so I am mining Stellite and am using 8 rx580's running driver 18.6.1. when i get connected to the pool for about 3 minutes all 8 gpu's are recognized and hashing. after that it drops to only 4 gpu's hashing. running this on windows 10. Any ideas on how to resolve.

Thanks

What is the best driver version to use for these cards for mining Stellite. I read somewhere that past a certain driver version would not work for mining this on windows 10? Thanks in advance

So i am using amr-stak with 8 msi rx580's armor oc. im getting about 3000 h/s and only pulling about 700 watts from the wall. Is this a decent hash rate. i have already made sure my gpu's are on compute mode and i have done whatever overclocking i can through msi afterburner. if my hash rate is too low what should i be doing differently? What's strange is when the miner starts the difficulty always decreases to about 400 before any of my shares are accepted by the pool.

thanks for your help.

You can do the polaris one click flash or use the paid version you can find it here:

https://mining-bios.eu/product/polaris-bios-editor-3-pro-pbe-3-pro-performance-timings/

But first read about it and make sure you know what you're doing, I personally like the paid version more, but it's your choice, check the site and read about it.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for the help. i will definitely look through it all. Dont trust myself to do it quite yet.

If you flash them you will still consume nearly as much power and by flashing a BIOS the cards are never as stable as they are on default settings, so if you are getting 28.3 Mhs on each one of them by mining ethereum it is a really good hashrate.

If you need to flash them or would like to ,there are a lot of guides, in google, youtube and including this very specific area of the forum, just do a search.

yeah i am pretty happy with what i was able to achieve here without flashing. im pretty new and don't trust myself to do the flashing properly. now if i can just figure out how to mine stellite on smos ill be good to go. i am having an issue where i connect to the pool and get logged in but hashing never happens. very weird.

Hi guys. I am a total noob at this. so i have a mining cave riserless rig that came with smos installed on a 120 gb ssd. i have windows 10 on a bootable usb. when i boot my rig to try to get to the bios to change the boot, i can't seem to find it. it just goes to a bunch of code. Any ideas. i am trying to do this so i can bios mod my rx580's. unless there is a way to connect my cards to my laptop to bios mod them. any help is appreciated,

Thanks
