Hey! how is it going Metroid??
The issue is that the card takes too long to add the dag file to the memory. Normally, dag is created in about 10.000ms (about 10 seconds), 7 seconds most part of the time. But since dag 350, my 2 RX 580 4gb need about 70 seconds. Since watchdog reinitialises the miner at 60 seconds, the cards stay offline all the time and the miners stop working.
The work-around is to disable Watchdog or add more time to reiniciate the mining rig after a GPU fails as it's detected by WD.

Pretty good, thanks.
At least the dag is being processed. Usually miners leave the pc without a single restart for days. Well, as far as I can tell and I don't use watchdog at all, the rx 470 worked without any problems and it did not take long to start mining. All I saw was a normal behaviour. If dag 350 is causing issues for some people, imagine what will happen in a week or so with dag 351.
I guess to some people will be a good time to think about moving 4gb cards to something else.
