Hi,
I am a technical person who has just entered the fray of cryptocurrency mining so I am a newbie.
I have a rig with two RX580 cards. I am running Claymore miner for GPU. I am mining MONERO from miningpoolshub.com.
Despite a lot of initial difficulty, I got it working but I have a very low hash rate.
At best I can 600 hash per second with both cards.
Something is wrong because I have seen youtubers getting mh/s in speed.
These are my settings:
NsGpuCNMiner.exe -xpool stratum+ssl://us-east.cryptonight-hub.miningpoolhub.com:12024 -xwal xxxx.yyy -xpsw x -dmem 1 -h 1900 -mport 0
What do I have to do to get it to a mh/s speed?
Is there a special driver I need to use?
Thanks in advance for the help.
You need to do a bios modification of your cards in order to achieve higher hashrate, usually 800+ h/s per card is a normal standard after bios mod for a RX 580. Other than that you can use blockchain driver which you can download from AMD website here

Here is a video to help you understand the basic concept of bios modification. If you are a tech person like you say , you will have no problems doing it yourself.
