I have a very strange issue with the motherboard ASROCK H110 BTC PRO + and AMD GPU's


They basically appear red in the PCIE discovery part of the BIOS, 
I have tried RX580's and VEGA 56 and VEGA 64,  yet Nvidia cards work fine.

I have tried 3 different motherboards and ram and CPU and PSu's and risers,  all have the same result.


anybody know whats going on? is this a known issue?

The cards work on a different PC i have .

So we setup a pool

PLEASE HELP US FIND OUT FIRST BLOCK!!!!  0 POOL FEE'S




thanks

yea looks good!

be sure to post pics of your build mate :-)

out of interest
Where are you getting the GPU from?

starlord,


are you in the UK?

why not just get a used m.2 and RAM from CEX , cheap and 2 years warrenty

CPU over priced,

dont need 8GB RAM

dont need extra CPU fan ,

why this motherboard ? for future expandtion maybe you want the BTC PRO +

1) boot with the 2 x MOLEX plugged into the motherboard and goto BIOS
2) turn off "power warning", save and shutdown
3) unplug 2 x MOLEX from motherbaord

4)  connect PCIE RISER direct to PSU
      Connect GPU directt to PSU

5) booot and mine

what happens when you mine with just 1 card,
then try mining with just card 2 ,
then try mining with just card 3
then try mining with just card 4

What are the hashrates?

IF they are all ok but when you mine them all at the same time you need a WATT monitor plugged into your kettle lead

like this https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1I64nKFXXXXbaXpXXq6xXFXXXn/2013-New-EU-Power-Meter-Watt-Voltage-Amp-Energy-Monitor-Analyzer-LCD-display-5pcs-lot.jpg

IF The one card still has issues, replace the risers, reinstall drivers, try again
if you still have issues try the card in another PC (it may be faulty)

if its ok in the PC again try the WATT monitor, your PSU may be using above its threshold.


basic torubleshooting here.

1. Outside of Windows Defender, should I be running an anti virus software?
No, just make sure the firewall is on and dont surf any dodgy sites / download anything dodgy
2. Are there any Bios Updates or tweaks for the MOBO?
is the the pro or pro plus (+) ?
3. WHat kind of tweaks can I use for the cards?
stick to overclocking with afterburner, your done .

Are the powers that be making it harder and harder to cash out?



In the past 2 weeks,

1) crptonator.com
"SEPA refunds Unfortunately, no SEPA euro withdrawals will be possible in the near future, as our partner Bitwala has shut down service. All euro withdrawals sent from Cryptonator wallet in the time frame from 25.12.2017 to 03.01.2017 will be refunded on the next week."

2) Xapo "
Dear Cardholder,
 
Yesterday, January 4th 2018, the Xapo Card issuer Wave Crest Holdings, Ltd. was instructed by Visa® to close all cards of its Visa® programs effective immediately.
 
Unfortunately, Xapo did not receive any anticipated notice to prepare for - and have our cardholders prepare for -  the cancellation of our Card program.
 
How does this change affect you?
 
Your Xapo Card has been deactivated"

beware the fakes

What GPU are you using ?
What overclock settings?

have you checked the logs?

How long have you set the switch-over

Are you sure? Picture/screenshot and timestamp to prove?

I wouldn't continue to mine if it let me , just in case.

https://www.reddit.com/r/NiceHash/comments/7hxxp3/hicehash_hacked/

shows various twiiter feeds all saying their balances = 0

rumours are nicehash hacked,

Evidence is on twitter people seeing 0 account balances and its all been move to another wallet , that walllet now has 59 million.....

any comments?

you can run two miner programs on the same rig

one for AMD
and one for NVIDIA

**BUMP** ANYONE ELSE?

After reading an article this morning on coindesk

https://www.coindesk.com/survey-plurality-of-bitcoin-users-think-it-can-change-world/

it got me thinking .........

Here is an interesting question.

Regardless of how many bitcoins you own (0.001 or 500) , what price would bitcoin have to hit in order for you to sell? or make you sell?

get everything back to factory defaults for testing


Drivers =   15.12 http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/amd-radeon-software-crimson-15-12-driver-download.html or  Block Chain Optimized

http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-Crimson-ReLive-Edition-Beta-for-[Suspicious link removed]pute-Release-Notes.aspx



 , Nothing else i would recommend.


Claymore  12.5 AMD GPU MINER.   USE THE -r option aswell to force reboot if there is an issue.

Are the gpu's overclocked?

first step would be set them back to factory.

I wouldn't recommend nicehash legacy.

use claymore and lower the intensity   ( -i 4,4,6,6,6,5,6 )

if the problem persists get a USB watchDOG and just set the miner to start on startup and live with it, it will just reboot when theres a problem and start mining , you wont miss much.
