  1. True. Understood. I'll try to get some soon. I believe the T400 is a non-consumer card and doesn't have the p2 lock on it for CUDA workloads. The weird thing is that this happens even with only plex which I didn't think was considered a CUDA workload. (Although I don't know enough about it.)
  2. When I was running tdarr, it was hitting the card at 100% utilization, but running it slower than it would have had it been at p0
  3. According to "nvidia-smi -q -d SUPPORTED_CLOCKS | more" my max clocks on my 3050 should be 7001 and 2130. Under power state p2, I am only getting 6800 and 1807, so it is definitely being slowed. If I try to change it using "nvidia-smi -ac 7001,2130", it tells me that it isn't supported.
  4. I'll play with it some more tomorrow and see. Doing 4k transcoding to 1080p
  5. Looks like it is possibly an issue with the driver. Apparently Nvidia locks you at p2 if you are doing any CUDA work on consumer cards
  6. Just put a 3050 in and it is also stuck at p2.
  7. No nvidia-persistenced. Not sure if it is slower or not. Just switched to a 3050 and it is also showing p2 always.
  8. 1660 Super. It always stays in power mode P2 and never goes to P0 even under high load. I know of at least one other person with this issue.
  9. No. Mine always shows P2 no matter if it is at idle or fully loaded.
  10. I have tried loading it up with no change to the power state.
  11. That works for getting it to go to p8 (idle) when not in use, but it doesn't help me to get to p0 (full power) instead of p2 when being used.
  12. The last 8 episodes of a show I transcoded (the originals are all in the same h.264,. 1080p format) 1060TI (on remote unRAID server) average FPS: 81,83,87,82 1660 (on local unRAID server)Super: 58.60.57.58
  13. I have enabled nvidia-persistenced. It is definitely slower. I reliably get about 20-50% more fps on the 1060TI on similar files (running 2 workers on each machine).
  14. When I use it in Plex or Tdarr docker containers, it never gets above P2 power state (as reported by GPU statistics). When it is not being used, it drops to P8 (which is normal).
  15. Is there any way to force the card to use p0 power state? Mine 1660 Super is stuck on p2 when transcoding and is actually slower than my 1060TI (at power level p0) in another server.
  16. One of my unraid servers has a 1660 Super that won't go to power state p0. The highest it goes (using tdarr/plex) is p2. My other server has a 1060TI and it actually transcodes faster, but it has a p0 power state. How can I get the 1660 Super to go to p0?
  17. I've had it all up and running for a few days and it seems great. The only issue I am seeing is that my 1060TI on a remote machine is getting about double the FPS that my 1660 Super (on the local machine) is getting. I am running 2 workers on each. I have noticed that the 1060 is showing power state p0, while the 1660 is at p2. I'm not sure if that is the issue or not.
  18. I removed the wireguard because I couldn't get it working correctly. Same issues. I ended up wiping the USB drive and it all works now. Even reinstalled wireguard and it works properly now. Thanks
  19. And I have tried using automatic DNS servers as well as 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8
  20. All of a sudden, I am having major issues with networking on my Unraid server. I can access the server from my network, but it doesn't seem to be able to access the internet at all. If I try to ping an internet server, it says 'host unreachable'. One thing I noticed is that I am using a 192.168.1.x network, but when I try to ping from the server, it looks like it is trying to use a 10.253.0.x address.
  21. I currently have 2 Seagate 6TB drives (the shingled ones) as my parity drives. I recently picked up a couple 6tb 7200rpm SAS drives cheap. I have them in the array right now, but they are still pretty much empty for the moment. Would there be any advantage to switching my parity to these drives instead of the seagate ones?
  22. You could use a reverse breakout cable and the motherboard sata ports, or you could buy an hba. They are pretty cheap. From what I have read, the 920w power supplies are much, much quieter than the 1200w ones,
  23. I know what you mean. I'm running dual Xeon E5 2670s (16 cores total/ 32 with hyperthreading) and while it can keep up witha 4k HEVC transcode, the seek times on FF/REW are too long to be acceptable for the family.
  24. That works great until you need to transcode due to subtitles or another reason. At that point, it transcode the highest quality file, which makes sense, however even my dual Xeon server can't keep up with a 4k transcode.
