Hello all,

i have sapphire rx 570 nitro+ OC 4GB with Elpida Memory

Ist the best way to use your way frome side one in this topic or search a better Bios in the forum and what hashrate are possible with this card by what power drow

Best Regards
Willi

I just got 3 of these cards (Yay NewEgg Black Friday Deals!) same elpida memory. I used the PBE one-click timings on the bios and I'm pretty happy with them. I'm sure there are better timings out there, but the current numbers aren't too bad and with a new baby I just don't have time to tweak.

I'm getting ~780 with a modest overclock (1250/1970) with SGMiner. Claymore could get over 800 with the same OC, but it wasn't running stable/reliably. I'm sure SGminer can match it, I just haven't found the right settings yet.

I haven't checked my power yet as I'm not finished with the build.

I really think you're better off performing your own BIOS save (so you have the backup if it ends up being necessary to revert), and the new "one click timing" option makes it so easy to try and test that you'll appreciate having done it yourself for the learning experience. The main concern is having your particular models specific BIOS saved though... , but you could also receive the wrong file if you don't mod it yourself (from the BIOS you know is 100% correct that you just retrieved from you GPU).. accidents happen.

I just did it myself last night with this threads guidance and gained 12 Mh/s between my two GPU (8gb · ellesmere rx 480 113-d0090101-100 samsung · k4g80325fb and 4gb · ellesmere rx 570 113-2e366fu-o53 elpida · edw4032babg). I can help via PM if you need.
