...
So I can suppose that is a RX 460 inside a RX 560 case... is this a fraud from Sapphire? The label ON the board says SKU# 11267-01 also

!!!

Hi guys,

First of all, this topic has been very informative. Thank you all very much for sharing your knowledge and information   Smiley

Sadly, I didn’t do my homework before buying 12 x Sapphire Radeon RX 560 Pulse 4GB (11267-18-20G). I thought I got a good deal, only later to find out this model is severely gimped. As stated before in this topic, it only has 896 shaders, less TMU, 1500Mhz and less Bandwidth:

I can’t return them anymore so I have to make the best of it…. However, it looks like my card is just a softlocked ‘normal’ Sapphire Radeon RX 560 Pulse OC 4GB (11267-00-20G). I have been able to unlock the shaders to 1024, the TMU to 64 and my memory chips are also ‘normal’ MT51J256M3 (MICRON) a.k.a. they run at 1750Mhz by default.

I’ve tried different straps (from Wacko, Branko, One Click Timing from PSBEditor 1.6.7, the BIOS straps website with the Nyan cat logo and the ‘top secret’ 15Mhs strap) and was able to push this ‘gimped’ card to 12.1MH/s. Sadly, I can’t do much more because of the limitation in Bandwidth. It’s locked to 96 GB/s and I need the full 128 GB/s in order to push the hashrate even further. Changing/raising the TDP and TDC made no difference; the cards just keeps using the same wattage (which is odd I think).

My question: Is it possible to unlock/BIOSmod the Bandwidth to 128 GB/s as well?
@Branko: Do you see any room for more improvements in my BIOS mod?

For those of you interested in my ROM:
Stock ROM (without any modifications): http:// data .freek. ws/public/11267-18-20G/RX560_STOCK.rom
ROM with shaders unlocked to 1024 (no other modifications): http:// data .freek. ws/public/11267-18-20G/RX560_UNLOCKED.rom
ROM with unlocked shaders, Branko’s strap and increased max. memory frequency (for use with claymore): http:// data .freek .ws/public/11267-18-20G/RX560_12MHs.rom
(REMOVE THE SPACES IN THE URL. I could'nt link directly to my server, it got flagged my bitcointalk)

The last ROM (the one with Branko’s strap) will give you 12.1MH/s at Ethereum mining using Claymore 10.6 and the following settings: -cclock 1275 -mclock 2225 -cvddc 1000 -mvddc 850

Thank you very much for your time

Hi all.

I'm currently selling several of my RX 560.
I've lost the stock BIOS of one of them and wondering if someone here could help me ?

The model is Asus RX 560 4Go Gaming (not Evo Gaming or Evo OC).
I've tried this BIOS https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/193242/asus-rx560-4096-170426, but it doesn't works.

This card have HYNIX ram.

Thx for your help !  Kiss

R460/560 are good cards because they don’t use a lot of electricity and gives about 13 Mh/s while ETH mining. As I see there is some increase of speed after unlocking 1024 Stream processors. It is especially good for Monero and ZCash mining.

New here into the mining world.  I've been getting a lot of information from you folks about mining.

While I was trying to bios mod my second XFX RX560D 4GB single fan, I noticed through HxD that the bios are different from my first XFX card. 
Both XFX cards are labeled RX-560D4S V8.0 Radeon RX 560 4GB D5 1196M Core DP HDMI. 
Only the serial numbers are different.  Is having a different bios typical? 
Using the same bios, I was successful in unlocking my shaders in the first card but the second card remained at 896 shaders. 
Do cards within the same models vary slightly where it's possible to flash to 1024 shaders on certain cards?
Thanks

Even if you have two of the same cards, it doesn't mean both will unlock.
Maybe is BIOS different because memory is different, you should check it.

Hi there
Can anyone help me with biostar rx560 4gb modded bios.
I have been looking for a good bios for it but no success so far. With polarise one click patcher it can just go for 12.2 mh (claymore ethereum)
What I have found about this card is that ,this model is rx 560D , is there any chance to unlock the gpu or not.
many thanks

It is not worth.
If you can unlock the shaders, the card will not hash faster, because the memory is to slow (1500MHz).

If you have rx 560D that means you only have 896 Stream processors.
It maybe could be unlocked to 1024 Stream processors if you flash it with appropriate BIOS.
But if BIOS doesn't match your GPU you could damaged it, so you are doing this at your own risk.
Here is some unverified BIOS https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?architecture=Uploads&manufacturer=Biostar&model=RX+560&interface=&memType=&memSize=&since=
but again, you should know that if it doesn't match you gpu, you could damage it.

Also read this threads about unlocking extra shaders on your card https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/unlock-the-shaders-amd-radeon-rx-560d.240735/

So I have a bit of a head scratcher maybe one of you can help me out with.
I have 4 cards - 2x Gigabyte OC Gaming RX560's, one XFX RX560 4gb and 1 asus 4gb RX560. When I have them all hooked up, the gigabyte cards get around 13.5mh/s, the xfx gets 10.5mh/s and the asus gets 9.5 mh/s. All are set to Compute mode except for the Asus which for some reason I can't as there is no option to do so. Here is the head scratching part...The gigabytes always get around 13.5, but one day I disabled them just to play around and the XFX and Asus cards jumped up to 13 & 12 respectively. I plugged the gigabytes back in and boom they both went down again. I thought it could be a power supply issue as I only had 500w. I bought a 750 80plus gold Thermaltake PSU with the hopes and dreams of solving this issue but alas...it did not. I know I should just chuck those other two and get two more gigabyte cards but i have sunk more money into this than I wanted to already.

Any ideas you folks may have would be greatly appreciated!

PS...I have modded the bios of all 4 cards, the asus even shows as 16CU now.

It looks like RX560 2GB is much better than RX550 4GB.

This depends on which coin (algorithm) you want to mine with which card. For example, an RX560 2GB will mine Cryptonight coins but not Ethereum, so an RX550 4GB is better if you want to mine Ethereum.

Sounds like one of crappy new GPUs...ordinary/good RX560s should have default mem clock 1750MHz, not 1500MHz

I have Sapphire RX560 2GB 1500MHz with Elpida memory (11267-19-20G). Out of the box I got 292H/s.  Sad

After "1 click config" in Polaris editor, and some minor tweak in OverdriveNTools (GPU clock from 1226 to 1300), I reached 365H/s in Claymore 11.3 using Cryptonight v7

I tried to increase memory clock, but even increase from 1500 to 1510 crashed everything.

As I see some results way above 400H/s, I don't have any option than ask for help.

I found the Gigabyte cards that have Elpida Memory are awesome, I Spent days working on a Gigabyte RX550 and hit 515H/s stable for weeks now, but that one is at 47-48 Watts. I am going to keep working on this RX 560, I believe there's more in there. Hoping to achieve 550H/s, amazingly the temp is hovering at 38C w/ 60% fan for over 8 hours now. I have 2 MSI AERO ITX RX550 and they are a pain in the ass. I am a HUGE fan of the ROG Strix RX 560 O4G EVO GAMING cards without the extra 6pin, awesome output so far and like the design. I would like to test Ethash, but I don't have a setup. I'm willing to message someone with the VBIOS and settings I'm using.

I have some Gigabyte RX 560 OC 4G (rev. 2.0) Hynix memory. One of the best investments in 2018. Stable 14 MH/s at 37 watts.

MSI Aero RX 560 with Micron memory is little bit cheaper in Turkey and it gives stable 13.5 MH/s Ethash at 35 watts. Tuning MSI was not fun.

I bought lots of these two because of RX 580 prices. 3 x RX 560 costs less than RX 580. Almost same power with much more hash rate...
