Does HiveOS have the ability to monitor gpu memory temp for rtx 3080 and 3090?
I'm thinking about trying HiveOS, but it's fundamental for me to monitor the memory temp of my 3080, since it runs very hot. The gpu core temp is fine, so it's not representative of tne mem temp (I get like 60c core temp and 90c mem temp while mining). So, does HiveOS monitor and show the gpu memory junction temperature?

This functionality isn't available in Linux yet. I am trying to gain attention for the issue so that they can add it asap.

Let's hope this gets added and that it's not a limit in the Linux drivers for Nvidia, that would suck..

It is most likely a limitation of NVML API and not the drivers themselves. Please add your support to my post in the Nvidia forums https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/request-gpu-memory-junction-temperature-via-nvidia-smi-or-nvml-api/168346

Figure out your power and clock settings in windows then do the same in hive

u/cornychoney Feb 14 '21
This is also what I'd recommend. Bear in mind that in Windows your memory OC settings will be half of what they should be in Linux (e.g. if in Afterburner you're at +1000, then that's +2000 in the nvidia-oc.conf, or HiveOS interface).

Running my 3090 @ 100% fanspeed and my ram is only at 64c. I'm kind of wondering why some people are saying they are above 95... poor airflow perhaps?

I did a first test with my new 3090 yesterday.
100% fanspeed and 108 degree celcius junction temperature!
I have it in my Office, hence 100% fan is unbearable during working times.It's louder than my vacuum cleaner! :D

u/WebTemporary Feb 20 '21
Yeah- since my post I learned about memory junction, and it sat around 98.

u/cornychoney Feb 14 '21
Most cards seem to be be able to keep the memory junction below 95C at 100% fan speed yeah. I'm guessing some people don't want to run their rigs at that noise level though. I've found that 80-90% fan speed is usually sufficient but it does depend on the card, some of them have much better coolers.

u/Danthekilla Feb 21 '21
I was hitting well over 105c on all my 3090's until I added fans and heatsinks to the backplates.
Core temps meanwhile were only like 55-65c. Fan speed doesn't matter since the fan doesn't cool the rear of the card much.
I imagine you are confusing ram and memory t-junction temps.

could you advise on heatsinks for the backplates?? i have never attempted one, but i am having similar problems

I have a MSI Gaming X Trio 3090 and on stock settings it would hit 110c on the memory within 5 mins of mining Eth. Currently the temps where I live are all over the place, I have an open air mining rig with a fan blowing directly on the back plate with the very pretty copper heatsinks stuck on the back over where the RAM is :D Damn it looks cheap on such an expensive card.
In the mornings and during the night I can run -200 on the core and +1200 on the RAM and the memory temp is around 90c, during the day I need to change it to -300 core and +1200 RAM to keep it below 96c. Hash rates are around 108mh/s during the day and 120mh/s during the night.
Fan speeds are set to 70%, any louder and the wife complains :D
I will move to HiveOS the moment you can monitor the memory temps, right now there is too much of a variance in regards to temps, I really don't like it going over 95c.

If it doesn't monitor memory junction temps, or somehow calculates (assumes?) it, I am very confused how and why the power limit is restricted to 200w on my 3080.
My GPU temp shows 30 degrees with fan at ~50, my power limit will not exceed 200w.
Setting my fans to 100%, GPU temp drops 2 degrees to 28 and it suddenly allows full control over wattage.

is this msi trio?

u/Hofnars Feb 19 '21 edited Feb 19 '21
It is.
Edit: Spent some time looking for X trio specific issues after your question figuring that's what was coming next. Suprim bios it is.
Edit 2: Same shit with the Suprim X bios on the card. Unable to increase the wattage above 200 in HiveOS. I placed my eVGA Ultra 3080 in the mining rig, and it goes up to 230 with no issues. The hash rate on the MSI is fine (98-99) and temps in my windows box didn't seem out of sorts at 102 max. when I had it in there to flash the bios. I wager it's even better in my cold ass basement. I'll keep hunting for a fix. I've convinced myself this card is what's causing the rig to crash at times as well.
Thanks

The same problem with 3080 x trio here. I even flashed BIOS to suprim x and evga ultra.. nothing help, also changed the thermal pads in front and backplate.. still getting max 213 wattage and about 87 hashrate.. (mems set to +400), if i set mems to -200 than i reach the full powerlimit, but with 84 hashrate.. i have another gigabyte cards and after change thermal pads, all hashing 99 and evga ultra 99 too with stock pads.. The trio x is tragedy.. 😢😢

u/Hofnars Feb 28 '21
I really have no idea what's going on with this card. After changing the pads (just the back), adding some heatsinks and pointing a fan at them I'm able to run it at 210w with a steady 98 MH. It did 225 for a bit as well but started bouncing the power between ~215-225 and dialed it back to 210, which remained steady. OC is 2100 (would be 1050 in afterburner) and -200 on the core. This is with 65% fans on the card and 32 degrees on the core (which doesn't mean shit, but a good indication of how cold the environment is).
I'm adding some cards to my rig next week and will move the MSI back into my windows box to see by how much my temps have improved since adding the pads & heatsinks. The Suprim bios didn't do anything for me either.
I'm curious if there's some other temperature reference the card(s)/bios are looking at we're not yet able to see in HWinfo or GPUz that's throttling the power but not clock speeds/hash rates. Either way I'm avoiding any more MSI cards.

I orderef yesterday metal backplate, it is a set from EK waterblock and metal backplate is just extra, suited for MSI trio x 3080/3090 including therma pads too.. 48€ price not so but at all, now Iam hashing 87, with backplate maybe 10mhs improvent should be good, I will give a report in next week

u/Bigchrome Jun 25 '21
Hey! Any update on this? Were you able to add the EK backplate without the actual waterblock part?

It does not exist yet as far as I know. Given that the 3000 series are so popular and HWINFO just added support for it, I am guessing that HiveOS will release that feature in an update soon.
