I just picked up 5 x Sapphire Nitro+ SE (Micron Memory)

All 5 of them hash at 29.6-30.5mhs in silent mode without touching the bios. Running Aug 23 blockchain driver.

My oc settings are:
Core: 1150
Memory: 2250
Core Undervolt: -96
Memory Undervolt: -96
Fans: 50-80%

All above is applied via command line to Claymore 10.2

This gives a power at the wall of 125w per card and 83w in GPUz

The cards have been running for 12hrs with no errors at all and temps between 50-60C

The only odd thing i find is that in Polaris it only has 1 set of straps 0: which is why i havnt bios modded them.

ETH: 0x66ff2c45e37f0d574016c28651866ac07ddf27a5


You need a better Bios editor to correctly show straps on all rx580's - Here is a good one:

I have both the Sapphire Nitro+ and Nitro+ SE RX 580 (blue shroud cards). I have the best results with the Nitro+ non SE RX 580 cards. Both the SE and non SE cards overclock well after a simple Polaris Bios Editor v1.62 'one click timing patch' Bios mod and run cool. The non SE cards are cheaper and I prefer them. The blue RX 580 SE cards also have annoying blue led fans that can't be turned off.

shit that blue led for the fans makes it look spiffy as hell lol, though even I have to admit its lit up way more than I thought they were going to be lol. its a awesome lightshow with the lights off though


If I'm not mistaken, you might be able to at least change the colour of the blue fan lights with sapphire trixx - possibly even turn em off?  One thing for sure is that after mining with them for a couple of months, the original cool blue lights will turn greenish due to the heat that the gpu's put out.   I just picked up a batch of the SE blue cards this week and you can really tell the difference between my 3 month old batch and these new ones.

Download the latest driver from the AMD website if you're on Windows 10 v1709 and do a clean install after running DDU in safe mode to remove the old drivers. Be sure to enable the option in DDU to disable the Windows automatic driver installation.

With Windows 10 v1709 (Fall Creators Update), make sure you running the latest Crimson Relive 17.1x.x drivers with the 'compute' toggle on for each of the cards in AMD settings
I'm running on Win 10 v1709 and Crimson Relive 17.30.x. There is no GPU workload with "compute" toggle. My RX580 8GB are getting 25 MH/s on stock, should I downgrade Relive to 17.10 and I'll be able to see "GPU Workload" toggle there?

Edited:
I think it's fine to run on 17.30.x, because there is a note for the driver: This driver is not intended for graphics or gaming workloads.

With Windows 10 v1709 (Fall Creators Update), make sure you running the latest Crimson Relive 17.1x.x drivers with the 'compute' toggle on for each of the cards in AMD settings or the AMD blockchain drivers in Windows v1703. I have the same cards with the same dual Bios and get 31+ MH/s dual mining with DCR 875 MH/s with a core clock 1200 MHz memory clock 2100 MHz. I use the Polaris Bios Editor v1.6.2 'one click timing patch'. It automatically detects each memory type and adjusts the 1750 MHz and up straps with the bundled performance straps. PBE v1.6.3 and up adjusts the straps from 1500 MHz and up, but the 1750 MHz straps are more stable.

I check it hynix, when i try to mod it seemed half hynix and half samsung

https://ibb.co/dqNgr5


https://ibb.co/gfjBr5




Yes, I have 2 different memory types showing also (samsung & hynix) and cannot get any of my sapphire rx 580's 8gb Nitro + cards above 21mh ETH + 62mhz LBR (stock out of the box bios is 19eth and 57lbr) - I have tried many bios, manual mod, copy straps, everything - No need to try overclocking If I cannot even get the stock bios to hash higher ... dual memory is different with our cards reason for us having problems. I see a few other posts about this dual memory problem but no solutions yet.
 Also have 1 rx 480 8gb sapphire running on same rig  - mod strapped bios/samsung memory - the 480 is getting 23mhz ETH + 67 LBR ... outperforming each 580 --- talk about frustrating! lol
