Looking to reduce power consumption on my rx560 rig, Afterburner can't access voltages so finally got around to installing OverdriveN tool.
On power limit -5% my cards can do max 1208mhz core without throttling, keeping it there as it's closest to stock core speed without going lower, don't wanna go "lower than what I bought" I'm weird like that haha.
I undervolted to 950 mV, went down to ~37W per card, they did up to ~48W at stock 1050 mV, might try to go lower but I worry about stability.
I read that the rx 550 can go down to ~30W at similar voltages? That's awesome, is it because of less ComputeUnits?

Heavy uses more memory so you'll probably have to dial back intensity quite a bit. I haven't yet tried this myself because the CN coins I primarily mine have foolishly delayed switching to an ASIC resistant algo...

So, I have my RX 560's churning away on MUSIC (Ethash) instead.

I'm mining MUSIC too but I'm also finding good ol Monero to be minable with rx 560, after the v7 fork the difficulty went down enough to be worth it, it won't last long so enjoying while I can.
