If I have already flashed the vbios of my 580 and 570 cards, do I need to restore the stock bios before attempting the custom -straps in the command line?
Yes, good question, I'm wondering the same. I think no. This util just replace your bios timings (original or flashed) with eliots.

So, without disabling secure boot no chances to run with straps, right? It's not good...
Do you really need secure boot on your rigs? I could sign the driver, then some people will use my miner as malware, as always, then some AV will mark it as virus, then the certificate would be revoked... No way. I didn't need SB on all my rigs. But on some of them I work and SB can't be disabled on them... That's why I ask... You can make separate exe-utility for installing driver and sign them. Miner can use this tool for installing/uninstalling driver and even if miner will marked as virus, driver installed by separate tool with sign will not revoked! Just think about it, please. I'm sure that it can solve many questions in future. And another one question: you made memory straps by yourself? Or you take it from somewhere? Can you share this straps for us, so we just flash it on our bioses. Those who can't use driver? P.S. Some time ago zawawa (he maked GGS miner) can apply memory straps in his miner without any drivers on the fly... So it's exist a way to do it so... Zawawa was using a driver - phymem.sys ( https://github.com/zawawawa/GatelessGateSharp/tree/v1.3/phymem)

Mr. Claymore..Your Grace,
Your miner (v14.0) has magically increased my hashrate, lowered my temps, heat and noise on 3 rigs, a mix of Polaris and Pascal architecture...Significantly.
You are truly a gentleman, and a scholar. Thank you for all you do for the mining community.
With Respect,
-Courtesy F. Flush

Eliovp sold me his straps for my miner, I'm not going to disclose them, sorry. Zawawa's app is very similar to Eliovp's amd memory tweak app, i.e. it just changes memory registers, it does not apply entire straps. As soon as you try to copy entire strap to these registers, you will get BSOD. Except my miner, currently there is no software (at least public) that can apply entire straps on the fly. If I have already flashed the vbios of my 580 and 570 cards, do I need to restore the stock bios before attempting the custom -straps in the command line?
You can use your current bios. it seems -tt won't work on 19.4.3?
You are correct, AMD added another API update to manage fan. Again...

I uploaded a small update to fix issue with fan in latest AMD drivers. I did not change the version number. Please redownload v14.0 and check the log file, it must contain "b707" at the beginning which means latest build number.

2 Claymore Please, how to uninstall your driver and switch back windows from test to normal mode?
And about "paid straps from Eliovp" - I think everyone can examine them with Eliovp's tweak utility while your miner is running. Or are there some hidden gems?

1. Use "-driver uninstall" option with admin rights and reboot. Check Readme for details. 2. Registers contain only part of original strap, some values are modified.

I'll try new version just for fun (currently on Phoenix), but to really convince me to switch back to Claymore, add option to dual/triple mine ZIL

I still think it's not a good idea to waste kernel certificate. Oh Claymore i allive again  Good, very good. Keep up your good job  Thanks  good lord, Claymore, I have rx480 8 gb samsung, using latest 14th ver and reaching only 28.8mh/s, any help to see those 33mh/s?
I use "-strap 1@2250" or even "-strap 3@2250" for these cards, read Readme for more details.

I didn't get a chance to read the entire thread but was anyone here successful in getting Claymore miner to work with the RX 470 on Windows 7?
The issue I have is most of my rigs have old and slow single core processors, so running Win 10 is very slow. Especially when you need to reboot because it usually ends up hanging, rather stick to Win 7.
However the AMD drivers don't have the compute mode option for RX series cards on Windows 7. Wondering if this new version of Claymore will fix this issue.
The memory straps are not an issue and they are already modified but without the blockchain driver it runs at 15Mhs when it should run at 28Mhs.

I was on my way to testing v14 but first had to move my driver to 19.4.3. When I moved, I then restarted v12 just to make sure everything was still working. It turns out, I lost fan control under 19.4.3 and v12. So I've reverted my driver and have gone back to v12 for now.
I'm sure the fan stuff probably works in v14 with the newer driver but I don't have time to fight with it now. Maybe over the weekend.
EDIT: Re-read posts and see that AMD keeps changing the fan API out from under you. I'm back on v12 but will make a run at v14 later. Thanks for the work on dynamic strapping.
