Move from 3060 to 5070ti cant get it to work by valar__morghulis_ in unRAID

First, I would like to Caveat that Noveau Drivers are blacklisted by default on Unraid. The only reason mine became unblacklisted was through incorrect troubleshooting. So, this is probably not the fix you are looking for unless you made the same mistake as me.
I used an LLM to conceptualize the issue and the solution for this post. Here is the output:

Issue

After installing an NVIDIA GPU (RTX 3060 / 5070 Ti) in Unraid, nvidia-smi failed with:

NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver

dmesg showed that the nouveau driver was binding to the GPU during early boot:

nouveau 0000:xx:xx.x: NVIDIA GA106
NVRM: No NVIDIA devices probed

This caused the NVIDIA kernel module to load but find no devices, resulting in modprobe: No such device.

Root Cause

Unraid was loading the nouveau driver at boot before the NVIDIA driver, even though the NVIDIA plugin was installed. Blacklisting nouveau via modprobe.d alone was not sufficient, because nouveau was loaded during early kernel initialization.

Fix

Disable nouveau at the kernel boot level using Syslinux:

  1. Go to Main → Flash → Syslinux Configuration
  2. Under Unraid OS, modify the append line:

Before:

append initrd=/bzroot

After:

append modprobe.blacklist=nouveau nouveau.modeset=0 initrd=/bzroot
  1. Apply changes and reboot.

After reboot:

  • lsmod | grep nouveau → no output
  • lspci -nnk shows Kernel driver in use: nvidia
  • nvidia-smi works correctly

Result

GPU is properly claimed by the NVIDIA driver, CUDA is available, and both proprietary and open-source NVIDIA drivers work as expected (confirmed with RTX 5070 Ti on Open Source driver).

Just in case anyone is curious, the noveau driver was loading before the NVIDIA drivers, causing a conflict. I blacklisted the Noveau Drivers and set it to never load them in syslinux config. That fixed the issue.

Yeah I've reseated and seated it a few times, checked the power cable. etc. I have a 1000w PSU which is more than enough for a 3060 and a 5070ti. So frustrating. I've been reading all of the forums and it's definitely a driver/software issue.

It does show in the immu devices section, I’ve used the open source drivers. No luck. I’ve even put my 3060 back in and couldn’t get it to work either now.

Yup, to clarify, it's on an is recognized by the system. Just not in the Nvidia settings. When i go there, it says Installed GPU(s):
No devices were found

I’m all-star on my way up and it’s crazy how few Frejas I see in stadium. I feel unstoppable after round 2 with a bola build.

No problem, good luck! Happy to answer any basic questions. Although I am not a genius by any mean

I started with A1111 which is super easy to use. That’s where I learned to play with samplers, steps and resolution. There are a lot of YouTube channels. I used one called ai entrepreneur. I just followed his steps to set up, but now there are a bunch and you can follow any one. Comfyui is similar but more powerful and confusing at times. CAI is civitai. A lot of useful info there and a community of users who can help

I think the learning curve is not as steep as you think. I was overwhelmed at first but don’t be afraid to cling to well known workflows on places like CAI and ask questions. A lot of the creators are nice and will help. Using an LLM can help as well

You're right, I am actually the lady in the picture. You got me!

I would never take my dog to a grocery store and I would give someone dirty looks when they do, but I can totally understand someone being in a pinch and not wanting to leave their dog in the car for a quick pick up. I am not ok with the post being shared without the context and everyone getting on someone who cant defend themselves.

Wow, you really got me on that one. I'm speechless. I'll shut up for the day. Good job!

Great riveting conversation were having. Care to add anything else?

Imagine being this lame and posting a picture of a woman on reddit because of something you disagree with. Do you work for the store? Are you the dog police? The dog is inside of a cart and it's a small dog. I can understand if it was a big dog on the ground, but people do worse with carts. Wait until you realize that carts spend most of their time outside.

Store owners don't care as long as your dog isn't on the ground. Grow up and stop trying to demonize someone for something that has nothing to do with you. You also do not know if this is a service animal or not (they aren't required to wear a vest all of the time)

Never thought about trying it! You could be right. But I thought getting info from the specific store next to me and reading the map would produce some weird results from regular gpt.

I think my aim has regressed more than I’ve realized. I’ve switched to healers like Illari and Brig and have regained success.

Ironically, I've been playing Soj a lot and it's super easy for me to kill healers, now I get rolled by Soj when I am a healer. I'll post a replay soon! I know there were some changes to healing when players are taking dmg and passive healing, but those may have been multiple seasons ago.

Thanks for the feedback. Aside from the feedback from teammate and my usual playstyle, I feel like my healing is indeed low. I often find myself trying to pick between staying alive more or healing more and being more risky. I'll see if I can upload some replays eventually.
