Ok, i have successfully setup the 19GPU rig (8 P106-100 mining cards and 11 1060 6GB cards) using i3 7100 processor with 8GB of ram. Currently mining a miserly 410mhs (about 22mh/gpu) using ethminer.

I am now facing issues when i try to overclock this rig, the PCI bus id as per nvidia-smi and the PCI bus id as per lspci -v | grep -i vga is different. This causes issues when i try to start X due to which overclocking is lost to the world.

I tried using Hiveos & Ethos, both simply take their own sweet time booting and simply hang/crash at boot and hence the custom build.

Any help would be appreciated in solving this.

If i use RX570 instead of the 11 1060 6GB then i get a segmentation fault which seems like another massive dead end.


Thanks

Congratulations on the 19-GPU build. Can you give us a quick walkthrough of how you built it? Like did you just plug in all the GPUs at once or did you do it one-by-one?

With regards to overclockcing, what OS and mining software are you using?
From my experience overclock settings should stick even after you start runnning your miner.
