Title: Memory errors on unmodded GPUs Post by: jajamelony on August 04, 2017, 10:51:29 PM Hey All,
I'm a bit puzzled here. I have a rig with 7 cards on an ASUS PRIME Z270-A. Motherboard is powered by 850W PSU with 2 cards and 5 cards are on an 1300W. All are powered via MOLEX risers from the main PSU. Recently the last card I added (MSI Gaming X RX-580 8gb) to the system started generating millions of GPU memory errors. Initially I thought it was because of it having modified ROM but I took the card to another rig that only has two cards installed and it performs in there flawlessly, ZERO errors for more than 24 hours. I then added a brand new Sapphire Nitro RX 580 8gb *unmodified* straight out of the box to the original rig and still got errors, in the millions. I then tried an MSI Armor RX-580 8gb, both modified and unmodified. Same thing, million of errors. I replaced the riser, cables, swapped the molex power around, re-seated the risers on the motherboard, replaced the motherboard riser. Same result... I then DDU all the drivers, reinstalled brand new ones, still same issue. Millions of errors on every card I add, modified or not. The remaining 6 cards which all have modded ROMS do not generate any errors (maybe one card does like a 100 errors in 24 hours). So what could be reason for this? jaja Title: Re: Memory errors on unmodded GPUs Post by: Vann on August 04, 2017, 11:23:24 PM Memory errors are generally from overclocking the memory too much. Try reducing the memory clock by 50 MHz on the card producing errors and see if it helps.
