So, I paid for (.3 ETH) the modified 560 bios that minerscott posted here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2024062.msg%msg_id%

He assured me that it would work for my XFX single fan 560 (hynix). I repeated the same steps I've used multiple times with other cards - and his supplied bios file rendered the GPU inoperable (in both Windows and EthOS). He assured me that I just needed to try again, which I did, with the same result. It ended up being a lot of frustration just trying to get the cards working again.

He was very nice (we've got probably 20x emails back and forth), and gave me a different bios to try, which also failed. He then went unresponsive and it has been a week since he has emailed me. I'm out the ETH and have my GPU's plodding along at roughly 12/Mh, thanks to a free bios somebody posted elsewhere. If anybody has a link to better version I'd love to have it.

I'm not going to rule out that life simply got in the way, so if you're reading this Scott, I'm happy to listen to an explanation and will take this down if you can either supply a working bios or refund my payment. This is basically my only option at this point.

Not looking for sympathy - I clearly should have invested the time into figuring this out myself. Looked for an easy way out and paid for it.  Won't be paying for bios files anymore.

Experinced the very same situation with that guy. Extremly polite at the begining, then it turned out that the bios is crappy and he disaaperared. Gave him a chance to reply for a long period, but nothing, so don't buy anything from him.

To all miners with RX560, who achieved 14mh/s and more.

What driver version you guys use ?

Cheers

HI

first of all i was following this thread from the start and i am giving a big THANK YOU to all of the people who shared their experience with the cards. Because of you i am getting stable 13,8 - 14 MH/s and i am truly happy with it.

I will share something more if i am sure about it.

But now i have a problem.

I have 12x sapphire RX 560 4GB Micron.
My Mobo is: Asus Prime Z270-P Gaming

I was working with only 4 GPU's because i am still waiting for more risers and psu.
Yesterday i got the rest of my cards. I flashed everyone with the working modded bios (and saved the original).
When i connect 6 cards (one on the mobo and 4 with risers), i can see the cards in the hardware manager, but only 2 of them are working. The other 4 has a yellow circle.
I tried to flash the original again and reinstall the driver. Also right click, update driver and choose the C0316027 file. Nothing worked.
I tried with 5 cards. Also 2 working and the other 3 not.
But when i only connect 4, they work.

The risers are fine, i tested them all. Also all the gpus are working.

Whats the problem? and how did you manage to get 6 gpus working?

4g Decoding enabled from the MB Bios ?

Hi guys, im reporting a little late, but i've been arround since the start of the thread(just created acc now, sorry).
I've managed to get 13,5 mh/s with bios mod on gigabyte rx 560 oc gaming 4gb, memory is micron.

Timings 1500 -> 1500 - 2000
Underclocked to 1050 mhz, memory is at 1850 mhz (i was able to get 2000 but wasnt stable at all, gonna try 1850+ with increments of 20-25mhz to see what happens)

I use 3 cards direct to MB and 1 riser, fans are at 45% in 2 of them(riser and bottom pci-e slot) 55% in the middle one and 50% upper pci-e, temps never get above 70~72ºc even in +32ºc ambient temp.

But the most incledible thing is thats only DRAWING 27~28W PER CARD, idk how tho lol.

Calculating this, it gives me an almost equal performance of 15 mh/s drawing 50-53w.

What you guys think?



How do you measure the watt drawing ? Note that most of the softwares are not that accurate. The best would be wattmetter on the wall

Thank mazq, but no luck

Tried every card alone - working,
change risers, slots, when  sixth (on any slot) has been removed everything is working.

Oh well ... I don't know what kind of sorcery is that
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: RX 560 4GB Ethereum on: July 17, 2017, 01:02:34 PM
Thanks for respond

tried GEN1 / GEN2 / Auto
Tried other  and with two PSU
Rebooting on windows startup
Before driver patch there are six cards in device list.

Well, out of guess what could be done. Make some test, check if you leave that 6th card alone - meaning start the pc with only this card and see if any issues. If I were you, I would flash the cards with their original bios, make DDU and install clean driver. After the installation of the driver, sign them with the patcher and flash again with your better performing bios. Sometimes there's no exact explanation of what's going on Smiley

Hi guys,

please help
Asrock h81 motherboard 6x Saphire rx560 4gb

bios mod:
1750 timings -> 1875, 2000

driver patched

5 cards working well (13,7). Plugging in sixth card windows resets on booting
Win10. Driver 17.xxx
Thanks

Make sure you change the Slots options to GEN1 in the BIOS of the MB. If you did that, probably the PSU you're using cannot feed all 6. Had similar problem and when separated 2 of the cards on dedicated (500W) PSU, everything worked fine. Try it, if you have spare PSU.

Cheers

I modded the bios successfully and increased the mining speed to ~14.xxx mh/s with the following settings:

bios mod:

1500 timings -> 1625, 2000


amd radeon settings:

gpu clock -> 1050 (underclock)
memory clock -> 2000
fan -> 67%

14,3 MH

What card and memory ?

Sapphire Pulse 2Gb with memory Hynix

And what setting allows you to mine on 2GB card?

Indeed, tha DAG is now 2.05 or smth. Thought 2 GB are out of the picture for ETH.

Hi all,
I managed to get 14,5-14,6 (card I have connected monitor to is 14,3, dont know if its normal) by myself by simply editing bios for Sapphire Rx560 OC 4GB. I guess only thing I can do better is better timing for micron memory (2100Mhz mem have same performace for me at 1625 and 1750 straps) and 1500 are not working for me 1800+ MHz.

So if anyone interested, i can give you BIOS which works for me

Sapphire Rx560 OC 4GB
1060/2100 (for me its working at 2200MHz) at 1750straps
typically 38-40W

For symbolic 0,001 ETH (I am kiddin, you can send me  but you dont haveto)   Smiley

Nice result, considering the power consumption. Did you touched the Power Limit or it's 0 ?

Cheers

Hi guys, under request i made a video proof of the 16 Mh/s bios mod:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyH5cagVA-E


The price is: 0.85 ETH

contact me to: personafiera@gmail.com
No need for video to trust you, I just need a bit lower price Smiley btw. Do you think you could do Hynix mod for MSI rx560, as the best I got is 13.1-2. If you could lower the price for the Sapphire, we have a deal Smiley

If you don't mind me asking; Where did you find mod for MSI rx560 Hynix in order to get 13.1-2, or did you mess around with settings yourself?

Unfortunately paid for it. The best i got myself was 12, even the bios i paid for it is not stable at 13.1-2 on all cards, still is something.

Hi everyone I bought 3 Sapphire RX560 Pulse OC boards,
I only managed in one of them to work 100% to bios @Priviet Roll Eyes the other 2 Sapphire RX560 Pulse OC none of the available bios @newsector and @Priviet give color screen after a few minutes. Angry

RX560 Pulse OC 6 pin standard is almost 12mh/s I do not understand, the boards are the identical why only in one of them took round for days to almost 15mh/s @Priviet and the others give the color screen.

I was looking to buy other RX560 Pulse OC 6 pin but now I do not know what I do. Huh

Are you sure all 3 use same memory?


According to GPU-Z Memory Type (Micron) of the 3 only 1 of them I can use memory clock in 2140MHz Grin  Status https://prnt.sc/fvj833 The three are Micron type.

Strange that in the other 2 if I put of 1750MHz for 2000 or until 1850MHz in 10 minutes it locks Undecided  the screen turns black sometimes it stays of another colors.  Sad

The 3 pieces came together sealed and new, strange the other 2 just pick up with the original Bios or by being at 1750MHz. Cry

How do you flash the bios ? provide the used command

Hi!

I don't want to buy bios mods and etc. I understand if somebody wants to sell the knowledge he/she got but now I would like to exchange the informations between us to see who got good result with different setting etc. in afterburner, or BIOS mod. That's all.

I cannot reach 12Mh/s I tried different Afterburner settings but the results are the same. Maybe a bit better, but the card termperature and etc are going up and the cards are not stable.

Is there somebody who has got a good afterburner settings which is "free" Smiley Or just BIOS modding can help to me?

 

What are the cards ?

Sapphire RX560 Pulse 6pcs

Go to page 4 or 5, there are 2 modded bioses for these cards. The first one is making 14,5 (not stable for me) and 1-2 posts below there is 13,5 mh/s which is stable and are here for free Smiley

Thank I tried it now. And It's worked Smiley I will check what happen after a day Smiley

Thanks!

Now with the new BIOS the rig is working well. 14.3 - 14.5 Mh/s / card - 60-65°C - FAN: 80-90%
24H test completed!

Thanks the good advise again

Glad to hear that. So you're using priviet's mode ? may I know what PSU you're using ?

Thanks

hi guys!

anyone tried priviet's mod bios with a hynix memory?...i got HIS RX560 4GB OC card...and its running only in stock 10Mh/s...

and also everything is disabled when i used afterburner... Embarrassed

please help me on this...thanks a lot

Change the AB version, worked for me. As for the bios, I tried Micron bios on Hynix and didn't end well.

Guys i finally reached the best configuration for RX 560 4gb Micron

https://i.imgur.com/Yap1kZP.jpg

16.1xx Mh/s with 58W Power draw


Stable from 4 days, Working on:

Sapphire RX 560 4gb NON OC, without 6 pin, Micron Memory

Price: 0.85 ETH
(included modded bios, oc config and fan config)

contact me: personafiera@gmail.com




Good to hear Brad that you made this happen. First time seeing some1 reporting 16mh/s, hence the price looks fair. Just one question, how does it happen to to buy these ? Asking as, yeah my cards are the same, but still there are other factors which also have to be taken into consideration and bios might not work on my machine. How do we check that ?

I made custom bioses for:

4GB micron 14.5 Mhs with ETH/ETC

Tested on Sapphire RX560 Pulse 4GB


And

4GB hynix 14.6 Mhs

Tested on Gigabyte RX560 Gamming 4GB



Both mods stable and running for days. I'm willing to sell those mods for 0.1 BTC each  if anyone interested.

p.s. Speed is with current epoch so 135... It was actually a little bit faster.

p.s.2 screenshots will come later

That's crazy prices.. we're still walking rx560 right ? Smiley As Branko said, good luck selling these.

If you reconsider your prices, pm me.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: RX 560 4GB Ethereum on: July 11, 2017, 01:52:23 PM


I get 15.500 MH/s after mod the bios with only ~45w power draw  Grin
Modele : Sapphire Pulse RX 560 4G (Mem = Micron)

(I'm mining DBIX but same as ETH)


Also 420H/s for XMR Mining

Great result. For how long the miner is running ? Also is it possible to share the bios ?

Cheers
For now 1h for dbix and stable also 2 day of XMR Mining and never under 420H/s, mem clock : 2200 GPU clock 1200
[/quote]

Good to hear that the cards are stable on that clock, as this is pretty high. So can you share the bios or you rather keep it for yourself Smiley
