I posted a picture in another thread.. I learned that the hard way.. ^ The poster above is correct

^ you should take that card apart and clean it and apply new thermal paste.
I run 4x cards per board all very close to each other and try to keep things under 80'C
|
|
|
This is very interesting. I hope everything works out for the better.
|
|
|
Yeah I would be happy if my cards would stay around 70'C
Usually closer to 80'C I would start worrying if you start hitting 90'C and above

The second rev 1.1 board that gave me problems did the same thing.. It ran 4 cards fine for a while... Crashed and only 2 cards would show up. After using the 2 cards on this bad board the entire thing died and would not post...
It gave me Error code 2E on the LED.

I have a few of these.. I have noticed only my revision 1.1 boards have started to give me issues.
My other rev 1.3 boards are fine. Have been mining strong for months...
The boards have been mining for well over a year...
Has anyone had any issues with their rev 1.1 boards?
No my GPU's are not MSI.. I may have a couple MSI 5850/5870's in the mix but mostly sapphire.

OMG dude! You are owed some SERIOUS money... I really really hope we all get paid and this is just some anecdote to remember. You are completely right in the opting-in thing...
We'll see what happens in the next few days. Probably nothing says my negative/realistic self.
You're owed a fair share too

I agree ^.. Drilling a small hole is a very easy fix.... Really easy to add more oil as needed.
|
|
|
Yeah I am not very fond of separating the fan as shown above....
|
|
|
^ for serious? Damn, I am soo in.
|
|
|
That's pretty sweet.^
All my 5830's are sapphire xtreme versions and they don't overclock very well IMO..
|
|
|
I run one at 1080mhz..
all 6 of my 5830's have a max overclock of around 940-950

a lot of places will not ship to Canada or charge an arm and a leg to ship to Canada. I ordered some through Amazon and made an arrangement with a member. Thanks

Yup.. got a new board works perfect... 2 days later another identical board did the exact same thing running different hardware.....
They sent me out another replacement board I should receive it tomorrow.
I think it has something to do with not enough power going to the PCI-E lanes.. MSI wont give me any straight answers but in their defense they do have very good "FAST" customer service... ( it does help that I live about 3 hours away from their Canadian service center.

I can get more mhash out of a 6870 vs a 5830.... I can also achieve higher, more stable overclocks..... The way I run things anyway..
