First time BIOS modding here, and I seem to be hitting the same hashrate limitation of 25 Mh/s that others are reporting.
I'm also *relatively* new to mining (about a month in on the learning process), so I'd appreciate some input!
My questions:
• Is this DAG epoch driver fix still relevant? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2068446.0
• Is the beta blockchain workload driver still relevant, or will the standard drivers do the job now?
• Shouldn't I be able to get at least 28Mh/s Ethash with Samsung memory? Possible driver or batch issue?
• Should I be reducing the core clock from the stock OC'd value as I've done?
• Why would I see no change to hashrate from my non-OC to with-OC settings?!
My hardware:
MSI RX 570 Gaming
4GB Samsung Memory
BIOS Modded with PBE 1.6.6 One-Click
Stock Settings 1281MHz Core / 1750MHz Memory
OC Settings -200mV, 1100MHz Core / 2000MHz Memory
Using MSI Afterburner 4.4.0
Windows 10 x64
I was getting 300+ H/s on Equihash and Ethash was below 21 Mh/s (not sure what driver at the time, but with OC settings).
Currently running blockchain driver from Crimson, v17.30.1029 (22.19.659.0), and I'm seeing 25 MH/s Ethash both WITH and WITHOUT my OC settings applied.
Here are my benchmark results from MultiPoolMiner:
