Hello,
I just received a Sapphire RX480 8GB (Reference Design) GPU. It is still using stock BIOS, I did not touch it and I do hope I don't need to.
Is anyone around here who has some good parameters that do work with this GPU in order to squeeze some more hashes out of it without modifying the BIOS?
I tested around on my own, but even with "-cclock 1266" and "-mclock 2000" (which should be the stock values if GPU-Z shows me the correct numbers) the system crashes shortly after start of the miner.
I am using the latest drivers. Any recommendations?

Edit:
Since I did not have success with Claymore Settings I tried the WattTool. This seems to work, nice tool for tweaking and testing around, but I guess it might be a lot of work when dealing with more GPUs and switching between Coins (ETH/ZCash).
I think the problem with the Claymore Settings is, that I can not go below stock settings (overclocking was working, at least for mclock). Could this be a driver issue? I am using the latest one...

Best settings that are stable for running anything; not just mining:
Core clock - 1350
Core volt - 1135
Mem clock - 2200
Mem volt - 1100

Set target fan speed to max and target temp to 70C so that it does not throttle itself.
