Title: Disappointed with msi armor oc Rx570 hynix
Post by: Dtrucksguitarfan on January 16, 2018, 04:50:29 PM
I'm new at this.  I've been mining monero with a 460 and a 560.  Ordered a Msi Armor OC RX570 from newegg at a decent price.

Got it installed last night and it's pretty miserable.  It's hynix memory.  I was getting 330h/s with my 560 and 380h/s with a 460.  I was expecting 700 from this.

I'm getting 513 :(

I tried to bios mod it.  Bricked it first time.  Fixed that.  Changed memory straps, flashed it again and it went from 520 down to the 513 where it is now.  I've sent the bios off for Matthev to work his magic.  Hope he is able to make this card perk up !

Default should not be like that, I guess minimum should be around 600 and after bios mod around 700.

I expected 650-700 stock.  I dont know why this card is so low.  Hopefully someone can mod it for a respectable figure.  I'm not sure what newegg return policy is but I may need to look into it.

This card is indeed one of the worst RX 570s that I've tried but that being said you should still do around 800H/s with it. Just take a look at Anorak's website for a modded bios. If you don't get at least 750+ with the right bios then the card might be faulty.

I tried a bios from there.  I thought it was the correct one.  It bricked it.  I used the 1500 memshift on this page

Perhaps I will try it again just in case it was a bad flash or something,
