I had a negative experience with BIOS update, firmware fell and had to carry to the service center for the recovery. You have to be careful.
You can usually do it yourself, if you have another card, or onboard video But of course, always be careful about what you're doing |

The chips on the GV-RX560GAMING OC-4GD/FW0/06F3 are marked as 7WB77 D9VVR.
MSI RX560 AERO ITX 4G OC - 7WB77 D9VVR
Gigabyte GV-RX560OC-4GD - 7SA47 D9TRZ
That's the answer why the msi aero and gigabyte gaming behaves in a similar way - they use the same memory chip.
D9VVR is MT51J256M32HF-80:B
Now that is interesting...your ordinary GB seems to have 1500MHz chips, so no wonder it doesn't work good, but these with D9VVR if that's indeed MT51J256M32HF-80:B should work even better than my cards, as that indicate 2000MHz chips...now you got me curious enough to go buy one, but lucky as I am, I'll probably get one with 1500MHz Hynix  |

You are right, merit is made to filter out all the people who really deserve promotion and ignore the rest, according to them the benefits of buying is the way out but no, buying a service is a difficult thing to do because of the risk of trust. from moderator
Honestly, I wonder why the merit system has not been in place for a long time now. If you look at most threads now, you will know straight on as to how sanity has actually come to reign, and it is improving even the more over time as we keep seeing shit accounts with shit posts and lower alts getting bounced since they know the possibility of ranking up anyway is going to be hard. Anyone who ends up buying will be caught and that would be the end to their account. I agree with you, but what do you think, how long it will take for you to become Sr. member? |

Interesting...sounds like problem I have with Hynix version of my Gigabytes...it actually uses 1500MHz
memory and OCs about 300MHz lower than micron...maybe they started using same trick with micron too
I could try other straps if you have some. It would be great if you could take picture of memory chips, so we can check what frequency they're rated for...from BIOS, I only see that they use mt51j256m32 revision B, with slightly different timings than revision A |

Einsteinium added to ezpool.net.---=========== miner settings ===========--- stratum+tcp://eu.ezpool.net:2442 Username: your_einsteinium_address pass : x ====================================== Is it still worth to mining? I prefer to buy and hold for a long time, like a few months. Who is mining could inform the expenses and profits with mining? ~on the new chain  weee when are you going to launch weee? It should be today as I correctly remember count down which disappeared from the website a few hours before 00:00:00? your guess is a good as mine.. i'm digging for more info myself :\ hmmm |

Hi Branko,
I've tested the strap on 2 GPUs:
1. Gigabyte GV-RX560OC-4GD - ETH 15.6MHz@2125 and hang@2150
2. MSI RX560 AERO ITX 4G OC - works unstable even at 1950MHz
I've just tested one more GPU:
Adapter 2 (BN=04, DN=00, FN=00, PCIID=00001002, SSID=000022FF)
Asic Family : Polaris11
Flash Type : GD25Q41B (512 KB)
Product Name is : GV-RX560GAMING OC-4GD/FW0/06F3
Bios Config File: RX560GO4.FW0
Bios P/N : P/N Not Available
Bios Version : 015.050.002.001.000000
Bios Date is : 01/07/18 02:14
The result is the same as for the msi aero - works unstable even at 1950MHz Interesting...sounds like problem I have with Hynix version of my Gigabytes...it actually uses 1500MHz memory and OCs about 300MHz lower than micron...maybe they started using same trick with micron too |

I've just tried the latest drivers (18.3.2) from amd... Ok, it was just a waste of time. Completely. 1. AB doesn't work properly with these drivers 2. The 'Compute Workloads' can't be switched on for some of my GPUs for some reason 3. The 'Radeon Settings' software is f'cking sloooooow and extremely f'cking inconvenient (I was very close to smashing my laptop, waiting while the next UI screen is being opened after a button is clicked) 4. I've not managed to get acceptable hashrates 5. Rolled back to the blockchain edition drivers original old blockchain driveers are known to draw more power
Seems, power consumption is approximately the same for the both. Branko, what exact version of the drivers do you use, please? Always latest, only problem from your list that I have is that wattman is slow sometimes...AB often doesn't work, but I stopped using it long ago because of that Hi, Branko!
I have RX 560 Gaming OC 4G card and want to try how much better you settings will hash.
But when I try to flash I got an error
=== Flashing card 2 ===
Old SSID: 22FF
New SSID: 22ED
SSID mismatched
ERROR: 0FL01
Does it mean that you bios is incompatible?
Sorry if it is a stupid question, I do not have much experience with replacing bios with different one, up to now I have was modifying original bioses only.
There are at least two versions of that card (rev 1 and rev 2, my bios is for rev 1)...quite possible there are new revisions with less shaders, too |

This is how the Ripple chart of this quarter looks like:  Hopefully nobody has a major investment in Ripple. The current price is the lowest in this quarter. 95% coins have similar chart...what that proves? |

I remember people telling me that mining 2 BTC per day with my old graphic card is unprofitable because BTC is only 3 cents, and I spend 10 cents electricity, so I'm 4 cents in red

Thats the first time it happened to me. I give a look on the internet and there is all this story about unlocking the shaders and so on, and a lot of people unable to flash the bios.
Got me thinking, I remove the fan , and there are 4 chip from Elpida ELPIDA/EDW4032BABG-70-F, that, according to the datasheet are 4 GB GDDR . Just to confirm I removed a 550 4 gb Asus, and it the same "configuration" but the chip are from micron.
So, What I have is probably a 4gb, cutted somehow in the bios to 2 gb.
In the process of copying the bios and restoring it something changed and now isn't working as 2 GB, even if its recognized as 2 gb from the miners
Is this possible or there is an easier solution to what happened ?
Its "safe" to try to install a stock bios of a 460 4GB on it ?
They're 4 gigaBITS, 4x4 gigabits = 16 gigabits = 2 gigabytes |

Btw, if by "blockchain drivers" you mean ones from 23. august 2017, try latest adrenaline instead,
as original old blockchain driveers are known to draw more power
I meant that drivers (Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition Beta for Blockchain Compute Driver Version 17.30.1029 (Windows Driver Store Version 22.19.659.0). I have tried the Adrenalin Edition drivers a couple of times. But each time I got lower hashrate than with the blockchain drivers. Perhaps, I should try once again. Thank you for the hint. Maybe you didn't do this? https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/DH-024.aspx |

This is rev 1.0   Btw, if by "blockchain drivers" you mean ones from 23. august 2017, try latest adrenaline instead, as original old blockchain driveers are known to draw more power |

Branko, any idea, why power consumption of my GPU is higher than yours one, please?
thanks
Thats pretty crazy, I can't think about any other reason but bug in HWinfo, or AMD driver giving wrong info in either your or my case Interesting to note that your card has both bigger average fan speed, and whole 7C bigger average temperature...is it GB rx560 Rev1 with 2 fans and additional PCI-E power conenctor? It's GV-RX560OC-4GD GPU (not sure is that rev1 or rev2, with 1 fan and no additional power connector): Adapter 1 (BN=03, DN=00, FN=00, PCIID=00001002, SSID=0000230A)
Asic Family : Polaris11

Product Name is : GV-RX560OC-4GD/F60/0696
Bios Config File: RX560O4.F60
Bios P/N : P/N Not Available
Bios Version : 015.050.002.001.000000
Bios Date is : 10/31/17 03:57 Also, I'm using the latest version of HWinfo and blockchain edition of the amd drivers. The fan speed is bigger because I use AB software fan control with custom fan speed curve. PS. Today I'm going to test the strap on another GV-RX560 edition GPU. Will let you know the results later. That one is rev.2, its worse than rev 1, but interesting that it actually draws more power...maybe hwinfo actually measures only power drawn over pci-e slot, and don't add power drawn over additional connector? Although that doesn't make much sense when you look at stronger cards that draw most of power from additional connectors |

Ripple Labs Inc, a San Francisco-based blockchain developer famous for the XRP token, lost a home-court battle with rival R3 Holdco over ownership of its cryptocurrency, XRP.Ripple’s (XRP) is down by -4.19% to $0.75
It didn't lose "home-court battle with rival R3 Holdco over ownership of its cryptocurrency", it only lost its bid to hold the court hearings in its home state of California. |

Those are impressive numbers. So the micron strap is at 2000 in your BIOS?
I see you're running 1180mhz/890 mv core. Memory is at 2140mhz but what volts are you giving to it?
I think I have an RX 460 lying around, ill see how high it goes with this strap ...
I change 2000MHz on micron and 2000+2250 on hynix, because theres no point changing lower straps...if for some reason default 1750MHz strap doesn't work, you have bricked card that won't even boot...same goes for changing default frequencies in BIOS...if card won't work, you'll get bricked card that you have to spend time to get back to working condition Both memory and core are set to 875mV in BIOS (but memory is actually working at 2240 in my case  ) |
