I've got 2 problems with the tri-x's i'm using:

The first is that a 6th card isn't detected for mining. If I plug it in, I can't mine, but "aticonfig --lsa" shows all 6 cards.

The other is that I'm getting a ridiculous amount of invalids, something like 3-5%.

any idea?
What motherboard, what OS, what pool? 3-5% might be perfectly fine depending on where you are mining and what your ping to the stratum server is.

I'm using BAMT 1.5 on a Gigabyte 990FXA-UD7, and I'm using a pool that usually has a very low reject rate (like 0.3% on average). The cards individually can range from somewhere like 3-10%, but usually average 3-5%.

It may be related, but I keep having one+ cards shutting down. I can't seem to get them to work correctly.

Any idea about using 6?

I would love to find out how you have your cards set in the bamT.conf. I am running 1 Sapphire R9 290X Tri X (model 11227-00-40G) and i am only getting 671 KH/s.

Here is my setup
990FXA-UD5
AMD Sempron 145
Seasonic X850
Sapphire R9 290X Tri X (Model 11227-00-40G)
4GB memory
