Hi there.

I have rig with 6 XFX 580 8GB on samsung memory, im using simpleminer and I can't change "Core MHz" If I put there for ex. 1150 or 1200 on dashboard I see 1201. What can be possibly wrong? Now I've set up:

Did you BIOs mod these yourself or use the dual bios switch that XFX has? It looks like that is the core set via BIOS. My XFX 580's I just bought recently have Micron memory and using the BIOs switch the core is set to 1150mhz.

I'd noticed this too, but it's not consistent. Sometimes you can reboot and get the OC settings in SMOS, sometimes not.

Do you have any more links / information on this? I did not have experience for updating bios and would like to know more about this in more detail.
