these errors you talk about, are they in HWInfo ?
If you get 1 error/hour that is nothing.

this bios does not contain straps after 1500, it's not that pbe is not showing them, it's just there are no straps after 1500 in the table they should be.
I got a feeling that this is one step they took to move miners off their gaming cards.
The data is probably there but maybe hardcoded in the command table Cheesy

if you add for memory more than 2000 you will get errors, at 2010... 2150.
1 error apears after 1 hour, sooner or less, depends how much you go to 2010, 2050, 2100.... values to 2150.
tried many settings, doesn't like memory overcloked. I use old bios version modded with ...3F17
its a cooling issue also, if you go fan 100% less errors.

if anyone can tell me that he overclocked +2000 with no errors, please let me know.

i'm seeing the same problem with 4 new cards of his type

i have opened up an issue on github with the dev of the polaris bios editor fork. maybe it makes sense to add information there. i've also backlinked to this and the reddit thread.

Used DDU, reinstalled 23 august driver. Same error in AB, core voltage blocked for my 4th card.

@Mattthev can you share, so I can take a look ?

I also don't understand why I cannot move the slider for the 4th card in power voltage this new version in Afterburner but I can in first 3 cards in the rig, same RX but old versions... Gigabyte wants to block and no more selling to miners ?

The timings is not publicly released I only give it to testers right now, since I don't have this type of Hynix. For those who want it, need to have some skills with this type of bios modding and send me feedback for the timings, I have 2 versions now. I wrote about it in my bios modding thread, I will post it that again. Contact me via e-mail.

For the voltage problem, did you use DDU? You may try OverdrivenTool with voltage offset.

This is new Hynix memory H5GC8H24MJ, I'm testing timing for that with some guys. But I've never seen 1500MHz as last... It's been tested with MSI and Powercolor. ETH is only around 30MH/s now, but Monero can do 900H/s.
Send me an e-mail I will give you testing timings if you will share results with me.

This is how new cards version look in bios

Maybe for Gigabyte, but MSI and Powercolor has also 2000MHz strap with this same memory version.

MING-8GD/F11/058A 0x1D

and old version:

MING-8GD/F10/058A 0xE9

adding to 1750 2000 2250 this will increase.

777000000000000022AA1C00B56A6D46C0551017BE8E060C006AE6000C081420EA8900AB0300000 01B162C31C0313F17

works for old versions, but not new ones. waiting from other people some solutions for 30 with no errors.

Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in september are different than Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in august and older.

They now have only 1500 timings. No more.

Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in august can reach 30.3 with modded bios with no gpu memory errors.

Using a modded bios for Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in august you can add +1500 changing bios by using older version's bios.

Using a bios from Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in august that is modded on a Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in september gives gpu memory errors in HWiNFO using the exact settings.

1150 2150 950 = errors, high hashrate. going down 2150 (like 2140, 2130... 2100, 2050...) you get less errors, less hashrate.

1150 2000 950 = no errors, less hashrate.

Anyone can reach 30 mhs with Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB released in september (which original had 1500 timings only) and no gpu memory errors ? what setttings ?

For the Core voltage option being disabled in Afterburner, run DDU in safe mode to remove the drivers. Reinstall the drivers and that should fix it. I would try the Polaris Bios Editor v1.6 'one click timing patch' bundled performance timings on the original Bios. If you have memory errors, reduce the memory clock by 25 MHz until there are no more errors.

I bought a new Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8GB

now with only 1500 timings! Using latest blockchain driver, AB beta 16 and I got 25mh/s and I saw in bios this: https://imgur.com/a/DviXr

only 1500.

This is different than the older RX 580 I had. Is now MING-GD/F11/058A wuth 0X1D where old is MING-GD/F10/058A with 0xE9.

So I used the bios from older version, that was adding missing timings and undervolted as the others but I get memory errors ... in HWiNFO.

Is everybody getting memory errors ? how did you fixed them ? Thanks.

Older cards have no memory errors with same bios, same overclock, same undervolt. They are cool, 58 degrees, 60% fan.

They have the same issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/70ff91/gigabyte_rx_580_8bg_memory_timings_only_showing/

Help ?

Now after a restart I get 3000 errors / hour. Before restart I had 250.000 / day. How safe is to keep it with errors, and how many are accepted for long time use ?

also, being the 4th card of 5 (the five is not rx) this particular 4th card RX new has blocked the Core Voltage (mV) in afterburner the 950 added im bios, which for the rest of the cards show. https://imgur.com/a/UL8MN . Why ?
