Undervolt on bios with PBE isnt working on linux (or I cant do it works). This is the big problen on SM I think. +200-300watts.

When you undervolt the steps you must also use all same value example there are 6/7 steps, from 2° to higest must use same value, cause on linux TP auto select index or you can also force to use it.

Anyway use SRBPolaris and everything will be good. on rx 480 i use 975mv memory and 920mv gpu (1190mhz)

Wrong - only will work on SRBPolaris if there's an offset in there already.

with that much higher power consumption i dont see the point to switch

There's ways to undervolt, just different.

Can someone help me with volting/power in SM.. Im struggling in this area like im sure many are!! My cards are consuming too much power and id like to see if I can bring this down.

I have assorted 570's and my overclocks seem stable but im consuming too much power. I've heard you can run high clocks 1250 core @ 950-975 mV but the power stage is hard to control this. What are other miners doing to try control power on rigs in SM.

Scenario 1:
1250 Core (stage 5/6), 2070 Mem (950Mv) hashing 28/29.5 MHs consuming about 160 watts per card from wall

Scenario 2:
1150 Core (stage 3), 2070 mem (950Mv) hashing 26-27 MHs consuming about 140 watts per card from wall (Id like to maintain a high hash rate but I loose a lot when I bring my core down).

Ive tried flashing the bios with hard values in

CURRENT Values: *large values/numbers are configured by vendors. Are ranges of power i think? (since they are general binned values for mass sale... since not all cards/silicon are equal)
Mhz mV
300 750
588 65282 (DPM stage 1)
952 65283 (DPM stage 2)
1041 65284 (DPM stage 3)
1106 65285 (DPM stage 4)
1168 65286 (DPM stage 5)
1209 65287 (DPM stage 6)
1250 65288 (DPM stage 7)

Ive tried hard values in my BIOS but power did not decrease
Mhz mV
300 750
588 850 (DPM stage 1)
952 850 (DPM stage 2)
1041 850 (DPM stage 3)
1106 850 (DPM stage 4)
1150 875 (DPM stage 5)
1200 900 (DPM stage 6)
1250 975 (DPM stage 7)

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to achieve lowest power consumption in SM?

Thanks
