I wonder why my Sapphiry Fury Nitro show 0 sols with asm algo. Anyone experienced this?

You need to reduce the intensity to -i 6 or lower.

That does not help. Tried even intensity 1. With - asm 0 I get 400 sols.

With this card, i only tried (-asm 1) and i get 430+ sols, using 15.12 drivers.
Quick guess, double check your driver version, as Windows loves to forcefully update the driver.

I think the problem is with the driver.

driver 15.12, -i 6, win7 64bit here, getting 470H/s with overclock

Hi Could you please show the capture of the overclock params for the fury

Hi, Could Somenne help with this?

One R9 280x Drops hashrate from 285 to 150 after some time shows this "WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hanges in OpenCL call, exit" and miners restart.

put monitor cable on that 280 card.
i was faced same problem last month and with this method my problem solved

I wonder if a dummy plug would work in that situation??

Wewisk,deadsix Thank you

Thinking to install powered risers instead of unpowered, now Im not so sure. May be its good enough to use unpowered risers with Zcash mining , coz its less power hugry then ETH mining.....

If you use the 480/470, it is better to mine the ETH.

find the ideal settings for each card individually, test it crash proof for at least 24h.

then put it in a rig along side other cards, maintaining space for proper cooling. ensure cooling is sufficient to surpass the environmental conditions during your 24h test scenario.

if you still crash it's likely a software issue like drivers or windows trickery.

if you are crashing or hanging while running the card individually for testing ideal configuration:

increase voltage which increases heat but makes things stable at higher clocks
decrease voltage which decreases heat but makes things unstable at higher than factory clocks due to sensitivity to quality of power signal delivered by gpu
decrease intensity which makes the card run cooler and cuts the workload slightly
decrease the clocks, gpu vs memory depend on the quality of your cooling solutions
clean and repaste your GPU

i do believe most of this has been said before..

Thanks for the tips. I pulled the suspect card from the rig and running another one of same kind for awhile to see if it is specific with this card. i think the card might be bad :-/

Rig ran all night stable with suspect card gone. Briefly put bad card directly on mobo and still problems. Guess the card is indeed bad. Fried mother board all risers and two vid cards in the adventures this weekend lol. Good news is found great deal on XFX Radeon RX480 on newegg ($180 after rebate) so have 4 new cards on the way.

Hello,

I have 2 Nano, 1 R9 280x and 1 RX480, is there a driver version where i can mix them and use -asm 1 for all cards?

if i use 15.12 i can not use RX480
if i use 16.12.2 i can not user nano with -asm 1

Thank you

No. Either split cards to different rigs, or use Linux version (but amd-pro drivers don't support 280x).

So good ETH is high, finally all 480s are there:)

That is right. The 480 is much more efficient to mine Ethereum. 7970/280x is more efficient to mine ZCash.

Hello! Sorry for offtopic question , but what is the advantage of using powered risers ? I was using 1x-1x unpowered risers with H61 BTC PRO ( wich has 2x MOLEX power plugs) for 2 yr. and had no problem with it.

If you use that H61 board, there is no need for the powered riser.

Fail to plan, and you plan to fail.

The Current series of graphics cards, the RX 470/480 pull almost 1/3rd of their power from the PCIe slot directly so unpowered risers would either not work or simply burn out. Older cards work fine with unpowered risers though, since they draw almost all of their power from the PSU power cable.

Anyone ever get message "AMD ADL Library not found."? I am noticing this in my output in terminal when running Claymore.

Hello

I want to buy new risers. Witch is better one? What version can i bought on Amazon?

This is off topic so maybe we should delete from this thread?

Well I sell risers on Amazon... I have 6 packs of risers in stock at Amazon now. With free prime shipping.

In my opinion, green version 6 are best. Black version 6 were good but the factory started making them in a hurry and we started seeing a lot of defects. Blue version 6 I have no personal experience with but a friend fried one in high temperatures. Same guy that recommended we switch from black to green.

Red version 7 appear to be made by the same factory that makes black version 7. You can see similar qualities in the way they are built.

Damn there is version 7 already? Cheesy

Why do we need so many versions?
Here in shops I can mainly see blue version 5, which I have all my cards on.

As for earlier posts I run 480 and 380 on the same rig - Tonga doesnt benefit much from asm anyway.

Edit: DR_TAMFR_DHP 16.6 drivers? I think you need newer, I am on 16.10.3, but claymore recommends 16.12.2. Nicehash recommends 16.11.5.

16.12.2 looks like it is for Windows. I'm running on Ubuntu.

I am getting this crash after a couple of hours of mining (r9 380x is gpu affected) - 2 380x and 1 rx480, running on 16.60 drivers. maybe i need to uninstall those drivers and install 15.12? Hope I can find those drivers online.

WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hanges in OpenCL call, exit
WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hanges in OpenCL call, exit
WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hanges in OpenCL call, exit
WATCHDOG: GPU 1 hanges in OpenCL call, exit

And then system hangs.

Connect it directly to the mobo
