I grabbed a Vega 64 for test. (all claymore)

Eth mining 34mh stock with last AMD driver,
37mh with blockchain beta driver, and 41mh with simple OC.


less than 500h/s ZEC mining with last claymore.

Very noisy. Fan not under control.

The main issue with VEGA is that I can't do anything about voltage.
This is grayed in Afterburner.

I was thinking to set voltage in claymore, but I don't know the stock one. It doesn't appear in AB, and even gpu-z doesn't show it.
I don't know if this is because of Beta drivers or not.
If you have ideas, I can try !

It will never give 50mhs probably ...and rx vega 56 have lower performance so...

It might reach high 40s and low 50s with BOIS mods and better drivers. But that will take time
yeah, and by that time (2-3 mo), it probably would not matter anyway.

Exactly. Right now a R9 280X makes more sense than a VEGA GPU.

In exactly 1 month, on Sept 25th or so we will hit the 2nd ice-age bomb and we will make 55% of what we earn today, not including the added hashrate AND if ETH maintains its price.

The vega 56 is a card deliberately limited to stop it being near the vega 64 .   The memory cant go past 1000 mhz and that means the performance is throttled, apparently mining relys on memory bandwidth even more so I would guess it'll show in results.

Rx580 is still the best for power use.   People saying Volta might be good at mining, that is next year

you mean core? memory could go to 1900, apparently, but then power goes to 290w, hashing at 34-36 Mh/s, which is bothersome for $750.

I say, f-k Volta. They already "screwed" up once, will not wait again.
Nvidia is so much better, low power, mining soft is super stable.


Volta is Nvidia's next generation of GPU's coming next year.

"f-k Volta...Nvidia is so much better" makes no sense.

And what does the Claymore say about Vega hashrate? Or so far nothing? HBM memory has good potential but without updating the program part of a good result, it most likely will not be.
if now you can get ~ 39 mh with overclock then with optimization will be competitive with the current favorites.

I feel that Vega line is going to become the last hope for ETH mining in light of diminishing rewards and rising difficulty.

will be 50 mhs after driver update?

I think the 64 card will do low 50's   After drivers and tweaks

Vega 56 has lower memory bandwidth compared to 64. Thus lower theoretical hashrate.

What about Vega 56? Are this cards not being sold yet. All I can find around the stores in EU is VEga 64.
The Vega 56 will release August 28th

maybe to 100 mhs

Did you have a brain damage? This card will never get to 100 mh/s, 100 MH/s was a LIE to get noobs to preorder what the scammers had preordered hehe

I always thought little 'm' stands for 'milli' and 'M' is for 'mega'.
Speaking of units, I like kSols better Smiley
