Both batches sold out now supposedly, Maybe Ill just pay for one and take my chances lol. Well check the news later in the day lol

Will Electroneum also change their Algo? Seems like theres 6 coins that are currently more profitable to mine based on https://minecryptonight.net/

I have 2 purcahsed I can USD wire for tmmrw for but am hella nervous lol

Listen to me right now.. You're about to throw away a huge sum of money to feed Chinese scammers. DO NOT BUY THESE!!!!

No coin besides Monero could absorb the power of these ASICs. They're as good as dead if they don't switch. They just need Monero to do it first since most devs are too dumb.

You've been warned.

batch one is sold out! I sold 4x A3s for 6K when they first dropped and kept one and got my ROI, so idk might be a good investment to flip at least if not mine other coins then XMR?

*EDITmaybe just to flip lol

I would clean drivers and start fresh make sure there are no driver leftovers.
Try with the late august beta blockchain driver.
No need to set compute for it.



Well multiple drivers & 2 full clean windows reinstalls later Im totally convinced i got screwed with these cards... The Aug 23 driver i cool because it lets me use afterburner but i am still getting the 550-600H/s with XMR on stock bios with OC from AB. With straps changed i can push it only to 650H/s, Oh and somehow over these last two nights of messing with it ive destoryed the 1st PCIe slot on the mobo...

Ive played with the mobo bios settings tried gen 1 & 2.  Tried latency at 32 and 96... Ive increased the virtual memory. Obv set to 4g encoding for mining. Ive tried everything I can think of. Hopefully some gamer will want these cards and I can just go buy more 1070 ti's lol but fml

Im gonna try using a new mobo to see if i really burnt the first slot somehow, i have a few new ones in stock(MSI Z270A) but if anyone has any last tips for me before i truley give these cards up Im all ears lol

VRAM usage is never fully in use like on my 1070ti rigs.. ive seen it at 7% and 45% and Im not sure what that means or if some setting is causeing the blockage, is there something im missing? Is Radeon Settings blocking usage? Should I not instal it with the drivers? Im going crazy lol

I was messing with different drivers all last night. MSI afterburner had all the settings greyed out and I couldn't use it so I started using TRIXX.

At some point with one of the drivers last night it allowed me to use afterburner again but it wasn't doing anything different then TRIXX.

Today the driver was freexing and giving me issues so I'm back on Crimson 81.1.1 and MSI AB is greyed out again and useless, but these numbers are with those same core & mem settings you just said as I saw a lot of people using those clocks and I'm using TRIXX

I also use ASUS GPU tweak as a monitor, and VRAM usage is only 45% which is strange I'm not sure what is stopping the cards from running at max speed.

Can you show a pic how it look in Polaris editor? Open a fresh bios file without any changes.
Top right should have a drop down which shows memory types. By this you can figure which strap lines to edit for that memory. It is possible bios has 1 mem type. Although rare but possible. Other have 3 mem types like mine 570s. Etc.
Get the very latest polaris editor  github.com/jaschaknack.

Best bios is your bios Smiley

For elpida this should work . For above 1500 straps use below. no need to change anything else except use the strap on mem slots 1500 and above.

777000000000000022AA1C00315A5436A0550F15B68C1506004082007C041420CA8980A9020004C 01712262B612B3715


For over clock try initially core 1150  mem 1950 from Windows tool like msi afterburner or other.

I'm not sure how to post a picture on this forum.. But if you mean the drop box on the VRAM box it says - EDW4032BAB - and there is only the one listed there

I downloaded a different version of Polaris and now it shows 0:200 - 0:2000 as the MHz timing numbers

I copied the straps on everything 1500 and above but I'm still only getting 650H/s for XMR and 13MH/s for ETH
(unstrapped cards are doing 530-550H/s with XMR , on the cards I flashed I'm getting 595-650H/s it jumps back and fourth every few seconds) Wish it would stay on the 1.2KH/s is shows when I first start the cards lol


@maverik77 - I cant PM you my email because of your setting and I have a noob account Sad

Did you mod the bios on the 580s for starters? Elpida memory is not the greatest but you should be able to queeze 26-27 mh with proper setup +driver.
Forget the baseline without mod. Try it out on 1 card

Very first may be try the beta driver from August or the latest one and  set to compute mode.

I followed a tutorial on youtube but I'm supposed to have two sets on timings in Polaris... I only have one and theres no :'s - I didn't get any increased anything, can you link me to a bios that I can use? Ill continue looking in the meanwhile

My driver is currently 18.1.1 Crimson all set to computing mode in AMD settings

EDIT: MODDED BIOS but only got to 13.5MH/s ETH and 650H/s XMR and its really jumping back and fourth from 12-13.5 or 600-650

Well I fixed my GTX 1070ti's... But I'm still getting a terrible hashrate on my AMD RX580's ...

What am I doing wrong guys is 12MH/s all they put out now? Everywhere I read people are getting between 20-30MH/s Sad

I have made 6x 1070ti rigs they all pump out 190MH/s @1000 watts , From what I read these should pump out a similar hashrate just at a higher wattage, but even when running just 3 cards I get the same hashrate!

I want to flash the bios on the GPUs but if I'm not even getting the base hashrate of 20MH/s most people say theyre getting stock then I must be missing something else entirely but I'm not sure what...

also just under 600H/s for XMR will moding the bios get me to 8-900? Exact model is ASUS-DUAL-RX580-04G (Elpida) Memory

Now I see... They were flawless untill this morning.. (My Nivida Rigs)Were going a steady 30-32MH/s now it runs for a few minutes and i get BSOD. FML
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Modified GPU BIOS for Mining on: January 22, 2018, 06:54:51 PM
But my Nividia cards work fine? lol its these AMD cards i cant figure out! Is it a power issue? When they start up they show a good Hashrate for seconds but level out to 12MH/s once they get working(Now using Trixx thats my max setting)...


What is my workaround for this if not a power issue?
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Modified GPU BIOS for Mining on: January 22, 2018, 04:53:56 AM
There are no RX cards left.  Cry

Anybody know how to mod a gforce?? Looks like I've got my choice of 1030, 1050, 1060, 1070 or 1080.  Cry Cry Cry

Anybody?






Do I Have the last ones? Lol This is my first mining rig build with AMD cards and im not having fun If anyone could help it would be most appreciated Sad im only getting between 10-12MH/s and thats after doing everything i could figure out.. Stock was running 9MH/s this is my build

Windows 10
6x ASUS-DUAL-RX580-04G (Elpida) (Radeon RX 580 Series)
Intel Celeron Processor 2.80GHz
MSI Z270A Mobo
Crucial 4GB RAM
Drevo 64GB SSD
Corsair Platinum 1000w PSU

MSI after burner is greyed out, so Ive maxed out all the settings I could in the ASUS GPU tweak and aso the AMD wattman settings. I installed the newest AMD drivers and also tried with the Crimson/Mining drivers they have available. Am I missing something simple? Most people i see getting over 20MH/s stock so im not sure whats wrong.

Im not sure how to change the bios on the GPUs if thats actually needed.. Ive set up 6x 1070 ti Rigs and have never done that and they were so easy to get 30+MH/s out of them..

Any help would be appreciated id be willing to pay someone to guide me through what i need to do
