Thanks cryptoillusion1, have edited it.

Re: lowering the clocks, although this will lower the power consumption it still won't address the issue that at the same clocks it is consuming more power than usual ie lower clocks will be consuming same power as the higher clocks were.

The other issue is that the original GPU 0 will only work in the 16x PCI-e slot if connected to any of the PCI-e 1x slots it fails to get picked up.

I was wondering if the clock and settings have not changed from when you altered them - these are stored in the registry and may not have changed
Why don't you reset all the settings to the bios settings
To do this you could open radeon settings and in global settings 'reset' each card and try

GPU not getting picked up- Try (1) install another gpu on 16x -gpu0 not connected - restart (2) switch computer off- install gpu0 on 1x - start computer
if above does not help- reinstall driver

When I check the clocks via HWinfo/GPU-z etc it shows the clocks/voltages being what I have set them to in Claymore 900/950 1150/2200. I lowered the clocks to test if they were stuck and the clocks showed up at what I had changed them to 1100/2150. If the clocks were stuck in the registry would GPU-z etc show the stuck clocks or the clocks I had entered into the config file?

I used DDU to remove the driver, reinstalled blockchain driver. Flashed bios back to stock and the power consumption is still a lot higher than it should be. I tried flashing with a Sapphire RX 580 8gb Hynix memory 'tried and tested' bios from Anorak.tech and same result.
Way higher power consumption than usual at same clocks/voltages.

Tried powering rig down, unplugging GPU 0, plugging one of the other GPU's into the 16x slot, booting through to Windows, powering down, connecting 'GPU 0' to any of the other PCI-e slots and booting up. MB and Windows don't 'see the card.

Thanks once again for helping me with this issue, it's frustrating the heck out of me.

As a side note, the rig is running smoothly atm with GPU 0 in the PCI-e slot and claymore runs on sake clocks and voltage as it originally did with same Mh/s but still with way higher than usual power consumption.

Think I may reflash to stock bios, reinstall Windows and see if starting from 'fresh makes any difference.
