Hey guys, so I just picked up a brand new RX 580 8GB so that I could use it to mine, but I seem to be getting WAYYY lower hashrates then everyone else with a RX 580, I was getting 22 MH/S with my GTX 1080, and now I am getting around 20.

I just installed the card and installed the new AMD drivers. What else do I need to do? I have seen people get it up to 30 MH/S. Even 25 would be fine for me though.

CPU: Ryzen 7 1700X
GPU: GTX 1080, RX 580
Motherboard: X370 Gaming Pro
PSU: 750 Watt
RAM: 16 GB DDR4

Solution
People getting 30 MH/s have probably flashed custom BIOSs optimized for mining. Also, there was an issue where AMD cards were slowly losing hashrate. This was fixed with the AMD compute beta driver I believe. The new AMD Adrenaline drivers (17.12.1) have an option to put the card into compute mode, which I think would also solve this problem.
