So i have about 14 rigs that have problem with new 1.6 and 1.6.1 optiminer. 1.5 was working nice. Claymore is working without problem. I think that 1.6-.1 destroyed some of my risers. After 10 h mining with optiminer (with watchdog to restart) is no way to run rig without problem.
Rigs:
6 x RX 480 G1 gaming
6x RX 480 XFX RS
6x RX 480 XFX GTR
3x 5x RX 480 XFX Reference with backplate
7x 5x RX 480 Sapphire Reference
H81 pro btc
SSD drive
1600W psu

I was swithed all rigs to Claymore. Can you add v1.5 optiminer as miner option? Its 280-290 Sol/s, but work stable for me.

Plus 1 on Optiminer 1.5 option for RX. The speed boost is awesome but the 1.6 compatibility issues is horrible for RX. I have 40 USB drives sitting here waiting for a working solution. =)

I will try make beta update soon for new kenel (after i will test some of them and also OpenCL new driver)
Thx to laik2 for help. !

my 27 msi 470 4gb with stock bios all good.
1 msi 480 8gb stock bios good
1 msi 470 4gb with mod good

-is it RX OS ?
- what gpus ?
- what core and memory clocks ?
- do they have custom bios with modded timings ?
- which miner are you using ? optiminer ? mining zcash/komodo ?

3x RX 480 8GB (2 powered and 1 unpowered risers)
Standard bios, clocks,...
Optiminer - zcash

The beta kernel is better, but not ideal. It may be a day fine, and the next day I must 2-5 times a day to restart the rig.
Today I switch from USB to SATA and 3 hours without errors for now.

- yeah I saw select SSD ,but do i need to remove the SSD from that box and install the image while the SSD is plugged into another machine or can i just run it on the target machine
thats what I really meant sorry

I think i dont understand you but let me tell you how it needs to be done.
You need to run windows righ? So run it but dont touch that Widnows drive.
Second drive is that SSD that needs to be plugged also into that windows PC.
image file you need to have on windows drive and then run app and select this second drive. Is it ok ? Cheesy

Can you add claymore + DCR ?

Use Claymore cutom miner that is already that what you want, you just need to enter proper options to start mining DCR.
And this is what i wont help, you need to enter claymore eth miner forum page and see examples and add dcr options.

also how do you install to an existing sata SSD instead of a flash drive ? all my rigs have 120GB SSDs

You should be able to select SSD in HDDRaw Copy Tool right ?

- Ok thanks for the info on claymore settings.

Can someone recommend a BIOS for R9 Fury and Rx 480 cards that drops power consumption while allowing stock core/memory frequency for multi algo mining?

Use the guides from the forum, search for VDDC Offset, keyword 8D 00.

I have tested open source amdgpu drivers from 4.7 to 4.10rc3 , 4.10's performance is quite good but a lot of stability issues.
The most stable kernel is still 4.4 with amdgpu-pro 16.50.

Hi

I am using a 250gb hard drive...its from a laptop, one I used for testing. I can put a new hard drive in and give it a whirl see if that would make a difference. I think I fixed the core/mem issue ... reading correctly now. I changed the PCIEX16_1 to GEN 2 seems to be working ok.

Update: Tried the upgrade again and it worked only thing it would not reboot....had to hit reset...Everything looks good...

Still all ok? I have same issue, after some time some xard get 300 until restart.

Is it only under optiminer?
Can you tell me more details ?
-is it RX OS ?
- what gpus ?
- what core and memory clocks ?
- do they have custom bios with modded timings ?

hello tytanick..
possible to undervolt on ur os?

like use Wattool in windows?

thanks master, amazing os btw

Unfortunatley there is no such tool for linux.
Only way to undervolt (at least for now) is to make custom undervolt OFFSET in bios.
You could check how works those bioses on your gpus:
anorak.tech/t/anoraks-vbios-collection-optimized-settings-for-performance-power-saving/13
Anyway i dont renember if they have offset. I have custom bioses myself for RX470 Gigabyte G1, RX480 Asus White, and Shpphite.
But i cant give those for free as i had to pay for them. But they work under my distro.
For example, Bios modded for energy efficency, Added undervolt offset and copied timings for RX470 Gigabyte G1:
26,5MH/s ethereum and rig with 6 gpus takes 740 watt from wall (measured by watt meter - its only way to measure the right way)

Suggestion :
It could be possible to select miner for each rig individually and not all rig mining the same things
Especially a difference for R and RX OS
That's just a suggestion, because currently the only solution is to have to two different mail address

There will be rig grouping and this is how i see it:
- each rig can be assigned to specific group name
- dashboard table will be selectable
- there will be action like "select group "JohnHouse"
- there will be options to do something with selected rigs: reboot, reload
- also there will be option to "assign" specific miner and miner options to selected rigs
If you have any other proposals just tell me.

I am not sure for 100% but i would say this is "normal".
I seen this but i dont have any problems on my gpus.
RX470 Gigabytes G1
RX480 Asus (white)
and also tested on many 380 Gigabyte G1
All with no problems in 4.10 kernel but in 4.8 i had problems like 300 MH in OC.
Also if you see 300MH in OC, there is a big chace that this gpu just hanged and OC went to zero. (i dont renember how it acted on my gpus)
I can release newer kernel, meaby it will be fixed if kernel is the issue ofcourse

I think that a rig should only be on 1 coin.

you need 2 rigs

one for say xmr with email a
one for say zec with email b

Asking him to allow:
2 of 6 cards on a rig for xmr
2 of 6 cards on the same rig for eth
along with 2 of 6 cards same rig for zec

makes for a ton of extra work for his servers.

I have 9 rigs total of 37 cards
that would be a ton of combinations for the server.

vs 3 rigs on eth email a
3 rigs on zec email b
3 rigs on xmr email c

that is 3 spots or paths for his server

picture my 10 rigs with all kinds of separate picks for mining

vs

3 emails 3 rigs all the same

below one email with multiple picks on just a few of the rigs and the pattern is complex

I have Sapphire RX 480/470 Nitro

UPDATE - Just tested on 2 rigs that was only hashing with 6 vs 7 GPU on 1 and 4 instead of 6 under Optiminer. When I switch to Claymore Zec, it works for all GPUs. However Claymore is slower so we definitely need to get Optiminer to be more compatible. So doesn't appear to be a USB issue as I tried it using USB 2.0

Please mention what GPU Brand. Seems like reports are Sapphire works good, MSI have issues. We need to track the vendors that are not working so he can take a look.
