So, i had to downclock my cards to 2000 on memory as it was unstable. Looks like your settings don't really help, only about a 10h/s increase on each card 😐 I have gigabyte 4gb rx 560s. Any ideas?

Which miner you are using and what is your config file? Also, do you know how many compute units your card has? You can obtain compute unit values by running Claymore cryptonight miner. It shows compute unit number at the start.

I built my first Cryptonight rig a few months back using Sapphire Pulse RX 570 and was able to get 915 h/s @ 95 watt on the wall. Due to high prices and unavailability of RX 570s, I decided to give RX 560s a shot. I am glad to mention that I am able to obtain 515 h/s @ 40 watt on the wall for AMD RX 560 while mining Electroneum/Sumokoin (will be true for all Cryptonight coins e.g., Monero, Karbo). You can see the proof of hashrate and clock settings at this link: https://imgur.com/a/q1iKkI am using sgminer-gm 5.5 with rawintensity 416 and worksize 8. The trick was to use 2 gpu threads in the config file as follows: "rawintensity": "416", "worksize": "8", "gpu-threads": "2" My GPU is Asus OC 2gb Polaris 14nm 1210 Ghz core and 1750 Mhz memory clock. It uses Elpida DDR5 memory. Its bios is modified using Polaris 1.6.6 editor's one click patch option and that was pretty much it. (I tried Sapphire RX Pulse 4gb version but could not get it above 410 h/s). I tried Crimson Beta 17.30 Blockchain driver but it kept on crashing. Finally managed to make Crimson relive 17.7 work. If you find the above post useful, please consider donating to following addresses: BTC: 3CW1WbDDtjfWprc7K4VQpNtJP7jsJMTbGF ETH: 0x134e57a0902eAb8019aE0dd7bC80cFd75B4b55f0 Sumokoin: Sumoo3NqEtVixhMfApYUzDa6AmomPypQ5AkHeMgfqTzG7G3nyQw5kbPSw9m69fKFJADMaVbnAkhpv86 kdK2haPRdgV5k1A3LJYi Electroneum: etnk4mvPSG49h6Hw4xgaQrTbjQyJ4fnUh6F6jFVM6xpAfrJtswC6AaiJepPCWF1PSNj4xiMXc8QXU7G cfFZvpUi422Z9F82eth Digibyte: DBtUYVhUrAXuDjjmAzNNWpcMWe6tJvWoEP Wow - very eerie to see the exact same numbers that I came up with for my 2GB XFX RX 560's so I gave you your first merit! How did you arrive at the rawIntensity number? I found a few bits of advice from one of the SGMiner-GM devs - OhGodAGirl - in several threads: The formula for rawintensity is #(CUs) x worksize x 4 - so, for a 280x, you'd have 32 x 4 x 4. That gives us 512. Worksize of 8 can be used, but make sure to change gpu-threads to 1 then (instead of 2).
Start with calculated rawintensity then decrease by 8 to find best hashrate.
Don't ever use xIntensity. Rawintensity only. So I started with rI of 256, worksize = 4 and gpu-threads = 2 and got fairly anemic results. Changing worksize to 8 improved hashrate, while changing gpu-threads to 1 reduced hashrate, so I went back to 2. Right then I knew the above info wasn't useful, so I decided to do a binary search to find the best rI. Since I was at 256 the next increment was 512, but that resulted in SGMiner-GM crashing soon after starting up. Next up was 384 - halfway between 256 and 512 - and that was faster than 256, so next was 416, and that was faster still, but by a much smaller margin so I felt like I was getting pretty close to the optimal setting. Turns out that was just a tad too high because the rig would still crash after a few hours so I dropped rI to 408 and it's been humming along ever since. My average hashrate isn't quite as good as yours, though - 458 H/s per card - but it's a lot better than the 330 H/s or so they delivered in stock form.

I like your systematic approach to reach these numbers. I followed slightly different calculations for building my rx 570 right. I ended up using rawintensity 896 and worksize 8 for my rx 570s. Since rx 560 uses 16 compute units (as compared to rx 570 32 units) I halved rawintensity and then reduced it until I reached optimal value which is 416. I ran my 560 for 3 straight days without error. Btw I like to restart my rig after every 24 hours automatically.

Which miner you are using and what is your config file? Also, do you know how many compute units your card has? You can obtain compute unit values by running Claymore cryptonight miner. It shows compute unit number at the start. Using XMR stack. Have 16 Compute unit cores and the memory is 7000mhz, Flashed with click auto bios. I have been altering my config files like changing intensity, worksize, etc. Feel like my cards are just a bad bunch I was having troubles getting sg miner to work. Will get it sorted tomorrow when I have time.

Will get it sorted tomorrow when I have time. Try sgminer version 5.5 from genesis mining. I am currently using this version and it works great with core 1130, memory 1950 and 950 mV undervolt. Take special care of gpu-platform settings.

I'm getting these errors using sgminer-gm v5.5.5 Any ideas? Right now, sgminer is initializing the built-in intel HD graphics card. You need to tell sgminer to use AMD cards. Try setting --gpu-platform 0 in your .bat file. If that does not work, try --gpu-platform 1.

Hey !
I've 6x Gigabyte RX560 4gb Micron Rev2 and i'm looking for the same hrate. Can you share a bios and the oc please ?
I've god 370h/s with SMOS and 1050/2000 OC
I would be grateful
Micron isnt really great, my elpida and hynix cards all do close to 500 hash. Micron i cant get over 440 hash, this is my micron memory strap for 1500+ mhz: 777000000000000022AA1C00315A5436A0550F15B68C1506004082007C041420CA8980A9020004C 01712262B612B3715

RX560 not good to use cryptonight, because RX550 more cheaper and easyly get 450h/s. User 560 for eth forks mining

My 560 Micron is doing 499H/s, My Hynix 560 is doing 474h/s pretty stable on HiveOS...

Not all rx550's are good, i have one sapphire rx550 4 gb micron and its my worst card, 430 hash. gigabyte rx550 2gb elpida gives 480 hash. Any body here manged to unlock full 1024 shader on new 560 models, also any idea if there is performance gain from unlocking shaders for ETH And XMR
Hi, I unlocked shader on rx 460 models, and it doesnt give you more hash on cryptonight, makes sence, since the rx550 does same hash in cryptonight with only 512 shaders. Also my gigabyte rx460 4gb micron got really unstable when i unlocked shaders from 896 to 1024, the msi rx460 2 gb hynix was stable, but not more hash then with locked shaders.

Ya if they rx560 cost the same as the rx550 i think i also would buy the rx560. But the rx550 does hash at same speed as rx560 with lower power consumption ( about 35 vs 22 watts in GPU-Z) This is for cryptonight algo only. But the rx560 is faster in ethash and equihash, so it really depends on what you want, where i live power costs 24 cents/kw/h, so for me the rx550 is better buy. If you only pay 5-10 cents for power i would buy the rx560.

I tried 1 rx460 2gb sapphire, with samsung memory. The auto tune in polaris bios editor applied Ubermix straps. Managed to reach 500+ h/s at cryptonight with windows 10. But when I try with SMos, I only get 420h/s.
Any idea why ? or any suggest to reach 500 again in SMos ?

Are you using the same version of mining software and AMD driver in SMOS?

Hi, I have Sapphire pulse RX 560 2gb
I'm wondering if you are still mining with that card and which miner, SGMiner has not released update version to support the new cryptonight forks
Thanks!

I still mine Ethash and CryptoNight forks with my 2GB RX 560s - right now they are on MUSIC (Ethash) - but for CN-forks I use xmr-stak (thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3264773.0). Other people have reported good results with SRBMiner (thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3167363.0) but I haven't tried it myself, mainly because it took quite a lot of tweaking to dial in xmr-stak so I am loathe to abandon all that time and effort...
