[GUIDE][TUTORIAL][XMR,ETH]How To Mod Bios RX470/570/480/580 VEGA Mining 💰⛏

[Mattthev]

@Both of the previous replies,

wow that was dumb, i think i just kinda forgot about it and i redid everything and all worked out.

Running a solid 168 MH/s with 6 cards on 875Watts.

I do have a question tho, is there much of a different between power saving mode or OC/Undervolt mode in the PBE 2.1?

I kinda don't want to do all my cards again right now that i got everything working just to find out it doesn't change much

So that's 28MH/s per card. I get the same with free timings, aren't your timings supposed to give better hashrate?

Depends on card, memory type, quality, OC, miner, etc.

What? Price is 30 USD.
This is not support thread for the store!

Seems like I need more testers for performance timings. Looking for every memory types. You have to know how to use PBE or SRB and tweak cards for best hashrate.

Hi,

First time using the PBE, attempting to flash an RX 480 4G with Hynix VRAM, it was doing 22 MH/s stock with compute mode,

I flashed it using the one click button BIOS and it was then doing 17 MH/s, but after restart the BIOS was also no longer detected by AMD settings, I was trying to check if it was in compute mode at 17MH/s.. but even GPUZ had trouble identifying the card, ATI Flash simply labeled it has "Polaris", I reverted back to stock BIOS after that, but I really think 22 MH/s is low for a 480, any suggestions? Also, when I use afterburner I cannot do anything above stock or the hashrate falls, this indicates VRAM errors correct?

I did a clean install and installed the pixel clock etc etc, what am I doing wrong here? What specific order do I need to everything in just to be sure I am not screwing it up?

Thanks!

Hello, this concerning 2 rx550 cards by Sapphire. I got the newest Polaris editor, as well as ATIflash and the patcher program.

Did the first card, using only one click tuning. Rebooted, ran the patcher, card is fine.

2nd card did not do so well. It reported no problems, but now comes up as standard VGA adapter, even with the driver installed. I cannot reflash the original BIOS on it b/c ATIflash does not detect it.

What can i do with this?

Flash it in safe mode.

Thank you Matththev for useful thread, I'm a newbie in mining world, have just bought 6 cards FXF RX470 8G. Still don't know how to control fan speed? The seller had set up it's speed always be 100%, but all temperature just only 40~60°C. 

[jakkwb]

matthev, the atiwinflash program will not run in safe mode, it tells me "due to Microsoft Win7 Enhanced security features, this application requires the user to be in administrator mode..."

Which I am doing by right-clicking and running as admin in safe mode.

This is Win7pro 64bit.

If you want mine for same card with same hashrates I have no problem to share, you can thank me later with some coins

Check that you may have to run pixelpatcher again. I sometimes find that the ATI driver has decided to update itself (even if I tell it not to) which disables the pixelpatcher fix causing the GPU to run in low-res only.

[jakkwb]

Ran the pixelpatcher again, rebooted. No change, 2nd card still shows as standard VGA adapter with a code 10 error.

You disabled shapeshift integration, i wanna bout the pbe pack but i dont really have BTC right now or LTC anything i can do?

Faulty riser?

Flash stock bios
DDU
Reinstall newest adrenalin driver
Flash strapped bios

[jakkwb]

Not on a riser yet...How can I re-flash stock BIOS when ATIwinflash does not even detect it?

[Bigdrago]

Do the card have a bios switch?

[skablast]

I don't think they have.
What's the purpose of having it for Sapphire ie ?

If bios fail, switch to bios2, start windows, switch to bios1 while in windows. Now the card is recognized and u can flash bios1.

[jakkwb]

No BIOS switch on this as far as I can tell.
