[tale01]

Who have R9 NANO rig, What about your mining?
Still mining?

For me. I'm fine I'm OK. Still fun mining.

Share your Earning and Performance about R9 NANO  

I will share performance by algo, hashrate, electric, miner, os for more in next time.

Glad to see that you have maintained your rig.
I do not own an R9 Fury but I do have Vega 56 and with electricity prices at $0.11 per unit. It barely makes even for the electricity cost even when mining the most profitable coin at the moment.
What is the electricity price that you're paying?
Mining turtle coin?

Yes, mine turtle

No miner developing team makes optimizations for Fiji. They used to be on pair with gtx1070 in h\r(though with 20% more power consumtions) 2 years ago, but since then they have fallen behind significantly in newer algos, some times they even can't mine some at all(and not cos of 4gb, "AMD" simply don't support them). So, I've sold my last R9 Fury this summer realizing developers won't bother to make optimizations for them ever again.

Mining test R9 fury 2019

[adaseb]

These were good GPUs to actually mine ETH before the Polaris came out. I believe these were released late 2015 when ETH was launched and it was the most energy effecient GPU at the time especially the Nano.

I had a buddy who had tons of these. However for some reason he had very high failure rates, he said it was the highest failing GPU he has ever owned. When the Polaris came out people stopped buying Nanos due to their high price and bought the RX 470/480 instead. It had similiar hashrates and power consumption figures.

Since they were produced in small quantities, many miner developers don't spend too much effort trying to make them more efficient or faster. Hence they are usually just best in the hands of gamers.

[Divinity666]

Mining test R9 fury 2019

Just seeing first result in benchmark list makes me cry: 29.8mhs@170Watts on ETH)))) I had that hash rate @140-145Wt(975Mhz core) with my cards. Or it could be 30.8mhs @1000Mhz@155Wt. And unlike pascal it newer dropped with DAG grow) In most of Fury mining videos they even have 250+Wt... some miners. My h\rs in some other algos were: lyra2v3 58mhs@150-155Wt, cryptonightR 880hs@120Wt

I'm don't mine Ethash with NANO is a long time.

What do u mean? In the article there is ASUS Fury(neither X nor Nano). Though Nano should be have same exact performance as Fury X unless u make it throttle, which is impossible with most of algos if u tune it. Since properly tuned Fury x shouldn't be exceeding 180Wt Nano shouldn't have any throttling as well.

You can mine RYO i think, or maybe, ETH. Your GPUs are 4GB memory onboard, am I right? Use HiveOS and mine ETH. But the best way is to knock it over the door

[tale01]

What's your hashrate/profit?

Mine TRTL - hash 95kh/s earn 0.5-0.6$, 104w

[kuranes]

Mining eth at about 20-21 Mh/s.  -50% power limit, runs at 63-65c and the card draws about 75w according to HWMonitor. This is my personal PC, so at best I'm probably break even when you factor in the wattage of the rest of the pc.

I'm sorry  to ask, but why every thread about questions of mining, people are recommending to mine RYO?
I see the calculator and the volume of trading, and it makes no sense for me

I have some friends that owned R9 Fury, and it was a beast at the time, they mined some ETH, but for today it´s hard to keep mining with this card, to much power draw, and we are at a moment that every watt counts

[tale01]

This Time to see NIM and HNS 

[adaseb]

Mining eth at about 20-21 Mh/s.  -50% power limit, runs at 63-65c and the card draws about 75w according to HWMonitor. This is my personal PC, so at best I'm probably break even when you factor in the wattage of the rest of the pc.

What OS is this under? Is it with Claymore? If so try a different OS or a different miner and see if you can get a faster speed. You might be able to get 30MH/s. Back in 2016 or so this was the speed that these GPUs got.

They were the most power efficient GPUs at the time, however due to their cost, many just mined with R9 290 and later switched to RX series GPUs.

Reason why is because I think this GPU like the Hawaii suffer from the DAG slowdown and my R9 290 also hashed at like 20MH/s when a few years back hashed at 30MH/s. Apparently there is some bug with Windows or Claymore, so switch a few things around and see if you can get 30MH/s. Power consumption will be a little more.

Yeah this is Claymore on Windows 10.  If I run without turning down the power limit I'm able to get 30 Mh/s but it uses approximately twice the power (according to HWMonitor.)  So I figured 2/3 the output for half the wattage was more efficient.  I tried phoenix and seemed to get exactly the same numbers.

Thanks I have a R9 FURY doing 160w @ 18mh/s (850 core/850mv/500mem) (220w at wall on Octominer riseless mobo).

Have you tried unlocking your Nano for extra shaders? I tried mine but it wasn't able to unlock at all.

34khs in trtl v2 is good hashrate, i had one, lay down never mine with nano again

i know nano has good eficiency compared to newer card and easy to config with bios editing

old card its niice simple flashing mod bios and good to go, no need other config, this card quite hot with single fan

[tale01]

Yes, r9 nano easy to config OC.

Does anyone still keep memory strap modded in hexadecimal format or at least biod mod? I have the original straps but I have no way to decode it, there is nothing related to the HBM memories (linux user, amdmemtweak doesn't work there on fiji-HBM architecture)

What the mining result with memory strap modded?

amdmemtweak work fine on HiveOS. You can run command with menu "Run Command".
example command "amdmemtweak --REF 17000 --RFC 48 --RC 20 --RCDR 6 --RCDW 6 --RCDRA 6 --RCDWA 6 --R2W 6 --W2R 6 --FAW 1"

If you have good strap mod command, let me know it, I have 10 Fury NANO

I am precisely in hiveos and apparently it does not seem to work, as an example I have implanted straps in vbios and amdmemtweak apparently does not reflect the changes

I have confirmed that the changes can be "remarkable" I have some timing strap that I got on the internet but I don't know for sure what changes there are in those straps because I haven't found tools to decode it (there is only for GDDR5)

[Mr.merson]

PD, in any case if it has the shortened version (the fury with 56 cu sapphire) I can upload the vbios with the modified timing and you will be able to verify that amdmemtweak does not reflect the changes although in mining it behaves differently

I have version 64cu and I can applay timing with amdmemtweak it reflect to some algorithm as Argon2d-nim hash from 360 KH/s to 400 KH/s. But now not time to mine NIM

I suppose that the versions of 56 have a bottleneck due to the missing cu.

Its rare to have people actually mining with the R9 Fury. I remember back in 2015 they were very expensive and had many hardware defects and people either used the slightly less efficient R9 290X or they waited until the Polaris came out in 2016 and the efficiency was pretty much on par. After summer 2016, nobody really used the Fury for mining.

They were popular with gamers and most miners sold their Furys and bought some Polaris cards. So this is why you don't really hear too much discussion about the chipset. I think it was AMDs least produced chipset.

If someone finds a way to decode and re-encode the memory timings for HBM1 it would be of great help nowadays, I've heard comments that you can get a lot of performance out of it as far as kawpow and etchash... The biosmods of these cards were lost in limbo

Also here I leave my grain of sand, these are timing that I found by chance in the forum and implanted it in the vbios (they are slow timing) maybe it can be useful for someone


https://www109.zippyshare.com/v/my2xJZr0/file.html <------ It has a minimum voltage of 775 mv so there is a large margin for undervolting PD, disclaimer, I am not responsible for the damage caused although the changes are very minimal compared to the original bios, it applies only to the nitro version of sapphire

PD2, in case of failure these cards have dual bios, change to the main one and repair the secondary bios with a previously made backup
