Bios Mod for different Algo.

[Ferdous Hossain]

Hi everyone,
 
A few days back I got 2 Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 4gb (elpida) GPU. I've seen many people on internet modding their bios & getting a better hashrate than before.

 As I'm new to bios modding, I tried to download some modded bios. But, it seemed the SKU value is different in all cases. For my model the SKU is-11265-07-41G. Rather than having this SKU value I've found 11265-07-20G in all modded bios on the internet. The fun fact is when I click LOOKUP in GPU-Z it refers me to a web page of 11265-07-20G SKU number.
 
Would this be a problem if I apply those modded bios?
 
I've also found different bios for different Algo. Such as, for ETH there's a different bios & for XMR their is a different bios.

I'll mine with Nicehash. Currently Nicehash has selected DaggerHashimoto for my card. It(the algo) may change overtime.
 
So, how can I tell which bios mod is best suitable for different types of algo?
 
I'll play games in my desktop. So, it would be better to have a non-aggressive modded bios.(Can I really play games using modded bios?)
 
Is there any good Tutorial regarding bios modding  & is there any chance that the GPU may degrade in time(3-4 years)? Some redditor claimed that their GPU degraded in a few weeks.
 
 
Thank you All.

Most important is to get the right polaris bios editor. SRB has a fork that automatically sets your memory strap/timings for 30 mega hash performance.

ps, try coinfoundry.org as your ethereum pool it has good uptime and tech support. You'll have to be more patient at a smaller pool like coin foundry but we should not be contributing to the centralization of ethereum by mining on ethermine.org and other mega pools.

coinfoundry.org ! 

Can you please give me any link regarding the right Polaris Bios Editor?
