I tried modding my own with the elpida version of Polaris Bios editor but i couldn't get stable hashing at 29+ and barely at 27, if even. May just sell the card if I can't find a better bios. In the new bios editor it shows 2 lists of values.. Like:
1:1500
1:1625
etc
then it shows
2: 1500
2:1625
etc

I copied the 1:1500 to the higher 1:x values and then I copied the 2:1500 to the higher 2:x values. Did i do this right?

If anyone has a good bios for this or will modify my original bios for me, I'd appreciate it: http://www.filedropper.com/sapphire480nitroelpidaoriginal

Yes, you did it right.
You should get around 28mh with the 1500 elpida strap.
There is also a slightly better elpida strap published in this forum not long ago. Search for it Smiley

I have the same card with fairly underwhelming results as well after modding. I think it's likely the card, but let me know if you find something different?

With ETH dual mining, I'm generally around 23-24 mh/s with this card. So I don't think you want my bios. The non + card is significantly worse vs the + card
