RigelMiner XEL Failure: Likely Miner/Config Issue

No — the rig stayed on the same 536.23. I re-ran the hardware check and XEL started mining immediately with OneZeroMiner, showing an adequate hashrate.

That suggests the problem is with RigelMiner or its XEL implementation: IRON mines fine on the same RigelMiner at ~240W, so the hardware looks OK.

My suspicion is a miner/plugin bug, config or pool mismatch, driver/firmware compatibility issue, or a stratum/worker problem rather than a GPU or power fault.

Analysis

The working XEL hash in OneZeroMiner plus normal IRON performance on RigelMiner points to software or configuration problems specific to RigelMiner's XEL implementation (miner bug, incompatible driver...

Recommendation

Check RigelMiner version and XEL plugin support, compare the Rigel and OneZeroMiner configs (algorithm, pool, port, worker), review RigelMiner logs for errors, try a different pool or rollback GPU dri...
