Thank you guys, I decided to give it a shot... and it seems that with the "lifting" to the timings and a boost to the mem freq the results are much better than the stock bios even for Elpida model.
I'm getting about 390h/s @1875MHz but I'm testing the stability since already @1900 I'm getting BSODs in a bunch of seconds.
Don't you know if it is recommended to increase the mem voltage to try to work @2000MHz? Because at stock voltage (1000mV) I think it will be hard for this card to go beyond 1875MHz.
I would also consider to decrease a bit the GPU frequency and voltage not to stress the card but I don't know if it will worth.


I didn't play with cryptonight too much lately...but I think memory frequency is less important than core frequency for this algo...or, at least,
much more important than for ethash

I don't want to have headache playing with core and voltage. The card is almost cold under CryptoNight so I think I'll let it so.
Thank you.

Hi R0land, I bought one of this to test 11268-03-20G (Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX550 2GB)
Unfortunately it came with Elpida memory: max hash 290-300 on CryptoNight with sgminer 5.5.5-gm stock bios
Do you know if it worth to mod bios with Elpida mem?
I don't know how to have RX 550 cards with Micron mem. It seems they are random...
With this card you can reach 410 h/s @18W(GPU-Z).
With the 4GB Micron Version 450 h/s @23W(GPU-Z).

Playing a bit with rawintensity under sgminer I could hit and pass 400h/s stock volt, stock core clock, mem @1875 and card essentially cold: very satisfied!
Thank you!

It seems like rx560 is quite good in performing cryptonote algorithm compared to other gpu with same pricing range.

I think the RX 550 is also quite good in performing XMR ... more than 400 h/s with less power consumption compared to the RX 560.

Are you sure you can get more that 400h/s on 550? It seems it's also difficult for 560 to hit 400h/s. For a 550 it looks like a miracle.
It works since 4 weeks without problems at my home.  Grin
The RX550 is the perfect gpu for mining xmr, because cryptonight charges the memory and 8 gpu cores are enough for the rest. The bottleneck is the memory.

What brand is your rx 550?
Saphire Pulse Radeon RX550 4GB Micron Memory

Hello !

I am thinking of buying 3 cards 550 or 560, I see good results of hashes in cryptonight, however nobody puts the consumption on the wall, can someone give me real watt data on the wall for 550 or 560 and 400h / s?

Thank you all!

Can't harm, for the most part, except if you got one of new cards that have 1500 strap as the last one, instead usual 2000 or 2250

As in, 1500 is the highest strap, or the 1500 strap has already been copied to the higher clocks (ie - it's already optimized)?

FWIW, here is the product page: http://www.xfxforce.com/en-us/products/amd-radeon-rx-500-series/rx-560-4gb-sf-rx-560p4sfgr

I don't know where the get the "effective" memory rate of 7000MHz from... a combination of bus bit width and the usual double data rate factor or what?

One good thing is this appears to be the "real" RX 560 with 16 compute units and 1024 stream processors, rather than the cut-down version with 14/896.

Hmm... I picked up an XfX RX 560 from Best Buy this weekend mainly because it was the only halfway decent card in stock, but reading through this thread it seems it may not have been such a bad impulse buy.

Are there any good straps specifically for Cryptonight, or are they mainly geared towards Ethash? I know there is some overlap in the requirements between the two, but Cryptonight generally likes more core clock than Ethash.

How about just doing the one-click optimization in Polaris BIOS Editor?

Eth 16Mh
Cryptonight 440H


Cant find who posted the handmade straps, but it works an absolute treat.




You're probably lucky and got better than usual 1500MHz memory that usually come with Hynix RX560s...my Gigabyte cards
can't reach 2200MHz even with default factory straps

Since theres not much info about this GPU, lets post various coin/algorithm hashrates here:

ETH: 15.5 MH/s with Claymore 9.7, ETH only
ZEC: 110 H/s with claymore 12.5 Zcash miner, raised to 158 on Claymore 12.6
MONERO: 459 h/s claymore cryptonote miner 9.7 beta
ETH/DCR dual mining with Claymore 9.7: 15MH/s ETH, 298MH/s DCR
ETH/SIA dual mining with Claymore 9.7: 14.9MH/s ETH, 198Mh/s SIA

decred with sgminer: 444MH/s
cryptonight with sgminer: 500h/s (so preferable instead claymore cryptonight)

Signatum (skunkhash) with official sgminer 8.3MH/s
Signatum (skunkhash) with prospector0.9.6MH/s

SIA only with propspector 0.10   485MH/s


Edit (micron memory only):

16.3 MH/s ETH with Claymore 10.0
493 H/s monero with Claymore 10.2



Monacoin: 16.1MH/s  lyra2rev2 algorithm


Calculator for popular coins:

https://goo.gl/UMhxEr


It looks like it can be a good option to mine monero with a cheap and energy efficient 560. I am a bit out of mining now, but I may try later on.

Can you please tell me at what core and memory frequencies the best values are obtained for equihash? Interested in ZEC and forks. Is it worth it to flash BIOS for new straps?

Hi guys, since there are not so many info about this card all around I also landed here in this thread.
I'm looking for the best CryptoNight card for my next mining rigs.
Considering the hashrate compared to the power consumption and not last the price of the card it seems the RX 560 is one of the best candidate.
But reading all the posts here it seems that only the cards with Micro memory are hitting and passing the 400h/s on CriptoNight.
So having to buy about a dozen of cards I don't want to risk to be wrong.
My question is: is there a way to know which cards will come with Micro memory?
Is the model enough? I could read here that just a model of Gigabyte (moreover just the r1.0) comes with Micro mem.
Can anybody drive me in the right direction to get the right cards?

I read above someone is also getting wonderful results with 550 on XMR. But reading a bit around it seems that 550 (on stock) is getting around 250h/s. So 400h/s looks a bit far target to reach. Can anybody clarify me?

Thank you very much in advance for your precious attention.

I have 4 x RX550 with 4 GB runing @415h/s and 1 x RX550 2GB running @405h/s.
0 Errors in HWInfo64 running since 4 Weeks.
Very low Power consumption, better than RX560 !

I modded the memory straps in the VBIOS, like all other cards.

Thank you very much R0land,
I'll give it a shot since it's still possible to find these 550 on the market and at a cheap price...
The problem is to find the ones that use Micron memory.
Are your 550s based on Micron memory or what?

ETH/Lib 12Mh / 30MH.
XMR 330H

Nicehash, so latest claymore

I have 2 x MIS 560s 4Gb Hynix.
No additional PCIe power required on these, which is often handy but limits the cards.
1500 to 1750 strap. Running at 1750 memory. 1500 timings don't work above 1750, Can get to 2000 mem at 1750 timings, but only just gets back up to the same performance as the 1750mem running at 1500 strap, but with more W and heat.
