If you have Hynix memory than you have good result. The best thing for you it is to undervolt your GPUs to decrease power consumption (Core 830 mV at 1140 Mhz). It will be good also for your cards. They will work more stable at lower temperature.

I have one rig with such cards and I patched them back in December 2017, so I probably forgot the exact steps, but I will try to remember. They mine at 32.2 MH/s with PhoenixMiner. By the way, one of them burned out like 2 months ago, I don't know why.

To patch the BIOS, I used PolarisBiosEditor, version 1.6.6. I don't remember from where I got it, but it has a button ONE CLICK TIMING PATCH. My settings look like this: http://prntscr.com/mb51k7 I remember playing a lot with the voltage settings to lower the power consumption and I obviously modified them, but those GPUs still eat a lot of electricity - almost 1 KW (6 GPUs). Now that I have only 5 of them, they consume 800 W from the wall.

I used DDU (Device Driver Uninstaller) every time I wanted to install new drivers. Otherwise it becomes very messy, especially with nVidia cards. For the drivers, search Google for "amd blockchain driver". I see I have a file named Win10-64Bit-Crimson-ReLive-Beta-Blockchain-Workloads-Aug23.exe.

After installing the drivers, I used some tool to patch them. The file I have is named atikmdag-patcher-1.4.6.zip. Without this, the hashrate is lower.

Use the bios mod video of all of the rx cards in youtube. BuriedOne is the person who has done that first in youtube and I never had any problem by following his guides. I think you should have a look to his youtube channel and see if it can work for you.

I'll do that - thanks alot Smiley

Memory and frequency settings are good!I also went through this, the mandatory installation of the Blockchain driver for August 23 2017 and you will see 31MH/s! Wink

I Tried that too - same as vosk links to in his vid  Undecided

but then again - im new to tweaking hardware, so guess imma try this again :-D

Hey, i am hitting around 31 and 32 mhs with most of my rx 580 8gb, no matter what memory are those, follow this tutorial https://1stminingrig.com/best-bios-rom-sapphire-nitro-rx-580-8gb-oc-hynix-memory-30-mhs/

Let me know if you need any help ! Smiley

I'll try it out later today - I dont have a nitro card, but i guess it doesn't matter right ? Cheesy

Just noticed your card is Pulse, sorry.. here is the link https://1stminingrig.com/best-bios-rom-for-sapphire-pulse-rx-580-8gb-oc-hynix-memory-30-mhs/

I've already tried that guide :/ i merged the 2 drivers and biosmodded my gpu, but after the reboot, Gpu-Z shows nothing under computing and my miner says NO OPENCL OR NVIDIA CUDA GPUs found.

i didnt use claymore 9.3 - i just downloaded the newest one tho - does it matter?Huh?

Hi guys - i've spend the last 2 days watching videos and read articles about how to biosmod and how to get 30 mh/s each card.

I just started building my mining rig and im at the point where i need to mod my gpu's -

i chose to follow vosk' video on youtube, but now matter what i only reach 28 mh/s.

Inventory:

OS:      Windows 10 ent
Gpu:     Rx 580 8gb Sapphire pulse GDDR5 (Hynix if u ask gpu-z but in polaris i got both samsung and hynix)
Driver:  Beta blockchain
Trixx settings 1130/2150
core voltage -125

i've tried different drivers and different biosmods but i cant get past the 28 mh/s.

Any suggestions?


!!!!!!!UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!
None of my biosmods were wrong or faulty - neither was the driver..
I reached 28 mh/s without tweaking any settings in either Trixx or Afterburner.
After i tweaked my settings to 1130/2150 (1stminingrig suggestion) i retrieved nothing but the same hashrate. After that i got pissed so i tried everything possible to fix theese 2 missing mhs, and Afterburner was the answer.. I tweaked the settings again to 1130/2150 and now i got 30 mhs each card :-)!!

THANKS Guys
