This is me killin it on Ubuntu 16.04 w/ 6x MSI rx470 4GB

BONUS --> Only 640w total draw at the wall... (custom bios 1160core/1900mem/1500straps)



How are you modifying your bios?  You just going into UEFI boot and changing the options?  I'm new to this obviously. 

Core 1160 = gpu core clock rate?
Mem = memclock rate?
What is straps? 
Also, have you tried undervolting the gpu's or is it possible on ubuntu? 

I have 2 unmodded sapphire rx480's running at 577H/s
"threads": 1,
"rawintensity": 1024,
"worksize": 8



Bios Mod.
 - dump stock rom with gpu-z
 - open in polaris, change core clocks, mem clocks, and set all straps above 1500 to the 1500 strap.
 - save and write new rom to card with atiflash.

You can learn alot about it over on Zcash forms.  Search Anoraks VBIOS.

I have no done any undervolting (yet).  You cant do that directly in ubuntu against the amdgpu-pro drivers.  You can only change core and mem clocks on the fly using the /sys/class/drm/* stuff.   

I'm thinking @ 650w TDP,  do I really risk stability to save a few more watts?

For MSI RX470 4G, I'm using..

            {
               "index": 1,
               "threads": 1,
               "rawintensity": 960,
               "worksize": 8
            }
