Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
Hi Guys,
I'm writing this post hoping that there is someone who could help me with some answers. I'm new in mining, as you all were in the beginning so I'm still trying to find my place in the huge amount of info.
Well, I've just set up my RIG (6 x XFX RX 470 8gb) and I'm currently trying to understand if the frequencies for memory and gpu shown in the SM console are the stock frequencies of the video card or the values I see there are overclocked by SMOS? It's currently show me 1180/1950/card.
Do you have any info on this matter?

If you have not set any OC values in Simpleminer then yes, they are the stock clocks on the card(s). If you load ATI winflash as well as polaris bis editor, you can save your BIOS and load it into polaris to look around at the stock values.
Hi,
Thx for the answer. The idea is that I didn't use the cards in windows before. Just installed the rig, inserted the usb with simplemining OS and that was it. This is why I was wondering if the frequencies shown in the console are the stock frequencies. I didn't change them, just wanted to know for sure that the OS does not apply any OC at all.
Got it. So yes, stock values are shown that you can tweak with the OC settings in SMOS. Keep in mind that you won't get as good of undervolting results in SMOS VS modding the BIOS. For me atleast the power profile setting in SMOS doesn't change much. Modding the BIOS voltages works great, have to know what you are doing though.
