Best BIOS ROM for Sapphire RX 470 8GB Mining Edition with Hynix Memory 30+ MH/s

Here it is guys, as promised! Just finished to test Sapphire RX 470 8GB Mining Edition Hynix Memory, great performance just like the one with Samsung memory. In this benchmark i included LBRY and Pascalcoin and PascalLite for dual mining, i kinda avoided them lately but someone asked for them.

Firstly the GPU was tested remotely but later i got one from a friend, again power consumption will not be that accurate because i “LOST” the energy meter :/, we will compare it with the previous one.

Apparently the RX 470 8GB Mining Edition with Hynix memory is less problematic, so this time i wont have a “problems and fixes” section.

Here are some photos with the mining edition video card.

The BIOS

I discussed and explained how to use the QUAD UEFI BIOS switch jumpers in my previous tutorial for mining editon gpus, another thing you can find is a quick guide about to make the rig work without the GPU display adapter.

Flashing the BIOS

1 Back Up the BIOS

Before flashing the new BIOS, I recommend you to back up the original one first.

2 Download Modded BIOS for Sapphire RX 470 8GB Mining Edition with Hynix Memory

3 Flashing

VERY IMPORTANT: Always extract ATIflash to C:/atiflash folder and place the ROM file that needs to be flashed in the same directory
