How do one check if one has samsung memory? I got 4 cards. But i cant seem to clock them as much as i want to. They simply cannot handle it. Is there an easy way on the computer to check it? Do i need to download anything?

Use the GPU-Z for this purpose. It shows the memory manufacturer.

Thanks. I have Samsung memory. Do you mean is 2100 a normal frequency?

Yes I strongly believe my card has chip Smiley

Yes, to begin with, install 2100 and check the stability in HWINFO. Of course with included mining. And depending on the result, increase or decrease by 10MHz.

Hi,

I have Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 580, factory Overclocked.

I have couple of questions on GPU tweaks:

1) The stock Memory Clock is 2000. What is the safe max limit/range of Memory Clock setting in which there is no/minimal harm to the GPU?

2) The stock Core Clock is 1411. What is the safe min limit/range of Core Clock setting in which there is no/minimal harm to the GPU?

3) What is the safe min limit/range of Core Voltage setting in which there is no/minimal harm to the GPU?

4) Does BIOS modding inflict any physical damage (in the longer run) to the GPU?

5) Do I need to further Overclock it provided it is already factory overclocked.

6) On Claymore, my GPU temp is maintaining at 61C and fans are 53%. Are these safe numbers for longer run? Are my fans running bit fast?

Looking forward for your valuable input.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards,

Rizwan

1. The working maximum is 2100-2150 (I have 2100). Memory errors will be higher. Everything depends on the success of the memory chips on this particular card.
2. It depends on what algorithm you are going to mine. The ETH and forks depend on the memory frequency, and the frequency of the GPU is not important. Therefore, it is reduced. 1146MHz for example. Equihash on the contrary depends on the core frequency.
3. For ETH it is reduced. 956 mV and below. Some even put 880mV.
4&5. Everything is possible. Just all settings - core and memory frequencies, memory timings, voltages - are set in the BIOS. This is the answer to question 5.
6. Normal

and RTFM!

Thank you. Its great insight for me to start.

For how long you have been running on 2100? Is it a myth or reality that too high overclocking reduces the life of the card?

Does Overclocking and Undervolting have some correlation?

For Samsung chips, this is the normal frequency value. I change the algorithms, so there is no constant memory load. Does your card have any chips?

Certainly any acceleration shortens the life of the card. But if you do not get carried away, and do not bring the temperature of the chips to 90 degrees, I think overclocking + 10% will not lead to anything bad

Fail to plan, and you plan to fail.

I would recommend you START READING the dozens of already present threads, instead of creating new threads for EVERY question you have. If you continue to spam the forums with unnecessary threads, we would have to ask the mods to start deleting them.
