Who ordered the AMD Radeon VII? Lets make a list of Miners / Hashrates / Coins

[deskless]

I just moved the rig from the top shelf to floor and hashrate went back to 89. Junction temperature is still very high over 100.  What are others doing about it?

Do you undervolt your card ? Less voltage means less heat, better speed and stability.

[Blooregardqcazoo]

Core voltage at 950mv and core clock at 1750mhz has been quite stable for me, with 90+ MH on ETH and 2900 KH on XMR. The junction temperature never exceeds 86 (stock cooling).

Does anybody have issues maintaining hashrates on Ethereum?

I just got a new MSI Radeon VII (Samsung memory) and it's unable to hold hashrates, even at stock, no matter what driver or miner I use. This contrasts greatly with my Sapphire card (Hynix memory), which is going at 93MH/s VERY stably. On both cards, I've swapped the cooler for AIO watercooling blocks, which has kept junction temps around 60 degrees C.

On the MSI, I've got the following settings: 1750MHz core, 962mV; memory at 1050Mhz.

It runs at ~90MHs for about 5-10 minutes, before violently dropping down to 47MHs.

I've noticed that when it drops down to 47MHs and I close Claymore, the core clock is stuck at 1750MHz, even though nothing graphically intensive is running.

I've tried cleaning and reinstalling drivers and swapping between PCI-E slots, and the damn MSI just keeps dropping.

Has anybody experienced this, and does this sound like a dud card?

Something similar happens with my card (AMD/ATI with Hynix) but only when the voltage is too low (e.g. at 950mv with around 1780 core clock) and the hashrate actually drops all the way to zero (while the card seems to still be under full load). Lowering core clock or increasing voltage solves it for me. Another thing to try is Phoenix Miner.

See if you need to disable UPLS and crossfire.
Do a search for EnableULPS and registry and see if it applies to your card

I was having wildly fluctuating hashrates for a couple of weeks on both my R VII's, until I realized I need to add some external cooling on my open air rig. Outside ambient temps were about 70-90 F (20-30 C), so apparently just ambient air isn't enough to cool them down. I have two cards, Asrock Radeon VII's with Samsung memory. Before cooling it was running at 79-89 MH/s on Ethereum and fan speeds set to auto, running around 75%. With the speed fluctuations I suspect throttling due to heat.

I went ahead and added a box fan. Result is one card running stable at 89.6 MH/s and the other stable at 89.4 MH/s.

MSI Afterburner settings: Core 950 mV, Power limit -10%, Core Clock 1750 MHz, Mem 1100 MHz, Fan Speed auto.

[rdbase]

These do put off alot of heat as another person mentioned they need extra cooling even with the three fans on the card.
The temperature can reach levels which are not good to run cards at 24/7 or the only thing they would be good for is this

You were most likely throttling due to junction temp exceeding 110c (or so.)

I don't know why everyone is so stuck on the 90 MHs number.  You can get measurably better efficiency (and significantly less heat) at lower h/rs - I'm seeing 82+Mhs for 215w atw (including idle) w/ 1575 cclock, 935 mclock @ ~858mv (this was months ago on original bios and older drivers - maybe even better now.)  90 MHs required over 250w iirc.

maybe where you do mining has a relatively cold temperature so you don't need to add air conditioning, but some miners in other parts of the world still have very hot temperatures to do mining so they need very large air conditioners to make room temperature and rig temperature so as not to heat up.

Looks to be around 95C to 101C.

I think the temperature is very hot for mining that can make your place burn, you better be careful and too over when mining.

The card seems to be rated for high junction temps.

Quote:
"Just like on Vega, the reported temperature values are quite high, which might scare some less experienced users. Once Junction Temperature reaches 115°C, the card will start throttling a little bit to keep the temperature below 115°C. At stock, with our card, this doesn't happen during gaming—we saw up to 110°C Junction Temperature."

That card was having a high junction temperature 110 or 115 as a throttle limit. I have used it and just try to undervolting my vega and tweak my GPU to reduces the heat. But this one is so hot and i was moving towards another GPU.

[Coffeehot]

its power consumption is still relatively high, and the TDP reaches 300W, which is similar to the RX VEGA 64. but its price is very attractive. i will consider it.

It’s power consumption *can be* (and will most likely be) higher than a 64 - it depends on how you tune - but it is significantly more efficient than a 64 when tuned properly, on a h/w basis.

300w would be pretty inefficient for mining.  OTOH, some gamers/benchers are getting into 500+ - go take a look on oc forums.

I am not having good luck with RadeonVII card. This morning got one but that kept crashing. Had to return it.

[shaninium]

What are people getting on these with the dual mining eth+vBlake (veriblock)

[solominer247]

Hey, I'm interested in the GPU and have been planning to build a mining rig.
How many GPUs can be powered using EVGA 1600 watts PSU?
Also, I'm worried about the noise dB, as I've read on some forums it can get loud?
