Shares have not much to do with the coins but rather the initial difficulty you are setting up. If you chose a low difficulty for your hardware you will find many shares but with less "value". Difficulty will adjust automatically to your hardware/hashrate and you will find fewer shares but with higher value.

Same you can observe on Equihash coins where you find a ton of shares at the beginning until the difficulty is adjusted.

Rx480 has samsung chips and rx580 have Hynix , but I doubt this is the issue
That's the issue right there. Cheesy Samsung chips are faster, or rather people figured out the timings for those chips that result in higher hashrate than with Hynix and Elpida. This is what matters the most for Cryptonight.

I've gone to the high difficulty Port: 7777
Is this a good option?
I have the same question.  Electroneum.space offers an even higher difficulty. starting at 100,000 difficulty.  With 6x vegas I am not sure if I should be on the 7777 port or the higher one. 
This is just the starting difficulty, it doesn't matter all that much cause it'll auto-adjust to your hashing power pretty soon after the start. 7777 is the port to use for multi-gpu rigs. And 100k difficulty is for nicehash and similar services, you don't want to use that: it'll adjust automatically as well after a while, but you'll just lose some time not finding many shares (if any).

I have noticed that while I am mining at the same hashrate for ETN VS XMR I seem to find fewer shares of ETN.  Is that normal?  I was under the assumption that since ETN was newer I should be finding more shares than I do in XMR.

I'm new to mining ETN, I've started with 6x Vega (~11,8KH/s) at http://uk-etn-stats.hashparty.io
I've gone to the high difficulty Port: 7777
Is this a good option?
I don't understand the benefits of the three difficulty options, can someone explain?

Driver for all is the bockchain one. Rx480 has samsung chips and rx580 have Hynix , but I doubt this is the issue. I saw in whattomine that they wrote for 480 870h and for rx580 680h, so obviously there is some difference, but what is it?  I have to ask Claymore!

Maybe it's a problem of the driver. Are you using the Blockchain Radeon Driver? I did not see any differences when using DDU and then the blockchain and now the 17.11, maybe are you using another version?

I've been researching, and technically I've read that the best drivers are the 17.11 (17.10.7+) because AMD incorporated in November a new functionality: GPU Workload Compute Mode.

Therefore Drivers are not making a huge impact on the performance of the whole system.

So now I'm in a dead point Cry
Considering I've tested all the variants possible (Bios mix 3.1.1, clocks 1400/2050, driver 17.11 w/ compute mode, claymore with optimal setting intensity 1020) and only getting 860H/s (with xmr-stak) I think this is the best I can get

If I were mining at 1200/2000 at this 850H/s It will be awesome. But considering that I'm mining at 40-50W extra (68W @1200/2000 vs 115W@1400/2000). If anyone has an extra advice it would be appreciated!

Why when mining monero rx480 hashes much better with 900h and rx580 hashes with 750h? Same setting and modded bioses and on etherium 580 is doing 30.5mgh and 480 is 29.5? What is going on?

Seems AMD hashrates are more comparable without modded bios' on cryptonight. I would suggest trying to update drivers if possible

They're probably not the same? What memory chips does your rx580 have, and what kind of memory is installed on the rx480?

Also, are there any pools that auto exchange electroneum?  Rather than having a wallet is it best to just mine direct to an exchange?  I am already mining monero through mining pool hub and have an account on Cryptopia.  i was just planning on copying all my monero mining configs and adjusting them to mine to monero instead.  If There isn't an autoexchange pool I will just mine direct to the exchange.

I created a wallet using the Github release. I am running the daemon with my wallet open, however, it keeps telling me my wallet is out of sync after I type address or anything in it.  Thoughts?

i don't know what is wrong i was mining whole day with R9 270 having 430 H/s at hashparty pool and didn't get anything..
What is the best pool?
Try Nanopool! Really nice pool to mine in Smiley

Can someone help me out please? I keep getting this same error even though I've tried multiple pools:

some people say that the estimated number of coins when mining is different from the real on pools, is there such?
Of course.

Maybe your inestability beyond 2050 its because you have undervolted further than I am.
No, I don't think so. I tried running all kinds of clocks at higher voltages first.

Now when reducing with OverDriveNTool (with AB also happened similarly) only produces crashes when tweaking core clock, never memory clock.

Currently in Afterburner I've set it up as -100mV core and -20% Power Limit to reach the 1400/2050 range
I don't know why, but despite that Claymore its telling me that the Hashrate it's 930H/s in the pool live stats, it says that I'm mining @ 700-800H/s
I don't use MSI AB with amd cards, doesn't seem like a good idea to me. OverdriveNTool has more control and is more convenient to use than AB. Pretty much all my Polaris cards run at 0.9V right now.
This is the strap I'm using for my cards with samsung chips:
777000000000000022CC1C00AD615C41C0590E152ECC8608006007000B031420FA8900A00300000 010122F3F88354019
With this, I'm getting ~ 950 H/s at 1200/2000. Increasing core clock doesn't do much for cryptonight or eth, so I don't see much point going as high as 1400.

You are using the same strap as me (3.1.1 version 1)

I've tested this config, 1200/2050 at 900mV and Claymore with -h 1020 (it's the best in all scenarios) and now I'm only getting 700h/s in Claymore and 650h/s in XMR
Best part is that after touching the mV with the ODT now even at 1400 with 1200mV i'm still getting those numbers (700/650h/s). I don't know what might be happening now (EDIT: I have rebooted and everything went back adequately)

Maybe it's a problem of the driver. Are you using the Blockchain Radeon Driver? I did not see any differences when using DDU and then the blockchain and now the 17.11, maybe are you using another version?

1400Mhz/2150 - 920H/s (~130W power)
1300Mhz/2150 - 890H/s - (-7W)
1200Mhz/2150 - 860H/s - (-14W)
The main reduction in power consumption when you change the core clock is supposed to come from the reduced voltage. Of course simply lowering the core clock won't bring the power down by a lot. But when you lower the clock from 1400 to 1200, you can also lower the voltage down to at least 0.9V. That, in turn, will cut your power consumption very significantly.

Maybe your inestability beyond 2050 its because you have undervolted further than I am.

I don't know why, but despite that Claymore its telling me that the Hashrate it's 930H/s in the pool live stats, it says that I'm mining @ 700-800H/s
But when I use xmr-stak it says the same info in both the client and the pool. So I'm assuming that
a) Claymore has an incompatibility with the pool
b) Claymore it's outputing more H/s than it's actually hashing in my case

I would like to stick with xmr-stak because I feel it's way more stable more me in all sense.

At this moment with the 1400/2050 setup i'm getting 930H/s in Claymore and 860H/s in xmr-stak

But still under the 1KH/s that I would have liked to aim for (or at least 950H/s in XMR-Stak) or even I would be fine with a 900H/s in XMR-Stak but @1200/2050

So I don't know where the issue could be.
Which are your undervolt settings? Core Voltage mV and % Power Limit? (in the Bios I did change the memory voltage to 950mV, but not the core voltage settings)

This guy for example recommends the UberMix 3.1
https://anorak.tech/t/sapphire-rx580-8gb-samsung-memory-256kb/38522

I have 3 setups:
Ubermix 3.1: 777000000000000022CC1C00AD615C41C0590E152ECC8608006007000B031420FA8900A00300000 010122F3FBA354019
Ubermix 3.1.1 Version 1: 777000000000000022CC1C00AD615C41C0590E152ECC8608006007000B031420FA8900A00300000 010122F3F88354019
Ubermix 3.1.1 Version 2: 777000000000000022CC1C00AD615C41C0590E152ECCA60B006007000B031420FA8900A00300000 010122F3FBA354019

Which is the best for my card? Im using the Ubermix 3.1.1 Version 1
