Title: Anyone using GIGABYTE GA-X58A-xxx with RTX 3060 for ETH? Post by: miniero on May 06, 2021, 11:28:58 AM Hello,
I have a GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R Mobo, and EVGA RTX 3060s, trying to get that run on that board. Windows 10.64 with Gameready 470.05 drivers installed, and monitor attached to HDMI of that card. But hashrate droppes immediately after starting the miner - tested one card in all of the four PCI-E-Slots (two of them claim to be x16, the other two x8). No success. Am I missing something? Is anybody using this board, probably with 4 RTX 3060s? Thanks for help! Title: Re: Anyone using GIGABYTE GA-X58A-xxx with RTX 3060 for ETH? Post by: miner29 on May 06, 2021, 01:02:32 PM You will have to enable the x16 mode in bios for the slots PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX16_2.
If you populate the other two long slots then all will need to be set to x8 operation. See note 3 page 12 of the manual. You will need to run the dev mod driver under windows 470.05 from March. Please note starting mid may 3060 produced after then will not work with the older uncapped driver. Cards direct in slots and you should get full hashing.

I use 469 drivers for my 3070 and 1070, not sure if the newer ones are an issue. Im using X58A UD5 didnt have to change any bios but Im guessing thats an AMD board. Maybe is different.

I use 469 drivers for my 3070 and 1070, not sure if the newer ones are an issue. He is using 3060...meaning to get full and not 1/2 hash he can only run the 470.05 driver or the card will only do under 25mhs...with 470.05 dev driver it will do 50mhs. This problem is unique to 3060..but soon coming to all nvidia mainstream gpu per nvidia. Title: Re: Anyone using GIGABYTE GA-X58A-xxx with RTX 3060 for ETH? Post by: miniero on May 06, 2021, 02:59:18 PM Some people reporting PCI-E V2.0 is not working, but PCI-E V3.0 is. My board is rather old, running V2.0, so this could be the problem. Can anybody confirm?

https://i.postimg.cc/vZzcSqZ4/16x16x.jpg I ask because it can be the solution to your problem if you are using traditional USB risers. Have you tried one of them connected directly to the 16x slot?

Make sure you are running the dev drivers which are no long available on Nvidia's site. Also try updating the bios on the motherboard if there's a newer bios out.
