 core amd, 64gb ram, 590 mobo, 3 nvme’s ( 2-mp600’s, 1-980 )
