Can ethOS identify 6x 7990 GPUs that means 12 GPUs ?

p.s I already bought ethOS to support them but i didn't have the time to install it  Undecided

I think this ethOS sounds like -the- solution for my new Ethereum mining project.

Just bought 4 new Radeon R9-390X2 and thought I would need at least 16GB+ ram
and a massive MB with i7 CPU for 2 cards. (x2)
Can ethOS do the job in this case? 2 cards on a older MB  (K9N 2core) with just 2GB ram and ethOS?
This would save a lot of money! And less frustration, took me a lot of time running first Rig and
it doesn't seem to be easier with my Devil 13's so far.

I would not do 2GB ram only because of the DAG file, takes much longer to make. Do 4. The R9 390's are a solid choice (they do 31MH/s once overclocked and proper settings in the miner are applied). Although depending on price the 270X is also not bad as it does 15MH/s and use much less power, then again depends on price per gpu.

Thank you. Im sold.

One more thing can custom fan settings be used? This is most important to me

Yes everything is explained in the kb and the commented section in the conf. Here is an example from my own farm;

cor eb19aa 1100
mem eb19aa 1250
fan eb19aa 85
Config file with options avaiable can be viewed at: http://www.ethosdistro.com/pool.txt

Personally I find coinotron to be the best. So i want to stick with them.

Can you overclock the core and memory in ethos ?

This sounds like a great distro

Yes, you can overclock both, please see feature list here:  http://ethosdistro.com/

Thank you.

Can this be used for pool mining ? Eg coinotron that uses their own proxy..

Im intrested but I only pool mine wuth a few hundred hash

Yes, the default out of the box setup is ready to mine at ethpool (i personally recommend this as it has the most fair pay for your hashrate) and dwarfpool. Also good but personally i prefer Ethpool. http://ethpool.org/

You flash the OS on a HDD or SSD(highly recommended). USB may very well be too slow. Boot it, access the .conf, put your addy in there and done. Then you can tweak and OC etc. Its pretty easy to do.

Here's the KB:
http://ethosdistro.com/kb/

Digital purchase download link(with ref) to is in my sig; "gpuShack mining hardware". Calc and Freenode channel are there as useful ressources as well. Tongue

my question with ethos is whether drivers and such have to be downloaded prior to launching ethos? I mean buying your mobo pack and a few gpus do the drivers for both gpus and mobo need to be installed prior to launch. thanks!

No drivers need to be installed. ethOS is confirmed to work out of the box with any motherboard made 2011 and after (and probably many more motherboards), and the following GPUs:

Any 2GB+ HD 7000 series, any R9 200/300 series, including R9 390/390X/Fury/Nano

Hello,


Please let me know how can I change the memory speed for my r7 370 rigs.
It seems I'm able to modify only the core speed and the memory is working on the stock speed 1400. The globalmem command doesn't work in my case.



Thanx

Kotarius I have questions about your ethOS  Grin

1. So I just have to plug in your SSD in my mining rig and it starts to mine ?
2. no drivers needed ?
3. Can i install 'TeamViewer' in order to check my mining activity from my office ?
4. Do you use Ubuntu and then you added your custom software ?
5. Does your software support gpu undervolting ?
6. If we have a power cut does the mining starts again automatic ?
6. If the SSD fails-crash what am i doing ?
7. Do you sell just the ethOS with a download link and how much ?

I would like to buy your ethOS and support you but I need answers first.
thank you

Let me answer that for you.


1. No, or it will mine to his Eth address.
2. Every system is different, so yes you will need other drivers!
3. You can, but stupid idea,
4. He has no custom "software" nothing is "his" he just uses bits and pieces from here and there. There is nothing he wrote himself.
5. NO. He has no custom software, and linux does not support that, only windows (msi afterburner and so on)
6. That, i'm curious about myself. You will have to wait days if not weeks until you get a new one. (i think)
7. I don't think so because than we can all download it and it will get spread more easily and he will lose money. And that is the utter most important thing for him. MONEY.


Voila.

Hope that answers your questions.  Cool

5: linux under/overvolting gui = AMDOverdrivectrl, lots of other settings as well
still havent got it to work for multiple gpu yet tho, seems to only grab GPU0
and i didnt get it to work on my 290x cards only the 7950s
im also using linux with cinnamon tho and this environment has has much to be desired when using multiple gpus
or i just dont understand xrandr at all or i need to install one of the the other older SDKs

Just bought a gpu from gpushack my order was processed and shipped sitting at my door in 3 days all together keep up the good work also I'm not a Linux guy I'm a windows guy so to pay the low price of 39 dollars with a hard drive and ethereum mining set up out of the box is great

Will it work with MSI Z87-GD65 motherboard and 7x MSI Gaming 2G R9 270X GPUs?
https://www.msi.com/product/motherboard/Z87-GD65-GAMING.html#hero-specification

ethOS has been tested on that motherboard, and does work.
