this driver s..t is killing me...

i had 3x6950 and 3x6970

now i have 1x7970 and 5x6970, and i want them to work in one rig... the psu is not a problem cause all cards are undervolted...

so what do i do?

i tried using 11.12 with 7970 support + sdk 2.6.. but some how only four cards are mineble... the rest two is detected in gpu-z, but i cant mine on them... and in msi afterburner all the frequencies equels zero(for those two cards)...

as i understand only 11.12 can support six cards?

can anybody help me... im stuck.. and dont know what to do((

32 bits? Only 4 devices will work on 32 bit operating systems. If not, then increase your PCI latency to 64 or something like that I've heard it said...

You might want to consider putting the 7970 into a separate machine.   From what I have read, the drivers that are optimal for the 6XXXX series cards are different that what is best practice on 7XXX series cards, especially the 7970.   Just a thought.

^^ This.

5xxx and 6xxx don't play nice with 7xxx.  If you plan on using any 7xxx card, make a dedicated miner strictly with them.

I ran 6970s fine with 7970s, albeit on linux.

That is the key statement, Linux.   In a Windows I did a bunch of research and it seems to point to issues between the jump to the 7XXX series.

Hope that helps, time to whip out BAMT.
