Re: AMD Mem Tweak XL - Read/modify timings/pp/straps on the fly

I'm running a batch of 8Gb 470/480/570/580. All running at REF 30 now and getting an average of 150 - 200h/s extra a card on CN-Conceal. These are all non-bios modded. Extra H/s bonus for setting tRFC (155) & tRC (69) across all. All around 1750 - 1800h/s a card. Haven't started playing with the straps yet. Hope this helps someone starting out.

Can somebody shares some good settings for Radeon VII, please?

I need too. but people keeping silent. But disput about oldest cards - 290x and 470.  Grin
We are needing support for new card. Navi is coming!  Cheesy but we don't have normal settings for vega 20 (radeon VII )

I have a 470 with Samsung memory. Try lowering your tRFC and you should see a hash rise. My RX cards are around the 120 - 138 mark depending on what memory they have. Try that.

Eliovp, are there specific parameters in all the present ones to lower power consuption on RX cards ?

Thanks again for your tool !

Core control, lower the voltage. 1200MHz and 850/860mV is very stable for me (RX574s)

1100MHz and 900mV stable for me.

Thank you for some directions. Now it's time to play with that. One question though: I use the GUI. What happens after system restart or gpu crash? Everything stays the same or do i have to apply the values again?

You're welcome.

You have to apply the values again yes. See this as a positive thing ;-)

Cheers!

Thanks to your advice of playing with "tRFC" (along with Timing Level 2 setting) I've got a boost on CN-R, CN waltz and CN soft shell. I've got stable GPUs. What other values are better to change after this 1st step please ? Thanks !


Can you share some of those tRFC settings, it will give me an idea where to start on RX580s.
Thx

All GPUs are RX574

120 for Samsung memory.
125 for weak GPU with Elpida/Hynix
105 (stock value) for my Sapphire ITX  (Elpida/Hynix)

EDIT: these are timings for CN Soft Shell (Turtlecoin).

So you pushed your tRFC values up for your RX570's. I thought we were suppose to lower them slowly?

I had 153 and 163 before lowering them

AHH, got it. My values started in the early 200's
Got all cards down to the late 120's before crashing. Thanks for the tips.

Try the same values that people are posting for.vegas these are some good starting points. Not the same numbers of.course for rx's. Try RC and RP   RCR  etc and just lower a few.
I have some good straps for CN on my RX's but already gained about 3% playing with these.

Fancy posting those values so we have a baseline percentage of how much to reduce each by?

Hey guys, I don't have the 'timing level' box in the lower right of the GUI version of the tool. Is that something that only appears with bios modded cards?

It was a new feature in 19.x drivers... are you using older (18.x) drivers?

Yup, 18.6.1 - thanks for the explanation. I wondered why it wasn't there.

Any plans for supporting any other algos

E.g Conceal ccx

msOS Miner Update
gminer v1.41
wildrig-multi v0.16.0

Windows Miner Update
claymore-eth v14.0 Beta
gminer v1.41
srbminer v1.8.8
wildrig-multi v0.16.0

Anyone have any experience running SRB v1.8.7 as a client in minerstat? Whatever I do in the config file, it doesn't translate when I launch srb in minerstat.

Hello, you need to edit your configs online in Config Editor, minerstat replace your local configs from the cloud.

Thank you.

What srb in minerstat is stuck at:

Okay let's do this. Or moreover, please help a rookie out to reduce his wattage use and squeeze a few extra hash out with these non-modded cards.

First image is a RX580 4G & the second pic on the link is an RX480 8G.

Eliovp:

RX series modifications suggestion?

quick question. The order of the listings vs the order of the timings list is there away you can flip the positions?

when you run a timings Query the order is PMG, RAS, CAS... but the tools GUI goes PMG, CAS, RAS... just curious.

and is there a possible typo on the CAS timings? there's tCCLD however in the query there's tCCDL is this a typo or a different setting?

-------

So far managed to increase stock bios RX 570 from 22.4 to 27.721 via the tool.

After i get above 30 mhs i'll go a head and post my settings.
As 29 to 33.4 mhs is achievable with a 570 via BIOS mod no point in posting things that are less than that currently.

------------

Also dunno if you or anybody else knows.. if you zero out all the P states on the core control it'll actually remove the P state out of Wattman. which is pretty sick I love it.

If you're running the memory tweak also noticing that when you set the P state setting it'll fight you using the Wattman so this tool will replace your management for ALL of your settings.

-----------

Previously i thought you had to setup batch files to run for the cards, which you can do, however you can also just export the settings and import them.
    I understand this is probably stating the obvious, however just thought i'd point it out anyways in case people didn't see it.

However when you import the Fan control settings are blank and you have to put them in manually every time. Can you fix this?
----------
The biggest AH HA moment was when you click the timing level changed it from the default 0 timing level to timing level 1 or 2 the crashing on the card when certain changes were applied stopped occurring. check it out guys.

Once again... Eliovp.. thank you for making such a kick ass tool!!

As I'm running stock bios for my RX cards on XMR dude, any enhancements would be appreciated that you've found this far. It'll help me (and others) see where to be begin with tweaking their own Polaris set up. Finally, does this tool work in conjunction with srb miner?

Hi clousian,
At the moment we are not considering to add support for AMD.
We suggest that you user another miner like lol miner that has a good AMD support.

Hey guys,

getting error message while trying to run --current

Failed to load EIO.dll
Are you using SRBminer? It blocks it ((

Simply use the --disabletweaking parameter and you can use ElioVP's tool with it.

Hey dok, will you be giving us non-bios modded Polaris types a hashrate boost in your next release?

That's the plan, maybe not in the next release but yes  Smiley

Awesome. Looking forward to it.

Still no valid values for us un-bios-modded folks on Polaris cards?
Yeah but not everyone wants to bios mod they cards. Kinda interested in modding my cards on the fly with this tool.
Most people are not using this app for Polaris because good timing straps are already available for Samsung, Elpida and Hynix memory. I think Micron is the only strap not available to my knowledge. If you are using Polaris cards with these memory, just flash your bios using common known good straps.
