Re: 5700 XT GAMING OC 8G (rev. 2.0)

Which operating system and program are you using to measure wattage? Sometimes some programs like GPUz misread the power state and read it as one level higher which would account for the 20w difference sometimes under Windows. I'm assuming the fan profiles and RPM are the same. It's possible they made hardware changes on Rev 2 but I haven't pulled mine apart to compare my rev 2 to pictures of rev 1.

Sorry for the delay on this, the modified bios is on my windows OS drive, I've recently switched to HiveOS. I just need to retrieve the bios from the windows drive and I will send to you. Unless I can do this out of HiveOS, I'm really not very familiar with Linux, at all.

I'm using HiveOS, having just switched from Windows 10. However, I am still using Phoenix Miner, which is what I was using in Windows as well. Showed the same wattage difference between rev 1 & rev 2

I used the rev 1 bios to mod as well as there is no rev 2 specific bios that I could find either from Gigabyte or techinsights. However, prior to the bios mod, with stock settings on both rev1 & rev2 I had a 20w difference as well.

I'll send you the bios mod when I get chance.

5700 XT GAMING OC 8G (rev. 2.0)

Question regarding the Rev 2.0 of the Gigabyte 5700 XT GAMING OC 8G. I've got 6 of the rev 1.0 and 2 of the rev 2.0 cards running in the same rig. I've got the same BIOS Mod on every card, same OC and UV settings on each card. The rev 2.0 cards run at about 20 watts higher then the rev 1.0. It was also the same with stock bios and settings. Does anyone have any idea why this would be the case, what is different between rev 1 & rev 2?

Re: Bitmain E3 Ethash Miner ASIC (Shipping:16-31 July. $800 USD)

I'm having issues trying to mine ETP (Metaverse) via pool or solo. I've tried metaverse.farm (pool) and 2miners.com (solo). I setup pool 1 as ETP, and pool 2 and 3 are for ethermine, where I've been successfully mining ETH with no problems. The connection shows alive, but the ASIC status never goes to 00, it only ever shows BB, or CC. I've have not been able to find out what those status' mean. It appears to try mining on pool 1 for a bit, and them moves down to pool 2, and then after about 8 minutes I believe the miner resets. The status only ever shows BB or CC. I've tried with a PW (x) and without, and with WALLETADDRESS.USERNAME, and without a username. Anyone have any ideas?

Received mine today, have it mining on Ethermine, no real issues other than it does not show a reported hashrate. The miner is showing around 193 MH average, and it shows an actual hashrate on ethermine, just no reported hashrate. Just curious if this is normal for the Antminer?
noticed the same but payouts are happening so I ignored it
Ok, thanks. I wasn't too concerned about it, as long as I could see it was actually mining. I just like the consistency of seeing the reported hashrates of all of my miners. This is my first non-gpu miner.
