Trying to setup dual PSUs on my mobo... I received my 2nd PSU today and was supposed to receive the ADD2PSU connector today too but USPS delivered to the wrong address and they are trying to find it... I doubt we will have any luck receiving it so I'll probably have to reorder it.
Anyways, I want to hook them up and turn the other PSU on manually.. What would be the most reliable method in doing this? I'm running cables now. Thanks

how do I figure out which pin is which? the EVGA cords are all black and not color coded, would it be in the manual? evga has a tester that you just plug into your mobo cable that fulfills this function just plugin the only piece thatll fit into your mobo connection thats in your box

alright, this is a nightmare.. i got the mobo running with both PSU's now..
my initial problem was that i could only get 4 running and the fifth 1080ti would cause a "Code 12" error.. insufficient resources.
so i did some research and found that I should change "pci e" settings to Gen 1, which I dont have but i do have the PEG0 and PEG1 "Max Link Speed" and I set those to Gen1.. It also said to change "Above 4G Decoding" to enable, so I changed that from disabled to enabled...
Now all 5 cards are working, but they are running like absolute garbage. The power is all over the place and they are getting 200sols, 300sols and 400sols, with maybe 1 at 600sol/s
I'm going to throw this rig into the street
my mobo is the MSI Z270 SLI PLUS (MS-7A59)
any help would be appreciated. Some say to install to windows 8 or 10, I may just buy a copy of windows 10 and try that out. Currently using Win7 x64

Just found it on the bottom of the box, works perfect!

ran out of ideas, installing windows 10 now... will report back results
Issue recap - 4 1080ti GPU's run great/fine on windows 7
Installed 5th, wouldnt work, code 12 error. Changed bios settings shown above and they all showed up and will run, but will run like complete shit. Power % shown all over the place, and some cards capping out at 200 or 400 sol/s when running Equihash or 20-30mh/s with skunk..
Now attempting to install windows 10 pro x64 and ensuring nvidia drivers are up to date
Edit: Windows 10 install did not help at all.. Ran each card individually, with their own riser and cords and they worked on par with the 680-710 sol/s, but the moment I go from 4 to 5 it runs worse than if I had 3
Edit: Now I can't get 4 cards running, 2 on each PSU... originally had 4 on 1 PSU.. feel like selling alll this crap now lol

What do you guys mine atm? Ich went with nicehash the last weeks because of idleness, but because of the relatively low ETH price I gain very little profit.

In my experience that could be motherboard. Some times the same motherboard need different settings. You need to play with dmi-pci settings in bios. Try this: 1) dmi speed gen 1, pci speed auto 2) dmi speed gen 1, pci speed gen 1 also some mother boards got 2 different setting for pci slot. Play with this settings also.

Tried to set up Sniffdog on my PC running a GTX 1080 yesterday but no luck. The miner window closes right after it opens. Can't figure out why (unless there's some obscure code in there that prevents it from starting on anything else than a 1080Ti?)...
I have Win10, Powershell v5... any ideas?

sniffdog, 3.1 per card last day, just 18 hours worked, cause some night troubles. Not $5/card, but at least better than zec.

Is that on zpool, MPH or Hashrefinery by the way? I'd like to get Sniffdawwgg to work on my rig of 1080's. Wasn't able to find where the intensities where hidden in the powershell scripts but maybe folks here can shed some light on that.

I just added my account on MPH to default settings, delete couple algos(I've been crashed on them ), and set interval to 300 after benchmarking. That's all. I use all available pools, ahashpool and your list. By the way, I tried to find intensities too, but not success on it... I think my cards crash on some algos, cause intensity is too high for them.

Ah interesting, I didn't realise Sniffdog was switching between pools as well as algos within one pool. Annoying to read about the crashes though. Same thing happened to me all the time using Nemosminer. In a way I find comfort in seeing I'm not the only one experiencing those issues.
