The first proven casualty of RX 480s.. 3 of them actually.
While mining ETH on a el-cheapo MB, on non-powered (!!) risers.

He made the noob mistake of mining multi GPU without powered-risers and paid the price. hehe
To be fair, this could happen for other multi-GPU mining setups as well and it did in the past. This is why miners pay a few $ extra for molex-powered risers to supply additional power to the GPU, rather than going through the MB.
oh nice!!! With this report , No miner can abuse RX 480 just like R9 290X
