Mining ERGO with Vega 56 & 64

i used amdvbflash in windows via cmd and normal interface but none of them cant flash the bios

also i tried saphaire bios and xfx bios none of them cant be flashed

update : tried via hiveos force bios and done! thank you for say about this option !

Sorry it wasn’t 990w, it’s 960w

Hello,
i live on a place there i have to pay 0,34$ for electricity. so i have to optimise my effektivitet. anyone have an idea to optimize the setting?

950w at the wall.

i had a powercolor vega 64 flash to 56 bios. i only can get 170MH with memory tweak

amdmemtweak --CL 20 --RC 37 --RP 11 --WR 14 --CWL 8 --FAW 12 --RAS 20 --REF 65535 --RFC 248 --RTP 5 --RRDL 6 --RRDS 3 --WTRL 9 --WTRS 4 --RCDRD 12 --RCDWR 12

is there any chance to increase hashrate and lower power usage?

ya 750 VDD is too outside the allowed range so its setting that to default. I think you will need to set vdd around 850-900, but that will actually drop your wattage compared to the 750 setting.

To get hash up to 180 you probably need to increase core to 1350-1375 as well.

my rig is going to reboot after if i put vdd above 750. any solution sir?

You should always stop the miner before changing Overclock settings, just stop the miner, change the OCs, then start the miner.

These two are powercolor looks like I also have mem set to 875 and one needs over 900 vdd

Curious, what hashrate are people seeing at the pool vs in the miner?

With 2x Vega 56’s in teamredminer I have got them running just under 400mh in the miner (at around 175w each) but at the pool it seems to average out around 300-325mh? It will go up to 350mh at some points but drops back down.

Not sure it is worth the extra power and heat at 300mh vs eth at 100mh.

thanks. i follow your intstruction and your oc setting. i got around 183MH, btw after a few minutes it drop to 163MH then it increase to 183.7MH again after few second. is that about my tweaks?

it drop increase, drop then increase, keep looping like that

@846875 I typically see about 1.5% to 3.5% less in the miner than reported in HiveOS over the long run (after at least a few days uptime). In the short term the miner will show all sorts of results but take the long term average if your comparing vs ETH. Right now its considerably more profitable on ERG for Vegas.

@lil ERG has a short period after each block is solved where no mining occurs, and if you watch the miner it stops mining and builds a table each time a block is solved, that is why you see the drop in hashrate approximately every 2 minutes(ERG average block time). Nothing you can do to prevent it, its just how ERG works.

thats meaning some block i got at 183MH and some block i got at 168MH like that right?

No, when its mining you’re getting 183 but between blocks since it stops mining for a couple seconds it reports less hash. It happens to all miners at the same time, but once it builds the table and starts mining again it goes back to 183.

Yeah, on eth I see about the same, just a few percent less reported by the pool but on ergo it was getting almost 400mh in the miner but only 300-350 tops at the pool.

According to whattomine that is about the turnover point where the profits are a wash when factoring in power.

I did notice the rebuilding of the cache or something every few mins and figured that would be part of the cause for the lower reported hash at the pool.

Thats why I was wanting to know what others were seeing at the pool on ergo with that factored in.

I am mining to nicehash if that makes any difference.

Also curious what is a safe max temp for these GPU’s? They are in the garage and still pretty new to mining, these are my old gaming cards that I decided to start mining on instead of selling.

On eth they generally sit around 60c core and low 70’s mem in the garage with ~100F ambient temps.

On ergo they are around 8-10C higher. so 70c core and low 80’s mem.

Will this hurt them long term?

I see it. Im using your OC setting by the way my rig is restart every 30 minutes. Can you help? Maybe its because OC setting.

Probably just need to increase VDD by 12. Which settings exactly?

i decrease the core looks like works fine. i monitoring before its shut down, it increase to 203MH then shutdown. after that i decrease core a little and its on 183.7MH.

Finally stated to fine tune erg template, trying to find compromise W/hash…i think there is one or two ref 56 that needs new pads!

the rog strix 64 is running 58c? at 144 watts?! ya needs some pads and paste

EDIT: ahh fans at 50% my b, just turn the fans up a bit those temps are not bad

yeah, i had fans set up bit low and allso on rig my fans were tuned down after cold nights with eth…didnt even noticed! thanks for reminder lol… btw do you remember what thicknes are pads for that rog strix?,same 1mm/1,5mm ?
