Very kind of you Branko, considering how people have been trying to sell these Bios. Now if only I had some of these cards. Huge value for money!

Anyone can share results, I'm specially interested about cryptonight, as there are a lot of mining programs, and various configurations (and I don't have enough time to test all)

Hi Branko! I was using your old Micron strap in my Powercolor RX460 (with RX560 bios) with GatelessGate Sharp with 49/8/2 and performance is good. I'll try your newer bios, but I have issues with capacitors and my RX460/560 boots at 20% starts, so I have to fix it before. It's really impressive what you reached. 16MH/s+ in a cheap board like this is awesome.

Hi Branko,
I've tested the strap on 2 GPUs: 1. Gigabyte GV-RX560OC-4GD - ETH 15.6MHz@2125 and hang@2150 2. MSI RX560 AERO ITX 4G OC - works unstable even at 1950MHz

Hi Branko, thanks for this awesome post. I may need some help tho, is your GPU a gigabyte version? My MSI rx 560 keeps crashing whenever i go beyond 15mh.

Great stuff here, credit to the OP. Somewhere else people have to spend money for this.
Is the BIOS only works for certain type of memory? or it will work on any other?

Its Micron only, it should work for other micron based cards, too (strap at 2000MHz) Branko, any idea, why power consumption of my GPU is higher than yours one, please?
thanks
Thats pretty crazy, I can't think about any other reason but bug in HWinfo, or AMD driver giving wrong info in either your or my case Interesting to note that your card has both bigger average fan speed, and whole 7C bigger average temperature...is it GB rx560 Rev1 with 2 fans and additional PCI-E power conenctor?

I guess memory cooling is super important, judging from this...memory chips seem to draw a lot of power too (about 50% of overall consumption in RX560 cards, I estimate, less for stronger rx570/580 GPUs), and if you look at picture I took before I put cooling paste, its obvious even memory package suffers from heat:

Those are impressive numbers. So the micron strap is at 2000 in your BIOS? I see you're running 1180mhz/890 mv core. Memory is at 2140mhz but what volts are you giving to it? I think I have an RX 460 lying around, ill see how high it goes with this strap ...

I change 2000MHz on micron and 2000+2250 on hynix, because theres no point changing lower straps...if for some reason default 1750MHz strap doesn't work, you have bricked card that won't even boot...same goes for changing default frequencies in BIOS...if card won't work, you'll get bricked card that you have to spend time to get back to working condition Both memory and core are set to 875mV in BIOS (but memory is actually working at 2240 in my case )

The fan speed is bigger because I use AB software fan control with custom fan speed curve. PS. Today I'm going to test the strap on another GV-RX560 edition GPU. Will let you know the results later.

That one is rev.2, its worse than rev 1, but interesting that it actually draws more power...maybe hwinfo actually measures only power drawn over pci-e slot, and don't add power drawn over additional connector? Although that doesn't make much sense when you look at stronger cards that draw most of power from additional connectors

I meant those drivers (Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition Beta for Blockchain Compute Driver Version 17.30.1029 (Windows Driver Store Version 22.19.659.0). I have tried the Adrenalin Edition drivers a couple of times. But each time I got lower hashrate than with the blockchain drivers. Perhaps, I should try once again. Thank you for the hint.

Of course I did However hashrate was ~1Mh/s worse than with the drivers I use. Anyway, seems, it's time to try once again. Btw, what exact version are you using? The most recent one (18.3.2) or...?

Ok, I need some suggestion, and I thought that someone here may help me.
I purchased an used XFX 460 2 gb ( because I want to learn to make custom strap for cryptonight...) and I got it very cheap.
I tested "stock", and was giving 11 Mh on ubiq and 320 on Cryptonight
Then I saved the bios, baffin.rom, and I open it with Polaris and used the one click function to move the strap from lower speed to the higher ones. Memory is Hynix and Elpida
I flash the bios, windows is ok and it hang in Claymore. And it hang in Xmr stack, GGS,Phoneix, and any mining sw I can think of.
I flash his own bios back and it hang in Claymore. And it hang in Xmr stack, GGS,Phoneix, and any mining sw I can think of.
Thats the first time it happened to me. I give a look on the internet and there is all this story about unlocking the shaders and so on, and a lot of people unable to flash the bios. Got me thinking, I remove the fan , and there are 4 chip from Elpida ELPIDA/EDW4032BABG-70-F, that, according to the datasheet are 4 GB GDDR . Just to confirm I removed a 550 4 gb Asus, and it the same "configuration" but the chip are from micron.
So, What I have is probably a 4gb, cutted somehow in the bios to 2 gb. In the process of copying the bios and restoring it something changed and now isn't working as 2 GB, even if its recognized as 2 gb from the miners
Is this possible or there is an easier solution to what happened ?
Its "safe" to try to install a stock bios of a 460 4GB on it ?

They're 4 gigaBITS, 4x4 gigabits = 16 gigabits = 2 gigabytes

I've just tried the latest drivers (18.3.2) from amd... Ok, it was just a waste of time. Completely. 1. AB doesn't work properly with these drivers 2. The 'Compute Workloads' can't be switched on for some of my GPUs for some reason 3. The 'Radeon Settings' software is f'cking sloooooow and extremely f'cking inconvenient (I was very close to smashing my laptop, waiting while the next UI screen is being opened after a button is clicked) 4. I've not managed to get acceptable hashrates 5. Rolled back to the blockchain edition drivers original old blockchain driveers are known to draw more power
Seems, power consumption is approximately the same for the both. Branko, what exact version of the drivers do you use, please?

Hi, Branko! I have RX 560 Gaming OC 4G card and want to try how much better you settings will hash. But when I try to flash I got an error
=== Flashing card 2 === Old SSID: 22FF New SSID: 22ED SSID mismatched
ERROR: 0FL01
Does it mean that you bios is incompatible?
Sorry if it is a stupid question, I do not have much experience with replacing bios with different one, up to now I have was modifying original bioses only.

There are at least two versions of that card (rev 1 and rev 2, my bios is for rev 1)...quite possible there are new revisions with less shaders, too

I've just tested one more GPU: Adapter 2 (BN=04, DN=00, FN=00, PCIID=00001002, SSID=000022FF) Asic Family : Polaris11 Flash Type : GD25Q41B (512 KB) Product Name is : GV-RX560GAMING OC-4GD/FW0/06F3 Bios Config File: RX560GO4.FW0 Bios P/N : P/N Not Available Bios Version : 015.050.002.001.000000 Bios Date is : 01/07/18 02:14
The result is the same as for the msi aero - works unstable even at 1950MHz @1377toolz Do you use whole bios provided by Branko or straps only? What core freq do you use? I have problems with stability with the card until I lower core to 1100 and undervolt it to 775, after that I've got memory to 2100 (with PBE timings, not Branko)

I apply the same (or almost the same) mods to original GPU's bios.

The chips on the GV-RX560GAMING OC-4GD/FW0/06F3 are marked as 7WB77 D9VVR. MSI RX560 AERO ITX 4G OC - 7WB77 D9VVR Gigabyte GV-RX560OC-4GD - 7SA47 D9TRZ
That's the answer why the msi aero and gigabyte gaming behaves in a similar way - they use the same memory chip.
D9VVR is MT51J256M32HF-80:B
Now that is interesting...your ordinary GB seems to have 1500MHz chips, so no wonder it doesn't work good, but these with D9VVR if that's indeed MT51J256M32HF-80:B should work even better than my cards, as that indicate 2000MHz chips...now you got me curious enough to go buy one, but lucky as I am, I'll probably get one with 1500MHz Hynix

" -80" means the highest possible data rate in the series - 8.0 Gb/s. So GPUs with such memory should give a good hash rate. Seems, we just need a strap with proper timings.

Usually I start testing using the following conditions: CV: 800mV PL: +25 CC: 1150MHz MC: 1950MHz "with PBE timings" - PBE timings usually work fine for me as well

I had a negative experience with BIOS update, firmware fell and had to carry to the service center for the recovery. You have to be careful.

You can usually do it yourself, if you have another card, or onboard video But of course, always be careful about what you're doing

I have RX 560 Gaming OC 4G rev.2 card. Memory type identified in BIOS is just the same but strap that work so nice for rev. 1.0 card is not really better then original unmodified for the card. Anything above 14 Mh got unstable. So I reverted back to PBE timings that at least get 14.6 Mh/s stable. Not too much :-( Thanks for tips and discussion. Sorry no merit to share.

I was thinking to make a rig of those, any of you have used latest 11.5 from Claymore ? I saw a jump on 550 hashrate, and I was wondering if the same things happened with tH 560

I'm still using v.10.5. I've tried v.11.2 but there was no ETH hashrate increase. Also I doubt about v.11.x stability after I've read some forum posts.

I am struggling to get stable settings with 11.5 It really has performance premium, but even OLDKERNEL switch did not restore stability. But as it is a test rig I am trying different approaches. Do not plan to have 15+ hashrate unless you are extremely lucky ;-)

Thats because of this (from 11.3 upwards): "- added assembler kernel for RX550 card. This card is not good for dual mining, but in ETH-only mode ASM kernel is faster by about 7%." RX560 assembler kernel was added long ago, more than half a year I think (version 9.7)

Bok Branko, I need help with my Saphire 2GB RX560. How can I download BIOS? How can I modify BIOS or even better to ask someone with more experience to do that for me.

You can find how to do basic BIOS mod reading https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1954245.0 Or you can buy a BIOS that fit your card from a site mentioned in the guide. Other option is to buy PBE 2 BIOS modding editor but be advised - it make sence only if you are going to mod many other cards.

Someone asked so here it is...this BIOS is for this card only (not v2, which is worse, but you can probably try same strap with lower hashrate) https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-RX560GAMING-OC-4GD-rev-10#kfBIOS link: https://[Suspicious link removed]/QikERJ Your result may vary (silicon lottery, worse cooling - because I replaced thermal paste with Arctic Cooling MX3, as original one is not good at all, etc) I played a bit more and managed to get hashrate to flow between 16.5 and 17.1 in Phoenixminer, but with some memory errors in HWinfo , so I consider this the best I managed to get) so what coins are you mine using RX 560? because I have some VGA RX 560 but I am confused to mine what coin? only for Ethereum or any coin ?

You can mine any coin that has mining software for AMD cards
