GPU 0 does that mean, he cannot find my GPU-card? using an Sapphire R9 290 4GB GDDR5 OC TRI-X with the latest software, so need to download the 15.12 for a better result???

Wait, I don't see any problem. GPO 0 means that it's using 1 GPU. Indexing of GPUs start with 0, if you will have 2 GPUs, it will be GPU 0 and GPU 1.

use this to uninstall any video card drivers AMD or NV , it works better then some of the paid version at it's level and i would uninstall them in safe mode .

direct download link from AMD's site for the Catalyst (Crimson) 15.12

http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/previous/detail?os=Windows%2010%20-%2064&rev=15.12


Like  eckmar  say use the newest drivers and I 'll take it another step that's bad advice claymore gives on what drivers to use because some cards are not supported by the Catalyst (Crimson) 15.12 and those drivers can be the main problem in some cases and tomorrow if what I read is right there is a new drivers releases coming form AMD that will be awesome . but well see tomorrow .

And drivers do matter in how they run the cards they power and the software those cards run .

Does this Catalyst (Crimson) 15.12 driver work with RX 480?

Why would you use them? Use blockchain drivers. Or some 17.6.x if you want WattTool and don't need DAG epoch fix.

1) To chime in with the others:

R9 380, 15.12 - since forever

470, 480, 16.9.2 - around 1 yr

I have no issue with ETH or ZEC or XMR.


2) Invariably when messing with any AMD driver, I always use the DDU  utility to reinstall 15.12 or 16.9.2

3) Under Windows, I always run the MSI afterburner utility to manage the above while mining.

4) One other issue, familiarizing yourself with how to setup your MB bios.

Okay, now I understand, I'll use the latest one, thank you very much.

1)uninstall current driver

2) install desired driver ...

Use the DDU to completely uninstall.

 No, they were released AFTER the 15.12 drivers were.

 I recommend the 16.9.2 WQHL driver for the RX 4xx series cards, it also works reasonable well with most older AMD cards (though there's a couple "holes" in it's support for older cards, noteably the Tahiti based cards like the R9 280x).


 Ignore the "blockchain" drivers if you are on Windows 7 - they flat out DON'T WORK on older cards in my limited testing of them.
 Seems like AMD ONLY tested them on Windows 10 for some STUPID reason.

I do not recommend using this  wagnard mobile software. It deleted a MF.dll file and I couldn't install neither the 15.12 crimson nor the current one.

So I had to recover my SO with a backup recovery point.
