Exploring the Crypto Mining Rig

We start our exploration with a prepped rig for the video. All USB PCI adapters have been unplopped and the rig is ready for action. A keen interest is on the latest GPU risers.com riser that stands out with its modern-day aesthetics – the pristine white appearance, the stylish, functioning clip, and the gold-plated USB. As the power input, this riser has both a six-port for power as well as six port here.

In operation, this rig is driven by the 470s, which many in the mining community will identify with seamlessly. For the purpose of exploration and testing out new cards today, we have the rig powered down.

The New Card on the Block

Our primary focus will be on testing the new card on the block — the G-Force EVGA G-Force GTX 1050 Ti. The aim is to gauge its hash rate for a detailed evaluation. Outfitted with an intuitive feature that negates the need for power other than what it’s getting through the x16 slot, this card calls for a close examination. Once the machine is turned on (after the card is installed), the next course of action is to evaluate the hash rate on the computer.

Hash-Rate Evaluation

Continuing our journey on the computer, we have the Ge-Force GTX 1050 Ti currently running with the micron g ddr5. The card has a flight sheet in place but no overclock settings, making this our first order of business. The goal is to present the community with the hash rate on the default configuration before proceeding to overclock this GPU.

At first, the rig is mining RavenCoin at six Mega Hash on 75 Watts, which isn’t too bad for a four-gig card. To determine the overclock settings, I utilized popular presets already used by others for this card. After certain adjustments, the system rebooted and ready to work more efficiently.

Overclocking and Hash-Rate Enhancement

After the reboot, the new preset significantly improved the rig’s performance in terms of power consumption and overall speed. But there was room for more improvement. Guided by data from ‘What to Mine’—an excellent website for miners—I discovered that I could boost the kapow runs to about 6.1, with some other minor adjustments.

Implementing these changes to the core clock, the memory clock, and the tdp, I initiated yet another reboot to apply these settings. The result this time was a substantial improvement. The rig was now mining almost seven Mega Hash on 75 Watts, running at 150 and 900. Not too shabby, considering that this is a four-gig card.

Final Thoughts and Community Engagement

While these results are impressive, there’s always a possibility of squeezing out more power from the card. This can be achieved with a more critical and meticulously tuned approach. Two methodologies miners can consider are updating the drivers on this card and updating the card’s BIOS. I’ll be posting articles on these subjects in the coming days, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, I’m curious to hear what the rest of the mining community is doing with their 1050 Ti’s. Are you guys mining RavenCoin like me, or are you exploring other options? What kind of overclock settings are you using? I’d be delighted to replicate them and see if I can match your Mega Hash scores.

Also, if there’s a particular miner that you recommend for the 1050 Ti, please let me know. Every card has a sweet spot, not only in terms of the overclock settings but also for the miner that’s used. Some cards perform better with specific miners, so sharing this information will be beneficial to the community.

Lastly, I hope this short video about the EVGA Ge-Force GTX 1050 Ti and the hash rate it gets mining RavenCoin was informative. If you liked the content, please hit the like button, and don’t forget to subscribe for future videos.

  1. hi,i m mining the same graphics of nvidia gtx 1050 ti as you shown in video but dont know where to mine to get the most profit out of it…currently i am working at nicehash and mining bitcoin ,my mining hashrate is 19mh/s but with a outcome of 8 rupees per day 🙁 can you help?do u know any website or coin that i should try to mine instead of this bitcoin at nice hash it would be much help if you can tell something about this.thanks 🙂

  2. I have a wierd thing going on… When i mine on Windows 10 + T-rex miner with oc settings (+250 and +650) i get 7 – 7.1 MH and that's great. But when i do this on HiveOS + T-rex with same settings i get only around 6.6 MH and after sometimes the rig touches 90° and gets shutdown to cool it. But i am not getting any heating issue on Windows 10. Anybody know why?

  3. As of December 2021 this card is main used for either speculative mining (SHIB via Unmineable) or DOGE. Which just saw a 27% price increase!

    Ravencoin/Lite is also profitable. But again; better for the long run.

  4. My Gigabyte 1050 ti 4gb card.
    Core Voltage 100%+
    CC +225 | 1950~ kind of going up and down
    MC +1000 | 4503mhz Micron Memory
    PL 90% | Board power draw is almost 97.6W, pci slot power 37.2
    TL 70C | Never going beyond 69C
    Average hashrate 7.61mh/s

    Wonna try to add some thermal headroom but watercooling this bad boy may be outdated.. what about 10 of those instead? that might be interesting.

  5. Gtx1050ti. Trex. Ravencoin lite. Coinminerz. GPU +162mhz. Memory +480mhz. Average hashrate is 8.97mh/s. Peaks at 11.5mh/s. Low is around 5.5mh/s. Temp 64c. With unminable i have average of 13mh/s mining SHIB with the 1050ti.

  6. Based on your own admission in the description in regards to the craze of the prices of GPUs… that tells me you’d rather scalp someone of their money instead OF SELLING IT FOR WHAT YOU paid…. Not gonna buy ANYTHING PC related from you even if you’re selling it for $5… I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE people who resell something for anything more than what you paid for it… you’re one.

  7. So far I've been able to power the card from the slot only, no throttle of any kind. Custom curve in MSI AB, as I also use the card on that PC for day to day tasks on Windows.

    Card: Palit StormX single fan
    Power consumption: 63W
    Memory: +700
    Memory clock: 4203
    Core clock: 1632
    Core voltage: 825mV
    Hashrate: 6.9-7 on Ravencoin
    Fan: 50%, also works with auto at ~42% but the card gets 2-3 degrees warmer.

    I was not able to go above 6.3 until I added "-m 3" option on T-Rex for memory timings. I tried memory timings above that, but had little to no effect. That allowed me to drop the frequency from +800 to +700.

    With that config I am able to work on that machine, watch YouTube videos, open up some 3d printing slicing software and generally go about my day as usual.

  8. NBminer, Core 165, Mem (micron) 2000, Power 90 W (extra 6pin power, yes): 7.5 – 7.8 Mh

    Sometimes, i duno, miners stack with zero hashing rate with no errors – machine reboot fix that.

    With 75 w and 6.7 MHs it works without stack ( 5 month of rvn mining covered 65% of its price paid in 2017 – have not sold rvn yet, thats why)

  9. Zotac GTX 1050ti mini
    Core clock= +200
    Memory clock= +875
    Power limit= 90 or 95
    Fan speed= auto

    This is what I use for ravencoin mining and I get 7+ MH/s …. I use betterhash for mining and I also suggest you to use betterhash give these settings a try if you have GTX 1050 ti mini

  10. Interesting. I have 4 1050ti 3 evga 1 dell they all are pretty much equal. Windows/t-rex/afterburner/kawpow hash on almost every coin is 7.2 ish with +150 core +750 mem and 100 Power. thing i noticed though using the kawpow algo vs etc is the pools payout is higher on kawpow by like 2-4 coins depending. Doge for example is about 4 coins higher per day using kawpow vs etchash, which on my pool mines rvn and pays in doge. good alt when 1559 hits and all eth/etc takes adump as projected. nice setup man thanks

  11. I am getting 13.1 Mh on a single GeForce 1050 TI OC 4gig. I used ASUS Tweak III. Download it. I also does multiple GPUs. Settings are: GPU 1565 Mem Clock 7502 Fan 30 temp is 65. Things went so well I bought another one of these cards and put it in. Did some tweaking and with both cards doing RVN getting 26.2 Mh
