Upgraded to 5.7b, kept all the same settings and flags but got a crash within an hour of using it.  Using latest Win 10 and June AMD drivers.  Nothing interesting coming from the logfiles.

I'm using 7 x RX 6800's.  

Will try again using July AMD driver.  

I have the Rx 6800 XT which are almost the same and they are really one of the most problematic cards for mining at least in Windows,as I haven't tried them in Linux.The only option I used and kept them running for a few days with Phoenix miner 5.6d was to use a larger -eres option usually -eres 6-8 which can not be affected by DAG recreation as this is the main issue with Rx 6800 cards,they have 16 GB of memory so with this I have been able to run stable for a week at max.

You're right, the issues happen on DAG recreation.  I'll try your tip with the -eres flag as I haven't gotten anything stable for more than a day or so.
