Hi All,

thank you for the comments.. I have been using the patcher!   I could get the 6 rx 470s working fine but the 580 showing the triangle and then the screen would go black and I would have the 580 showing without the triangle but all the 470s would have it, as if they switch.

I am using a msi z170 gaming pro carbon motherboard with custom bios, I disable 4G before installing drivers and Peg 0 and 1 set to 1 and then after drivers and patch were installed I would enable 4G..... I get a black screen when booting into windows. I tried Peg 2 with no luck.

I might have to go back to Ethos, but I really like the performance I can get on windows.

Hi Everyone,

Just wondering if someone could please lend me a hand.

I have 6 RX 470s and 1 Rx 580, once I install the driver and patch it I get windows to see the rx470s with the yellow triangle and the ! but the rx580 is recognized just fine.. Then I restart and get a black screen.

I am able to get the 6 Rx 470s to work by own their own but not with the 580. Can they be mixed?

Suggestions or ideas welcomed. Thank you for any help you can provide me.

Did you have to do the bios flash from that link I posted? or it just worked?


Also... Would it work then ok with any OS I decide to use?

Thank you so very much for the help, very much appreciated.

Mine is the MSI Z170A Gaming pro, would that be a problem? Also can I run Ethos with that? or what would you suggest is better.

Thank you!

Hi Everyone,

I hope some could please give me a hand. I am new to the mining game and today I decided to buy my parts to start doing it.

I bought some parts, but I am starting to think I might have some issues with it... I bought the MSI Z170A motherboard but at the shops, they flashed an updated bios so it could take the Intel G4560. (That was the only cpu they had available).

I just google how people set up their bios with the Z170A and it seems you require to do a bios flash to get the 6 gpus working.

I am afraid that if I flash it that bios on the link above then the gpu I have won't work...  I haven't opened it yet, so I might still have the opportunity to return the CPU to the shop.... Could anyone please tell me with this motherboard and cpu can work together to run Ethos 1.21?

I thank you all in advance and I really hope someone can give me a hand.

Thanks!
