Yes ... i know the GTX 1060 6GB if you can find them for a reasonable price still reigns supreme; but short of those... this episode aims at a few builds.

Hi I have a mining rig with 6*rx580 red devil 8gb on SMOS but I am having low hash rate on claymore 10 for ETH on average 20.5 mh/s per card. what overclock settings can improve my hash rate?? thanx

You need to flash your bios if you haven't. I had a 580 go from 20 to 25 with just that.

I havent flashed the bios and I guess thats the main issue. But I dont know how to do it on SMOS. Should I install windows first mod the bios and switch to SMOS??
thanks

Modifying and flashing the Bios from Linux is definitely not for the faint or new to doing so. On Windows the only tools you need are Polaris Bios Editor and Atiflash. Also the pixel patcher with RX 470/480/570 cards to bypass the driver signature check in Windows or you will have a code 43 error in Device Manager. You don't need the patch if you run the cards under Linux.

For the PBE 'one click timing patch' Bios mod I get the best results with Polaris Bios Editor v1.6.2. It automatically detects each memory type and adjusts the 1750 MHz and up straps with the bundled performance straps. PBE 1.6.1 adjusts from the 2000 MHz and up straps. PBE v1.6.3 and up adjusts the straps from 1500 MHz and up, but the 1750 MHz straps are more stable.
