I tried mining with mkxminer v.2 on stratum+tls://mona.suprnova.cc: 3001. Miner goes perfectly is very powerful. Compared to sgminer, this is an incomparably more powerful program.
On my mining rig, the RX480 achieves such results: https://imgur.com/PDMkr2t
On the first page are approximate GPU card performance. I only reach 26 Mh/s.
How to get the RX 480: 36MHs ? I have four msi RX480 8GB (1303/2000 Mhz) and no overclocked GPU cards.

Are you using the "best' batch file that comes with the miner? That should give you 33-34 mh/s at stock settings based on the testing I've done on a Rx 480 8 gb.
I use this setting for gpu. I forgot to add that bios are original without modification.

Code:
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

mkxminer.exe -o stratum+tls://mona.suprnova.cc:3001 -u user -p pass -I 19

pause

Try it with "-I 23" as recommended by the developer. It's what we use as well for Rx 470, Rx 480 and Rx 570,  Rx 580 - we get 33-34 Mh/s on both the Rx 480 and Rx 580s (8 total GPUs, with 1 exception that only does 30 for some reason).
I tried to give the original intensity 23 as you type but writes that high intensity: https://imgur.com/a9GrAs0.
So I lowered to 22 and the resulting value is 30 Mh/s here is the screen: https://imgur.com/CWOPvkZ.
Consumption is 970 W at this setting and core temperature also 75 degrees, which is quite high for me.
I'm trying to reduce the GPU rate as Mhz and core voltages and later I will publish my results.
