What clocks and voltage settings are fellow Vega64 users setting for mining ETH&blake2s?
I have only been mining Cryptonight coins with my Vega rig so far but it looks like we might now have a new contender in town...

I second that request for vega56 cards

1240 core /1100 memory with v64 bios and -dcri 45 yield 43 Mh/s + 1950 blake2s.  Although I still feel mining only cryptonight is more profitable for Vega since the power consumption increases when dual mining.

Thanks a lot! Is flashing the v64 bios also advised when mining cryptonight? What's your hashrate for cryptonight? I'm at 1,8-1,9 kH with 2 vega 56.

Flashing v64 bios not really required if you plan on mining Cryptonight.  I used to do 1910-1920 on stock at 1408/900-930 and similar power consumption.  I am sure Vega56 can do 10w lower than v64 but I didn't want to spend time to tweak when a ppt of v64 was already available. ETH was huge boost 39 to 44 just because memory frequency was bumped.

I can not understand I started to mine XVG on nimining, I see the drop of shares on ETH.
Nobody noticed this more?

I haven't.  Although I am using -dcri flag of 50 or lower on RX580/RX570s. 

The only problem I faced was once I start claymore and DAG gets loaded my miner used to hang and only 1 RX580 out of 6 used to show mining until eventually hanging the whole system.  Turned out the default voltages/clocks was consuming lot of power with -dcri 50 (Spiked to 1600w+ Rig is a 9 GPU; 3 Nvidia + 6 AMD and perhaps I had an overdraw in my 850W psu that was powering 5 of the RX580s).  Spent good 45 minutes troubleshooting this.

So I switched back to -dcri 10 and power consumption spiked to ~1500. Once OC profile from OverdriveNT is applied I increase the -dcri flag to 50.  Power consumption drops to ~1350w.  Need to BIOS mod with the lower voltage values to the card just to get rid of power spike when starting off the miner.
