Hi All,

1st post so please go easy on me !

I have successfully managed to get a Monero miner up and running using 5 x Saphire RX580 Nitro+ 4GB Hynix memory.
Using all stock out of box settings they hash at 624 h/s

Im currently using ethos and using globalmem at 2160 and globalcor at 1215 with powertune set to 3, and globalfan set to 45, I have them hashing at 670 h/s running with the included sgminer-GM at 40 degrees.

My question is, is it worth me rebuilding the rig running windows to try and increase this hash rate? What sort of h/s do people think is achievable with these cards?

Currently my rig is pulling between 530 and 545 watts at the wall.

Any help greatly appreciated.
Pretty good stock hashrates... and very good wattage! Well my RX 480 has 840H/s with Samsung memory on XMR-STAK almost same RX 470 with Elpida. What is interesting that RX 470 with Samsung has 870H/s Cheesy it could be alsmot 900H/s but it's not stable.
I will test hashrates with SGminer next week. SGminer should have little bit better hashrates, but I like XMR-STAK web stats.

You can use modded bios on ethos, only voltage in bios shouldn't be changed, but performance timings will work for sure.
You better use Windows for flashing card or usb flash drive with atiflash.
