So I know I have a ways to go, but I spent last night going through this thread and a few articles on other pages off of this thread.  I know this thread was created to help people understand so that is what I am trying to do, i am not hear to ask others to create my values.  Few questions to start off. So understanding some of the posts it seems tightening the timings is more memory specific than card specific.  So I can create a value from a rx 480 sapphire with hynix and it could work on a gigabyte rx480 with hynix?  When looking at timings for 4gb vs 8gb, changes can be made in different places.  For example on my xfx rx 480 8gb with samsung I see only samsung timings but in my sapphire rx480 nitro+ 4gb, I see places I can change for either samsung, or elpida/hynix.  I am using srbpolaris / polaris and even with my 570 I see changes on 4gb cards being made at the 2: section for elpida/hynix vs 1: for samsung.  I know that is just strap copying, but gotta start at basics.  In srbpolaris (I know most of you guru's use linux, and it is not my forte, but will work on learning) I am able to analyze a strap and I am seeing alot of sections I can change.  After reading some more through the thread, I see that it is not always a specific set of values for every card you can change, seems I need to learn the cheat sheet for what each value does.  It seems FAW is one that can always be set to 0 but I dont see 32AW (at leasnt not in srbpolaris). TRP can be changed it seems pretty consistently throughout all cards?  Also I am unsure how to decode the MISC.  I could be using the wrong tool, and if so I just need to spend more time on what else I can use.  Any guidance you all can provide would be really helpful and appreciated. 

Sorry if my thoughts seem random, I was trying to remember all I had thought about last night while reading!
