Hy, I am using Win 10 too, and the aug 13 version of the beta driver. I have more than 30+ Sapphire RX470 8Gb and claymore's -cvddc option to 990 is stable on all machines.

Had the same problem, but Claymore's miner v10.0 solved it, using -cvddc.

Greetings

what did you add?  I run 10 but still see issue on a few machines

You just got to experiment on your own as each card is going to be different. I have some GPUs that will run fine at -cvddc 875, others need a higher voltage such at -cvddc 900. I even have a few cards that need even more voltage going as high as 950 mv. You may even have to adjust individual cards within a rig, which is fairly simple as values can be comma separated, so you might need do something like: -cvvdc 875,875,900,950,875 for a five card rig with a couple of power hungry cards in the mix.

that driver causes some of my RX cards to go down to 7 hash until i restart miner.  I can happen 4-5 times a day or not at all for a day then it starts again.  It happens on like 20 % of my machines.  It's weird but something you just put up with.

The driver is bad not because of the volt settings but because they never released it for Windows 7.

Win 7 is probably the most common OS out there.

The Blockchain driver beta has a lot of problem here,

especially the voltage setting, really a big shit,

but looks like AMD has no purpose to fix it -- last release is 23,aug

It's mean ... will we use this shit forever?

Use Overdrive Tool, works perfectly.

I tried, some card work perfectly, but some card not, even use the DDU and reinstall driver.
If it happened, I need to change a pcie slot to fix.

Polaris owners were very fortunate amd released it. Thanks amd cause if it was not then your polaris would be doing 24mh/s and soon 18mh/s hehe

No-no-no.

If AMD doesn't fix,  the 3 million RX cards will be release to second-hand market, and Nv cards will be sold out.

That is a really disaster for AMD.

As they have already done blockchain driver. I think they will release corrections, because amd is a large company with a reputation, but it may not be soon
