Dial back the intensity and set your rig on something that can not catch fire. You could set it on tile with nothing near it. I set mine on a wood rack and then 4 tiles below it.

Did you change it to compute mode?

change settings in bios to 4g enabled, and change there spots that have gen setting to gen 2. there is like 4 places in the bios where you need to change it. Even after doing all of this you may still have to use pixel patcher, I do when I add new cards, I think it has to do with combining 570 and 580 cards together on same rig, because when its just one type of card everything is fine.

you need to find a way to get some better ventilation. some kind of fans etc

You can split as long as it is one riser and one card per pcie cable

As others have said try dropping core clock and and core voltage that will get the watts and power usage to the lowest point. Im currently at 1150 cclk and 850 core voltage

I agree with the first poster. I do not even go to safe mode. Just make sure windows does not automatically install drivers. And depending what cards you are using (AMD) you may have to run pixel patcher again to get windows device manager to notice the cards.

What are you talking about the 580 draws 14 amps on boot?
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining with 2 RX 480 4gb in 1 home PC case. anyone doing it? on: February 11, 2018, 10:35:35 PM
I have seen pictures of people who are doing it, they usually put an extra fan or two in the case to help with the heat, and they leave the side panel off.

Claymore crashes for me every day or day and a half. Bugger lil' program, ain't it?

Pain in the arse when I think of the electrical consumption when the program randomly crashes and I'm asleep or out.

Gotta have a life, but mining trying to take away from that.

Anyone know how to get alerted when Claymore stops working without any intricate coding of any sorts?


I cant remember if there is a way for claymore, double check the readme file but I do not thing you can. Although you can have your pool send you an email when your rig is down, atleast ethermine does.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Can I minning in Winx32 on: February 11, 2018, 05:06:10 PM
You can but only with certain graphics cards. For example, the AMD Rx 580/570 series cant be mined with the new drivers on windows 32 bit.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: M.2 slot on: February 11, 2018, 04:39:01 PM
Yes you just need an adapter.

13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ETH mining, steady decline in payouts on: February 11, 2018, 06:56:45 AM
As others have said this is normal as pool difficulty goes up. If your interested in learning more just google about ethers mining difficulty
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: RX 580 4Gb vs 8Gb on: February 11, 2018, 05:40:31 AM
As others have said there is not a huge difference between the 4Gb models and 8Gb. The Sapphire brands tend to reach 30-31 much easier than the other brands regardless of memory type in my experience.

The straps might be an issue but usually I have seen freezing has more to do the overclock settings.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Building a rig if power consumption is not an issue. on: February 10, 2018, 07:55:16 AM
It is not a good idea to mine with 1050 because you can only fit so many on one motherboard and then you have to buy all the components again. So it is not worth it if your are going to have multiple rigs.

Thanks for this nice tutorial.

I got a bunch of 570 (4gb and 8gb). I will check their memory brand. Would you recommend me keeping only samsung and return the rest?

My plan:
Using win 10
newest drivers from amd (compute mode)
Download bios from anorak (should I choose the powersave ones)?

What software would u recommend for tuning volt and OC? I will set fan to auto.


I recommend using OverdriveNtool. It is by far the best to me. And you can set it up to use a batch file to set your OC and underC/V settings on startup.

Pretty much what everyone said. Do no expect a perfect line for expected hashrate.

Hi Mattthev,

I bought and downloaded your PBE, but when i use it on my XFX 570 8GB RS XXX edition with Hynix memory. they stop working after the bios mod. You got any idea what i can try to solve this? I like the idea of your program, to get decent OC/undervolts etc without me messing around for days, and that's why i bought it.

They give an error 43 after the bios flash and they always do it untill i flip the switch to go mining bios and reflash the original back onto switch position 1.

I can provide you with an original bios file ofcourse if you want to take a look at it.

You need to use pixel patcher right after you flash your bios and before you restart your computer. It will fix the driver so you will no longer get error 43. Trust me, it is all you need to do.
