Because of this https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/linux-graphics-x-org-drivers/amd-linux/918649-underclocking-undervolting-the-rx-470-with-amdgpu-pro-success
I can't compile the kernel the file is missing with 4.9 seems to work. Do you have any idea why the undervolted bios dose't work?

You need bios with added offset. Its working then.

The offset have to be added with hex editor, right?

Rig grouping feature is closer and closer, Now after i implemented new dashboard wit totally rewriten engine i will be able to make grouping.
So hold on. Its next on the list !

When update for grouping rigs?
It's very inconvenient to change accounts.

Cant't overclock GPU11 - only bios mod.

many gpus, do you use pcie usb 1 to 3 i think, what mobo do you use?
And about power consume cause you have 470 / 480 rigs with same number what is watt ratio?
atm my rigs are 8x480 (245mhs) with 1150 watt at wall, i think you have heat problem cause my hotest gpu is 55° couldest 45° (24° ambient) my rigs no extra fans installed

ASUS PRIME Z270-P
use 3*1->3
its just only number - ~2000watt from wall
no have extra fans - in room with 39GPU 25-32°C

Does anyone have any input on why core clock would stick at 751 ONLY when dual mining?  (it works but hash rate is 2/3 of what it should be for eth and DCR)  I have running fine on another rig with different mobo and video cards.  The problem board is Asus h170 Pro gaming with rx470 visionteks  4gb ram.  It will hash eth just fine solo, and I had it working when I was running win 10, dual mining, however with windows 10 I could only run 4 cards.  Even dropping down to four cards with simpleminer I am not able to effectively dual mine, hashes at 13-14 eth and around 400 dcr. 

I have tried setting core clock to 1100 in oc tool with 1750 ram, no change.  I have used both beta drivers when they were available before update, no change.    I currently have pci speed in bios at gen 2, g6 enabled.  Cant think of any of bios settings to try but I am totally open to any input, issue is driving me crazy.  I suspect it could be a driver issue.  I have try powerstate at 7 and 4.  I can set core clcok less than 751, but it will not exceed that.  When i mine eth solo it will adjust to my settings.   My other rig functions perfectly fine, however I can not dual mine effectively with a core clock of 751.

I do have 4g encoding enabled, disabled audio, dmi opi auto, and using on board video as default.  PEG is set to 2nd gen as I have issues when its on auto/gen 1 or gen 3 but I will play with it more.  For now I have registered this rig under different email and solo mine eth as grouping is not implemented yet.

Thanks to Soothaa continuing after I gave up. I can now run 7 570s on my 170a boards!

Anyhow, I've been carefully watching my power usage due to having to make sure I'm balancing the load of my machines across circuits. I'm not doing anything with the bios tuning to try and lower my power but I do set all them to power stage 4. With that, a 7 gpu rig runs under 1000w at the wall or just under 9 amps.

I have $7k invested in this, I wasn't about to give up!

Yeah balancing is a bitch isn't it?

With multiple jobs tugging at my time and a significant adversion to downtime, I just couldn't afford the extra time needed to continue tuning.  I had so many GPUs come in that I didn't have a test bench anymore! With 5 z87 boards maxed out at 7 cards each that were super stable, I was just going to see if I could find a few more. Thanks again, you've given me the added problem of having to find a few more gpus in order to max out my z170a boards!

Now, if I could only get risers to stop dying on me.  Between some junky new USB risers and the old ones I have from 2013, it seems like anytime I have to move or reboot a system, there's a riser issue. I've been meaning to say something for a bit but I wanted to give a shout out to the guys from Miningparts. I just bought a bunch of new risers from them and they're my go to when a gpu starts acting flakey.

One last thing for all the guys asking about power, I was trying to understand the difference between what the cards were using versus what I measured at the socket(efficiency) when I found this great resource for power supply sizing:

http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/

I've been buying 1200s for my 7 GPU systems but this is saying a 1k should be sufficient.  That jives with what I've been measuring at the wall on my maxed out rx470 systems so I'm trialing a couple evga G3 1k power supplies.  If that works out, it'll save me about $100 per new build.

If we will pay for your OS, can you add function to change pool, coins for each rig on one mail account?

Dumb question:

I have 2 x MSI 480 8GB X graphics cards, getting around 24 mh/s out the box. Wanting to overclock to get closer to 29 mh/s. I presume I do this via the overclock settings in simple mining rather than on my windows dual boot?

I changed the core on simplemining to 1095 and the memory to 2000 and saw no increase in hash-rate...

Thanks Decay!

We stand by our gear too if anything goes bad. We're happy to replace defectives.

I have a problem. I have 6 rigs but only 2 of them has trouble.

GPU1 hangs in opencl call says always. what should i do ?

Lower the overclock on that card.

You need to save original bios, modifu under polarisbios editor (copy 1500 strap to all above) save, flash, reboot, and then try to overclock memory to 1980-2100 - you will have much more like 28MH.
If you want 29+ then you need custom timing strap for memory (not dummy copying) .

For those waiting on the info for the MSI Z170A M5 Gaming board and 7x GPU support I finally have it working on both of my boards.

1) Make sure you're running the latest BIOS!
2) Enable 4G
3) Set PCIe support to "Auto" - DO NOT MANUALLY SET TO GEN1. THIS CAUSES MAJOR ISSUES
4) Enable onboard graphics startup as first! I believe this is changing "PEG" to "IGD" or something in the Advanced BIOS
5) Plug your monitor into the ONBOARD graphics
6) Use either simpleminer-RX-v1093-4.11.rc8-16.60-enableexe0ANDips0.imgc or simpleminer-RX-v1093-4.11.rc8-16.60-enablerc60.imgc (sorry, I don't remember which I used!)

My 14x GPUs have been stable all night long!

Glad you were able to get this mobo working with 7 cards. Your instructions are substantively identical to mine from over a month ago (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541084.msg18423032#msg18423032 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1541084.msg18756984#msg18756984). Sorry for not pointing this out earlier, but other commitments (i.e., yard work) have been taking up all of my free time as of late. For whatever reason, there were a handful people who simply couldn't get their mobo to work for  5+ cards, so don't be surprised if people report back that your instructions don't work for them.

Also, this board can handle more than 7 cards.

hi, today i received my m.2 to pci-e adapter and tried them out on two of my cards, when they are pluged in 2 of the 4 remaining cards that are on the regular pci-e slots go nuts, the cooler jumps for a minute to 100% and repeats that every couple of minutes...when i plug all the cards back to the pci-e slots the coolers work like they should..any ideas?

Will it work up to 8 or can it go to 9 or 10?

[Sequoia93]

I am getting very inconsistent hashrates in smos using Claymore. I have 570s that hash at ~29 MH. In Claymore in smos I am getting a very inconsistent readout jumping back and forth from 29MH and 19MH (and sometimes somewhere in between). Anyone else experience this?

Also, I'd like to try sgminer for eth, does smos support that? I only see sgminer for cryptonight, pascal, and nicehash in the beta dashboard.

All I can say is that my boards are stable for weeks at a time running 9 RX 470 4GB cards. I haven't tried 10 cards because my rigs have been so damn stable with their current setup, I didn't want to risk introducing new issues, especially with mining difficulty increases as of late, since the prospect of obtaining additional RX 470s at a reasonable price appears to be minimal at best.

I have a vague recollection of Tytanick mentioning that smOS can handle up to ten cards, but he needs to update scripts before it can handle more, though I may be way off base with my recollection.

Are you using that modified BIOS that's floating around or did you tweak it yourself?

Are you using a 1->3 "splitter" or a M.2 slot adapter?
