Hello, I have a Asrock h110 pro btc+ with 8 AMD GPUs. Im using 6 RX580 and 3 RX5700. The problem I have is that they are not detected by RaveOS or the BIOS. It cannot be the risers because they cannot all be broken. I only get 1 GPU to register when I only connect only one. I tried connecting 2 GPUs and does not work. Only when I connect one. I also tried connecting all of them, and none of them work. Things I tried. -Updated BIOS -Enable 4G encode. -Set PCIe support to Auto, Gen1, Gen2 -Enable/Disabled onboard graphics. -Preferred Legacy boot mode -Disable virtualization. Here is some pictures of how they are connected and how it shows up on the BIOS. Thanks https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1D7BsnPlTva9fi6LkuZJ7IMiP_ZyosDaZ?usp=sharingare you using 2 psu? and if thats the case try using same psu & molex riser, dont mix it, try using windows first for backup, time is running my friend, each day you losing some profit, better to buy other motherboard rather than pain trying to troubleshout the hardware,

I want to relocate my mining rigs to my uncle's house who has free electricity and the only thing that is stopping me is how will they power up after power loss. My uncle doesn't stay at the place. Is there something that can be done in the BIOS ? I remember there was a option in my desktop to power up after power loss or something like that .
yes you can setup on power setting at bios, but if the rig freeze or after start up causing the problem, i think u should buy rig resetter, for easy implement, but in more advance if you want to learn something more, you can use raspberry pi and using php+phyton+relay simple coding for remote multirig

at this current moment bitcoin hashrate already 44tw/year(its assuming using most efficient antminer s19pro) its passing some electric country, imagine if btc pas 100k, and many ppl deploy asic, ppl getting crazy & fomo-ing in delusion state, sure bitcoin mining will cosume more than entire U.S.. and its just bitcoin only, doesnt count on altcoin mining lol

Hello. I'm from Portugal, if that matters.
So, here's the thing. I have 2 Bitmain S9 miners in my basement. Right now, I can only turn them on at night, mainly due to the heat they make and the noise also.
I have about 3500€ available to spend on a rig. I'm looking at one with 6 RX 580 Sapphire 8GB Nitro and the price is 3500€ and I'm looking at a 1660 rig with 6 cards, just a bit more expensive at 3700€.
Electricity is free so no worries about that. What I'm concerned is what's going to happen in July and the fact that POW is going to end.
From my calculations, it seems I should hit ROI on the rig in about 7-8 months. Not in time for July.
So, questions... Is this worth? What will miners turn to once POW is over? RavenCoin? Will the profits be about the same, less or more? I know it's always speculation but there should be consensus here about that.
Another thing, I use Nicehash. Using that, should I even be worried? I mean, doesn't NiceHash mine whatever coin is more profitable with the hardware you have?
And last but not least... Do these rigs make a great amount of heat and noise? I don't mind having a fan or two pointed at the rig, but it cannot be as loud as the S9's, otherwise it's not really worth it.
Thanks and sorry for the n00b questions.
Basically eth only halving the rewards from burnerd the fee on july, and pow still continue until eth 2.0 pos fully implemented and run without problem, beside mining eth, you can mine other coins,at this very moment when gpu already 2x msrp, i think better to buy newer gpu which is better hashrate on other algo, and future proof

Hi Guys, am still building my first mining RIG just wondering i got 1 of these currently and ordering some more from DIFFERENT BRAND (gpuminers.com) but my question regarding this: https://www.amazon.ae/gp/product/B08NTLGCVH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1I think i will run out of PSU cables and ports to power all 5x risers and 3x 3060 Ti(s) + 2x 3070, So is it safe and fine to run this riser with the included sata port coz i got PLENTY of those... what should i do since i got only 8x PCI-E Headers available and i JUST bought this PSU today (silverstone 1200w) and i really like it any advise appreciated... First you need 2 pcie power splitter and the 009s riser is good, they had 2 led indicator 12v and 3.3v, keep in mind power splitter only max for 200w, and put on psu biggest cable, above 200w you got burned the cable, either you splitter or pcie psu

Hi
I want to add a second graphic card to my pc to mine ethereum. I have already a pc with Gtx 1060 6gb sc that i use for mining and i want to add another gtx 1060 6gb.
So my question is about my psu, i have a Aero cool 650wat, how do i calculate how many graphic card i can use depending on my power.
My second question is about graphic card choice, is it ok to use another range like gtx 1070 ti ? If so should one miner per graphic card or one to handle them both ?
I use PhoenixMiner and Gminer (i alternate to test them xD)
Thank you in advance for your time to respond me.
Yes you can, even running 3gpus still doable but not good for long term health of your psu, best advice is using only 50% of psu capacity and thats the peak efficiency for psu

I'm doing some clean up on my rigs today and I notice some liquids coming from my gpus, like 5 of them like water stuff pour on them, but the cards are working fine but still that liquid doesn't look good at all, what could cause this?
well thats was strange either capacitor leak or bad thermal pad which is most likely didnt happen, the bad thing is if the liquid going under pcb it will causing electronic faillure if the liquid really conductor or has lower ohms

120v or 240v better for mining? I mean country frequency, leaving a country like US that use 120v 60hz to another country that use 240v 50hz doesn't this impact mining in any ways?
no impact at all, the psu will automatically adjust the input 90v-240v, so basically lower the voltage will suck more ampere which is the cable need bigger on lower voltage only price kwh affected on miner

So many 3GB and 4GB GPUs can't mine Ethereum anymore due to this arbitrary and bullshit DAG file thing.
There is a simple solution. Just reduce it! Just clip off the first 2GB of the file that probably just sits there unused, filling your ram chips with unneeded data.
Let's get it done, Ethereum managers! I see no good reason why the file needs to be so damn big. To block ASICs, okay, but you don't need 4 damn GB to do that!!!
why do you think that way, this dag size help miner profit in good way, and keeping older card to retire, the good old days has came to pass, and keeping asic away from the network imagine if they not implement this, the miner will be disastrous flooding many rigs

try on ethermine, and wait for 12hrs, as your statistic is a bit weird even the average hashrate still normal, and check hwinfo for memory error, your memory config hit 2100 is realy high for polaris, better check memory error first then try other pool

well dont expected this, many miner who use msi afterburner will really helpful with your share, gladly i dont use msi afterburner again, odnt might be alternative for time being
many thanks ..... appreciated

lol dont expected mining on console if pirated games still dont exist, even homebrew cant run on newer console, it just wild theory some ppl expected alternative cheap console compared buying gpu, you got entire rig same as gpu price lol

I just built my rig. I am new to all of this. This is my parts list: ASUS Prime Z390-P LGA 1151, Intel Core i5-8400, 2xCrucial RAM 16GB DDR4 2666 MHz CL19, 1xSabrent 256GB ROCKET NVMe PCIe M.2 2280, 1xEVGA Supernova 1600 G+, 80+ Gold 1600W PSU and Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU cooler.
Everything was put together and booted up on the first try. My CPU has a IGPU, the UHD 630, and that's what I am using to get my display from. I then started to add the GPU's one by one.(each time I added a GPU I turned off the system first) Yes they are on risers. Doing it one by one I was able to get 4xGPU's on risers to work without any trouble, the whole time my display coming from the CPU IGPU. When I go to add the fifth GPU, the screen goes all fuzzy gray except for a couple of slits of proper display where I can see that it has booted up in the bios. If I try to connect my display to one of the GPU's that was connected prior to the fifth one being added I do not get any video. Since the screen goes fuzzy gray when it's connected to the IGPU, I cannot tell why it has loaded into the bios.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. This is my first time so I did not change any of the bios settings before installing anything and I didn't do anything to Windows either except for the basic things like not needing a password and not going to sleep etc. All of my GPU's are Nvidia and range from a 1070 TI, 20's series and 30's series.
Thanks for all the help in advance!
Edit: This was solved!
well this usually happen on most of motherboard, sometimes cannot pass 5 gpus on msi , sometimes 6 gpus, use dedicated mining motherboard less hasle, easy to deploy compared ordinary mobo you will face unusual problem along the way

Hi! Yesterday I read about mining and saw nicehash. Downloaded and tried it on my GTX 1080. Got around 36 Mh/s (140w) with the pill. Looking ok. Then I thought is it not better to focus on an altcoin? I just found ravencoin and decided to mine ravencoin for a bit. With unMineable I got around 26Mh/s (95w) and because I am totally new and have no idea what I am doing, my question is; should I just use nicehash and let it do it's thing or is there any advantage to focus on a specific coin? Thanks all, and if you have a guide somewhere where I can easily understand what I am doing that would be swell my advice use manual on pool with specific coin ath biggest profit on gtx 1080, dont use nicehash they converted to btc instead you holding the coin and free to sell anytime gtx 1080 is pretty decent card had gddr5x and ethpill should increased further, 1080 ti 50mhs+

I have been using ethminer for AMD 6800-6900 cards about 3 weeks. I use it because it is free and as far as I understand it performs well. However, I am still not sure, I might be missing something. I could not find as many resources as other miners. what is your opinion? Can you tell if you have experience? I guess nfsminer replaces ethminer. But the question linked here remained unanswered, it got me thinking.....? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5319314.msg56497428#msg56497428ethminer is the first miner for ethereum and basicaly is good enough for standar hashrate and mostly used by proxy mostly used before closed source come up, heavly used around 2015-2016 early days

while rx 5700 has similiar hashrate with vega series, but more efficient nice on bear market, at this point we need cheap gpus with big number, and rx 6700 similiar bandwith with rtx 3060 only 10% faster, expected 10% faster compared rx5700 which is no interesting in expensive value at 479$ while fancy infinite memory dont utilize well in current miner

Anyone have any experience whith this mobo ? Any tips or advice very welcome.
I think it is one of the newer series of this line and has 12 full size GPU slots, so no risers ... phew !! I want to use it with a G4930 Celeron 3.2 Ghz CPU LGA1151, 8GB ram and a 64GB SSD for mining Eth with Ethos. ATX PSU 2400W
total cost excluding GPUS is 440 USD, or 555 with a metal casing.
I am thinking of getting 20 units of the above without the case, as it adds weight and volume to shipping. I can make some wooden rigs like I have previously and they work just fine.
I have lots of 1060, 1070 and RX580 cards, and as I said before, have been mining wth wooden, home made rigs using MSI boards and risers since 2018, but I keep getting crashes of increasing frequency and the risers and their quality is driving me crazy with a lot of fiddle factor... so I have decided to invest a bit of my mining eanings into a, hopefully, simpler setup with full length PCIE slots and newer hardware. I though about newer GPUS but the cost is a lot, and my old ones seem fine for now. I dont want to invest that much.
I am also hoping to mine on solar power a bit to reduce my energy costs during the day, and the environmental footprint, and use the waste heat to power a commercial dessicator to dry fruit and veg.
any thoughts welcome.
and there is already included celeron cpu soldered to the board and using sodim ram memory, with full-fledge pcie express and this for server case and recomend using blower type gpu, is quite expensive compared other dedicated pcie 1x slot with riser, and most of these board from chinese

Just wondering is it still worth investing 10k$ in graphics cards and mine on the long run or is mining dead with ETH new announcement ...
Thanks,
mining dead if btc dead, there will be coin to mine, crypto without mining, like human without soul, and mining is for base price the coin itself, like gold dont worry 10k$ investment on gpu it wont go away like buying coin, you cannot be scammed on real things lol

I recently had a 1070 fail. One of the fans stopped and it wouldn't produce video. Tried to clean the fans following an online video.
Unfortunately that didn't help at all.
BUT IT WAS SO DAMN STRESSFUL PULLING APART.
Thermal pads tearing, exact spacing required unknown, dangers to circuit boards, and slips all contribute to fear of ruining a video card.
Does anyone know a service that does card rehab? Replace all the pads and fans?
Edit - My location is California US.
replacing fans is hard in mycountry, i need to order via aliexpress and wait for 2 weeks, so i bought the fan at bulk, just some case needed for the future the other things teardown and cleaning is easy, just to lazy do this sometimes, for gpu died i use 2 method : first using steam solder to re-hot the card and most likely it fix some broken gpus, the other method is using detergent to cleanup the board , if the gpus stil died i send to gpus service for the last hope as a miner you need buy some tool for gpus/rig maintenance - steam solder - iron solder - blower for cleaning - wattmeter - screwdriver kit - portable monitor

I've seen a lot of people promoting this nonsense (game/app) it's supposed to give you "free crypto" by just logging in everyday "like money grows on the trees" from what I have see it looks like a pyramid scheme and we know who always wins in pyramid schemes people who sit on the top of the chain not us peasants..
its just coin not money, everyone can create virtual coin, the market decide is this coin worth for trade some money or otherwise, think separately coin or money are different things ppl always joining that nothing to lose, as long they made some bucks from it, either scam or not
