Hi guys....
I have (had
) 42 MSI rx 470
12 Sapphire Nitro+ 470
12 Sapphire reference 470 cards.
Latelly ... all off them started falling like leaves. I mean they either die or burn up.
6 msi - 3 sapphire nitro and 2 sapphire reference cards died all during past 3 weeks....
Anyone else have that many breakdowns lately?
I dont even know what to blame now. Bios mods... motherboards.... PSU or claymor v9
Sapphire reference cards all worked for 5 months with only 2 of them die before this nightmare....
Sapphire Nitro+ never broke for 5 months before this....
I recently purchased 30 MSI cards and 6 already dead in like 3 weeks.... they tend to bring out smoke while sapphire cards just die.
My rigs are 6xGPU all (used to be.... LOL) motherboards are BTC PRO and Z97 fatality.
PSU are Be quiet pro 2x 1200 and and Platimaxe's 1600.
I used to use -96 core woltage in afterburner.
I started thinking that might be the reason. But i changed it to 0 and 2 more cards died. SO im pretty much lost.
Any ideas are welcome.
Or maybe someone else has unusual high rate of failing cards recently?
thats is creepy... can someone confirm these die rates? maybe you have a bad setup of power distribution or yours psu are failing
i had one of my msi rx480 sparkle and burn in front of me when booting up my system after a power outage.
realized the pcie riser had some burn on it, it was a version 003. when running hwmonitor the voltage were spiking to like 500000 ! at first though it was a glitch but then i thrwe them all away and got new risers, v007 this time and hwmonitor reports normal voltage value, no more spiking to 500000+ .
So i would suggest double checking your pcie risers, they may be the faulty part causing that problem
You really were right, 2 "rise 003 version" burned, I have 2 "rise 006 version" is perfect.
4 x RX 480
