Ethereum Hashrate Drop

[bscrypto]

I've had 2 rigs up and running Windows 10, with XFX RX 8gb 580s for 6+ months.  They are all on the latest drivers and have consistently been getting 29-31Mh/s per card with a modified BIOS running Claymore's 10.0.  Two days ago every card in both systems dropped down to ~24Mh/s with for no apparent reason.  Has anyone else had this happen to them?  I'm just trying to figure out how to get the production back up, since I didn't change anything and they all just dropped.  Please help!

  Hi bro, it can be a driver update, you can check the the drivers, id it changed, delete it with DDU program, and try drivers in amd website. drivers can be change even if you close the Windows update.

Try DDU, check PSU status and check for riser card problems.

All i can say is that you have been lucky that it hasnt happened earlier.

Could be the fans that need some cleaning?

He said he's only been running for 6 months. Unless he's smoking right onto it, there's no way dust should be a factor so early on.

Thanks.  I did a DDU in Safe Mode and re-installed the official DAG drivers from AMD and everything is back to normal.  I'm not sure how both systems got updated to a newer version, but I'm good for now (until Windows/AMD tries to do it again).  I'll have to investigate why, but at least it's back up faster again!

On Windows 10 Pro you can set Windows Update to not include drivers. Type 'gpedit' in the search box and in the Group Policy Editor navigate to Administrative Templates ==> Windows Components ==> Windows Update and set 'Do not include drivers with Windows Update' to enabled.

Hi
Can you please post which version of driver did you install and what mining software are you using

Mine dropped at 24 per card without changing driver, i am using 16.10.1 and the system is very steady

Try downloading the AMD Blockchain drivers, use the patcher to patche the values and restart the computer.. You should be getting the same hashrate as u had it few months ago.

In the system Windows has the automatic updates feature drivers. I have a program that disables this function but sometimes the system is still being updated. Perhaps you have the same problem. You need to install a modified driver, and performance will increase. Only now it is not profitable to mine Ethereum. Too fell the profitability of its mining.

Thank you baga105

I have downloaded the blockchain driver
In which patch you are referring to?

Now that i have the vesrion 16.10.1 what to do? apply the new driver on top of the old or uninstall it and install the new one?
