AMD Releases Driver for DAG Issue !!!

[g0suboy]

I installed this driver on my first rig win10 3x rx570 msi armor oc 4gb,2x rx570 asus 4gb both cards hynix memory, bios mod straps from 1:1500 to 2000 and 2:1500 to 2000.

On earlier drivers my cards were giving around 25mhs with 1130/1950 clock. Everything over 1950 clock would hang the card in opengl or 511 celzius error or just bsod. Tryed all sort of drivers 17.5.1,17.7.1,17.7.2, mix of 17.5.1 and 16.11.5 everything and nothing helped to get mem clock over 1950.

After installing this driver, ddu,patch,msi ab 16 i couldnt clock the cards, clock settings applyed only for gpu0. Not even fan control for the rest of the cards. Then i restarted and tryed to open msi ab first then claymore miner and i got bsod (video integrity check failoure smth like that) then i relized i needed to start clay 9.8 first then ab but still settings could be applyed only for gpu0. Then i tryed to set core clock and mem clock in claymore bat file but was getting up n downs on memory from 1000 to 1950 (-mclock 1950).

After all that i installed msi ab 15 and guess what everything works as a charm.

Downvolting,cclock,mclock,fans everything and i can even set mclock higher without crashing, now running 1170/2000 getting over 28mhs per card.

This driver is blessing for me!
Gonna install on rest of my rigs with same cards and i hope everything will work like this one.

I was unsure about installing this driver sience many ppl said they had problems with it and boy am i glad i did it

Tryid it on 280x
Got 12-13mh per one(8.1x64, cm9....nothing change from 15.12 driver. Stupid amd didn't applied their fix to truly good cards

Where you found this driver for Windows 8.1? On AMD website i found just for windows 7 and windows 10.

I used win7 driver on win8.1, with win 7 compatibility option during installing.

Yeah if they fixed it on the 280x we would be getting 28MH/s with those old GPUs, but they only fixed it for the GPUs that they are currently selling. Greedy bastards.

Exactly...

What better power consumption in rx 570 4gb - 27.890mhz
I have 96w - 69c
1 RIG 4 RX 570 - 650w
1 RIG 3 RX 570 - 500w

I have x6  RX570 (27.15 / 27.20 Mhs  stable) with total  815w  (115w  x card + Mobo)


AMD always forgot Linux users   

[speedyb]

has anyone tried mining on a 2gb card with the new driver fix? wonder with more lanes if it be doable now. out of curiosity

What is wrong with using free windows 10?

[rhaegonz]

I think people use more linux for mining than windows, especially people with many rigs, why the hell they did released for windows and not for linux?

I think nothing...but I use win8.1

For most users with huge consumption increase:

It's because undervolting isn't working for you - You need to set up all in BIOS, find another tool that works or wait for news.

For those with drops to half performance and wierd clocks, it's because mem clock drops from 2xxx to 1000 or core clock drops to 300-900, it's due to high consumption - It's because undervolting isn't working for you - You need to set up on BIOS, find another tool that works or wait for news.

Some cards works with Afterburner Beta 15/16 / Wattool and Claymore (clocks) (especially 4xx) , some don't (mostly 580).

The fix isn't a driver side OC to compensate. If you try ubiq (no dag problem) and ETC (worse than ETH) the hashrate will be the same, the fix is real. Yet some people may experience some consumption increase (not huge - 5%, 10%) or even consumption drop.

Yea right. Can someone contact AMD to get linux fix release?

[weitau]

Help pls i tried to install the driver everything went fine but when i restart it my screen goes black
I have a windows 7 and i used the ddu also the patcher

Turn off Afterburner's setting to apply overclocks at startup.  You'll be in default settings on next reboot, then re-tune

Can you set clock & voltage in claymore with these drivers?

check the memory log

2100 to 1000

140W power draw??? Dude, thats way beyond 200W@the wall.

back to old driver. temp & power & hashrate

Hello,

i the same problem, which the old driver use?

Thank you

I had same problem with memory going from 2200 to 1000, seems the the LCD TV I was hooked up to was causing the problem. It was also crashing the pc, switched to old monitor with lower resolution and solve the problem.

Have you tried the patch?

Hi,
I have been running my rig with 4x powercolor rx 580 8gb, 2x rx 570 4gb and 1 sapphire rx 580 nitro + 8gb

after updating to this blockchain driver one of powercolor rx 580 card started to heat up very much. +5 degrees than others. I tried to run only with this card. same heat. reverted back to previous driver but heat still goes up to 75+ degrees. 4 cards are identical and only one of them causing this issue.

What do you guys think might cause the problem?

one of my rx580  hung . even i tried to install the old driver.

I predicted this. People need to understand that if rx 580 was not polaris then rx 480 would never have got the fix, so amd is giving support for only what they are selling and that is it.

Claymore failed for me.

Was on 1.7.1 official (@25.1 Mhs), used DDU to remove, installed Robinh00d, worked great and got 2Mh/s better.
Tried this driver - used DDU in safe mode, install Mining driver, install pixel patcher, reboot.  AB beta works, but Claymore 9.8 fails to initialize.

XFX RX 480 4 GB BIOS, modded BIOS

Spent several hours trying all the following:

• Reinstall all drivers (after removal using DDU Safemode
• Reinstalling windows 7
• Reinstalling 17.7.1
• Update with beta driver from robinh00d
• Rearranged my two GPUs to different PCI-e slots on the motherboard

Interestingly enough, the order of the graphics cards do make a difference.  Windows was not initializing them correctly, then I moved the riser'ed GPU to the other sideo of my GPU plugged directly on the motherboard.  Windows would boot, but get black screen after Windows logo appeared.

As of now, I am sticking with the beta driver (yeah I know) and happy to have AB working for 26.4 and 29.4 mh/s on my RX 480 cards.

As far as i know this driver does not work on Win 7.

It does work on Win 10 for RX580's. Just dont patch the driver with pixel patcher on 580's.
I used AB 4.4.0 Beta 16, works for OC settings. It however does not seem to undervolt card.
Also do not set your OC settings in the Claymore Batch file. does not work. The Driver changed the ADL API so would need an update for Claymore to fix this.
I used Global Wattman that comes with driver. Manually setting Voltage to 990mV and apply, it applies it but sometimes just reverts back to higher voltage later. Just set it back to Auto and apply then my voltage goes to 990mV again. (i do this while claymore is running)
Not even AMD software is properly controlling the Voltage..... tisk tisk AMD!
When you apply the pixel patcher and OC from the claymore batch file you get your mem clock jumping between 2150 and 1000MHz the whole time.
EVen GPU-z is reading GPU load incorrectly at 16% and mem controller 100% when it should be idle. HWinfo64 seems to read the GPU load correctly.

Managed to get my card stable at 30.5MH/s (MSI RX580 Armor 8GB) 990mV, 1250 GPU core, 2150 Mem clocks. Drawing under 100W running at 59-61C Temps. Happy will settle for that.
If running other AMD cards in the machine, and settings dont apply to others it could be because the are running headless. Might need to plug in a dummy plug into cards to make it think it has monitor connected. i know this works. Have found this with Nvidia mixed with AMD machines.
All Nvidia no problem.

AMD wont update driver again, so Claymore will hopefully soon update to fix OC and undervolt issues directly from the Miner batch file.

Buy and HDMI emulator dongle. When the computer reboots teamviewer will have a regular sized screen.
