L3+ password argument question
Posted: Mon Dec 18, 2017 10:41 pm
Now this will probably sound really stupid but stick with me, I'm a bit of a noob.
Does the w= argument limit how much power the L3+ uses? For example I put in w=800 but the miner needs to use slightly more than that, would them miner cap at 800 watts?
Yes, I know this sounds stupid and I know the miner will use as much power as it needs but the way it's worded on the Help for prohashing page confuses me.
But the w= argument only provides data, and should not interfere with how much the the miner uses, right?

- from the prohashing argument sectionsets the power this miner consumes, in watts
