Funny, so I've installed windows on one rig, Win 10 Pro, especialy for Claymore 8 and my 480's and like 10 years go, Win freezes completely on a random basis Smiley

Why, cause "Linux doesn't freeze"?

It finally works here.. Speed is "ok" for RX 480's..



My Z170 only runs with 3 RX480s.. As soon as I put it int 4.th the board doesn't boot - it seems there is a conflict with the SATA port or so - no HD is recognized anymore. I already tried to disable the Internal GPU, HD Audio etc. everything in BIOS but it doesn't help.. Seems this shitty board can only run 3 cards at once.

Now the money is free, and so the people will be
What is better? Sapphire Nitro RX470 8GB or Sapphire Nitro RX480 4GB ?
I can buy RX480/4GB about $10 cheaper and with coupon for Civilization VI (which I can sell).
But 4GB memory is slower than 8GB...

get the 480 4g IMO, but dont use sata to molex adaptors with the 480...well you can, but they get too hot for me.

Now I'm wondering if I can stack a 6950 using the same process. So far I'm doing 260-265 sols.

after seeing this, i decide to see if my 5850 would run...it does

5 sols/s   Roll Eyes


amd-catalyst-15.7.1-win10-64bit, optiminer-zcash-0.6.0, hd6770 1gb - 11 sol/s, hd6870 - 19 sol/s  Smiley

 Seems like the old Terrascale cards don't work well with current code.

 I see 40-45 ballpark with a few HD 7750s (near lowest-end discrete GCN cards) - catalyst 15.12 on Win 7.

did you update the bios? helps with some boards to get a 4th or 5th card working, what brand is it?

Yes, board is at latest bios, gpus are all stock and sapphire nitros

I have tried the MSI Z170 and the ASUS Z170 models and had the same issues along with burning one out after undervolting some of the gpus.  After hours of trying got 5 gpu's to work, but I will NEVER get those motherboards again!  I eventually took the motherboards back.

Yeah I wasnt aware they are THAT bad.

Do you remember how you got 5 working?it fails for me with the 4th already

Do you have usb risers?  If not this would be the first step to put usb risers on.  Next, go into the computer setting and make sure that the 4th gpu is not in the system file as disabled.  Check the Bios for the setting for  pcie and set the generation to auto.  Those are a few things that I can think of right off hand.

I hope someone can help me with my problem. I have 3 gpus. Xfx rx470, sapphire rx470 and asus hd 7950. Problem is that i can't run all three gpus together, only xfx and asus or xfx and sapphire. My motherboard is asus p5k deluxe wifi.

What do you mean? You have to be more specific on why the third card doesn't run. Tell us what you're doing

Well I got this hd7950 for cheap and I also bougt a riser and built the rig frame and all. When I connect all three gpus xfx is in pcie x16 and sapphire is in pcie x4. They are both on motherboard directly. Than I connected hd7950 with riser in pcie x1 and only xfx and hd7950 were working. If i disconnect hd7950, xfx and sapphire are working. I also jump wired a1 and b17 pin on x1 slot.

From my experience running a 7770 with a 480 I had first to install the 7770 using the 15.12 drivers and only after install the 480 with the latest drivers. I think you should try first installing the 7950 alone on the x1 and ser if thats  is the problem and install the other 2 one by one.  Other things to look for is if you have enough power for all 3 cards. At a minimum a 650 PSU is needed. By the way how much you paid for the 7950?
