It should use 700-800Watts. Something is wrong or you are dual mining.
I am not dual mining, not sure why it pull that much power.I will start tweaking it a bit tomorrow and see if i can sort it out.

I got the MSI RX480 8GB cards with 6 pin power connectors and have had them up and running on ETH for a day now.
All cards run at stock clocks and mine at around 25Mhs. The whole rig is pulling 1200w from the wall right now and i will try to tweak the voltage a bit.
The cards seem to draw quite much power from the PCIE slot. At first i hade three USB risers powered on two rails but had to ad a third rail due to VERY hot connectors. So now i run three rails for the risers with two cards on each rail. The connectors are still warm but more in the normal range.

But what when i want to dual mine, or mine some other coin (with higher power consumption)? I am not going to pay for a card that can't achive full possible hashrate because some amateur decided that 6 pin connector would look nice and pcie specfication does not apply him.
If you undervolt them for ETH mining, there is no issues with reference 6pin models at all... Even with stock settings, with new drivers from AMD and powered risers, those cards are really safe...
I see some aftermarket cards with better cooler and pcie connectors are showing up now. Looking forward to seeing some of the reviews.
It is better to use the new 480 RX cards with the 8pins. That is much safer than the AMD original cards.
The 6 pin stock AMD 480 RX is too dangerous. You need very good PCIE risers so that it will not be burnt.
Very true... Specially for continuous usage! I only so the sapphire nitro+. Have you seen other models?

ETC and ETH use the same software, the only difference is the pool or the wallet you use that software with.
Anyone compiled for me miner OPEN CL for amd rx480 on windows 10 x64 ? please 
.

I have a question .
AMD rx480 work for ethereum classic ( etc ) on windows 10 x64 home edition redstone ?
Thanks .

Yes, it should work.

I want to buy 2 x rx480 nitro 4gb , but on LBRY make only 600 kh/s for card on windows 10 x64 
and with linux ? .
With ETC and ETH i know the speed is 25 mh/s .
With my GTX 1070 i have 270 mh/s with LBRY .
Thanks .

Don't worry about LBRY, it won't much profitable much longer.
are you worried about the fact that you were wrong about ethereum being the only profitable one? i told you long time ago, that other better coin would emerge
and this is only the beginning, Lbry was not even the one i was talking about....there is no way that this place will die after etheruem go pos, something else will take its place
There will be always new POW coins. But the existing hash is too high now, no other coin can absorb it.

If 0.1% of the Ethereum hashing go to LBRY, it will not be profitable. The price could also drop a lot.

Thanks, so is there any significant difference between powered ribbon and USB risers?
powered ribbon risers tend to fail earlier after many installs, its the bending of the cable back and forth that does it in. the connections/leads inside each section of the ribbon can sever and the ribbon will cease to function or worse fry/short your card. i would use them still but be more careful and inspect carefully between each install.
usb risers utilize a usb cable between two separate little pc boards to house the usb connections. they have a longer reach for mounting and are generally more reliable.
have not heard about the em interference, thats an interesting point.
Hi all! Please help, i have a farm of 6 cards RX 480, and my motherboard Asrock h97.
But i can see fan speed and temperature each cards, no via msi afterburner, asus tweek etc.
Please help, how can i do it.
