Title: mix install vega 56 and rx 570
Post by: kingadel on November 23, 2017, 12:07:28 PM
guys is there a way to mix install these cards ? i tried blockchain drivers. recent non chain drivers. even older 16.11 drivers.
Rx vega 56 is installed correctly and windows recognize rx 570 but there is a yellow triangle on it. I used update driver and it says there is problem installing the driver correctly.

i used ddu in safe mode to remove drivers.
Anyone tried this mix install ? Any success ?

After installing the driver try to use AMD/ATI Pixel Clock Patcher https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Thread-AMD-ATI-Pixel-Clock-Patcher

I'm running a 470, 480, 570 and vega 56 all on the same rig.  I just installed the blockchain driver.  Perhaps you have a riser problem.

Here is what I would do.

Wipe the drivers.  Install the vega.  Install the blockchain driver, then install the patch.  Reboot, make sure the vega is working properly. 

Install the 570, Install the blockchain driver, install the patch, reboot.

Windows + AMD + Blockchain driver is a real bitch. I had some 470 card that, when installed, would reduce the memory speed of the vega 56 to 300 or whatever the idle speed is. I had to give up on mixing those cards in the same rig. Works fine with 570/580/vega 56 mix. Best of luck... lol

I managed to make them work together. The problem was I moded Rx570 bios so reseting it to stock bios fixed the problem. However stock setting is around 22MH/s for Ethereum  doesnt even worth power consumption.
Anytime I mod the bios for better starps Windows doesnt recognize it.

You need to use AMD-ATI-Pixel-Clock-Patcher everytime you install new gpu or drivers.

Try this for modded RX series https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2068446.0

You can use 2 different driver for those cards.

OP seems gone, but I hope our discussion will be a reference for the other with the same problem with OP.
