Replacement motherboard didn't solve the issue of not being able to run 4gpus. Same exact issue and I've made sure it wasn't the riser or the gpu. The pcie lanes are all fine and everything runs smoothly on 3 gpus regardless of pcie lanes i use. Maybe it's the psu... :/ I guess another rma is in the works lol

I ended up sticking the r9 290 into my gaming rig and took the gtx 670 ftw+ out for sale in the mean time haha. Unexpected upgrade!

What Mobo and sorry if I missed original problem but did you do the a1-b17 pin mod either on the Mobo or on the riser if its what I think it is

Msi g46. Problem was not being able to run 4 gpus at a time. My second motherboard runs 4gpus no problem. Thought it was the pcie 1x being bad so got a new one through rma. I believe it might be the psu.

Not sure what mod you're talking about but like I said, the other motherboard runs 4gpus fine

This is a diagram of the mod I was talking about but if you have 4 cards running on the exact same setup I don't see it being the problem.  When you say not being able to run 4 at a time can you detail what is happening?  PSU would let 4 run then either crash system when they tried to go full power once cgminer revved up.  Also are your risers powered or non?  Just trying to help isolate the problem avoid swapping parts to RMA that might not be necessary.

I've concluded that it's the PSU.  I think the 12v5 rail is bad since my computer will crash when I have a GPU running on that particular rail.  I tried different risers and GPUs... everything works fine and it's my second motherboard.

Sent Lepa a request for advanced RMA.

I messed up a pcie 1x port initially and got a wild hair to try and repair, didn't seem to fix it and I've given up trying lol sadly this is now a 3 GPU system so I moved the 4th card to a different system.  Couple months hopefully the 290 price wars will fall and I can get some of those that aren't marked up 100+ what they were supposed to be.

I'm not sure it would get used much tbh, although when I first started I sure was looking for one haha.  I thought Microguy was working on something for the forums at some point.

Yea, I dont think it would get much use either, just tossing the idea out there.

Just as a FYI, I was asked via support email why the pool charges fees. The short answer is to pay for the server and ensure that the pool is available and fast at all times. The remainder of the fees are returned to the pool in the form of giveaways, so the more we mine the more is returned to the community.

Donations on the other hand are sitting nicely in my wallet thanks to everyone who donates.

As always if anyone has any suggestions for the pool let me know.

Thanks CircuitSix you sure are one active pool manager and your pool and site are top notch.

Thanks Irish

I will be updating the server tonight so I am estimating about 10 minutes downtime to do so. The following will occur:
1. Complete system backup
2. Additional RAM resources added
3. Database enhancements to improve speed.

As a precaution please make sure that if you have confirmed coins that they are withdrawn. I do not expect any problems with the upgrade, it is just better safe then sorry. I will be posting this announcement on the site as well. Update will occur around 10pm EST 

[CircuitSix]

Pool will be coming back up soon, backups are almost complete.
