what is extraordinary about 850h/s  Huh Huh Huh

just default straps from 1750 do the same.

I've managed to have 950 h/s with samsung memory though, 8-gpu rig, 1.3 kWh

Look at the post date , Elio roms now breaking 1000 h/s easily .

Next time if you have some problem , you should start a new topic , you might get more help from another members!
Your problem has nothing to do with the tilte of this topic " Custom ROM from Eliovp - RX480 Nitro+ 8GB (Samsung Memory) XMR ~850h/s "  Smiley

I know but I already started a topic about this some days ago and did get response but nobody mentioned that it is wrong to modify a BIOS and copy to all other cards...

If u flashed ur  cards two bioses , then the atiflash not going to read the original bios version number Sad
dont be panic , your problem might be something else... i hope.

I have a lot of original bios versions for those nitro+ cards , if you get ur new mobo , and the problem still exist after a fresh windows install , you can send me ur cards serial number and i can try match those numbers with my cards serial numbers , and send some bios files for you from those card what serial numbers close to urs . You might have to try a few ...


That's great men! I love the spirit around Monero, everybody helps eachother out. Love it! Tomorrow or beginning of next week I have the Mobo. And I will start figuring out what cards still have there original BIOS. I will do that by looking at each card 1 by one, starting​ to compete in atitflash and then do some basic test. I will set the memory of the original ( or what I think is original ) BIOS to 2100 instead of 2000... This in my opinion should run stable because no timings or what so ever are changed... No undervolting... If this is not running stable I will try one of your other original BIOS and do same test again and have a look if it's ok...

You think this is the good way to go?

shit yes i did Sad
i took the original bios from 1 card , modded it and put it in the other cards... i know i have a switch to go back to original bios but it could be that i accidently reflashed the original as well... not for all cards but how can i be sure?

if i modded my card , can i see in any way what the original bios was ?

what would u suggest? ( thx for the great tip , did not thaugt it could harm modding 1 rom and copy to all the rest

Use that " V bios switch " on your nitro's. Make sure you reset any tune you done on your cards with software (watttman , watttool , afterburnen )
Boot your computer up with only one nitro connected , after boot , just in case restart the pc ...
Use atiflash to check the bios version. Load your modded bios with atiflash and compare the 2 bios version . If both the same , you are good Smiley Just close atiflash dont hit "program" button.  If you see thhere different bios numbers u should restore your original bios...

(do this process with all six cards one by one)





thx for the help ! i will try that tomorrow ( i dont have the rig with me now ). But my only problem i could be facing now is that i have flashed over the original rom on some cards on both BIOS ... i know for modding its best to set the v switch towards the hdmi ports , so you could always go back to original by just setting v switch back again.  but what if my original bios is overwritten as well? then in atiflash my bios version will also show the wrong version ?

Im not saying this is the problem you are dealing with , but its worth a try Smiley

Are you sure your 6 sapphire rx 480 nitro+ 8gb cards all have the same bios version Huh
Did you checked the bios version for each cards before you flashed the modded bios ?
Did you modded your own bioses?
Did you modded one bios and flashed to all of your cards ?
Those sapphire rx 480 nitro+ 8gb cards have a different bios version:
113-2E3470U-S5X ,
113-2E3470U.X4L ,
113-2E3470U.X51 ,
113-2E3472U.053 ,
113-2E3470U.O5Y ,
113-2E3470U.X5W ,
113-2E3472U.O5V,
113-2E3470U.S5S
... and a few more

This bios files are not interchangeable. If you are flashing a card with another bios version , your card might going to work , but can be very unstable during mining or gaming. ( reboots / blue screen / open cl hangs /driver fail errors  ... )

its not enough buy the special rom.  I have a few of eliovp's rom and the dude is brilliant.  Never used Wolf but heard good stuff as well from him.

So u had the same problems like me? When using stock BIOS it runs stable, but when I try to raise the Mem from 2000 to 2050 on stock BIOS my rig crashes after some time...

Pretty much, some cards can't take it but the odds of all cards not taking it are rare.  Most take programming and are stable about 9 out of 10 cards.

Ok when I have the mobo I do some more testing . Could it be that the old Mobo I am using right now gives problems ? And isn't it strange that when I try to change the memory from 2000 to 2100 on the stock BIOS with wattool the rig crashes? Is it really that difficult? I read tons of story's of other people the can easily adjust ... Ok most of them are eth miners... Is Monero that much different ? It would be nice to get a response of wolf0 or eliovp

hey guys, and then especially mean eliovp and wlof0 Smiley

i have 6 sapphire rx 480 nitro+ 8gb cards, a 128gb ssd hard disk, a brand new corsair 1200w platinum power supply , Powered gpu risers and an old 4 pci slot motherboard. i run windows 10 ( not a bought version , i ativated it with an activator and disabled windows update ... ).
one of these days my h81 pro btc motherboard should arrive that i ordered.

The situation is the following , for 2 weeks now i am trying to get my rig ( 4 cards at the moment ) stable but its not working... i started of with claymore miner and with standard roms and no
over or undervolting and memory tweaking it runs stable... but i dont want 640 hash at a high power consumption.
so i started just by copying the 1750 straps to 2000 straps and i flashed all cards with the new bios , after a few hours my rig crashed ( windows crashed because off an amd driver crash accroding to "who crashed" ). and this still just by copying the 1750 straps to 2000... if i start undervolting or higher the mem from 2000 to 2150 then i get great results ( still with 1750 timings ) but it is absolutly NOT stable.

after all that misery with claymore miner i tried sgminer , it is a bit slower but it looks like it is more stable, anyway when i try it with 1750 straps again , the miner seems to block after several hours ( just the mining software , windows is not crashing this time ). so i wrote a script to restart the pc every 2 hours and that worked, but still not happy because i hear all kinds of story of peopel with great results and great power consumtion and that runs rock stable. So i tried and tried and tried , last bios i tried was V4 bios from " jukebox " , that looked promissing but still crashes on claymore miner and blocks in sgminer.

After all that trying i have problems with sgminer and claymore , my fans go nuts after an hour on sgminer and in claymore i just cant control the fanspeed or temperature target anymore. in claymore the fans always run 27 - 28 procent and temperature runs up to 85+ degrees...

So i stopped my miner , and i await my new motherboard ( asrock h81 pro btc ) , i will do a clean install of windows 10 ( still with activator ) and hope that with the new mobo it will run more stable. i will start again with just copying 1750 straps to 2000 and see... and i want to start with only 1 card... hopefully i can control fan speed and temperature again.


guys ( eliovp and wolf0 ) could you please tell me what to do , can you tell me that just copying 1750 timings to 2000 is not enough to run rock stable? if thats the case i will consider buying the rom ( i dont want the super 850 hashrate but 750 rock stable and low power consumption would be perfect for me ). so please respond or PM me , i am kinda desperate right now , i invested some money in something that does not really run at this moment. and i planning to buy more rx 480 if i get it right with ( hopefully ) your help.


thank you so much in advance

Was the rig stable prior to flashing?  Rigs should be stable at stock bios otherwise there is a rig issue that needs to be resolved.  Some cards don't take a flash as well as others.

Yes was stable before flashing... When I get new Mobo I will flash all my cards to stock BIOS and then run them all six for a while to be sure if they arestable... But then I want to start modding and that's the point when I will need help cause even if I run with standard BIOS and raise memory from 2000 to 2050 the rig crashes...
