Hi, first time poster, long time lurker. Perhaps someone here can help me solve my issue with PX1 on my 3090.

So I primarily use my card for gaming and some rendering/editing but in its off hours I have it mining ETH. I have different profiles set up in PX1, haven't touched voltages but everything else has been tuned and stabalised. However approximately once a week overnight while mining, I'll wake up and check that my power usage will have gone from 300W (70-75% PL) to 385W. I'll shut down PX1 and restart and then everything is right as rain again. Thoughts?

Also, when I restart and load the profile, it never saves the PL and always loads with my PL at 102% on my 3090, which I then adjust again manually. I also have a 1070 and for that profile, everything is saved and untouched.

Thanks for the help!

    PX1 has bug where temp and power limit arnt locked together it seems to default the power limit to where the temp limit is set.
    You power limit changing over night sounds like the nvidia driver has crashed which will default all overclock stuff to stock.

    Thanks for the info regarding the temp/power limit correlation, that may be it.
     
    In regards to the Nvidia driver crashing and resetting, I'm not too sure about that as the other settings are unaffected, it just cranks the power back up to stock. In the reports as well, there isn't a crash report of the card either, just inefficient due to the higher power draw.
     
    I'll play with the temp limit correlation and see if there's something there.
     
    Thanks again!
