1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Risers on: March 25, 2018, 11:38:03 PM
Couple of people recommended me that i should use the VGA cable i have 4 VGA cables with 6+2 and 6+2 on one string so with the first 6+2 i powered the GPU and then with the second one i powered the riser of course i bought extenders 6pin to 6pin what do you think about that ?

Hi i have Sapphire Nitro+ Rx 580 8GB when i was modding the bios i only copy 1:1750 to 1:2000  but then i was looking on some blog and they were saying that i should copy 2:1750 to 2:2000 also and after that i watched one video on YT and the guy only copy 2:1750 to 2:2000 . So which way is right ?
BTW i have 5xSamsung Memory and 1xMicron

Hi iam using Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB and i have Memory to max 2250 and iam getting a lot of memory errors but the system is stable so is that a problem ?

If you would like to mine Ethereum with special equipment the first investments of yours will reach the point to 1500-2000USD. If you haven’t so much money then the only way is mining through the pool.

i did not understand this

are you saying that i can do same MH/s for 2000 usd
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Molex on: December 28, 2017, 03:59:14 AM
Hi iam using Gigabyte GA-H110-D3A with 5 GPUs for now Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB iam waiting for one more, i was going to ask you about the molex  connectors on the motherboard what are they for and do i need to plug them in ?
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My 1st Ethereum Mining Rig on: December 27, 2017, 05:43:30 PM
Thank you just quick question when i try to overclock with MSI afterburner i was getting 30MH/s but when i was using wattman i got 31MH/s so can i overclock with wattman and undervolt with MSI Afterburner ?

How do you launch WattMan. On my system I sometimes get an error message from WattMan but I cant find how to launch an app itself.

I dont have any problems so far but i click on desktop sceen right click AMD radeon settings then gaming them global setting and global wattman

Hi this is my first mining rig that i build so i just want to ask you guys what do you think about my rig. Iam planing to build one more with 8 GPUs if i can find the same one Cheesy
Iam using Windows 10 PRO 64 bit and Iam mining on Claymore miner on ethmine.org pool. I was thinking to switch to Simple Miner but so far everything is good so i will keep mining on Windows. The only problem that i had during this build was the faulty Riser.
So here is some pictures from my rig and my config on the pictures you will see only 5 GPU that is because i had some problem with the seller. But i ordered one more and it one the way should be here in like one or two days Cheesy






So this is what i have
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H110-D3A
CPU: Intel Celeron C3900
RAM: PNY Anarchy X 8GB
SSD: Kingston 120GB
PSU: EVGA 1000 GQ
PSU2: EVGA 650 GQ
GPU: 5x(for now) Sapphire NITRO+ RX 580 8GB (Samsung Memmory)

I modded the bios setting for this cards and here is my overclocking



The temperature is around 50C with fan speed around 70%


And my Hash Rate is around 31MH/s



My Power consumption is around 820KW/h on this picture is around 840KW/h because i hooked up my monitor on the same plug


So is there anything that i can change to improve .
PS Iam using Wireless adapter

Hi, very nice first post!

Your next mission is to learn about undervolting

Have a look at MSI Afterburner and/or OverdriveNTool

Smiley

Thank you just quick question when i try to overclock with MSI afterburner i was getting 30MH/s but when i was using wattman i got 31MH/s so can i overclock with wattman and undervolt with MSI Afterburner ?

Looking really good!

Here are few questions.
Have you flashed any of your cards?
What drivers are you using? AMD Crimson block chain or regular newest drivers? As with the same card on my system I cant reach the speeds close to yours using regular non block chain drivers.
Did you work on specific windows settings?

Yes i flashed all of them i copy timing from 1:1750 and paste it on 1:2000

Here is the driver that iam using


And i used this to tweak my windows https://mega.nz/#!8gZzjQaa!Dt4wE0WEo8nZkui_-cAAXL4mb4YlO6CJgFZTXKq9pnQ

and also i increased my Virtual Memory
INCREASE VIRTUAL MEMORY
In search type “This PC“, right click on it and choose “Properties“
Then click on “Advanced System Settings“
On “Advanced” tab where it says “Performance” click on “Settings“
Click “Advanced” tab
At the bottom you will see “Virtual memory“, click on “Change“
1. Uncheck “Automatically manage paging file size for all drives“
2. Check “Custom size“
3. In the “Initial size (MB)” type: 16000 (or directly 16000)
4. In the “Maximum size (MB)” type: 20000 (or more like 20k)
5. Click “Set” , then “OK” and “Apply“
Restart the rig

Do your gpus show any memory errors? Try to check using HWiNFO64 app.

What were the steps you were following when flashing gpus? Did you first save the bios of individual card and then modded it again individually or saved a single card bios and then flashed the other cards? I got a problem where I have used a bios of a single card and flashed over the other cards and some cards are throwing out many errors.

I was doing 1 card at a time and i modded every bios one by one. I didnt not use one bios for all of them i modded all the bioses .
Yes i have a lot of memory errors around around 250 000 in 24 Hours but my system never crashed

free advise: plug your cable, do not use Wireless adapter.

I read a lot of posts about that i will change it iam testing everything right now so that is why iam using Wireless i still need to undervolt my GPU but when everything is good i will make some space for my rig and plug a cable

Good and welcome to mining community :v

so, why you say Ethereum Mining Rig?
You only mining Ethereum with 121 TH/s Net Hash?
haha, why you forget others altcoin?

Well iam mining only Ethereum,iam new to this but maybe i will switch later on to mine something else and i think that ETH price will go up in the future iam not looking in selling it now
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My 1st Ethereum Mining Rig on: December 27, 2017, 03:42:20 PM
what coin do you mine? Ethereum? What is your profit and hashrate?

Yes i mine Ethereum and my hashrate is around 31 MH/s per card iam only mining like 3 days
Here is my Estimated Earnings from ethmine.org

This is with 5 GPUs
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My 1st Ethereum Mining Rig on: December 27, 2017, 03:27:17 AM
No i used SSD cause it is much faster then HDD because when i was building this i restarted my rig a lot of times and i didnt want to waste my time waiting for my Windows and all programs to boot but you can use HDD its up to you. I forgot to mention that SSD is using less power then HDD because there is no moving part inside.

For the power usage i dont know because i will need to take all the GPU to measure that.

And with the last question are you asking me for PCI Risers
Here is the link from PCI Risers https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073LNKTBD/ref=as_li_ss_tl?tag=buriedone-20&ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&linkId=0a10c1123b37e255d16afc6d740830d7

If this is not what you was asking can you explain because English is not my 1st language
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My 1st Ethereum Mining Rig on: December 27, 2017, 01:11:47 AM
Yes i build it myself

Well i wasnt sure about the second PSU i bought only 1 from 1000W but then i was reading on the internet and they were saying that is better to go with 2 PSU because the power consumption is decreasing by 5% and your PSU can live longer but here is the price

GPU 6x370 = 2220
SSD 60
PSU 160
PSU2 82
RAM 70
CPU 40
RISER 60
MOTHERBOARD 84

There is only 5 GPU for now but iam waiting for 1 more
