I'd suggest running @eliovp's AMDMemTweak tool to see if the strap settings are getting the modifications.  Run it without -strap first and note some of the values (tCL, etc) and then run it with -strap to see if indeed they are being applied.  There a thread in Mining (Altcoins) just for this program and the executable is up on GitHub.

I did it and with -strap 1 I am getting only 20.2MHs per card..

here is the screenshot without applying any -strap :

here is the screenshot after applying -strap 1 :

What's wrong ??

It looks like the -strap command in Claymore is not being applied since both of the views in the AMDMemTweak tool seem to show the same data.  So even though he's reporting that the strap was successful, the AMDMemTweak tool seems to show that it was not.  Which is why you're not getting a reasonable hash rate ... you're getting the same for both no -strap and -strap 1.

What version of Windows are you on?  I've had trouble with Win10 release 1903 similar to this.
