4gb cards won't mine anymore?

I have an old rig of 11 Rx 570 4 gb cards that I used to mine ETH then ETC and sometimes RVN.
It went off for a while, and for some reason once I restarted mining I hit upgrade the system. I have been trying to mine anything ever since with no hope.
No matter what I do or which coin I choose I can’t get the system to stay stable for more than 10 mins, I’ve tried Ergo, Zano & ETC, yet nothing.

I even downgraded the system to 0.6-222@230511 since I know polaris cards don’t go well with higher AMD driver, still no hope.

so the question is, are 4 gb cards obsolete now and can’t be used to mine?
Thanks in advance!

Hiveos version is less important, what is important is the driver version and kernel version, downgrading the OS version doesnt change the kernel/driver, only a flash either on your pc or via hive-replace will change those.

For best results with polaris you want to use the 5.15 #110 kernel image and included driver (dont change after flashing this image)

But yes, many coins require more than 4gb cards now. If you arent already on that kernel/image please try flashing it and try mining again
