I have nothing to compare it to since I just started last month.

But I'm having problems even getting over 15MH on my XFX RX-580! I usually run about 9ish.

It's on an old ASUS P6T-SE which is PCIe 2.0 but GPU-Z says 580 can run on a PCIe 3.0.

Could that be why its not working as hard as everyone elses 580s, or has anyone had 20+MH on an old MOBO with this card?

Thanks!

Hi, Jameous! Did you check if your GPU is in Compute mode in AMD Radeon Software instead of Graphics mode? (settings > Graphics > Advanced > GPU workload > compute) I've got an RX 570 and I'm getting about 30 MH/s. I'm using the following commands in the start_miner.bat file for the Binance pool:


REM
REM Example bat file for starting PhoenixMiner.exe to mine ETH
REM

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

REM IMPORTANT: Replace the ETH address with your own ETH wallet address in the -wal option (Rig001 is the name of the rig)

:START

PhoenixMiner.exe -pool stratum+tcp://ethash.poolbinance.com:1800 -wal *YOUR WALLET* -worker *YOUR WORKER NAME* -pass 123456 -tt 55 -fanmin 50 -cclock 1150 -cvddc 900 -mclock 2000 -mvddc 900 -mt 1 -rxboost 60 -logdir (DIRECTORY OF YOUR CHOICE TO STORE LOGS)

REM pause

timeout 5

goto START



You can also use the  " -acm " command to enable compute mode, as shown in the Readme.txt from PhoenixMiner file:

-acm
   Turn on AMD compute mode on the supported GPUs. This is equivalent
   of pressing "y" in the miner console.


Remember to check your specs for the following commands, since they are for overclock and undervoltage configurations of the GPU:

-tt
-fanmin
-cclock
-cvddc
-mclock
-mvddc-mt
-rxboost

Hope this helps,
