hi all, I have a rig with 8 RX 580 4GB Nitro + using smos which was working fine for couple of months. Since couple of weeks started throwing a lot of errors on the screen:

[ 848.039335] pcieport 0000:00:1c.1: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Physical Layer, id=00e1(Receiver ID)

and this keeps repeating.
I replaced all the risers, switched the ports used by the cards, and this keeps going against the same port always and rig is unstable.

Any hints for me?

thanks in advance

Sounds like a bad pcie extender. Another thought, depending on your location, summer temperatures are here and you may need to dial back your overclock settings slightly for the warmer temperatures.

When you say you replaced the risers, did you replace the entire riser (PCIe to USB adapter at MB, USB 3.0 cable and the riser itself)?

Yes, everything from the pcie port on the motherboard to the riser itself and the riser.

Try with one working riser and gpu and try system with every pcie ports. ( Forexample  connect one riser to pcie0 boot system and try mining u look it iseems ok then shutdown and try other pcie port.. ) if al works one port fails it can be motherboard side problem.
if all ports works then maybe problem is psu side.
if u didnt already change usb pen/ssd / try with fresh one.

thats all i remember when i am facing smilar problems. hope it helps.

thank you for the hints, i will try this evening and come back with details.

best regards

hi, I flashed again the usb stick and everything started to work good again.

thank you

You are welcome,

Most of the time, reflashing usb stick or changing with new one solves the problem  Smiley
