Title: 22MH on modded bios that's supposed to get 29.5
Post by: g3rr01 on December 01, 2017, 03:48:32 PM
I have this amd xfx 580 GTS Black Core Edition
The card I got ended up having hynix memory
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150794


I tried to mod my bios by using timings from this one bios that people are supposedly getting 29.5 on and I'm just getting 22 on it when I copied the timings and upp'd the memory speed to 2100

I followed this guide and idk what I did wrong? I thought if it booted and ran without crashing it should be getting the same hash rates  ???

Thank you for help in advance

XFX cards are wierd to do a Bios mod on. BBT has a Bios for your card in the description of the live stream he did on those cards.

The AMD blockchain drivers work with the Windows 10 v1709 Fall Creator's Update, but cause the UI to become unresponsive. I switched back to using the blockchain drivers with Windows 10 v1703 and they work fine. You can also try the latest Crimson Relive v17.1x.x drivers that are compatible with the Windows 10 FCU and toggle each GPU to 'compute' mode from 'gaming' in AMD settings. The latest drivers apply the blockchain driver Dag fix when in compute mode, but I switched back to using the blockchain driver with v1703 because Afterburner won't work with the latest Crimson Relive drivers .
