Hi there,

Love all the good information in there for RX 560.

I have a bunch of RX 460 (unlock to RX 560) 4GB cards and they can hash UBIQ somewhere between 13.5-13.7 dual mining with Pascal Coin (120-130 each). My cards have horrible ASIC Quality and none of them crack above 60%, I have to keep the core @1000 to save power and undervolt.

I am interested to buy another bunch of RX 460 to replace my old Tahiti cards. However the 4GB version are mostly sold out and remains pretty expensive. I do see a bunch of 2GB version selling at normal price or below.

My question is, could some one who has RX 460 2GB cards kindly run a benchmark of Epoch 85, 100, and 115 to see how much can the 2GB cards handle. My 4GB version can withstand a benchmark of Epoch 295 with 3.5GB VRAM in use, however, I don't have any 2GB cards and I live in rural area (meaning it's hard to get my hands on a 2GB card without buying one just to try)

Thank you guys and happy mining. Cheers

A noob looking for a little guidance if you could.

I picked up the ASUS Rx 560 OC Edition and threw it into an old spare PC with intention of learning more about mining and figured it was relatively cheap so if it doesn't work out or I fry the card I am not out too much money. I am using Claymores dual miner and the August edition of the AMD mining drivers on windows 10. Two things that are happening.

1) I run Claymores script and the card spins up to 90°c with the fans at 100% before shutting down about a minute later. I moved the rig to the garage as it's around 0°c and I added an intake case fan blowing directly at it. Card is still averaging 86°c while the interior of the case is hovering around 10°c.  This does not seem right and my guess will burn the card out pretty quickly.

2) Daily average from ethermine.org is around 7MH/s which is about half of what is reported heere on this thread.

So does anyone have any tips, tricks or a stable BIOS update that would help either of these issues (perferrably both)? Also given my noobness what are straps and strat referring to?  I am sure there are more questions I will need to ask but baby steps.

if I get this figured out then I will start to ramp up with a number of cards and an open air rig.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Ok...so I did pretty much all of that...there are a few things I had already done, I couldn't do or weren't available anymore but man it still ramps up right to 90° and I am getting just under 10MH/s on average. I tried setting the limit on the temp but overdrive Ntool throttled down the fans so much it crashed. The temp in my garage was -3° so I set the min and max of the fans higher and it seems relatively stable but I can't get it to push any higher or be any cooler....sigh...

Try earlier versions of Claymore, some people report better results with older versions on less powerful cards, or try mining a CryptoNight coin, they use less power:

Hey guys.. I picked up a couple Asus Radeon RX 560 4gb Evo Oc edition cards, and am getting about 13Mh/s each just with wattman..

My question is, when I try to mod the bios, the memory only goes to 1500, and apparently there is on 14cus..

Is there anything I can do to get the memory past 2000, or should I just smile with what I've gotten?
If you upload your VBIOS, I can try to unlock the 16 CU´s.

guys please help! I broke one of my xfx rx560 4gb (micron) while trying to bios myself because of I try all shared bios and didn't work at all, all same fault "SubsystemIDs mismatch"

and this is the second and last one, I dont want to lose this one too..
Upload your original VBIOS to zippyshare or an other filehoster. I don´t want to sign in OneDrive to download your BIOS to help you  Wink .

"SubsystemIDs mismatch" will display when you want to flash the BIOS from an other GPU, like RX560D.

Do you have an RX560D, maybe ?

hi guys i wanted to build up 1 rig with 12 of rx 560 4gb (14mh oon ethx2 does 28mh which is like rx 570/580) but from what i know the power cosnumption is very cheap about 55w each card is that true?
can someone post prove with a kill a watt? because my rx 570 28mh on eth drawing 160watt and if 2x rx 560 for 28mh draw 110w is very much better i think

You are having a 14+ mh/s with XFX rx 560 single fan model? I am thinking to buy 8x XFX rx560 but i was afraid to not to get more than 12 mh/s.

Also anyone tried dual mining with this card?

If you plan to dual mine, I strongly suggest card with additional pci-e power connector and good cooling

XFX rX 560 4gb has an additional power connector, dual mining is 10.5 MH/s // 330 MH/s (ETH/SIA) per GPU, no OC just factory settings

whats the best you can do to a xfx 560 micron single fan?

About 14.8 if card doesn't have additional power connector, 15.5 if it has it.
Everything above 15.5 is just question of cooling memory...gigabyte has advantage that
metal part of cooler covers memory chips too...I don't know about any other card like that, but
if it exists, it should be able to reach 16MH/s too


Which settings should give me that speed on XFX 560 Single Fan with

Memory timings?Clocks?

Thanks.


i have a modded bios for XFX RX 560's that get me a 14.xx stable. You may be able to hit 15.xxx but I could not as the MAX mem clock was 2000 for mine. All of the ones I have are MICRON memory. However even after taking each and tuning them one by one separately. I get weird hashrates i.e 14.xxx on one while another 11.xxx on others. Its strange... not sure what is happening. I normally used the batch file on Claymore to edit the settings/set overclocks/voltage etc. But have been experimenting with using Wattman, and Afterburner.

So far Wattman is okay, but still not even hashrates all around, and AB combined with Claymore is a hit or miss sometimes to have them all at 14.xxx ;

Example: in claymore GPU0 is 11.xxx Mh/s GPU1 is 14.xxx and GPU2 is 11.xxx doesnt make any sense why this is. What I have noticed however is that the DAG file creation time for GPU1 is 8XXX ms vs 11982 ms for the other two. I'm lead to believe the faster the creation of the DAG poch file   = high hash rate.


and these mod values ans straps are:
If you care to share.

I got 12.6-12.7 Mh/s with 1625 straps and 2040 mem and 1150 GPU core clock. Me,ory is micron. Single Fan XFX RX 560.

I also noticed the gpu I have is a downgraded version with 14 CU rather than original 16 CU RX560.

Maybe my values are limit with what I got.

Don't thank me tho, thank the all mighty Branko (I am not worthy), *cough* send him eth for his work *cough*

I apologize for not replying sooner, got diagnosed with severe anxiety and depression but I found the help I need and have faith everything will be ok Smiley

I will try your bios strap settings on my on other cards I'm having problems with. I'm thinking of reverting to the blockchain drivers (beta ones released in Aug) instead of the up to the date Adrenaline (now) drivers.

Thank you, I started to go crazy for a 10.2 MH/s for each card, today I will try it and I hope it will work.
I have a 2 xfx rx 560 4gb, dual mining ETH and SIA (started for testing but now I'm just waiting for a payoff), started to mine one month ago.
Anyhow, you saved me Smiley

better 8gb gpu for difficulty increasing
Chances are by the time 8GB no longer works for mining ETH will have finally switched to some sort of POS or whatever 8GB mining cards are available now like the 580 will be obsolete. 4GB is really just fine for mining right now.

8GB has nothing with difficulty, but DAG size...and 4GB will be enough for 3 more years (up until 24/APR/2021), by then all today
cards will be obsolete, both 4 and 8GB versions

Also thanks for advising me on the 1625 straps.

All run now @ 14.xxx 14.3 mh/s 14.1 mh/s no problem. Smiley

Updating to 10.3 claymore vs 10.0 seemed to do it. I didn't change to Blockchain drivers as I said I would, I like Adrenalines Wattman profiles anyhow.

I'm tempted to kick the mem clock to 2075 (to reach 15.0 mh/s); its at 2000 rn but its probably not worth the risk.

Getting Between 10.2 and 10.7 mh/s in eth and 270 - 320 in sia.
Mining Eth only 13 mh/s

Total per day average is less while dual mining.

Thank you sir for sharing results, looks like eth mining is the best way to start.

Also thanks Branko for your suggestions.
