So i bought a RX580 8gb only got some risers today so tried putting it in a rig with some Nvidia cards and i am so triggered right now been struggling all evening.Drivers crashing system freeze.Going to put it in another pc alone when i get another psu to see whats up.This is my first amd card i bought for mining anyone experience these issues?
 
Hmmm, i have never has a good experience dual mining AMD & NVidia cards on Windows due to the AMD drivers always failing. Your best bet is test that the card actually works in another pc.

If the card works i suggest give HiveOS a bash, its nerve wrecking at first, but it will save you a whole lota time and headache, you dont need to worry about drivers, hashrate drops etc mining in windows is poopeh. Not much help but thats my 2c ;)

Good luck
 
No i only checked device manager then it show unknown display divice or something then i installed driver
Mmmm, cant remember if I had AMD drivers installed when I did dual mining in my personal rig. I ran a RX580 and a GTX1080 and never had any crashes.

Thanks man yea i know i should use Hive but Nicehash was ez to start with.The card work cause i did a benchmark test on it but as soon as i load up some overclocks and start mining it start with the shiieet.I think Microsoft has a thing for Nvidia :)

I haven't updated my Windows in a while but still windows should already have an amd driver
 
So turns out the cards is faulty put it on a seperate motherboard and it mined for 30 minutes and crashed after that tried reinstalling drivers few times after using ddu to uninstall.Nope it just got worse and worse it could not even get past driver install before get black screen.I contacted the guy i bought it from he lives in the town next to me and he was willing to give me a Armor 1070 instead.So today a friend of mine will do the swop and pickup.The gpu was opened so i wonder if he baked it and it worked when he was testing it i just have this feeling.Anyways i am just happy not to lose my money.Will test the 1070 when i get it.Be carefull guys.
