Just a question, are you having issues finding the timing "straps" (the clock dependent memory parameters) for some VBIOSes?

I mean, in an automated fashion.

No, it's not because of the straps, it's because of the default gpu/mem freq. values, and a pointer for the vddc value. Their offsets differ depending is the card a 460/560 etc.
Probably there is a more elegant way of finding these values, but i really did not spend much time on finding it Smiley

Not what I was asking - I'm asking in general, not because of the new support.

Oh, i think i don't have issues with finding straps, it works in an "automated" fashion , i mean im not defining it for every card by hand or something.
Now i don't check every timing if it is valid, if it looks good, it must be good Cheesy

What's the best (fastest) OS/driver/miner combo for dagger/hashimoto on these cards (assuming all your voltage and timing mods have already been done on the bios)?

I am guessing it is linux/gpupro/sgminer, but what about xorg or fglrx drivers or claymore's miner?

Or is there even a noticable difference from win+claymore or win+ethminer?

You need to edit VoltageObjectInfo such that you tell the driver to send the correct I2C codes (see your VRM controller's datasheet for which.)
hum, it seems I have to use "AtomBiosReader"... new to me, I will investigate . I'm now comfortable with PBE/SRBPolaris, but AtomBiosReader seems less noob friendly. Last time I disassembled a binary image, 1 Tflops was a dream to install in a secret military building. Grin

You need to do a PROPER undervolt to the VBIOS if you want it to work in Linux. I can do these, usually.
What is proper undervolt ?
My numerous tentatives show MaxPower and TBP (110->90W) have great effect on power consumption, but undervolting with SRBPolaris of PBE is not visible on the plug...
It seems it is advised to put same voltage for VDDCI and VDDC for the GPU. is it ?
I've tested recently VDDCI950/VDDCGPU950mV (but increased TBP/Maxpower)... not so huge, but very stable. Am I on the good direction?

Great editor! I finally managed to set the correct voltage on my msi rx480 without having to set it in the claymore miner. This means I can now run my rig undervolted in linux (I guess). Will send some "support" when it runs ok in linux. Thanks for this!

hmmz cheered too early. Still got no succes: when I set 800mv as voltage it runs at about 880mv. (consumes upto 100watt more for 5 cards). Any idea howto fix this?

880mV is great, i don't believe you could get it mining at 800mV.
Anyways, if static voltage isn't working for you, try putting in a pointer value (like 65285)

There is also Gigabyte RX 560 card with hynix memory, this is bios for it:

https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/192228/192228

Funny part is, it has strap for 2250, but you can't OC it that high
through Wattman

I wonder which version is better, one with micron, or hynix memory

This is a red dragon 460 2g, not 560.
Will add support soon.

Hi all,

    Just to update on the tuning of the cards running at 15.xx MH/s with GPU at 1000Mhz RAM at 1990Mhz Power limit set to -5 fan speed set to 60% temps are at about 57c at 40watts all using MSI Afterburner.


Sshot or it didn't happen

Thanks for reply man. But with original bios works all fine. This problem is only if i update edited bios. Sad

you don't have a problem with the bios editor, you have a problem with the video drivers you are using.

It was only the wind.
and then you need to go to the padding between the legacy VBIOS & the UEFI one, and remove enough such that the VBIOS image remains the same size
There are very rare bioses where it (remove part of the padding) is not possible.

so how do you add anything extra in those kind of bioses?

You get real creative. Find anything that you can remove. ANYTHING that can be thrown out must go.

Hello,
please can someone add support to bios editor for "Gigabyte Radeon RX 560 GAMING OC 4G"
http://imgur.com/l8To1gF
I can open bios file. But if i try to change memory clock and that flash bios something is wrong with drivers after reboot. There is a yellow exclamation mark in devices manager on Radeon rx560. GPU running like in safemode.

My original bios backup https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/193045/193045

Realy thanks for any solutions Smiley

I am willing to pay someone to undervolt my cards to my specifications so i can run a cool linux rig.

Anyone interested even the op, hit me up.
