That seems ok to me for 70% power limit. Are they running on stock clocks or have you overclocked the core/memory any? For reference we usually get about 700 sols at 80% power limit with ~150-175 on the core using EWBF miner for Equihash.

Well, after numerous days of not being able to get any GPU despite being on every auto-notify list known to man, I was able to procure 2 Asus rog-strix 1080 A8G Gaming cards today from an unexpected source. The Employee Purchase store of my employer apparently got some of these and also the 1080ti equivalent in today. This also happened earlier in the week but i missed out on it as I wasn't able to get in within the first 5 minutes. Today i got really lucky as they sent the notice out at like 3pm and most people were already gone for the day i think lol. Cost was $550, which is probably just above regular retail for these but in this market, I snapped up 2 of them pronto. Ideally, was looking for more 1070ti's but i think the only real benefit to those is that they are better on ETH, and I've got this rig mining ZCL anyway so shouldn't matter much. And this will let me finally complete this rig that's been running with only 4 GPUs for 2 weeks lol, so it's all good.
The only slight PITA is that these are 8+6 connectors and I only have single 8-pin PSU cables left. But, I assume 8+6 splitters should be relatively easy to find, so looking for those next. Or... is this even needed? meaning, could i just plug by single 8-pin PSU cable into those GPUs and still have it work fine? I only plan to run these at max 70% anyway, so not real sure if that extra 6-pin is needed or if there is an actual difference power wise in adding a 8+6 adapter when the power is still coming from a single PSU cable.
Those are decent cards what psu do you have for them. I may have cables. I'm running this rig off an EVGA G2 1000w... actually, the exact one that I bought for $100 directly from EVGA a while back per your posting of the deal here (thanks again for that)! I messaged EVGA support yesterday as I've heard that they sometimes support requests like this. I also checked out a custom cable site recommended on the EVGA message boards, but these would cost a ridiculous $17 each plus an insane $20 for shipping! So, $54 for 2 freaking cables lol... I think not! Anyway, yeah... Phil if you or others here have any of those PCIe 8 x 8+6 cable from a G2 i would be happy to pay a fair price for them.

I have cable everywhere I will look for 2 of them. May not find them. But I will look. my third rosewill tokamak blew up. this is more complicated . I thought it was rosewill issue I then thought it was mobo issue I now think I was a bad power cable. I am now using a corsair. I hate to return a third rosewill. got refunds on the first two. I swapped mobo . still had issues I swapped psu to corsair still had issues I switch power cords it seems better.

Hey Phil... i just heard back from EVGA and looks like they will send me a couple of those PCIe cables for $6 each, so don't worry about looking for them. I have to say that I appreciate them not raking their customers over the coals for extra parts. I was expecting at least $10 but $6 is more than fair. About those Tokamaks Phil... I certainly hope it is not a PSU issue since I have 2 of those in a box waiting to build my 6th and 7th rigs. Seemed like they were pretty solid but you never know i guess. Does seem like your issue could have been the power cord though...

I lost a rosewill capstone 750 two nights ago, first PSU to go.
It reset the mobo bios, and, strangely, locked up the internet for the entire house until I killed the power strip

I am fully riser free.. Thanks to my Seller Sidonia on aliababa .
I am running 6 slot and 8 slot boards with zero risers.
Hi! Do you prefer server PSU for 6-slot riserless? I've ordered M06 (integrated CPU) from Letine but now I am unsure what PSU should I buy for it, cause the M06 have lot's of MOLEX and SATA connectors onboard.

So I'm loosing a little faith in my back order supplier ever giving me a timeline on my sapphire rx 580's; if he even knows.
I have found a few MSI brand RX 580's
This is my first build, so I'm just wondering what peoples thoughts are on the MSI cards, they are only going to cost me an extra 60$ and I can pay that off by mining instead of waiting another 3-5 weeks; if even that soon.-Edited-, found someone else for the Sapphire's still cost 500CAD. And they sent an email stating it was a stock issue on the website Coincidentally He is also where I ordered my MOBO, and doesn't sound like that one is coming any sooner. Any suggestions on a MOBO. Anything that handles 6 or more cards. I'm starting with 6 but have 2000W available so if it has more capacity I can just Add cards instead of buying a whole new setup. -Socket type 1150 based on what I've already bought and received, to give more info- Thanks for the tips and advice.

Refurbished from Corsair website. But if you plan on using nvidia and smos Set tdp to pull under 750 watts. That would be 6 1070 at 100 to 120 watts.

Anyone got a bent GPU before? Thinking of returning it as I don't want a GPU that will be hard to sell. Here's a pic of it. MSI RX 580 https://imgur.com/JX1409e

Yeah, definitely send it back because small surface mount components have bodies made of ceramic that are easily cracked by way less bending than that. Heck, even copper traces on internal layers can crack from that amount of flexure!

I stopped counting the amount of GPUs I've held over the years and I've never seen any that were even 10% of that. I'd be worried about the entire PCB cracking if it's bent that much, let alone capacitors etc as already mentioned.

I'm hoping you veteran miners can help this humble Jr. member out... what is the typical cause of a multicolored/snowy line scrolling up the display just before the GPU blacks out for a moment, only for the display to return to normal for a random period of time? VRAM memory errors or what?
This is with a single Asus ROG Strix GTX 1080 that is currently set with MSI AB to: 85% PL, +50 core (hovering right around 1800), +200 mem (steady at 4714). Temperature is also fairly steady at 65-67C. I am doing a head-to-head comparison between NiceHash and Nemosminer/MiningPoolHub and I am experiencing zero errors with the EVGA GTX 1080 FE that NiceHash is using while this Asus is starting to worry me.
EDIT - screen was repeatedly blanking out and on a lark I tried switching from HDMI to DP (it was either that or use TeamViewer)... So far so good, but I am posting this edit specifically to jinx it.
