RE: Ethereum AMD GPU Mining Tutorial Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
That depends on how man cards your running. if your running six cards its an extra 18 mhs. which is pretty good! but this is why i mine with RX 580's... the have a bios switch on the card specifically for mining. that eliminates the need for all the undervolting and overclocking messes... longevity is the name of the game here and ive found that these types of things dont do well for the cards... it can fry them over time... super stoked you found all the tutorials helpful. Post back and let us know how your rig is doing
I am running 6 GPUs with the bios switch as well. And so far things are running pretty good! I have only had one blip but not sure what was the cause. Had to do a restart and that was about it. Since then it has been running pretty good. At the moment it is still cool in my area but once it starts to warm up I have to think of how to deal with the heat! I do have a few fans mounted on the rig to get some better air flow but I am not sure if that will be sufficient! I guess I will deal with it when the weather gets warmer!
I got my first rig going in texas and the heat didnt bother em too much. I wouldn't over think it. Now taht im in washington it is going to keep my office warm in the winter hahahaha
I recently rebuilt my rig and now everything mines at 0.00MH/s. Everything has been installed and configured the way it was before. I tried moving the video cards onto difference PCIe slots and difference cables etc. but nothing seems to work. Sometimes I get one or two GPU's to work but the rest are always at 0.000 Mh/s any ideas what is causing this?
Hey sleong! Apologies for the delay I just finished my move to seattle! if you could take a screenshot of the miner startup i could help you even more...
Software setup? the mine.sh file or what setup are you referring to?
When you try to start the miner... it runs script and gives errors... i need a picture of that
After some thought I decided I am going to sell my rig. I initially got started as a hobby as most of us have and due to some changes in the office where I am hosting the rig, I no longer have that space available.
It was a good run while it lasted and learned a lot as well.
