I ended up going this route. Not quite as nice as setting a fan curve or a target temperature, however if I get consistent work units, it won't really matter. I set the fan to 65% which is keeping the 1080ti at 79C, which isn't too bad of a compromise between temp and noise in my office.sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=28
Reboot and then open Nvidia X server settings (menu/administration on linux mint) or by command line using 'nvidia-settings' then go to thermal settings and click on enable fan control and then use the slider to adjust fan speed.

According to the documentation, it shall not be set lower than 90. The FAHControl UI actively enforces this. I haven't investigated whether manual edit of the config file enables lower values than 90. (I am using 95 myself currently.)with the current WU issues, it might be helpful to obtain work units early:

Default is to wait until 99% done, but I would suggest setting it to 5%.

client-type:special-sauce configured currently.) Estimated PPD of the running jobs are a mixed bag as usual. They are still higher than months before (the FahCore_22 vs. _21 effect presumably), and I can't tell whether or not they went down compared to yesterday, from eyeballing the logs.I’m running a 1080ti founders edition, purchased the first day of 1080ti availability. The blower fan is fantastic for getting and keeping the hot air out of the case, so there is no reason to take the side panel off to keep temps down.Not bad honestly i had to ramp the ones on the Zotac Mini 1080ti to 75% to keep me closer to 76-79cel but that's for full load. You can hear it but the second i put on my headphones, even all the noise of the Antec 900 not a issue for me. The new 120mm ones on the way do 41dba each, but gonna be worth. I may finally overclock for the first time on this thing! I hope so if i am gonna deal with all the noise of 2 120mm fans fans at 2,500rpm and 76cfm.
What model you running out of curiosity?

It is quite likely that points were generated and counted, but that just the stats export is having a clog for a while. That happened to several of us recently, and at different times from user to user. The "hidden" points should show up eventually when the clog unseats just by itself.Something is screwed up good 2/3rds of the WUs My 2 clients have done in the past 12 hrs aren't being counted or generating points. Hate to to be burning KWH for nothing.

I'm no expert at reading these logs but the WUs don't look right when they upload, No estimated points are indicated and there is never any indication in stats the work was ever done. I have no problem doing this. In fact I am damn happy to but It's one thing if my client sits idle doing nothing for lack of work but this is work being done and then apparently vanishing. It is not the odd WU this is very nearly all the work that my clients did today. And This isn't about Stats for me. Please don't think that. Stats are just a way for me to gauge my contribution and see if I can coax a little extra. This is more about where is the work? The stats and the odd logs are telling me Something is wrong and I am just trying to understand where the problem is si I can correct it if it is on my side. That doesn't appear to be the case however. Maybe they will show up at some point but based on similar missing work in the past two weeks since i started back up I am not confidant.
If it says something about the work being "dumped", something went wrong. If you're overclocking a video card, maybe don't.That's just it what I was seeing in the logs looked like something was going wrong. didn't look like a successful upload that has a points estimate when it is finished.

I set power limits to keep my cards under 70C. But that's in a cold basement, so maybe they're as hot as yours internally.So far with 70% power limit i am boosting to 1633 and staying under 80 cel.
How did you manage that? I went to set mine to 50% & it said it wouldn't allow less than 90%.Not sure if you are already aware of this, but client-type: advanced might help you:

More at the link.On April 3 Greg Bowman said:The spike of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (shown below) is one particularly appealing target for designing therapeutics to combat the COVID-19 disease. It is actually comprised of three identical proteins arranged in a circle. Many copies of the spike protrude from the surface of the virus, where they wait to encounter a protein on the surface of many human cells, called ACE2. Binding of a spike to ACE2 initiates a series of events that ultimately allow the virus to enter the human cell. Therefore, therapeutics that bind the spike in a manner that blocks its interaction with ACE2 could provide a valuable means to prevent infection. [...]
