Hi,

I have a rig with 4 rx580 (2 pulse and 2 nitro se) with modded bios (changed memory straps) and I've tested different OS (smos, ethos, w10) with different settings (with overclock, undervolt,...) but the power at wall is too high (about 1500W on w10, 1400W on ethos and 1150W on smos). PSU is a corsair 850 (80 plus bronze), so:

- I don't know which is the problem, could be the PSU? the power monitoring gadget (it's a tplink hs110 smart plug)?

Thank you in advance

Set your undervolt setting in your miner program, I have those cards and they draw 80-90 watts each undervolted. If you use claymore to do this run it for 1 min then close the miner and reopen otherwise it doesn't seem to take properly if using win 10.
