      Ok so I have everything setup I have a Gigabyte Z77X-UP7 board, connected to 3 ASUS R9 280X GPUs via USB PCIE risers, a 1,350 Watt Silverstone Zeus PSU, 8 GB of RAM, and an Intel Celeron processor.
      It will boot up fine and start running after I configure it, but after a period of time the system will completely lock up, but still produce a lot of heat to the cards but no hashing… But while it runs and hashes for a while It will only use the first 2 GPUs to full capacity the whole time, and the third GPU will start strong and then drop down to only 130KHash/sec
      I was using SMOS 1.2, as the lockups seemed to be even worse with SMOS 1.3, should i just use BAMT has anyone else had these issues?

        I have two of the exact same rigs I built with the same setup… Both are having the same exact issue, so it’s not a defect in the hardware, something is up with the OS…
        If anyone can help it would be much appreciated
