Ok so it's not just me.  I did the same.  Thank you

4g Decoding enabled from the MB Bios ?

HI

first of all i was following this thread from the start and i am giving a big THANK YOU to all of the people who shared their experience with the cards. Because of you i am getting stable 13,8 - 14 MH/s and i am truly happy with it.

I will share something more if i am sure about it.

But now i have a problem.

I have 12x sapphire RX 560 4GB Micron.
My Mobo is: Asus Prime Z270-P Gaming

I was working with only 4 GPU's because i am still waiting for more risers and psu.
Yesterday i got the rest of my cards. I flashed everyone with the working modded bios (and saved the original).
When i connect 6 cards (one on the mobo and 4 with risers), i can see the cards in the hardware manager, but only 2 of them are working. The other 4 has a yellow circle.
I tried to flash the original again and reinstall the driver. Also right click, update driver and choose the C0316027 file. Nothing worked.
I tried with 5 cards. Also 2 working and the other 3 not.
But when i only connect 4, they work.

The risers are fine, i tested them all. Also all the gpus are working.

Whats the problem? and how did you manage to get 6 gpus working?

Hello,

In MSI Afterburner it doesn't work. I had changed it all over PolarisBiosEditor and checked the running values with HWiNFO64.

Any have issues getting voltage control to work in afterburner with 560's?   I tried different drivers / beta versions of AB but no luck so far.  I know you can manually edit profiles/cardcfg but that doesn't give you the "power" graphs too :\

Hello everyone,

I have been watching the progress of your analysis on the RX 560 4GB and I would like to share my findings, since I have 2 units of Sapphire RX 560 Pulse 4GB myself.

My stats are as follows:

Miner: Claymore 9.7 Dual Mining - ETH + DCR
Current hash rate per card: 13.7 MH/s (ETH) + 365 MH/s (DCR)

I'm running for more than a month already both GPUs with the following settings (BIOS Modded):

- 1500 Strap to 1625, 1750 and 2000.
- MemClock increased from 1750 Mhz to 2017 Mhz (maximum safe without memory errors - validate with HWiNFO64)
- Increased Max Power Limit to 85
- GPU Core timings - all decreased and last one is 1120Mhz (minimum GPU Core) [Could be lower I think, but decreases dual mining]
- Max GPU Freq. = 1400 Mhz
- Max Memory Freq. = 2200 Mhz
- Decreased Max. Temp in FAN and PowerTune to 82ºC and decreased the overall FAN + Temps settings so it maintains the temperatures down.

- This is a very stable reesult, running for many days.

I have also pushed the memory clocks up, until 2150Mhz, but after 2025 Mhz it gets unstable and crashes the miner. I managed to reach 14.9 MH/s (ETH) + 400 MH/s (DCR) in Dual minig but totally unstable after a few minutes.

I hope it helps you guys getting a few more MH/s from your cards.

Thank you!

I'd agree with you about a week ago, now when I see someone asking 0.85 ETH or 0.1 BTC, I cheer them and say "go for it"

team what?  

100% agree though. I've see some idiot trying to sell a 4 card mining rig (470/480s) for like 2500$. Told him it was complete bullshit, like it would take over a year to ROI on that poor thing and it was maybe worth 1000$ tops. He assured me it was worth well over 2000$ with all the time and effort...offered him 150$ per card, never responded back lol

Jesus there are some greedy people in this thread.

Trying to sell modded BIOS' for 0.1BTC or 0.85 ETH - fuck the fuck off!

It takes 5 minutes to watch a youtube video (or search a forum, this thread is a good start) and mod & flash these BIOS' yourself.
Then a bit of effort to test and tweak your cards, which if you are serious about this is a joy not a burden.

As if miners aren't taking the piss out of each other enough already with the resale prices of cards (saw somebody on Ebay asking £500 for a 4GB RX470 Nitro+ just last week) now they are trying to cash in on newbs for something that they could do themselves with 5 minutes of research.

Where has the team spirit gone?

Can anybody show me an example of the xfx 560 single fan model hitting 14/15 with Hynix or Micron? I'm convinced that there is something fundemantally different about this model - I can't get past 13.5 with Micron or 12.5 with Hynix.

Ethereum-wise, probably not...I guess its just toying with technology...much more people use RX570/580 cards and
I often saw people going from 29.8 to 29.9 and cheering it as some kind of victory
Just check threads about those cards

I have similar configuration as you do, 2 cards in my PC, and one in main pci-e x16 conenctor have heat issues too, as
rest of system is very hot 8320E CPU and also very hot motherboard VRMs...

Everything should run much betetr on pci-e risers during this hot summer (32C in my PC room)

Definitely luck as it seems, have 2 same cards (SN is just +1) and one card is definitely little worse. Honestly, for now makes heat most problems for me, as in my rig I have cards right side by side (because of PCI-e slots are so close to each other and still waiting for PCI-e riser to solve it. I dont actually think that +0,5-1mh/s matters considering time spend with tuning bios (I guess you will agree).

Thats strange, as Sapphire is usually considered better than Gigabyte...but maybe its just luck

Left is hynix, right is micron

Micron (I tried your mem strap, but it does not bring me any higher mh/s than I have with my bios)

Hynix or micron memory?

If anyone interested, I can offer bios for Sapphire RX560 4GB OC - now @ 14,7mh/s
zero incorrect shares for me.

Honestly, there is no 100% BIOS for anyone as each card is quite different (I have 2 and with one, I just cannot reach more than 14,4mh/s with 0 incorrect shares).

Hello folks,
Dual mining: Expanse + DCR . RX560 4GB Micron. As you see there, Time of work is more than 2 weeks without reboot.  It works very stable!
 ~15 Mh/s +

Now, price is 1 ETC.

gpu-z shows 63W  and i under volt a bit (power limit +20, otherwise it clock down a lot)  it s with shader unlock
59w without unlock shader


it s not the only gpu what draws more than 75w on pci slot

i have some 270msi  i burn the 12V on the power riser from 2gpu's and i did not notice i restart computer after freeze then it burn my motherboard  last year when it was doing eth


i also notice rx470 use more power on the pci slot too when doing dual mining

i have a 6gpu ring with 2 psu , when doing dual mining at full speed, the psu what feed the motherboard & power riser shutdown
strange because it should be using the same as mining something else  and use more power on the 6 pin  


i just check my rx 560 with power connector  gpu-z shows 72W it s even worse but it s clocked some higher



i think i have some bad 460's  2 of 5 i could unlock the shaders, but i m not able to use custom traps  they all crash even with ram at 1750  


i just checked the power riser of the 460's they really hot, i just down clock a bit , don't wanna burn them, and need to try under volt some more


ouch have a burned riser i down clock and under volt yesterday  but look like really bad idea to dual mine on that gpu without additional power or at lease keeping power limit to 0

i see on the spec MSI RADEON RX 460 4GB OC  85W  so  85w-90 should not be a problem , i hope they test it before they sold it without extra power

i solder an extra 12v wire on my power riser , it s always on the same place on the pcb where it burns , so circuit on pcb is to small on that place

a 460 with no pcie power connector (IE only draws from the slot) that draws over 90 watts is so far out of spec for the card its crazy. card is rated for 75 watts max as its made to plug into a 16x slot thats only rated for 75 watts per pcie spec.

what does gpuz say its drawing? it will only show the gpu chip power usage not ram and other circuitry on the card but im curious as to what it says.

did you mod the bios power settings?

doesn't matter if idle computer use 60 or some more even if it s 100w so it still 92w per pci slot the gpu use
