Anyone using ASUS Radeon RX 580 8GB Dual-fan OC Edition GDDR5?
I got a pretty good deal for this model but the thing is, I found different opinions someone says it is decent, someone says it has a bad cooling.
Any first hand experiences here? Someone mining with such? What are the temperature, clocks, and what algo are you mining whit it? Do you also have any other model to compare the Asus with it?
Thanks!
I have one with Hynix memory. It doesn't have bad cooling but it doesn't have adequate heat sink. Heat sink doesn't touch the memory chips at all. I added thermal pad but card itself is the hottest on my rig no matter what algo I mine. I get about 31.5 Mh/s on ethash with custom straps at core clock 1170 and mem clock 2190 without memory errors from HWinfo. I want to try mining Gin/lyra2z but so far there's no amd miner for windows.
Also, it runs at 55-65C degrees in 85-95 Fahrenheit hot days. Fan speed around 70-75%
Quick comparison to my other cards:
MSI rx580 Armor - similar in temperature as Armor also has smaller heatsink
MSI rx580 gaming X - runs about 5 to 10C cooler depending on algo
Powercolor rx580 red devil - runs approximately the same T
Asus ROG strix rx580 - runs 10C or more cooler but it has 3 fans, huge heatsink
I know this is not the right thread but trying to help fellow miner
Still it's a good idea to spread the hashpower!
