Could u give me a link on that? I would like to learn it myself. Is it more then just copy the timings ?

Thx men, I will try that. Can't wait :p

Yes, you only have to copy the timings with the polaris bios editor. If you want you can also modify the core clocl though i prefer adjusting these on Wattool.

Softwares you need to flash your bios:
- polaris bios editor 1.41
- latest version of atiflash (afaik you can't use the version allowing you to flash polaris cards with a msdos usb stick like previously so you will need to have windows installed to flash your cards).

If you are unsure about what your doing, you can easily find tutorials on youtube (just type RX480 bios flash)


I forgot to mention : do backup your original BIOS !

Its pretty tough mate. I mean the calculations are easy enough. And I have no coding ability, but can be done. But need to study a lot about timings, and how wolf's / algo works in general to attain atleast 100% efficiency. Only attempt to change timings once you can 1) Understand the hex to timings of CAS / RAS / MISC. And then 2) How each one plays a role in the overall picture of things. I treat it like a puzzle and was a good learning opportunity.

Is it more then just copy the timings ? : Oh boy. Maybe it will be easy for you, but for me with absolutely no knowledge of hex / coding / computer shit. Took me 32 hours, that too with all the answers already provided. But then again this is my first time doing this.
This is wolf0's custom rom performance : https://ottrbutt.com/tmp/xmrwolf-01222017.png
Here's the thread of folks showing of with custom timings : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.17713641
And heres the thread about the custom timing calculations : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/custom-ram-timings-for-gpus-with-gddr5-download-links-updated-1758267

Good luck!

Hey guys

I am new to mining and next week I receive my parts to build a mining rig. I will use 6 sapphire Rx 480 nitro+ 8gb. I will try to flash the BIOS and play a bit with trixx tool for overclocking and undervolting. I am doubting if I should use wolf0 of claymores miner, Wich one is the best ? And how many hashrate can I get out of these cards stable ?

Thx in advance

730 h/s - 750 h/s. Wolf's Handsdown.
With custom timings that you can buy from Elivopp or someone else though id recommend Eli, you should see 850 h/s. If you are willing to learn how to do it yourself, you can there is a thread here on that.

Edit :-
And standard BIOS mod is copying the lower frequencies settings to the higher ones yes
Yes either copy the 1250 straps to 1750 or copy 1500 straps to 2000. Should get you to 750 h/s and power draw should be 90W - 130W from the wall if not mistaken per card.

Both miner are fine. Performance wise there isn't a big difference between them, however Claymore's miner got a 2% dev fee.
I would suggest you to play a bit around with the settings and see which miner turns out to work best for you.

With RX480 and standard bios mod, you should be able to get around 750 H/s.

yep, it works now, tnx.

same settings like claymore (1475 h/s) or wolf0 I get 1420 h/s and less watt
but I ran it for hour and I get too much rejected shares, almost 35%!

What cards are you using? Try this :-

{
               "index": 0,
               "threads": 2,
               "rawintensity": 504,
               "worksize": 4
            },
            {
               "index": 1,
               "threads": 2,
               "rawintensity": 504,
               "worksize": 4
            }
         ],

Ok, now I created bat file and miner start but I get fatal error connecting to pool




I guess something is wrong with config file?


This is my config
{
   "Algorithms":
   [
      {
         "name": "CryptoNight",
         "devices":
         [
            {
               "index": 0,
               "corefreq": 500,
               "memfreq": 1500,
               "fanspeed": 65,
               "powertune": 20,
               "threads": 1,
               "rawintensity": 640,
               "worksize": 16
            },
            {
               "index": -1,
               "threads": 2,
               "rawintensity": 16,
               "worksize": 16
            }
         ],
         "pools":
         [
            {
               "url": "ssl://xmr.suprnova.cc:5221",
               "user": "myuser.myworker",
               "pass": "mypassword"
            }
         ]
      }
   ]
}


can someone share config file for rx480?  i found it at page 12 Smiley


edit:
for url I set  "url": "stratum+tcp://xmr.suprnova.cc:5222",  and that should be ok now, but now I get new error


I don't have any clue how to solve this


use 5222

Did you try what a few of the posts above yours suggests to disable the onboard graphics? You can disable onboard graphics either via BIOS or device manager.

can someone help me, I wanted to try wolf0's miner but I never ran it successfully, I set up everything in config file but when I click on  miner.exe it start and turn off immediately
Can you please share your config file for it?
Do I need to delete other algorithms from folder (blake, groestl)?

thank you

Hold Shift + Right click on an empty part of the window inside windows explorer / This PC where your Miner is. Select Open COmmand from here. Type in Miner [name of config file].conf. Or just do a bat file within the folder where you have the miner, and type miner Miner [name of config file].conf hit enter and then pause I.e :-

miner xmr.conf
pause

or

Sgminer xmr.conf
pause

wolf -- can i put a failover pool in the same command line? using your latest v0.4/Linux/SimpleMinerOS. Thanks

Nope, it doesn't manage multiple pools.

Hi wolf - using your miner at "stratum+tcp://cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com:3355" ... I am getting rejects all the time. Is it compatible with Nicehash? Thanks

Wolf, is it possible to make the miner more VRAM hungry, and thus chugg out some extra h/s ?
I think i am an exception with 3.6VRAM usage on m R9 290, not really sure how much otherse are using (posisbly, no more than 2-2.5), but there are lots of people with 8GB.
