hi, can you mod this ? https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/188137/asus-rx460-4096-160715 (micron)
tried using one click pbe & unlock shader, cryptonight still 350h/s. my other rx460 hynix with 2 gb can do 460h/s using pbe

I'll post a bios to test out later.

460 H/s is good for an RX460-2GB, I just got a Sapphire RX580-8GB yesterday and I'm currently burning it in with the stock bios, the fan speed sensor seems broken and it gets 430 H/s LOL. It may have to go back...

On an unrelated note this card is the heaviest 580 card I got, this thing feels like it weighs several kgs.



edit:

Modded the bios for this Hynix Sapphire, I got 874 H/s XMR fuck am I disappointed. Bloody thing uses two (2) PCIe power connectors, next card...


edit_2:

Bit busy, I'll try to post a bios for you later today.


edit_3:

OK, try this see if it works. -- Asus.RX460.4096.160715_MINING_BIOS

You'll need pixelpatcher to unlock the drivers if your on Windows and I recommend the fan set to 100%, even if the miner says its cool as there's no sensor on most cards memory.

good morning,

i have switched from algo ETH (171MHs) to XMR (4400Hs), that algo needs not so more power at the moment i drop from 800 watt ETH to 570 Watt by using XMR.

The question is, are 4400 Hs for XMR with 6 RX570 4GB cards a good or a bad value?

Best regards
Willi

Guys im testing a rig with 6 msi armor 570 8 gb edition, hynix memory, modified the bios, strap 1500 to .... you know the drill, 5 of the 6 cards are working dual mining fine at 30 mh/dcr 750 mh, but 1 card is rogue, the 6th card cant get past 22 mh, no matter what power limit/core/memory i use cant get past 22 mh on eth, any suggestion?

What kind of numbers you getting?


Don't have it, but friend has full rig of vega 56s, he get 1900H/s per card

Oh man, that's good. They're still kinda pricey though.



edit:

I just checked a few sources and there's no stock left, only 64s @ $900. I think can get 1.2 kH/s from a $400 580-8gb, the sapphire nitro+ (Hynix version) 580 8gb might go there...

Hey guys.
I just bought a second hand rig (but is in very good condition and the owner did not abuse the cards or mod them)
Currently in the process of fixing some issues but here is the first bios of the 3 cards in the rig.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2504w0cx5pp6owq/Modded_Sap_Pulse_Rx570_Elpida_4GB.rom?dl=0

Try this, it uses the 1500 straps.

My windows rig is having issues I think the HD7990 is getting old (was this thing made in the mid 90's?), it hashes at over 1k H/s XMR stock. So I gotta rip all the cads out and I'll test the 1500 straps on the 570s while all the cards are out. Currently they're going at 581 H/s XMR with what's basically an undervolted/underclocked stock bios. Sad


Sounds like totally not worthy for mining monero with those cards, since RX560 can reach 500H/s

Go with with 580-8gb don't mess around, my rigs are in pieces hahah.


vega or nothing for cryptonight Cheesy

Alright, these 570 are kinda sketchy but lets see if you got a lucky card!!!

Sapphire-Pulse-RX570-4GB_MINING_BIOS


** WARNING **
UNTESTED BIOS



I agree, I have 2 MSI Armor OC rx570's and they can be tempermental.  Both mine are elpida version and 1 runs on the radeon mining drivers, the other doesn't.  I have them undervolted to 900mv using the 1500 straps and am hashing at 740 H/s (cryptonite) or 26 MH/s Eth, while using 85-88w at the wall.  It's a good balance.  I think if I upped the voltage a bit I could improve the hash rate, but they don't seem to improve as much as the 470 cards did.

You're the second person claiming success with the 1500 straps.

OK, I got my MSI GamingX RX570-4GB running at 2000 with the 1500 straps. -- 729 H/s

thank you very much!!!!!!!!

but after i flash this bios i need msi afterburner setting to do too? or i leave it stock?

i have to rename the file sapphire.rx480.8192.160603_mining_bios.7z.uue.txt

in sapphire.rx480.8192.160603_mining_bios.7z
right?

Remove anything like afterbusrner or custom miner overclock settings; drivers and miners should be on default settings except for fan speeds (I recommend 100%).

The file name should end in .uue rename it then open it, the .7z with the rom is inside.

Notbatman, is it possible to do a Custom bios for Rx 570 Sapphire Nitro+ 8gb (Samsung) ?

It is but, there's stability issues with most 570 cards it seems unless you get a lucky card. The straps included with these cards are very close to mining straps already and I've only managed to get minor power savings on these cards over the stock bios.

Another user reported success in copying the 1500 straps on his Epilda 570 but I can't confirm this (I need to build a windows gaming and test rig).
