Title: Need advice for the RX 470 cards mining Post by: AngelSky on February 13, 2018, 07:33:02 PM Hi bros, I own the Rx 470 4 GB, 6 cards rig. I would like to know which coins best to choose for mining. As of now I am mining crypto night, equihash and ethereum with the awesome miner.
I see hash power reduced to 16 MH per card but previously it gives around 22 MH per card so what would be expected cause of this fall of hash power? Experts share some suggestion. My friend suggest me go with the nice hash mining even this also providing me a 16 MH only so tell if I change the os or other other mining software would be acceptable?

That will apply the AMD epoch Dag size fix and give you the hash rate you had before the Dag got over 2GB.

Polaris bios mod do by almost every miner. But if you are happy enough with stock bios, it's okay.https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/DH-024.aspx Title: Re: Need advice for the RX 470 cards mining Post by: AngelSky on February 14, 2018, 01:38:54 PM You need to use the AMD blockchain drivers or the latest Adrenaline drivers and switch to Compute mode from Graphics mode in AMD settings.

Since I am newbie to the mining field. I am not sure what bios modification you are mentioning here. Please elaborate me bro.

Since I am newbie to the mining field. I am not sure what bios modification you are mentioning here. Please elaborate me bro. a simple way to do it : 1. you need to download Atiflash, Polaris bios editor, Pixel clock patcher (atikmdag patcher). 2. Save your original bios using Atiflash, duplicate it, one as your backup if something bad happened. and another one you would modification it on Polaris bios editor. 3. Open your Polaris Bios Editor (PBE), I suggest using Version 1.6.2 or above with one click modification (since you didn't have much experience on it). 4. Save your Modded bios and then flash it using Atiflash to your cards. 5. Use atikmdag patcher for handling bios signature, So the system would recognize your device.

A much detailed tutorials here, Kudos to Mattthev https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1954245.0 Take note of the requirements, especially drivers and clocks, check also your GPU as it has something to do with the straps/timings Title: Re: Need advice for the RX 470 cards mining Post by: zokilnmet on February 14, 2018, 02:51:02 PM My results in mining by this card:
