Hi, i am using mixed rig with 4 rtx 2060 and 1 rx 6600xt with nbminer.
Gpu starts mining normally but after a while some card stops mining and gets undetected like in screen, it is not Always the same card, just randomly one crashes
All this happened since i added the amd card to the rig.
I am on latest hiveos version, thanks in advance if someone can help
I’ve got 3 RX6600XT, all different “flavors” (manufacturers, models). Running mine on core at 1100, VDD at 600, mem at 1150. Shows around 60W of power draw on each card, although that probably isn’t accurate. I have a watt meter on the way to put inline with the AC supply. It does seem to crash every 12 hours or so and recover, I haven’t determined why as yet. At the settings above, my cards are mining at about 32.8MH/s mining Ethereum using Phoenixminer.
I have a very similar issue.
If my mainboard has 6 pci-e slots, then when 5 are full connecting the 6th never works.
I tried this on 3 different boards. Each time you fill to the last PCI-E slot, it doesn’t mine. If you leave one pci-i slot free, it works perfectly fine.
I’ve replicated this behavior now on multiple brands of board (asrock, asus and gigabyte). It is not the boards because if I take 2060 supers and fill all the slots it works fine. This behavior ONLY occurs with 6600XT’s and it’s fucking annoying as hell.
Yes “fucking annoying as hell” is correct.Its my 4th card that won’t get recognised ,so intresting to hear your issue.
Glad to hear you think this is only a 6600XT issue, and not the motherboard.
Ive seen posts on here of 4x 6600XT running ok, so maybe a conflict if using with other mixed GPU rig’s .
I don’t know .Hopefully future updates will short this out.
I am also still having the same issue. I have 2 separate rigs of 6600xts so far. Both work great with 4 cards. As soon as you add the fifth Hive fails to apply OC settings. Then only 4 of the cards hash but without the OC settings the rig begins to over hear.
Hopefully they can come out with an update to fix this issue. To expensive to run these rigs with only 4 cards on them. It would be one thing if they were 3090s.
Your Motherboard chipset or CPU might not have enough PCI-e lanes available to connected directly…
Some chipsets (like the B450 ) have limited PCI-e lanes compared to the higher end chipsets
Low end Gen 1 Ryzen also have cut down PCI-e lanes available too
M.2 NVME can use up PCI-e lanes so use SSD’s
Update the BIOS then "disable the CSM and enable the "Above 4G decoding
Set the PCI-e speed x1 @ Gen 2
will upgrade to 39.2 see if the variance I’m seeing in these cards change
I have 6 MERC’s and 2 QWIK’s but a good variance in reported wattage and hashrate.
