Hello,

I have 5 RX580 8Gb cards under HiveOS.

GPU 1 is always getting HW errors... but the strange thing is that it's happening with any card listed on GPU 1 !



I first thought it came from the card or the riser but I figured out that this is not hardware related problem.

I thought it's the biosmod but I tried with the stock rom and it it does not change anything

I removed the GPU 1 card from the rig and replaced it twice with 2 different GPUs (different risers, power cable...) on the PCI slot. They all got a lot of HW errors…
When they are recognized as GPU 2/3/4/5 they are working without issues.

I also leaved the PCI slot of GPU 1 empty and only pu the cards on the other PCI slots of the motherboard: GPU 0 / GPU 2 / GPU 3 / GPU 4 / GPU 5



But I suppose the computer does assign the PCI slot of GPU 2 (PCIEX1_2) as GPU slot 1. Indeed there are always HW errors indicated in GPU 1…while physically there is nothing on this slot.

I configured the BIOS as indicated in the manufacturer's instructions. (https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html)

I can't figure out what is causing this issue.. ? A BIOS setup? A hardware problem with the motherboard? It's a GA-H110-D3A (Gigabyte). Bios is up to date.

I am using HiveOs and Teamredminer (But also tried under other miner and SimpleminingOs)

Thank you 🙂


Have you tried to leave pcie 16x empty or just don use it? And use all pcie 1x wherever you wanna use and leave pcie 16x empty.

If you had read his issue properly he did leave the PCIe 16 slot empty as he is using the iGPU fot video output.
