Topic: Where to buy HDMI DUMMY PLUGS on eBay ? Aliexpress? (Read 2572 times)
never had a problem myself, running rx480's too
2 Rx 470s and no other GPU cards:
The only reason I use the on-board VGA is so I can use an old monitor with only analog VGA input when I setup the BIOS & install Linux.
Code:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device 67df (rev cf)
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device 67df (rev cf)

Strange it works for you because even with onboard video enabled and a monitor plugged into the onboard video, one GPU always hashes at 4MH/s.
I did have problems similar to what you're describing (first card staying in the lowest dpm state) when I first tried the AMDGPU-Pro drivers. I think it was kernel 4.4 and AMDGPU 16.30.
With >= 4.8/16.40 everything is hunky-dory.

units dont boot on a reboot without a monitor or a dummy plug. well RX cards anyway
I don't use dummy plugs on any of my rigs. I'm currently using the on-board VGA in my Rx 470 rig, but it would boots fine with the on-board VGA disabled as well. Tried this with H97 Anniversary boards and with an Asus z87.
Are all the GPUs in the rig the RX series? Or do you have 1 GPU that's like an 280X? Because with all my rigs if all the GPUs are RX series, then one of them will hash at 4MH/s until you connect a monitor to it momentarily.

$3 from aliexpress. Gives full HD resolution when using teamviewer.

So that works as a dummy plug with no VGA plugged into it whatsoever? (newbie here)
Yep. Plug that into the GPU in your main pcie slot. That adapter doesn't need to connect to anything.
Awesome, thanks. I have some DP->VGA ones laying around that might work then as well?

Stupid question, why you need it ?!?!?
What I bought was this. Which pretty much doesn't do anything
So you are saying I need something that comes with a big box like so?
Exactly - first version is without active IC chip.So you are saying I need something that comes with a big box like so?
Second version should be OK.
Second version also doesn't do jack shit for me. Just buy the Fit-PC EDID plugs from amazon, $9.5 is a good price.
