RX 560 4GB Ethereum

[yilcom]

Hi, guys!
I have Gigabyte GV-RX560 GAMING OC-4GD (Hynix(((), without overclocking I have 10.6 Mh/s.
Overclocking memory to 2000, brings an insignificant result. I have over9000 times tried to flash BIOS with different timings, but without success. Once I saw 16 Mh/s, but the driver left at once.
Substituting timings from Micron got 14 Mh/s at 2000 memory frequency it seems kind of stable, but HWinfo shows a lot of memory errors.
The best that could be achieved is 12.9 Mh/s and the overclocking of the memory of 1850 (with a small number of errors). I did not see in this topic that someone paid attention to memory errors. The question is: why does no one monitor errors? P.S.: GPU8 is 1050Ti. P.P.S: Sorry for my french.

Try to downclock core clock to 1050 - 1059. You will see higher rate and a little bit lower power comsumption

Thank you! When I try, I'll write about the result.

Hi Siberian and other guys, I am new to mining with 4 x Msi Rx560 aero itx and 4 x GB rx560 oc with dual fan and 6pin power. Unfortunately my 8 cards have hynix memory too. And it's a big disappointing to me. I am not an expert of editing memory or straps or whatever they are called. I am reading these topics and other forums related to these and other tweaking bios forums. But I can say that I couldn't make it like what others say.

About Gigabyte rx560 Hynix;  I can make only 13.2 mh/s - 13.6 mh/s (dual mode eth+dcr) but can't go up. I'll give the gigabyte bios here maybe you can edit or try or make to go it better. What I did is I just copied and pasted Msi 1750mhz timing straps to gigabyte 1750 to 2250, then set max memory speed to 2250. From 1625 to 2250 didn't work for me.(That's very interesting that dual mode is faster then single mod for me i tried too many -dcri values but i can make single mod faster than dual mod only claymore 9.6 version This is another topic to talk about)

This is msi bios 1750 mhz strap: 999000000000000022559D0031627C4990551313BC0D060C004C04017D0714204A8900A00200312019123138C02D3D17
And this is gb 1750 mhz strap:   999000000000000022559D0031627C4990551313BC0D060C004C04017D0714204A8900A00200000019123138C02D3D17   I make the font bold for you to see the difference. I checked it with strap editor and it's caused by the SEQ_MISC_8 (32Bit) setting is "2" for Gigabyte and "20310002" for Msi. When I copy msi value to gigabyte i can make it to go from 12 mh/s to 13.5 mh/s with this "-dcri 26 -tt 80 -fanmin 55 -fanmax 95 -mclock 2200 -mvddc 975 -cclock 1200 -cvddc 900 -powlim -15" claymore commands.


About MSI rx560 aero itx hynix memory; I can't make it to go over 12.1 mh/s. I just copied 1500, 1625, 1750 to 2000 or 2250 and tried max memory 2250 mhz or 2000 mhz or 2100. Tried several times but no luck. I just don't understand how people can make over 14 mh/s with this hynix memory. If I can make msi like gigabyte that will be ok for me.

Hope you can make it to go better. It's a very bad mining start to me with those crazy hynix memories. I'm really jealous of those people who can make 15 - 16 mhs with micron memories  

Go to hell hynix

Yes, its already covered in claymore 9.8 main thread, only wattman works for my micron Gigabyte that gives 15.7 MH/s stable
I usually OC from claymore directly instead using afterburner/trixx, but that totally doesn't work in claymore 9.7 and works
erratically in claymore 9.8

I solved my problem with the ASUS Mainboard. I just needed to update the BIOS and the enable above 4g decoding

did you guys got anything higher than 15.7 Mh/s??
I was playing with my cards to get them over 14Mh/s. i got sapphire rx560 4gb with micron.
I cant remember what exactly i have changes, but i got one (the one i was playing with) to mine with 18.xxx Mh/s. But the machine crashed after 2min.
I restarted it and played with the settings again (lower memory and core) but it didnt help. Still at 18.xxx but crashes after some seconds.
So i let it rest and tried smt else.

Now i am mining with 13.5x stable.
I read someone got the with 15.xx and posted his rom. Gonna check it out later.

I will try to find the rom that got 18.xxx and post it here. Maybe someone can get it stable?

just wanted to share my experience

For 18MH/s you'd gave to overclock memory to at least 2600MHz...is that even possible?

Reducing the core frequency to 1050 has really slightly increased the Hash rate, now with a memory frequency of 1900 I have 13.5 Mh/s, with practically no memory errors, more has not yet been achieved. Thank you! The BIOS inserts values from the GPU with Micron memory https://cloud.mail.ru/public/ERgR/GpdGBMexD.

get back initial strap 1500 timing. after that you will be able to increase memory speed more than 2000+

So, I paid for (.3 ETH) the modified 560 bios that minerscott posted here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2024062.msg%msg_id%

He assured me that it would work for my XFX single fan 560 (hynix). I repeated the same steps I've used multiple times with other cards - and his supplied bios file rendered the GPU inoperable (in both Windows and EthOS). He assured me that I just needed to try again, which I did, with the same result. It ended up being a lot of frustration just trying to get the cards working again.

He was very nice (we've got probably 20x emails back and forth), and gave me a different bios to try, which also failed. He then went unresponsive and it has been a week since he has emailed me. I'm out the ETH and have my GPU's plodding along at roughly 12/Mh, thanks to a free bios somebody posted elsewhere. If anybody has a link to better version I'd love to have it.

I'm not going to rule out that life simply got in the way, so if you're reading this Scott, I'm happy to listen to an explanation and will take this down if you can either supply a working bios or refund my payment. This is basically my only option at this point.

Not looking for sympathy - I clearly should have invested the time into figuring this out myself. Looked for an easy way out and paid for it.  Won't be paying for bios files anymore.

Experinced the very same situation with that guy. Extremly polite at the begining, then it turned out that the bios is crappy and he disaaperared. Gave him a chance to reply for a long period, but nothing, so don't buy anything from him.

Much appreciated for sharing!

Was your card with the 6pin or without? Your mod was the first to actually give my MSI Aero ITX (Hynix with no 6pin) a solid boost. All the others I've tried seemed to just bump me up around 1Mh/s or actually drop my hash rate. With your mod I went from ~10.9 to ~14.3.

BUT it soon crashes afterwards, so just unsure if I need to try and feed it more power limit, or try and drop the mem clock a bit... Or totally avoid trying to use your bios (hopefully not haha).

What I took from your bios was copying 1500 strap upwards, and copying your max mem freq of 2250. The rest of our #s seemed to line up.

In my quick troubleshooting so far I had tried bumping power limit to 20%, and then 50%, and then max 75%, but all still result in crashing. And since those attempts failed, I'm assuming that means you have the 6pin power

So certainly not looking for you troubleshoot, but if you had any suggestions for my course of action I'd be extra thankful. Really not skilled with modding the bios besides copy/paste, so even just hearing a simple "it wont work regardless" would be beneficial.

Anyways, thanks again for sharing!

run it and start your mining with low clock (1900MHz or something) and track memory errors in hwinfo
raise your frequency until errors show up
congratulations, you found max safe clock that won't crash your card

Thanks a bunch and much appreciated for setting me in the right direction Branko! Will start testing things out with it. Besides messing with the power limit I had only tried dropping the mem clock back down to 2000 (and it crashed), so I know that #s not safe at least haha.

And sorry I hadn't broken down asking for your services/bios yet Just really been unsure if I'll keep the card, or throw it back on ebay for small profit. Had gotten lucky few weeks ago grabbing the card (supposedly) brand new extra cheap by finding one of those terribly titled auctions that nobody views. So bought mainly with the intentions to use as a small extra bump hold-over card until I saw if the rest of the card prices started to drop/supplies returned.
