Mouse stutter and miner freezes with 1070 Ti #77

Not sure my 1070Ti is being properly detected. It sees 19 SMX, 76 blocks, with 32 threads. Any way to specify cuda configuration?

As an example ccminer 2.2.5 sees it at 1216 threads. vram usage is also double the other ccminer, peaking at 5.6GB of vram.

I'm only guessing this is the cause of the mouse stutter. When the system locks up, I can't do anything. Mouse control is released only for a split second before locking again for a while. Probably wouldn't be a problem if this GPU was a secondary card, and not the main display.

Attempting to use this miner for mining Superior Coin with XMR v7 algo.

You can specify the launch config with -l 32x76 for example.
Looks like ccminer 2.2.5 is using 32x38 as default.

You could play around with the --bfactor and --bsleep options.
Default is --bfactor 6 and --bsleep 100
bfactor is splitting up the calculation into smaller pieces
bsleep is the waiting time before continuing with the next piece

Thank you for the direction. I believe I've settled on a 16x76, which still gives the 1216. Additionally, a bfactor of 10 seems to have stopped the chunking. I'll experiment more this evening, but I do believe its workable. TY for your assistance.

@Rippleeffect1 what is your OC setting for your 1070?

+225 core and +680 RAM @75% power. On cryptonight v7, this pulls just under 100w.

I've been able to use is with the above configuration for sometime. At the moment I have it mining another coin, but I hop back and forth occasionally.
