i think their claims (5W) are valid regarding the 006 but not 006c afaik the 006c has the switching voltage regulator (12v to 3.3v) which already is a 5W difference to the heat dissapating 006 regulator model.
their description may be bit misleading in that regard
I don't think that is correct. For one if you measure the outer pins of the USB connector coming from the motherboard PCI-E slot connector with a multimeter while the motherboard is on you will see there is 3.3V coming from the motherboard PCI-E slot through the USB cable to the riser. If you look at the traces on the back of the v006C/008C riser PCB you will see the USB outer pins are connected to the PCI-E slot on the riser, so there is no need for the riser to produce 3.3V when it's coming directly from the motherboard through the USB cable.

If you want to mine ETH to cash out in to fiat and are in the US, you can use a GDAX (owned by Coinbase) ETH wallet address, trade the ETH to BTC, transfer the BTC to Coinbase for free and then sell the BTC for USD and transfer it to your bank account for a fee or get a Shift debit Visa card connected to your Coinbase wallet to spend the BTC with no fees.
GDAX has an ETH->USD exchange - why not just use that and skip the BTC middleman? That works if you want to transfer the USD to your bank account for a fee or don't want to risk BTC going down in value before you cash out. I have a Shift card connected to my Coinbase BTC wallet, so I can transfer BTC there if I want to cash out or buy something using BTC with no fees. https://support.coinbase.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2228646-the-shift-card

Set a lower clock speed, underclock and power limit in the Claymore bat/config e.g. -cclock 1150,1150,1150,1150,1150 -mclock 2000,2000,2000,1900,2000 -powlim -10,-10,-10,-13,-15,-5 -cvddc 950,925,925,900,950 -mvddc 950,925,925,900,950 or use OverdriveNtool to create profiles for your cards as explained on www.mining.help. Just for my knowledge why do you set different power limit for same cclock/mclock/cvddc/mvddc? Experience whith those card? The limits of how much a card can be overclocked/undervoted depends mostly on the ASIC quality, which varies even in cards of the model/brand. I start with standard values and adjust them based on each cards stability.

For the million and second time, the answer to your question that was understood perfectly and already answered is no. Nobody has run more than 13 non-mining cards because of a hardware limitation. In addition to all the posts and ASUS manual which say you can't, both before/after the Bios update, common sense should tell you that is the reason nobody has posted otherwise .

If you bothered using the search instead of asking the same question that's been answered a million and one times, you would have seen nothing has changed regarding the REQUIREMENT of P106 mining cards for more than 13 cards. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2605418.0

It's already been asked a million times, you can't. Because of a limitation of the motherboard, you need P106 mining cards for more than 13 cards on both Windows and Linux.

If you dual mine, I would go with an EVGA 1200 W G2/P2. That will give you ~25% overhead from the rated power.

Is there a reason you are buying 2400 MHz DDR4 when you're CPU only supports 2133 MHz?
Probably missed this one. Didn't know CPU's had issues with Ram compatibility. Both Pentium and i5 support 2133Mhz? Anyway that's not a big fuck up. Ram will work at 2133Mhz mode then. That would depend on the motherboard if it can down clock the RAM to run at 2133 MHz. Typically the faster memory speeds are only supported by the higher end processors, like the i3-i7. Buying faster RAM than you're CPU supports can cause compatibility issues. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2730770.msg27954939#msg27954939

Is there a reason you are buying 2400 MHz DDR4 when you're CPU only supports 2133 MHz? You also need to upgrade your PSU, that POS PSU running under load 24/7 is not going to be up to the task. An EVGA G2 850 W for ~$150 would give you enough wattage and connections for up to 6 1060's.
I don't know why people have no problem overpaying by hundreds of USD for GPU's, but yet try to save a few bucks buying a POS PSU when the PSU is the most important component in your rig. If you're PSU goes out at best you're whole rig is down and at worst it can damage components.

The minimum deposit amount is 0.01 ETH and GDAX only charges 0.30% fee on the taker of the trade. Transfers from a GDAX wallet to a Coinbase wallet are free and instant. Cash back transactions with the Shift card and purchases are also free or you can do an ATM cash withdrawl for a $2 fee + the ATM fee.
You can also do the same with other coins if you exchange them to ETH/LTC/BCH and transfer them to GDAX. Different exchanges have different withdrawl fees, so you need to figure out which is the best pair to use when cashing out if you want to mininmize withdrawl fees.

Using for years without issue two PSU setup connection marked at Your drawings as "not correct". My opinion is opposite, of course: - I know for sure that there is no power connection between motherboard and riser. Therefore I can freely use different PSUs for motherboard and GPUs. - I don't know for sure is there power connection in GPU between it's PCI-e slot and PCI-e power connectors. So I don't mix PSUs to power riser and power connectors on single GPU.
You are wrong. I checked the outer pins on the USB cable that connects to the riser from the 1x PCI-E slot with a multiimeter. There was 3.3V coming from the motherboard. There is also a ground connection between the riser and the motherboard. I'm pretty sure the riser is creating that 3.3V from its power, if it's a newer riser, and if the usb has a ground in it going to the mobo, wouldn't that also ground the PSUs together? If you do a PSU on the gpu and a different PSU on the riser, you might have 12V rails fighting if they are not exactly the same and that could cause a fire, right? Here is an experienced engineer talking about this: https://forum.z.cash/t/the-facts-about-gpu-mining-electrical-specifications/19468It doesen't matter if the risers are newer or not. Instead of saying you think you're 'pretty sure', do what I did. While the motherboard is on, get a mulitimeter and measure the voltage on the outer pins of the USB connector coming from the motherboard that plugs in to the back of the riser. If you do that, you will see there is 3.3V coming from the motherboard through the USB cable connected to PCI-E slot. Which means that supposed 'electical enginner' saying there is NO power connection between the riser and the motherboard is false. There is 3.3V coming from the motherboard to the riser though the USB cable. This post explains why you need to power the risers from the same PSU that powers the motherboard, so the signal voltage and ground is set in refrence to the primary PSU which is also powering the PCI-E lanes on the motherboard. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=443540.msg4878774#msg4878774That is the suggestion I took and all of my dual/triple PSU rigs are setup up where all of the risers are connected to the primary PSU connected to the motherboard and I only use the secondary PSU's for VGA power inputs on the cards. I've been dual mining 24/7 for close to 10 months without any problems, so for me that is the best way to setup multiple PSU rigs.

I have a 6 rig setup consisting of all rx 470/40's. I can dual mine with blockchain beta and get 29mhs on each card. I recently bought a 4k tv and would like to game some. However, i tried several combinations of claymore and newer amd drivers. I setx and change the drive to computate. Only my display gpu gets 29 mhs. The rest are stuck around 20. They are all modded. Is there a fix for this? Thank you for your time.
About two hours ago (roughly when you wrote this) I was wondering the same thing, because I hadn't "hit" on a solution in about two hours, but at this point - starting about 90 minutes ago, things are back to the same rate of discovery I had during my first four or five hours. Mining rates are never truly uniform, so I'm going to just state that I think it's normal, part of getting started with a small, but growing group. I had two finds in the past 90 minutes and a third one appeared while I was writing this message (and right now I only have one GTX1060 pointed there). https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.msg30509473#msg30509473

You need to set each GPU to Compute mode in AMD settings.
