Title: GA-970A-DS3P - cannot run more then 3 gpu's - PLEASE HELP
Post by: ipolic on May 05, 2016, 03:37:03 PM
Hi, I bought gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P for which I know MANY miners use, it should run 5 gpu's without problem. When we run 1 gpu up to 3 gpu's it works, when we run 4 gpu's imediatelly after hashing stats pc just powers off, it is not PSU issue since with same setup, same cards, same everything other botherboard works, we also tried all bios versions for this board. We double tested all HW and same setup on 2 diff boards, all fine, on this one, simply when hashing starts with 4 gpu's->power off in 2-3 seconds.

ANY idea?

THANK YOU TONS!

is this for alt coins?  if so it belongs in alt coins section.


so are you mining eth coins or what?


you mention  other motherboard works what is that motherboard?

 you may not like the answer I give, but if everything is 100% the same  your board has a short.



So including the motherboards  are they the same mobos.
