PowerColor RX560-4GB Mining Card OEM -- stock speed 275 H/s out of the box.




Mining BIOS for the PowerColor RX560-4GB mining card OEM with hybrid Samsung/Hynix VRAM.

350 H/s @ 30W(gpuz) XMR

PowerColor RX560-4GB (hybrid Samsung/Hynix) Mining BIOS







Update:

I've got the card hashing at 386 H/s on HYNIX cards!

PowerColor RX560-4GB (Hynix only!) Mining BIOS






Update 2:

Tested under Ubuntu 16.04 & driver 17.30 and I'm getting 398 H/s however the mainboard is newer on this rig.

Some issues with these cards I'm finding, the cards seem incompatible with the asrock H110 btc pro board and I can only get 4 of them to work together on a gigabyte 990 ud3 board.




Update 3:

After many hours of failure I found what works...

Under Ubuntu 16.04 you will need the following to make these cards work:

   1. amdgpu-pro-fans -- https://github.com/DominiLux/amdgpu-pro-fans   <--- set fans to 80%
   2. ROCm 4.11 kernel -- https://rocm.github.io/ROCmInstall.html   <--- you're totally screwed on these cards without this.
   2(a). GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="amdgpu.vm_fragment_size=9"   <--- for mining ETH & ETC.

   *** 404 H/s ***


Under Windows 10-64bit you will need:

    1. To hack the Windows driver signatures. --  atikmdag-patcher.7z.uue



Update 4:

These PowerColor cards suck. I got an Asus RX550-4GB that does 400 H/s @ 45W stock but the amdgpu-pro opencl is broken and windows has an 8 GPU limit. Sad I want to run these cards under Linux!!!!

380 H/s on XMR for a RX 580 is very low. It should be at least twice that.

sorry typo, 830 H/s

**** If you click "download" on any ROM(s) I post from pastebin.com then "save as" a .uue file then extract the compressed .7z archive with WinRAR, WinZip, etc.. and the bios_file.rom will be inside the .7z



I've modded the ROM on my Gigabyte RX580-4GB with Elpida memory. GPU underclock, VRAM overclock, lowered Voltage offset and patched brand performance specific straps.

30 MH/s ETH
830 H/s XMR @ 90W (gpuz)

If you've got any mod requests I think I can mod most RX cards.






UPDATE:

It seems not all Gigabyte RX580-4GB cards are made the same, I had one card start putting out hardware errors running the VRAM at 2000. So I made this new ROM that runs the memory slower, much slower. Good news I saved 10W on power, bad news it hashes at only 700 H/s.
