Fixes DAG issue, and hashrates are back to what they used to be.
Plus, voltage control finally! I've already dropped all of my cards to 850mV..
I had started to switch boxes over to Windows 10, but I think I'll go back now.

Have 5 of these (I'm quite confident I had bought the last 5 Newegg had in stock) that have been mining for the past couple months at 1075/1850 with 1500 timings. Running 24.5Mh/s at...
Make sure you're using the _AVX one and not the _SSE one.
Also, make sure you're using enough threads. That's an 8c/16t, so you should be able to use 14 threads or so while still keeping the computer somewhat responsive. Make sure you use "-t 14" in the command line.
I'm trying to switch a 6-card one over to Win10, and I'm not having much luck. Had to drop down to 5 cards to boot into Windows. Now it seems it shuts down randomly, and I've yet to figure out why. I'd love to save the power running them all on Windows, but ethOS seems way more solid for me :/...
Yep, I'm the JFER one on there. I've got about 60TB right now up and running. Should be a bit higher, but I've been plotting and moving some stuff to some slower archive drives I picked up. I'll be a little over 100TB in a week or so. Running out of room to plug everything in. Just ordered some...
Hahaha, that was me..
I have deadlines capped at 30 days in my miners, but I have a few plots that seem to throw corrupt deadlines from time to time, so it'll show as a fast deadline on my system, it gets sent, and the confirmation comes back with a horrible deadline. Will be re-plotting those...
Looking at things, I'm probably far better off picking up a pair of i7-4770/4790's. I've got a handful of fairly high-end LGA1150 boards with G3220's in them running my GPU mining rigs, and I've really been wanting to switch them off of ethOS. Think I'm going to end up dropping some Haswell i7's...
Looks like its been good most of the day so far today, though we haven't actually found any blocks yet!
I'm pretty sure I"m giving up on GPU plotting. I get far too many "fast block or corrupt file" messages on my GPU-plotted drives, regardless of whether I did direct or buffer generation. Sad...
Yours looks hung up right now for the last hour or so on block 381885. I was about to make the switch from btfg (major issues there the last few days), but I'm currently at block 381900 with them.
Are the drives all optimized, or are the drives on the NUC not optimized?
They both support AVX2, make sure you're using the AVX2 miner on both machines.
Is hyperthreading enabled on the i5-6260U? The 4690k is a true 4-core while the 6260U is a 2c/4t. It can still run 4 drives at a time, but...
Hilariously, I had the exact same thing happen yesterday, and I was maaaaaaaad because I was at like 93% of a 6TB plot.
Prevent Windows 10 update restarts:

Xplotter can resume if you just re-start it using the same...
I've been having a pretty bad time with using gpuplotgenerator in direct mode on my 1080 Ti. I've wasted plotting 4x6TB and now 4x4TB that way. Keep ending up with plots that give a "Fast block or corrupted file" message. Annoying.
gpuplotgenerator on the 950m in my laptop seems to work just...
Memory timings. The "straps" that are being referred to are the ranges of speed. The "1500 straps" are in effect from 1500-1624, 1625 straps from 1625-1749, etc. They make an immense difference on these cards.
With how the memory timings are stepped down as you go up the straps, overclocking...
I run into the same problem. Just create the directories yourself:
"x:\Burst\plots"
I'm not sure why it has problems doing that, but it happens even when running it as an administrator.
EDIT: Oops, I was a few posts behind. I thought you were still having trouble getting the directories...
Don't use the AIO/GUI at all. Use Xplotter and/or gpuplotgenerator for your plotting (or both in your case maybe), and use the miner-burst program for reading. I'd think that v3 Xeon has AVX2, you'll want to use that exe.
Modifying the miner.conf file is easy enough.
Honestly I didn't read a whole lot into it. I just saw it'd be easy to stack coins quick for a bit before difficulty shot up at all. Goal was to mine 10k of them, and then I ended up forgetting to switch things back one day, hah
Currently I'm mining on two different PCs to the same address on the same pool (BTFG). This pool does not have any sort of penalty/fee for this.
I'm expanding a bit and was wondering if it makes sense to keep everything set up with the same address or if it makes sense to have things split...

^^ that board?
That BIOS should have a Board Explorer option in a Tools menu. Does it detect the card there?
What slots have you tried the 1070 with riser in? Unless you're using a 1080 Ti with a massive cooler (like the AORUS)...
I did it in my desktop for a while without issues in Windows 10. I believe I was using Nicehash at the time, and I think the 1070 was usually mining ZEC, and the AMD cards were of course mining ETH.
I've not tried it with a single instance of Claymore, and I've not tried it in Linux.
I certainly do feel we should try to throw a decent how-to together for a couple of the currently-popular mining trends in here and get them stickied, but until then, you have a few resources.
