RX 560 4GB Ethereum

[aspirinex]

hi ı need help.ı have a gigabyte rx560 4gb hynix card.I modded the cards. but when you run it with Afterburner the computer turns off or error the global wattman. timing 1500> 2250. afterburner o.c. gpu: 1200; memory 1850; core voltage: -15
 what I do wrong. eth 12,500 mh/s. and it's not stable. I did not find a timig mode. please help me.

Also note, I would forget about AB for clock settings and voltage settings. use the command line options that come with claymore. I find if I use AB that once in a while it gets all screwed up and puts my memory clock a lot higher then it should be and crashes my system, but if I use the -cclock -mclock settings in Claymore they were ok no weird glitches. My settings for my 560's with microm memory are as follows   -cclock 1175 -mclock 1950 -cvddc 900 -mvddc 950

If my 560's had hynix memory I would go with 2050 for memory clocks but they have micron which is not as good as Hynix.  I am getting 13.3-13.5 per card  Ethash and 30-33 Lbr

I would like to mention I am currently not mining Ethereum as I dont feel like upgrading my rigs to windows 10 and the block chain driver + Claymore do not work under windows 7. So for me it was easier to mine Ethash coin that was on a lower DAG like Musicoin or Expanse.

Funny, my micron is ticking happily at 2240MHz and 15.8MH/s

I have 4 Asus Rog 560 4GB cards with micron, if I set any of them to 2000+ after a few minutes they crash the Radeon drivers then the system
I regret getting them, they were cheap and easily available at $160cdn. But My 570's and 580's perform so much better just hard to come by these days.

Also note I have tried leaving memory voltage at defaults and reducing with clocks at 2000 or higher and still get the same result, a crashed driver in the end

Some cards are just better then others even those of the same brand, it can be the luck of the draw. 3 of my 560s do 13.4 - 13.6 while the 4th with the same settings only get 12.9

Bad straps? I have same card, Gigabyte with 2 fans and additional power connector, two are micron, two are hynix.

Gigabyte is cheating and put 6GHz memory factory overclocked to 7GHz on hynix based cards,
 while Micron ones got real 7GHz parts, hence better OC and hashing

I have tried the 1750 copy method for Micron
Factory Straps
and the one click optimal in polaris 1.6
Result if I clock 2000+ is the same a driver crash

My Asus RoG cards have one fan each and no addition power connector.

Are your 560's factory overclocks with increased voltage? sounds like it if they have dual fans and a power connector

Gigabyte micron (disregard gpu speed and power consumption, this was just chasing the record ):

Try lowering memory voltage to 850mV, memory actually spends lots of power on low end cards, and can cause problems
in cards with no power connector

I will try 850 this evening see what I get.

I just had sort of an epiphany. I am mining Expanse and music coin currently with very low DAG's mid 30's (I am mining these as Block Chain official + Claymore doesnt work in windows 7 and all my rigs have windows 7) Also these coins currently are more profitable.  Anyways I thought I would check online to see what 2GB 560's cost as those would work with these coins for close to another year. 4GB 560's here cost me close to $170cdn($145usd) However I can pick up @GB 560's OC'd daul fan models for $135cdn(108usd) and mine Music or Expanse, the ROI on them should be half decent if the value of these coins holds up. I am not sure what to do here. I would prefer 570s and 580s but the are super hard to come by and cost way to much now.

I'm even planing to check how rx550 2GBs work with ecpanse (mining that instead ETH, too)...only problem I live in small town in 3rd world country so even those are hard to find at decent prices

Epoch 95 will be the last DAG 2GB cards can mine, I believe the current DAG is 35 for Music not sure what Expanse is currently at

[SummersideGuy]

I believe every epoch is 30,000 blocks and it takes 14-15s to solve a block, So that is a new Epoch every 4.8 - 4.9 days. 60 epochs left till DAG 95. Therefore Musicoin should be mineable on 2GB cards for another 291 to 312 days

24...it will take forever to get to 2GB

[DarrenJC]

Ive got an old PC box (Pentium, socket 775, 1GB ram, 200gb HD)

Buying a new PSU, 600/700watt and 3 RX 560 cards... leave it in the garage plodding away? not bad for the price me thinks with a few clock tweaks

[SummersideGuy]

ok lowered clocks to 850 but when I pushed 2000 and up locked up rig solid
Also just checked Music is at DAG 35

Ive put the mvddc to 850 for the 560's and I am testing out 2050 now to see if it is stable. will know better in 24 hour if it makes it that far, have cclock at 1150 and cvddc at 900 currently with dcri 20 I am getting 14.2 per card ethash and 32 per card lbr

Update: well that didnt last long card #4 crashed at 2050 memory clock

Well, your comment about bad micron and at same time much cooler outside temperature than during august made me try to push micron a bit further:

(accidentaly pushed ctrl+ break instead ctrl + printscreen, so real frequency was 2300, not 300 )

not much gain over 2230, interesting...one bad thing with micron is that it demands about 1200MHz core to go over 16MH/s

So about 15.8MH/s seems like a sweet spot

[SummersideGuy]

Best I can achieve is 13.8 with my cards. As I said before it is luck of the draw. Maybe perhaps it is due to their being lower powered then your cards as I do not have supplementary power on them.
