AMD 6600xt in hiveOS

Pierre,

I have never used a Beta branch before, but I would assume the release is for the main branch. I’m no expert but a Beta is usually a version before the main software is updated. I would expect that all the functionality you have presently is now in the main branch but more development might be required to fully support in the GUI.

Can you OC in the miner itself?

Are we good to just force push the update from the HiveOS GUI while running the Beta?

I tried to do so, however I can not force to update. It looks like we need to install another hiveos

From changelog of last update, 0.6-208@210818
Notes about AMD RX 6600 series support: currently requires Beta image. Support will be added to the updated Stable image which will be uploaded in the next several hours

I am not sure the OC control works. It says “default power play fromVBIOS for navi20 card”

Also the max memory clock is only 1200

What value you’re expected? 1200 it’s bigger than 6700/6800/6900 has which have 1075. It’s equal to 2400 in Windows driver


46W core and ~70W from the wall

Thank you very much for these settings! Pretty sure you can go higher in memory clock and improve a bit your hashrate.
Did you manage to pass on 06-208 update on hiveos? If yes does the OC works on 6600 XT?

Yes it’s taken from rig with latest update 0.6-208

Even with the Notes about AMD RX 6600 series support: currently requires Beta image. Support will be added to the updated Stable image which will be uploaded in the next several hours ?

yup even with that note, i upgraded my hive os version from beta to 0.6-208@210818, and the oc setting is works, previosly on beta version my 6600 xt hasrate only got 28.5, and the oc setting is not works

but now on 0.6-208@210818 with the oc works, it’s 30.8mh

Ok, if it will be more clear for you - screenshots are taken from rig updated to v0.6-208 and use Beta Image.
As mentioned above Stable and Beta images will be updated today to provide support for RX 6600 out from the box.

Can’t get it done can you make a screen of all your settings

i’m using HaloGenius’s setting from the above, thanks for him

but we can only max 1075? setting it above causes a reduction to 1000. Is this some software limit?

Hi! I bought a RX 6600 RX and installed it, I have upgraded to 0.6-208@210818. It founds every card but when it comes to OC if fails;

Detected 9 AMD cards

ERROR: No cards available for OC!

AMD driver version is A20.40 (5.9.0325). Isn’t that a little bit old, manually update it?

Anyone knows what’s wrong? My OC are fine, I have double checked it!

Do you have a Beta version of the system?

currently, yep

No, no beta. I thought the stable version had been updated, but I’m installing beta image right now. Let see if that helps!

EDIT It works after upgrading to beta image. Thanks for the help!

Updated Stable and updated Beta already on web site and available in hive-replace

Just to be clear here;
What you are all saying is; the lasted stable version (NON-BETA) still doesn’t have support for the cards - well at least mine doesn’t detect any cards).

The BETA version does see them, but no OC options available and sometimes crashes.
