Best BIOS ROM for Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB Limited Edition Hynix Memory 31.5+ Mh/s

Here it is guys, the beast, the best of, the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB Limited Edition mining peformance test and review.

First of all i must say that this is one of the best GPU i ever tested. It is STABLE, RUN COOL, BEST HASHRATE and is HUGE!!!

As my previous test for the PULSE version i did the same tests, same practice. I tested it with Ethereum + Decred, Siacoin, LBRY Credits and PascalCoin also Zcash (Equihash), Monero (CryptoNight) and Nicehash.

Stock performance, mining hashrate and power consumption!

POWER CONSUMPTION FOR SYSTEM IS AROUND 50W AND 60W

Stock bios & clocks (silent bios version) NO OTHER MODIFICATIONS

  • 1411/2000
  • 22.5 Mh/s on Ethereum
  • GPU-Z 135w
  • From wall 180w
Stock bios with undervolt, underclock and highest memory clock (silent bios version)

  • 1150/2250 -96mV
  • 21.2 mh/s on Ethereum
  • GPU-Z 90w
  • From wall 125w

Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB Limited Edition Mining Performance Review

 

1 Tools and Software needed

NOTE: I already did a similar tutorial for a RX 470 4GB and i will link some points there to avoid writing the same thing over and over again!

For this card the bios is already switched to NON OC version (HDMI SIDE), do this:

  • first start the pc with his default bios position (non oc, hdmi side)
  • once windows is booted switch jumer to the other side and restart the rig
  • now check the following steps
2 Backup OC BIOS

3 Switch BIOS

4 Backup “Silent” BIOS

Before to continue further, please share this 🙂 thanks!

5 Download BIOS

Important, this BIOS is for Hynix memory only! Check your memory with GPUz software

6 Flash BIOS with ATiflash

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

Here are my results with this BIOS rom
