To hold this speed it needed a power limit increase to +35%, at 30% it would fluctuate and sometimes drop to 521 H/s.
Great cryptonight miner this little beast
Wish AMD didn't suck at equihash, would have more viable coins to mine now.
You should ask yourself if pushing extra ~25% watts in the gpu's is worth the 10% extra hashrate, or maybe you dont have to pay for your electric, then its different ofcourse.
I tried to run all my rx550's at 900mV, but i got early crash, trying 975mV now.
Just did some more extensive testing of every single mhz on the card and I get the most consistent hash at 1292/2166 mhz.
It does 534 H/s with no fluctuation at all. Going higher than 2166 on the mem is not worth it, it goes as high as 545 H/s but always fluctuates to a low of 514 H/s.
My msi rx560 card does not require additional power connector. Draws ~50W, stock cooler on msi is big and does nice job, temp is 65C max (not horrible as I live in South Florida) and the mem gets plenty of airflow from shroud design.
Got the card in January for 119 usd, best value I ever got from gpu.
Found the ceiling on hash rate, next is working on reducing power usage, will test with lower core clocks.
2166 memory is pretty crazy, i run my hynix at 1900 and my elpida's at 1850.
that 50 watts, is that from gpu-z reading? because if so, thats a lot, the rx550's only do 20 watts on gpu-z.
