Hi all, hope you can point me into the right direction.

I have mining rig with two rx580 8GB Aorus and two rx580 8GB ASUS Dual cards working perfectly well ( been mining and testing it without issues ). Now, when I bought one more riser cable and would like to attach Sapphire rx570 Nitro + 4GB to the RIG and I turn the PSU on after adding this GPU and press power ON button, it starts spinning, SAPPHIRE blue light pops on the GPU and then a "click" sound is heard and it begins all over again and again, never getting further away from there.

PSU is strong, 1800 W and these 5 cards should be no issue for it. Riser cable is with Molex and it is a second riser connected to the same MOLEX cable that comes out of the PSU ( have to do it, since I don't have enough MOLEX cables going out of the PSU in order to power on 6 cards ).

It's not riser fault, I tried the same GPU on another ( already working ) GPU's place on that GPU's riser cable and the exact same thing happens again.

I am out of ideas, don't know what might be causing this. It's not riser, PSU.... what could be the issue? The fact that the fifth card is rx570 with 4GB ? I doubt that.
Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

Sorry, I saw mining support and it seemed a good forum to post this question. Didn't see it was under Bitcoin mining. I want to ask a mod to move the post to a proper subforum if needed and in the meantime, if anyone has anything useful to answer on this subject?  Sad
