Bump.

I would think you wouldn't need powered risers for the x16 slots
I have a board with 4 x16 slots, and have been using unpowered risers for them for over a month now with no issues. (3x r9 280x power hogs)
I figure if the board was designed to power that many vid cards, there isn't a need for powered risers.

now for the x4 and x1, definitely use powered, I don't think the mobo can push enough power to those slots to power the cards properly..
but that is just my experience, i'm sure someone who knows better will be along to help out more.

Thanks for the reply. I'll make sure to use powered risers for the x1 and x4.

Like I said though, the powered x1 to x16 type are the cheapest I can get by quite a bit. Can I use these in the x16 and x4 slots with no issue?

I have a motherboard with the following PCI-E slot combination: x16, x16, x4, x1.

For scrypt mining, is there any problem in using powered x1 to x16 risers in all of these slots with 4 cards? These seem to be the cheapest riser types available to me.

Has there been any solution or known cause for the CGMiner disconnect and hang issue?

6  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Cgminer stratum disconnect hang issue on: January 05, 2014, 03:12:23 PM
I understand 3.7.2 is the latest version that includes scrypt mining?

I've also tried 3.5.1 and 3.1.1, none of which seem to stop the issue. It's happening on multiple pools as well.


EDIT: I'm now using CGWatcher to restart the miner when the hang occurs. However, when it is restarted my voltages seem to reset. It kept the clock settings this time though and resumed mining at the expected hash rate.

It might also be relevant that when the new miner process appears, the temp and fan rpm monitor in CGMiner are missing.

Hi,

I'm having an issue with Cgminer where the stratum connection to the pool is reported as being interrupted and subsequently disconnected. The program then hangs at that point until I manually restart the miner (12 hours in the last case).

It also seems to be somehow disrupting my Afterburner config as the clocks mess up and voltages sometimes reset when the hang occurs. Temps are not an issue.

Set up:
Win 8.1 64 bit
Cgminer 3.7.2

MSI Afterburner 2.3.1
2x R9 280x - both set to 1080/1500 @ 1.125v using Afterburner

Cgminer screenshot:


AB log showing clocks disruption on 2nd GPU at same time as hang:


Is this a known issue and are there any solution? I'd like to avoid CGWatcher if possible as it also likes to mess with my AB config.


Thanks!
