Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.2 (Windows/Linux)
Funky artifacts including jagged black triangles on screen
sounds like VRAM that's unstable (too low voltage, too high clock, too tight timings, etc)
I bet if rip the plate off it says Hynix on those chips.
gpu-z is reporting Samsung RAM but it must use a bit of Hynix for something.OMG stay away from MSI and cards with Hynix RAM or you'll end up so butt-hurt your asshole will drag on the ground behind you as you walk.
what the problem with the hynix all my gpus are hynix and they doing very well, support the most tight timing and clocks and very stable, i got recently 2 samsung and what a pain to make its stable.
I can confirm MSI 470 + hynix memory are somehow fucked. I bought 30 cards like month ago and 7 are dead already. Complete headache. I wish i knew it earlier.
The Armor or Gaming X?
i killed a msi gaming x 470 with hynix ram last week.
Apparently there is no RX470, AMD went from 460 to 480. The 470 is just an overclocked 460 with 4GB that the mfg's decided to call a 470. They (the mfg's) had no reference design, stuffed in ram they found in a recycling bin and pawned them off on unsuspecting consumers.
That being said, I'll be getting some rx460's with 4GB samsung ram later this week for half the cost of a 480.
