No effect on performance...clocks did not change at all...the group has been testing this all week. I would say it needs more scientific testing, such as reviewers with the proper equipment like thermal imagining as that would give us a better idea of how and why. As far as we know the only 2...

As I promised @W1zzard I would post this finding once I had verified with several more people testing it out. As I said I needed more data samples which a number of people tested this with changing one setting on the navi gpus in my initial tease. You will need either morepowertool or AMD...

@W1zzard Hey I just wanted to thank you for especially for the pcb spec and pics in this review. You saved me a lot of time in a little project I am working on with the Navi gpus in general. Once I get all the data I need and feel confident in I will share it here as well. A little tease on...

Here are mine so far on my Ref PowerColor 5700 XT posting since I am not seeing any. 1920 x 1080 highest settings. Redoing my 2560 x 1440 as I ran it at high not highest.

Do we need to apply again or send you a PM?

Applying again

A guy just pointed out to me on another forum an issue he had ran into...and well the short of it this...when he flashed his 480 to 580 and then customized his bios...3rd party software would show and make other programs show the overclocked memory speed, however it remained at 2000. I just...

One thing you have to pay attention in that video..well 2 things...first it was LN and also he was not cooling the VRMs if I remember correctly.

I am using the 1350/2000 bios from here... This one: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/191434/191434 Disclaimer here...I went ahead and cranked up some things in my bios view Polaris Bios Editor 1.4.1 I have Samsung memory. The power draw during testing can hit 300 watts but only during...

Been meaning to report back...since I got my PowerColor RX 480 Red Devil back about a week ago...flashed to a Powercolor bios. No Issue, however I ran into a how to put it...a pleasant issue... While my core will only do 1475 stable...so far my memory can run up to 2450 ( as high as I have...

One thing you have to keep in mind are the different VRMs used from one manufactuer to another and even some use different i2c as well. Cross flashing actually hardly works without a hitch. THat was the issue I ran into the night of the R9 290x to 390X when the first bios became availble...

I would not run Furmark or the OCCT from what Powercolor advised when they released the Unlock 480 bios to Red Devil owners.

I would suspect the RX 580 would be the same as the RX 480 in the fact that the 480 was very much memory bandwidth starved 2150 based on extensive testing was the sweet spot vs power over at overclock.net Also using the 1750 memory strap in place of the 2000 memory strap yielded better results...

Give the guy a break...we do not know things can be done until someone tries it. I did the same and was the first back with the 290X to 390X. He deserves kudos. My Rx 480 is out for RMA so could not try it. Anyhow I sent him a suggestion on fixing the Subvendor not showing on the 480 flashed...

That is what I thought...but wanted to make sure since I just enabled it, the way I was reading it was it was done once enabled or use it instead of windows balanced power plan.
