Interesting. Where do you measure these watts? Software or at the wall? I've got 2 rigs mixed with rx480&rx580's and they are so power hungry. Yours seems to draw under 160w/card.

this is with all the rig and usb mouse and keyboard

at card, look here from techhpower gpu

yes they are 150-160watts out of the box, but you haven't modded them? when i stated i was 1480 watts at wall , i then got to 1100 or so with small mods

i have been told on anoak site, i should be around 880watts, with 31mh/s but the guy has not got back to me yet with the bios

WOW! That's how it should look! I bet you are running Windows?
Your figures, how does one read those: "1150/850mv 2150/850mv"  First looks like clock speed and the second voltage. Is the first pair coreclock and the second pair memory? Sorry for my noob questions Smiley

Do you use PolarisEditor to hack bios or something like Trixx or Afterburner to do it on the fly?
I'm using Linux so I have to set everything up in Windows using Polaris Editor and then move to the Linux rig.
Megahash works OK, I get around 29Mh/s but it seems quite hard to get the watt usage down when the card sits in the linux box. Can't figure out how the same bios can act so differently.
