What can I do with the AMD Radeon GPU?
AMD Radeon Settings now allows the GPU to be optimized for Graphics or Compute Workloads. Switching to Compute Workload should provide better performance with Blockchain Compute applications. More information on Blockchain Compute technology can be found online.
Why is my Radeon R9 295X2 not working?
If one 295X2 is OK then the problem is probably the motherboard/bios/memory, not the drivers. I don’t do mining but I use 10x 295X2 running in 3 computers for computation. One MB runs 4x 295×2 for 8 GPUs no problem. One reason that 6 or 7 GPUs can fail is because the BIOS’s Above 4G setting is off.
How to enable compute mode on AMD Radeon video card?
Radeon Software allows one to easily optimize GPUs for mining without any additional apps or special drivers. How to enable Compute Mode? Head to the display driver settings. You’ll need to switch modes for each particular card in your PC.
How to change the workload of AMD Radeon?
