Review: Custom ROM from Eliovp - RX480 Nitro+ 8GB (Samsung Memory) XMR ~850h/s

[xxcsu]

Are you sure your 6 sapphire rx 480 nitro+ 8gb cards all have the same bios version
Did you checked the bios version for each cards before you flashed the modded bios ?
Did you modded your own bioses?
Did you modded one bios and flashed to all of your cards ?
Those sapphire rx 480 nitro+ 8gb cards have a different bios version:
113-2E3470U-S5X ,
113-2E3470U.X4L ,
113-2E3470U.X51 ,
113-2E3472U.053 ,
113-2E3470U.O5Y ,
113-2E3470U.X5W ,
113-2E3472U.O5V,
113-2E3470U.S5S
... and a few more

This bios files are not interchangeable. If you are flashing a card with another bios version , your card might going to work , but can be very unstable during mining or gaming. ( reboots / blue screen / open cl hangs /driver fail errors  ... )

shit yes i did
i took the original bios from 1 card , modded it and put it in the other cards... i know i have a switch to go back to original bios but it could be that i accidently reflashed the original as well... not for all cards but how can i be sure?

if i modded my card , can i see in any way what the original bios was ?

what would u suggest? ( thx for the great tip , did not thaugt it could harm modding 1 rom and copy to all the rest

Im not saying this is the problem you are dealing with , but its worth a try

Use that " V bios switch " on your nitro's. Make sure you reset any tune you done on your cards with software (watttman , watttool , afterburnen )
Boot your computer up with only one nitro connected , after boot , just in case restart the pc ...
Use atiflash to check the bios version. Load your modded bios with atiflash and compare the 2 bios version . If both the same , you are good Just close atiflash dont hit "program" button.  If you see  different bios numbers u should restore your original bios...

(do this process with all six cards one by one)

thx for the help ! i will try that tomorrow ( i dont have the rig with me now ). But my only problem i could be facing now is that i have flashed over the original rom on some cards on both BIOS ... i know for modding its best to set the v switch towards the hdmi ports , so you could always go back to original by just setting v switch back again.  but what if my original bios is overwritten as well? then in atiflash my bios version will also show the wrong version ?

If u flashed ur  cards two bioses , then the atiflash not going to read the original bios version number
dont be panic , your problem might be something else... i hope.

I have a lot of original bios versions for those nitro+ cards , if you get ur new mobo , and the problem still exist after a fresh windows install , you can send me ur cards serial number and i can try match those numbers with my cards serial numbers , and send some bios files for you from those card what serial numbers close to urs . You might have to try a few ...

That's great men! I love the spirit around Monero, everybody helps eachother out. Love it! Tomorrow or beginning of next week I have the Mobo. And I will start figuring out what cards still have there original BIOS. I will do that by looking at each card 1 by one, starting​ to compete in atitflash and then do some basic test. I will set the memory of the original ( or what I think is original ) BIOS to 2100 instead of 2000... This in my opinion should run stable because no timings or what so ever are changed... No undervolting... If this is not running stable I will try one of your other original BIOS and do same test again and have a look if it's ok...

You think this is the good way to go?

I know but I already started a topic about this some days ago and did get response but nobody mentioned that it is wrong to modify a BIOS and copy to all other cards...

Hello!
Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 480 8G D5 8.0 GB OC 11260-07-20G
 mod for this card?
I can not get one card

[Rewqpro]

what is extraordinary about 850h/s 

just default straps from 1750 do the same.

I've managed to have 950 h/s with samsung memory though, 8-gpu rig, 1.3 kWh

Look at the post date , Elio roms now breaking 1000 h/s easily .

[slim87]

and where to get that ROM ( I was a early buyer from Eliovp and would be intrested to get that 1000h/s as well)?
