I had a disastrous day today. I attempted to add a second PSU to my rig along with a RX480. My rig was 3 r9 380x vid cards and a 750w power supply. Well I fried my motherboard. Which led me to having to get a new mobo, and cpu and memory (local fry's no longer carried lower end mobo that I was using).
Well I got everything hooked up, and the rig when only the RX 480 is hooked up runs just fine. I cannot boot into ubuntu when even 1 of the r9 380x's is plugged into the mobo. It just seems to hang.
Does anyone know if a 380x and rx 480 are not compatible? It seems like they use the same drivers. Not sure what is going on here. Do I just need to throw in the towel and ditch the 380x's and get more rx 480s?
Figured out my problem. My risers were fried too. And one of my 380x's. Have 2 380x and rx480 mining now. Have a new r9 Fury arriving Wednesday...
