Heliox - if the power saving friendly version for Windows available yet? I have Sapphire 480 8GB. Thanks!
I am tempted to use the full-power version, but I just busted a breaker the other day and wouldnt want to take the chance...

can i use this rom for asus 8 gb?

Dual mining is only producing 23 & 350ish MH. However, solo is producing 31. Claymore is only reading the card as a 4gb. Am I doing something wrong to get such low dual mining?
that does not sound right you should be getting at least 27-28 eth and 400 sia, the whole point of dual mining is to keep close to max ETH hash rate and mine SIA as a bonus

any news about how to disable win10 driver signature check permanently?

and finally, use this tool (while booted into Test Mode which is now the default for every boot, so simply reboot from Safe Mode "normally" = into Test Mode now):
http://www.ngohq.com/?page=dseo
to locally self-sign the cracked DLL (since Test Mode requires a valid test signature!) -> copy-paste the line above when asked for the DLL file location
(Don't try to use the tool to enable Test Mode! Issue the bcdedit command above manually. This tool is for Windows 7, not >=8 but it can still sign anything anywhere...)
have you tried yourself? I didn't manage to make it work without "7" option at reboot http://www.ngohq.com/?page=dseo

btw thanks a lot to eliovp and boysie also, now running 5x480 at 155MH/s

Follow these steps
1: (while everything is at stock, so stock rom, stock driver) i execute this command first (as admin)
2: I reboot to safe mode(Hold Shift while clicking reboot) and i replace that atikmdag.sys file.
3: I reboot back into windows with that replaced atikmdag file. Windows should load perfectly, same for your drivers.
4: I flash my rom (command line atiflash, also as admin)
5: I reboot with signature checks disabled (also holding left shift while hitting the reboot button), you can do this in the next screen after you clicked reboot while holding left shift. You'll get a menu and you just do this. (same applies for Safe mode)
6: Everything should look perfectly fine when rebooted (i do not get the "test mode" message in the lower right corner. It just works
)
Ps.
More than 12hrs rock solid.

Well, first of all: Thanks for these BIOS images.
Here is the proper (and I think the only actually working) way of permanently dealing with the driver signature checks:
in Safe Mode, overwrite your

Is it possible have similar rom for RX470 4GB card too ?

One little question...
I'm thinking about buy a XFX RX480 8GB, someone tested this GPU with this bios? TIA!

If that is the reference card, then you can use the BIOS as all the reference cards are the same. Otherwise, you cannot.

Hello can you give me the link rom 480 ref giga 8Gb? Mod big thanks

Haven't had time to read all the replies.. sorry for that.
For the linux guys.
Rom is here: Here
For Windows 10 users, you can do this:
i) Press Windows Key + X to open Power User Menu. Select Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
ii) Once the Command Prompt open, enter bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS and press Enter. Then enter bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON and press Enter.
iii) Close Command Prompt and restart your PC.
If this fails for some reason, you can reboot with Signature checks disabled by rebooting into advanced options (Hold left shift key while hitting reboot button) and hit F7.
You need to copy the modified atikmdag.sys file into your drivers folder as well (C:/Windows/System32/Drivers)
File can be found here: Here
Rom has modified timings and higher limits. (Memory 2275, higher tdp limit...)
I'll do an energy friendly rom later this week.
For the Windows 7 users, i'll look into that this week.
Greetings

Is this needed every time i reboot my rigs with modified roms ?
Or is it just one time ?
Preparing for modding my 480s later this week.

Heliox... don't forget W8.1 too. If 120w/32MHs/60c is stable on non-WIN10... this is great news for me. But I dont mind converting some to Ubuntu rigs. Can you share the Linux environment you used for the stable Linux version? Thanks
Haha, just read your post over at Ethereum Forums which is exactly the same :tongue: Made me laugh
I didn't test on a unix system, got some friends over at ethereumos who did some testing.
But i'll try to keep eveyrone up to date!
LOL.... there are not many gurus out there that has a sense of humour
- ha ha!Thanks for the great work on the ROMs.

Thanks,will try your rom when have little time available.
Problem is:
1.To reduce power-draw need to lower VDDC.
2.To reduce VDDC need to reduce VCCIO(the memory voltage in Wattman,but that is not the memory voltage,that is the memory controller voltage)
3.To reduce VCCIO the memory frequency will drop ,for 2170-2200 i found 5 cards need 0.92 .
4.0.92 VCCIO will limit the VDDC shown in Gpu-z to 0.9187-0.9250 resulting in 75-80 power draw reported in Gpu-z. ( at 1020 core )
This is all on stock rom which i run 1020 core / 2200 memory and resulting in 27 mh/s on all of my 5 cards . Would be curious the gains tighter timings make,can you test in this conditions too ?
Very happy with my results for RX480 however if additional 2-3 Mh/s can be gained in similar power consumption that would be absolutely awesome

1. True
2. First time i hear that :p and it's VDDCI
You're right about the memory controller though.3. Depends.. not every card is the same
4. Interesting, going to test that out..
At this moment, over 1hr rock solid at 31Mh+
Stats on pool can be seen here: Link
Surely,try to lower VDDC to 0.90 with memory controller voltage stuck at 1 V ,you will see that the vddc reported in gpu-z is 1 V and not 0.90 that you set
4 of my cards will do 1020 core at 0.90 VDDC,one needs 0.925
Please test 1020 / 2200 with better memory timings , as i said on stock rom this is 27 mh/s
