Mining rig keeps restarting

[minefewcoins]

Hi,
this is my first post, so be gentle please.
My PC restarts few minutes after I start Claymore dual miner (eth-dcr). I tried to limit power draw anywhere from -15% to -50%. It says my power draw from the wall is 700-1150w depending on settings. No matter what settings I put on Wattman it restarts every time. I tried 2-3  drivers and it didn't help. Can you point me in the right direction because I am totally clueless?

My rig is:
PSU FSP aurum 1200w PT
4x Asus Vega Strix 56
CPU Pentium G4400
MOBO Gigabyte GA-H110-D3A Mining Ready
RAM Crucial CT8G4DFD8213
SSD Kingston uv400
Riser card ver.008s

Start your rig with only one Vega connected and see if this restarting continues to happen.

troubleshoot your pc by trying 1 vid card, then 2, then 3, then 4. sometimes it maybe some other pc component driving your computer to restart.

I did. It happens anyway. But i think I found the problem. Can you tell me what temps in red boxes should be?

Im pretty sure they shouldn't run hotter than 80C

Don't mine with those cards with 91C avarage temp ... You are killing your cards , your pc probably shut down bc the thermal protection ? Its maybe just a reading error , you should check that temp with another software also
You should keep that temp under 80C  , better around 70C for a 24 hours mining ...

If you keep doing what you doing you killing your cards within a short period of time ....

What is telling you exactly your rig is pulling 700-1150 watts at the wall ?

It says my power draw from the wall is 700-1150w depending on settings.

Did you checked the temps with gpuz also ?
What temperature GPU-Z is reporting ?

If I had to guess it is probably just the power draw of the cards themselves, not the whole rig. Unless he's running it off a battery where the discharge can be measured.

Whenever this happens 90% of the time it's the USB risers.

If not that then it's either overclocked way too high for the voltage. Bring back to stock for a while and test that way.

If it crashes then it's your risers.

... or maybe the 94.4 C gpu hot spot temp and the 91C avarage GPU HMB temp what the OP get on his cards ...

Mounted a new rig this week and i was fked up because it was going down every hour more or less. After some testing (risers, cables, power, psu,etc...) i came down to check the basic and pulled off the reset connection at the power jumpers. Running fine for 3 days now

PS: fekin asrock h81 its shit compared to asus mobos ^^

Are you perform dual mining?
Try to lower the target temperature and increase max fan speed.

[stonedgz]

i have the same problem my rig restarts every few hours i dnt know why

my power draw from gpu is 130 its too much how can i lower the power consumption ?

[digitalunix]

it is just because your psu is not enough for 4x vega 56. Try using 3 or 2 first, then sometime later 4th one. But in any case, problem is your psu, try to connect a higher one or make it dual psu.

[minefewcoins]

Thank you all for the reply.
The power draw is measured with wattmeter, so it's the total draw from the wall (but I lowered the power limit). The problem is that card is adjusting fan settings according to the gpu temperature and ignoring the others like HBM. I put manually to higher RPM and everything was really cool except HBM on max temp arround 80C. I guess I should undervolt it because it is 1.25V stock. I am testing it again and will report back in 10hrs or so.

Are you aware of the double performance mining VGA performance becomes less than the maximum? Better focus on one mine with maximum results.
Try to do one mining, is there still often a restart? And do not forget to see the temperature not to 80C, if using the application after burner immediately lower the memory clock and core clock.

I put fan on manual and it solved graphic cards problems. But where is this "Temperature 4" sensor on MOBO? It goes over 93C

[dimelight2]

It can be windows update problem if you are using windows, be sure you have turned of windows update.

It is disabled. Do you know where could be that part so I can put better heatsink on it, or put one fan near it?
Here is the photo of mobo

[xxcsu]

why not just placing a high cfm fan over the mobo , and let it blow air to the whole motherboard ?

80 degrees is a lot. I have in the settings Claymore is off at 72 degrees. It is possible to switch-off rigs OP in the same range. I never allow my GPU to work at temperatures above 60 degrees. It is in dual mode. It's cold in my country now. Therefore, my rigs are not heated above 50 degrees. I think this is the best regime.
