Anyone have RX 570 or 580?
AMD's newest driver only support 5 cards, BSOD on the 6th. I tried 6 470s same problem.
Have anyone had any luck getting 6 RX 570 or 580 working on Windows 10? I'm not sure if the older drivers will let me install.
i wonder the same. I tried 6x 570 no luck.... Also has anyone tried to mix 470 with 570 on same rig? or 480 with 580? ANy luck? I got 5 of them working with 17.4.3 drivers but.... 1 off them still has code 43. So i didnt even tried putting a 6th one... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimage.prntscr.com%2Fimage%2F4eb3432556854ef3b0f60ae1efb9c807.png&t=665&c=f1QZDFUHqC7elw) I got a 580 the other day running fine with my 2 480s just used the driver disk which has "driver ver: 13-09(win7/10 64bit)(17.10.1030)" on it did you mod the bios for those? cause i did. forgot to mention it. not moded i believe a mix of 470,480, 570, 580 would work. bigger question is how to get a mix of 6 cards running or 6 not mixed cards running while they are modded Also remember if you mod your bioses you may have problems with driver signature checking from AMD on later driver versions from 16.12 onwards. I use 16.11.5 or 16.6 to avoid these issues.

Not sure if it's part of the stability problems or not but my miner on my 4x470 rig keeps crashing. The EthDcrMiner64.exe keeps crashing, it's just the miner.
PC doesn't freeze etc.
Is this a bad card acting up or stability issues in 9.x?
Maybe something wrong with the riser? Its about time a branded company started making these. Reliable ones which can be trusted unlike the generic crap we see on amazon and ebay. I'm also interested to know the difference between the version 3 risers and version 7 risers. Does anybody know? It's claymore's thread so we should move the riser discussion elsewhere, but I'll say one more thing... What's in a number, seriously that is the question... Most of these come from three factories in China, as in three primary "lines' of similarly designed risers, and each has their own numbering system so it can be tough to make sure you get the right thing, especially if buying from ebay or Amazon... The running assumption in this thread is that the versions being discussed are all coming from the same place...

Hi guys.... I have (had ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) ) 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 https://ibb.co/hNTdJ5https://ibb.co/ewRXd5https://ibb.co/g64JJ5glad you caught the problem. all i can say is that's very dangerous and can cause fire hazard. I wasn't aware of that until it happened to me. Like someone else mentioned, it would be good to have a decent company make quality parts. And about the difference between v003 and v007, i don't know, only thing i can think of is maybe better electronic components on it to prevent issues. But now i have an other problem, i was stupid enough to attempt to upgrade radeon driver from 16.6 to 17.4.3 and that screwed my Win10 system completely. Doesn't boot anymore and can't even boot in safe mode. I so hate Radeon and their bad programmers. Anyway, was late last night and i have 5 rx480 sleeping at the moment, gonna have to fix that tonight after work. ;/

A bit off-topic but avoid MSI like the plague and make sure your RX cards have Samsung RAM only, exchage any Hynix RAM cards before its too late! I'm going on 3 weeks now waiting on MSI for RMA. 100% defect rate on 7 of their cards, even the one armor card had fan barrings go after a week.

I have had more than a dozen MSI gaming X 470+480. Not a single one failed, all except two were Hynix. On the other hand, out of a similar number of Sapphire Nitros, one failed (ball bearings, screeching sound and on another one fan was making noises, but card was working, so i just had it replaced).

Well I got a load of garbage cards from MSI, buyer beware. 32 bit mode got fried on two of the MSI cards while plugged directly into the pcie slot, so I know it's not the risers and other brands (gigabyte, sapphire & powercolor) all working fine.

Hi. Does anyone else get lower hashrates with v9.2? I get 173-174 Mh/s with v7.1. But only 168-169 with v9.2? I use the exact same config files?

Well , I'm not sure if having a screen plugged in on you onboard VGA have anything to do with bad hashing, I'm running Win 10 pro with monitor on my onboard VGA and mining on 2 X RX480 8Gb, it does not make a difference when I unplug it..
Does anyone ells think it's better to have no screen attached?

I am running Win 10 Creators Edition (1703). Have a monitor connected to HDMI and use the computer as my main computer. Hardly anything affects hashing rate. Watching a video affects it slightly. The only thing that stops hashing is running Photoshop as it takes over the card to use to speed up the editing. This computer has one RX 470 in it. Other rig with multi GPU also running Windows 10.

I am using VER 006C 1703 btw often monitor temperature with infrared thermometer gun on the connectors to make sure that no loose connection that cause electrical sparking that will cause heat up and melt your parts.

I am using VER 006C 1703 btw often monitor temperature with infrared thermometer gun on the connectors to make sure that no loose connection that cause electrical sparking that will cause heat up and melt your parts. The 75 watts is not supplied by the powered riser. The main power for the GPU comes from the six or eight pin 12 volt power connector specifically designed for high end graphics cards. The power to the riser replaces the supplementary power that would be provided by the PCI-E slot which is not much power at all. The use of powered risers is to relieve the stress from the motherboard of supporting PCI-E bus power to too many cards, but this is by no means the main source of the graphics card power source. I am using risers with a molex to SATA adapter with SATA power from the PSU. I check the temps and the wires stay below 30C, which is about my room temp where I am located. They should not melt or get hot unless very thin, cheap wires was used to make them.
