Title: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: qosmio on February 08, 2014, 07:55:10 PM I just got 1 new r9 280x and asus mb 87z and driver from cd installed ok and win7 32bit device manager see card as amd radeon r9 200 series but cg miner cannot see it. I searched and read up a lot but cannot find answer, please help with ideas, thank you.
Title: Re: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: Wusolini on February 08, 2014, 08:29:47 PM try an older version of cgminer (eg. 3.7.2) i think newer ones does not support GPU mining
Title: Re: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: qosmio on February 08, 2014, 08:42:04 PM thank you I changed primary display in bios to auto and had to connect monitor to r9 280x card and then started cgminer 3.7.5 and it is mining now with 520 mhash/s and it is pretty hot with 78 degrees celsius

I saw lots of complaints about overheating these cards ... most of suggestions was to undervoltage it Title: Re: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: qosmio on February 08, 2014, 09:02:10 PM it is a msi twin frozr gaming radeon r9 280x 3gb ddr5 also it says r9 280x gaming 3g from tigerdirect for 399usd

Just a friendly reminder, you could get way better result if you mine scrypt coins and sell them for bitcoin... Title: Re: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: qosmio on February 09, 2014, 10:03:37 PM for bitcoin I mine with asics with about 250gh/s, no I try multipool scrypt address : stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:7777
and it only works if I have monitor connected to r9 280 and selected in bios as primary, as soon I select motherboard internal vga for monitor, miner cannot find msi card. I would like to connect monitor on onboard graphics and still be able to mine scrypt. pse help with ideas, tnx Title: Re: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: Wusolini on February 11, 2014, 06:42:32 PM for bitcoin I mine with asics with about 250gh/s, no I try multipool scrypt address : stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:7777 and it only works if I have monitor connected to r9 280 and selected in bios as primary, as soon I select motherboard internal vga for monitor, miner cannot find msi card.

VGA. or use'dummy plug' .. http://www.overclock.net/t/384733/the-30-second-dummy-plug ... but its bit complex Title: Re: cgminer not see my r9 280x Post by: qosmio on February 11, 2014, 08:31:30 PM thank you I also found a more simpler way only 1 resistor 75 ohm here:
