Hi i have one PROBLEM. I am using HiveOS on 6x Sapphire RX 570 GPU rig and everything works ok only LAST gpu (gpu5) is having 20W more power usage then others. Others have 80w , last one has 100w. I tried lowering clocks and voltages, it does not help too much. All settings are the same just that last one has 20w more power usage. No idea why. C
Can anyone help ?
Tnx

It could be that this particular card just needs more juice to get things done.
I've come across cards that no matter what you throw at them, they won't function below/above a certain number, while others can/will.

That's the silicon lottery. You can have the exact same cards, from the same brand, same memory manufacturer, and they can still be vastly different in terms of performance.

That being said, you could try checking the card's BIOS to make sure there are no weird settings set. You could try a different riser. Easy to do is just grab this card and swap places with GPU0, for instance. see if the problem moves with card or stays with the riser. Basically, the general troubleshooting.
