You can check the Equihash mining speed of Vega on https://www.crypto-coinz.net/ in the calculator.

I followed hellaes instructions. Step by step. Vega 56 without flashing to vega 64.
Every time I turn off miner or restart it - all settings are gone and hashrate is again 600-600. I DDU drivers, reinstalled all again and it mines nicely around 1000 and 850 hash per card. Until restart..
What could be wrong?
It seems that driver crashes on miner exit. Maybe memory clocked to high or voltage is to low for you card

Tried with HBM memory 900 also and power limit -20. Still same case.. Sad
Or gigabyte cards are worst? Smiley

anyone testing hashrate with softplay mod?
speed/watt?
with amd-stak 4gpu i got 7700hs/675watt, on pool 24h average result 7850hs, earning around 3% above whattomine calculator
happy with stak,
vega seems most stable gpu like fury series

I ditched the afterburner. The frequencies jumped between values i set and boosted/reference values like crazy.

2x Vega 56, flashed with 64 bios, blockchain drivers, using oldcomer's softplay mod.
4GB DDR3, 70GB vram, HBCC on (don't have slider, but toggle)

Power draw from the wall is 320W (-50W pc, gives about 135W per card).

0,1 threads intensity: 2016, 1800
2,3 threads intensity: 1900, 1800 - i have monitor connected to the second vega

Initial hashrate:


But it wont stay up for long... in the first minute it drops by 300-400


Overdrive settings:


HWInfo:


Any thoughts why my hashrate is dropping?

Either HBCC is turning off somehow (some other program or task starting?) or your fans aren't high enough (put em around at least 3000) to keep the HBM mem cool enough to sustain the high hashrate

How much hashrate produces vega 64 with HSR? the Nvidia 1080ti make about 22mhs, and vega 56? thank you .
HSR is not memory-hyper-intensive algo, so don't expect better then 1080ti results from Vega ...

Understand thanks , and which is best coin/algo for amd vega ? power comsuption ? .

It was discussed many times in this thread.
Cryptonight, Cryptonight-Lite, ETH+LBC, ETH - are best for Vega.
Power consumption depends on your settings and algo and can be as low as 130watt (custom downvolt and monero) to as much as 500watt (vega64 liquid on stock with PL+50 and dual-mining). Last setting highly not recommended )))

Ok only ethereum based in fact , mhm more limited .

Whenever I try to use the blockchain drivers, my screen pixelates grey and then crashes. I've reinstalled the drives with ddu but still get the same end result. The regular drivers work fine though. Any thoughts?

I have same issue. Do you have integrated gpu on your motherboard? If you have, uninstall drivers with DDU, reboot, set igpu to first in bios. Plug your monitor to igpu. Install driver again and try Hellae instructions.
I got 1850 h/s with sapphire vega 56

Any thoughts why my hashrate is dropping?

I found this would happen when I had mem clock set to 1100 (best setting for ethereum) . I had to dial back to 1020 to get it stable now the only thing that causes a hashrate drop is when I switch monitor off. Doesn't matter if hdmi is connected to GPU or mb as soon as screen is off hash rate drops from 7500 to 6700.

2016/1600 intensity 1200/1020 clocks -10%power 210Wish per GPU only OCed using Wattman for now

Does anybody run 5 or 6 x Vega 56? is it true the maximum is only 4?

I have 4 vega 64s and one 56 and can't get all 5 going at the same time. Can get 3 64s and one 56 but can't get the 5th to register. Also with 4 one card is always buggy, I've had to rebuild the rig a few times and its always a different card on a different riser that acts up. That card has to be run at lower speeds than the rest mining eth or it crashes.

Anyone found a way to use HBCC on 4+ cards?
I have a 6x Vega 64 rig and I only get around 1990 on 4 cards, the other two just ~1400MH/s.

So tempted to get some Vegas with the hash rate on Monero. What holds me off is that Volta is just around the corner

Still got a few months. If you can get any around MSRP then they may be worth it... for now at least.

what is  hashrate for xmr
what power draw for xmr

On my Vega 56:

1550 at ~100 watts (power limit -50)
1800 at ~150 watts (power limit -25)
1950 at ~200 watts (power limit 0)
2050 at ~240 watts (power limit +20)

More power does not give better results because  further increasing the memory clock the card gets unstable.

Vega56 can do 1950h/s @ 130watt.
And no need of closed source 2% fee miner. Open source xmr-stak-amd is just fine ... except 1 thing - it doesn't work with nicehash.
