Hi guys, i have searched on this website and found many guys, who was able to get hashrate about 14MH/s with RX550. Please help, how can i reach that?  :o

I did bios mod - 1500straps, shaders unlocked, OC => and it equals hashrate about 13MH/s, but not stable.

Could you give me some tips, what to do better?

Lexa or Baffin ? Mining what with which miner ?
Wrote down the setting here, and may be, someone will help

Depends on each card man, it's not a exact science
13mhs is very good on a 550

Just because someone has it working at 14mh does not mean that is the norm. Its all very specific to the parts used to construct your card, you should be happy with 13mh on that junker

Baffin. Mining with Claymore 10.6.. I tried Claymore 11.6. but i ve got only 12mh/s with that.

I set GPU clocks 1124MHz and 2000MHz for memory.

I saw photo with mining rig with 5x Rx550 with hashrate 72MH/s (14,5MH/s per card).

I know what baffin's can unlock gpu units.
You do that ? Maybe there is the secret.
Before i thik 550 can give 10-11mh only

yes, i unlocked compute units already. 10CU before, and after unlock 12 CU.

I think only samsung memory could give you 14mh/s because in rx 570 and rx 580 if your card is samsung memory you can get higher hashrate.
Try to use the GPU-z and check if what memory type of your card.
If your memory card is hynix you get low hashrate and micron memory could give you around 11 to 13 mh/s.

its micron memory.  :o

With 2 cards, rig was stable 13.3MH/s per card, but after i add third card its unstable about 11-13.2MH/s ,

and after some hours there is error: Watchdog: GPU hangs in OpenCL call, exit error.

and sometimes BSOD :(

You unlocked the cu with srbpolaris ?
Have you pimped your timing ?

Claymore starting with 11.4 does have a better kernel for  baffin

did everything ?

ok, now you launch claymore mining ethereum only and let it figure out the intensity 8/12 that's the range

Then: you run hw info and look for no error, if no error increase the memory.

Now you dual mine xvg!

Put the same -dcr with the same number Claymore suggest for "Ethereum only"

+- 1
and TA - DA!
you will get  around 14.5
unless I forgot something..
got 3 baffin with micron, don't worry you will get that

I have 18 Asus RX 550 4GB cards. They are all Hynix memory. 14 get 14.1 -14.4 MH/s, the other 4 get between 12.5 and 13.8 MH/s.

GPU: 1200 MHz / 900 mV
Mem: 2000 MHz / 900 mV

Bios modded!

to skablast:

Yes, i unlocked CU with SRBpolaris v3.4, then i apply 1500+ straps in srbpolaris, and flash bios.  I will play with claymore 11.4 or 11.6 and improve OC now, thanks.. wish me luck :D



to whoismoses:

its great, ill try your clocks, thanks

you know the power consumption? real power consumption

i set Claymore 11.7 with these parameters: -mode 1 -asm 2 -dcri 6 -etha 1 -ethi 12

then core 1200 and memory 2000. and yeeees ive got 14 - 14,2 MH/s. ..... but very high temperature, 68C and 98%fan.. should it be better?  8) 8)

For a 9 card rig, the power meter at the wall reads 464 watts.

mmm, lower that core,by 1030/875 ?

dcri 6 isn't exactly the number I got written down, are you Dual mining or not ?

Could you tell me your Claymore parameters, please?

Sorry, just saw your reply...

-epool ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555
-ewal <eth wallet>
-epsw x
-etha 1
-mode 1
-ftime 10
-gser 1
-dcri 9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9
-lidag 1
-minspeed 125

can you tell me how to bios modded ? and share aplications please ?

Learning how to BIOS modding is something you can find out for yourself by simply searching Google. I would strongly advise that you follow online guides very carefully because you could end up "bricking" your GPU if you screw up the timing or BIOS itself.

Thanks for sharing guys, gonna get some 550 ^^

I don't recommend buying 550 cards at today's prices. I got all of mine for $85-$100 USD. You are better off getting RX 570/580 4/8 GB on amazon for $280 - $320.

guys can you help me? Do you have some idea, why my hashrate cant get 14mh/s anymore? After yours first help, I got 14.2MH/s with gpu 1200MHz and memory 2000MHz. But gpu had high temperature, so I tried to install latest AMD driver using DDU and flash new bios to my card. But after that, I can get from my cards only 13.6MH/s with gpu 1124MHz and memory 2000MHz.

if i OC gpu to 1200, hashrate falls down to 12.5MH/s. so i have no idea whats wrong with it. i tried to flash back my bios, install Blockchain driver, set claymore parameter -ethi 1 to 16. But still same problem.

Do you have some tips how to solve?

If you put the old bios back, something else has to be different.... you might have just learned your lesson...

ive got 13,9MH/s with clocks 1150MHz and 2000MHz, but after some automatic restart at night -> clocks were reset to default values. so I OC it again to 1150 and 2000MHz, but now i cannot get 13,9MH/s. Ive got only 12,3MH/s with these clocks. wtf? Do you know what's happened? Now if i set clocks to 1124 and 2000, i can get 13,5MH/s. Whats happened, do you have some idea?  ??? ???

Before -> 1200MHz and 2000MHz => 14,2MH/s
after something -> 1200MHz and 2000MHz => 12,3MH/s .... so i changed clocks to 1150MHz and 2000MHz
now after restart -> 1200 and 2000 => 12,3MH/s , with 1150 and 2000 => 12,3MH/s ..... so only with 1124 and 2000 => 13,7MH/s  ??? ??? ???

i dont know whats wrong with it.

I have this card also, with lexa/hynix memory. Maybe you can share your mod bios to me. Plz contact me if the bios not free of charge. Thx.

Hello i reach 14,7 mh with my RX550 Sapphire Lexa Pro and Micron memory. i will upload a screen later.
in my opinion, every RX550 will reach 14 mh with the right timings.

go back with the drivers

I have one card sapphire rx550 pulse oc with lexa pro and micron. 12.5 Mh only. Can i have your bios ?

That depend the type gpu's memory, eg. micon,elpida,samsung etc. I thing samsung that's can get 13-14mhs, the other just stack at 12mhs max.
You can use PolarisBiosEditor to mod your bios, just click "ONE CLICK MINING PATCH" . For change the timing strap section i can not suggest it, because too harmful for the GPU.

Hey. Which card manufacturer? Give your OE bios.

Mine are RX550 2GB cards with baffin core and elpida memory.

986mhz core and 1901mhz mem should give you around 14mh. I even downvolt them to 800mv in OverclocknTool. Running cool at 62-66 celcius

how u mine eth with 2gb cards? can you share your ways, thanks

got a lot of "ADL: Cannot find any AMD adapters" in debug message?

Hey man I have this exact same card, actually 6 of them, and I'm having loads of problems increasing my hash rate, would you be able to share you bios ? I would love to try it out, currently mi mining turtle coin on the chuckwa2 algo

Man, this discussione is from 2018. You cann't mine eth with that kind of 4GB card at reasonable speed in 2021..

Go to whattomine and see by yourself what's best for you

You will see that you can mine 5.5 $day  in total of erg with 6 of that card.
ERG is mined with autolikos2 algos.
SRBMiner and TRM are the two best miner out there
You will be able to reach around 25 MHs per card.
In order to do so, is better to increase the frequency of the Lexa core.
YOu will find more info in the threads of the miners

Trtl is another option, as you can see by yourself. 10 MHS / card is about right with that algo and that card
 

He can mine ETC+ZIL also, on ERG it goes to 30mh per card.


Use polaris editor and strap your cards

I looked at the discussion of the miner on this video card, and found an interesting point.
On almost every page, users ask for an original BIOS for a video card :)
Before flashing the BIOS, save the original BIOS of the video card in order to restore it if it turns into a brick ..
