Title: 6X RX 470 win 7 rig
Post by: Charloz24 on November 03, 2016, 02:23:10 PM
I am waiting for my H97 aniversary, but it look like 6X RX470 are not working on win 7? Even with 6gpumod?

So what is the better in my case:

Try win10 (must purchase it)

Or win 8 (I already have a DVD but never tried mining with it)

Or is there some story where it could work in Win7?

TIA

Use Windows 10 or Linux only way to get 6 working.

you can still get windows 10 free i read some place legally looking for more info on zcash bios modding which i found zero on or found something, some on the zcash forums are working on it but with no real stable miner there afraid to try to much .

win 7 will run it better but unless you can get a fully updated copy and install that way it can take while to update but it should run it better then 8 or 10 , has non of  the BS add ware 8 stared getting and very little runs at start up compared to 8 and higher . it a real os system.

I am aware that win 7 is best, but need another option if it can't do 6GPU

With mod you can run 6 cards on Windows 7.

HI ALL

I have 6 x msi rx470 8g gaming x setup in a H81 pro BTC board and I cannot get the sixth card to run. I have tried everything. Is it still the case that 6 rx 470 cards will not run on windows 7?

Why not use simplemining os on a 8 GB USB flash drive www.simplemining.net ? Easy to use and it's free for now.

Windows 10 works out-of-the-box with 6x GPU everytime for me with 400-series cards

You might be thinking the 500-series. I definitely had a lot of trouble with it, but finally got 6x 570's working.

Try smOS. You can find its ANN thread over here.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541084

Please next time when you want to ask for info it'd better to open a new thread rather than bumping a five month extinct one ???

Did you find the solution to making 6 of them work together by yourself or what? If yes, it'd be appreciated to create a thread and say how you did it.

The H97 works with 6XR9 nano or R9 390 with Win 8.1.

WOW! Did you try Win 10? You can still get it free since you own Win 7 and 8. They still give it away for free if you do it right.

http://www.zdnet.com/article/heres-how-you-can-still-get-a-free-windows-10-upgrade/

I run Win 10 Home on a 6 R9 390 OC Nitro+ rig with ZERO ISSUES and MAX HASH.
