6x asus gtx 1070 mining rig problems & settings

Hello all!
I have a mining rig with the following components:
Motherboard: ASUS PRIME Z270-A LGA1151
Processor:INTEL G3900 3,3GHz BOX LGA1151
RAM: SODIMM DDR4 Intenso Value 4GB 2133MHz PC4-17000
SSD: TRANSCEND(TS64GSSD370S) 64GB SATA3 2,5" Bulk
2x Power supply: GIGABYTE B700H 700W ATX
6x GPU's: ASUS DUAL-GTX1070-O8G GeForce GTX 1070 8GB
6x PCI-E Express 1X to 16X graphics card Riser Card USB 3.0 Extender Cable with Power Supply

I mine with claymore pool on w10 - about 180+h/s
For now it is stable exept of 1 interuption per day with claymore it says that the program is shuting down 5/6 cards. So only 1 card mines with 30h/s and other 5 have 0h/s. If i close and open the miner again all works fine again.
Has someone some optimal settings in the msi afterburner for this tipe of rig? Currently i have power 100, core 100, memory 580 and fan 80.
-now i have a new problem it says: miner thread hangs, need to restart miner!

Thanks for the answers Wink

Is it safe to use two PSUs for a single rig?  Could this be the reason? I don't know never tried.
Are you using powered risers? Faulty (cheap) risers are also quite common issue.
How about temperatures? Do you check them?

Simple solution could be some script restarting your rig every 10 hours. Definitely not prefered but quick solution. 



I have risers listed above 9e per piece. Temperature is about 60c average. I think the psus are not the reason...

2x PSU? Oh boy. Not saying it won't work, but I hope you know how to deal with problems that are unique to double PSU Grin

What problems do you mean?

Hello to all that will help me with my questions (and sorry to all for my bad english)
I come from Slovenia Smiley

So, I'm new to the cryptocurrency game and i wanted to start mining some ethereum. The problem is - I'm a total noob at everything. I do know that i need 6 graphic cards (gpu mining?) and a procesor Tongue and some other stuff.
Then i need to connect to some pool - how?
I need also a wallet. Then im interested when i will mine etherium, how will i get etherium on my wallet with mining.
I have a budget around 4k €.
And I pay more than $0.08/kwh for electricity (that have something to do with the graphic card consumption?)

So if anyone can explain the things to me please i will be very thankful (what Computer Components do i need(which are the best), how to set up everything...
