4x vegas dual mining with no undervolt? That could be using more than 1200W. Check your consumption because you could be hitting the limits of your PSU.

@syncis

Not sure about cutting down on instances, but for the disk make sure you turn off the recycle bin, and if you're feeling adventurous you could turn off restore points. Each one uses 10% of the drive IIRC. Also the Claymore logs can add up after a while.

So would I need to set that in the wattman panel or by using the claymore config file?

Sorry pretty new to mining like this so am on a steep learning curve with these cards.

thanks for coming back so fast fella

You can check your real consumption with a wattmeter. You can use HWiNFO64, GPU-Z, or MSI Afterburner to get a rough "chip power" or "core power" reading (at least with any earlier cards...not 100% sure about Vega), but it will be less than your real consumption, because it doesn't account for memory or other subsystems of the card.

I would recommend latest stable Afterburner if you want to try undervolting if it will work (again...not 100% sure about Vega support). If not I guess you could use Wattman, but it's not the best tool. You could also try OverdriveNTool. Just google them for download links.
