Title: Fury card suddenly gets 8MH/s when monitor is plugged in to Nvidia GPU
Post by: nu1mlock on May 06, 2017, 05:36:03 PM
Hello,

I've got a Sapphire Nitro R9 Fury and a GTX 1080 in my PC. Everything was working just fine until yesterday. Suddenly the Fury goes from 31MH/s down to 8MH/s - but only if my monitor is plugged in to the GTX 1080. If I plug the monitor into the Fury, it goes back to 31MH/s.

I haven't changed anything, same drivers, same Windows, same everything.

Got Windows 10 Home 64bit, i5-6600K, 16GB RAM, 16.5GB swap file. Using 17.4.3 drivers for the Fury and 382.05 for the Nvidia card. Like I said, nothing has changed since the sudden lower hash rate.

Any ideas?

Edit: I've tried Claymore's ETH miner 9.2 and 9.3 with the same results.

Edit 2: I was too quick to write, I guess. I solved it by plugging in another monitor to the Fury card. However, I did not have this monitor plugged in previously, which makes it weird anyway.

You might need some dummy plugs. Didn't know this was still an issue for AMD.

It can be worked around using Afterburner and it's "ULPS" override setting - usually.
