Title: Rig turn off when miner start
Post by: cbaa on October 07, 2018, 06:40:19 PM
Hi. I’m using ubuntu 18.04 lts, driver up to date. 16g ram I have 4 gpu: 1 amd rx 480 4g, 2 amd rx 480 8g and 1 gtx 1060 6g. I mine eth for about 2 years, using claymore. Until fews days, everything was perfect but now, when I start the miner, the rig turn off instant. I have try with etminer and same thing happen. Anyone have an idea of what if wrong?

Cards arent overdrive. Also checked the log of claymore, there is nothing inside. File is blank. PC turned off before creating dag ends

Is your power supply powerful enough and a good quality one?

Since your rig has been working for 2 years, try to unplug all cards but 1, does it mine now? if it does, plug in another one and keep on going until it crashes.
when the rig crashes at X cards take the newly added Card, put it away and remove all the cards in the rig, now take the card you just put away and put it in your rig, does it mine ? if not then it's the card, if the rig is mining with that card it might be that the PSU has lived it's life
