I tried lowering my power percentage more than 70% but the MH just drops to like 92.

@70% the miner says the gpu is using 220w

I just tried the opposite and raised the power to 75% (239w ish) and I've been getting a steady 100.2MH will see how long that lasts though

I read as long as the memory stays below 100°C then it's good? But will see

This alienwares like my test/learning rig for mining, its been pretty cool to play around with

Thanks to all you guys for the help ^^

Make sure your windows defender or anti virus to exclude nicehash folder.

Yeah I followed some tutorials for setting up windows for mining, I thought I had turned everything off, but for some reason some things are still updating etc on their own

Yeah I didn't realize that, I thought maybe something was wrong or I got a trojan somehow
