question.. so i flashed my sapphire rx 480 ref 8gb with the 32MH/s bios. and a few weird things happened. suddenly the claymore dual mined detects it as a 4gb card.in addition i see max 30 MH/s and it is quite unstable. look for GPU0 for the results, the other cards are different cards. any1 know what might be the issue? http://  The bios you flashed was a 4GB bios. Open it in Polarisbioseditor and change it to 8GB, save it and reflash your card. thanks for the reply. so i tried that, flashed successfully and it was indeed then detected as 8gb card. funny thing is that Hash rate became even worse. it avaraged then about 27MH/s and even dropped to 22 a few times.. im now completely confused for what could have caused this.. is it possible the card has some problem? Not sure what bios you got. The best thing to do is to do the mod yourself on a backup of your original bios. im am not the most experienced one with modding bioses thus im a bit afraid to do it myself. i got all the heliox bioses not from here (because they are down) but from some russian forum, ofcourse i cannot be 100% sure that they are the same but i hope so.. and i then used the 32MH/s bios(31.8MH/s) perhaps you could share the original bioses from heliox? I can upload my bios i have in all my reference 480 8GB cards when i get home later. That bios make my cards do solid 30.5Mhs @ ETH please do, i would highly appreciate it, perhaps mine are faulty in some way or another..

Hello, guys...
One quck question: is there ROM available for RX 480 4GB Sapphire Nitro (non ref).
I tried manually changing memory straps, but when i open bios in Polaris Bios editor, there are no such timings as 1500, 1750 etc...
Any recommendations?
Thanks

Apparently no one took the time to try to mod one of these as they are less popular than their 8 GB cousins. I have a few 4Gb and I'm happy with their performance but wouldn't mind to try one modded BIOS just for the fun of it

Thanks for your reply.
I have four of these, and they only give me about ~ 90 H/r on ETH.
What results do you get?
Cheers

I undervolt and underclock to save power and have less noisy rigs.
Each of my rigs, 6x480 4G, is mining ETH at ~130 MHs

Greetings That would be highly appreciated  Here, Sapphire 480 4G, basic changes. I didn't change clocks or voltage settings. Use atflash without the -f flag. In other words, DO NOT FORCE THIS rom on your GPU, also if atiflash complains that the device ID is not the same, DO NOT FLASH. You can use this on both Hynix and Elpida. Link: Here"All the older files are still available, just change the " http://www.mininghwcomparison.com" part to " http://62.212.74.86/~mining/". Greetings
