Live Episode 14 - RX460 4G live testing, XFX 580 GTR OC+ and more! Ethereum Mining Live!

Can the RX460 4G Mine Ethereum?

Quick BBT Review and in progress update of the PowerColor RX460 4GB Card

NOTICE: You can NOT mine Ethereum with the 2G model

Card in reference: PowerColor Red Dragon RX460 4GB - http://amzn.to/2qweVnQ
Alternative Card: Gigabyte RX460 4GB OC Edition - http://amzn.to/2qwqzyX

BIOS MOD for the PowerColor Red Dragon 4GB RX460 (MICRON MEMORY): 
1500T timing: https://ufile.io/nig5s
1750T timing: https://ufile.io/2hedd
Original BIOS: https://ufile.io/ihl85

GPU Clock: 1112 / Mem Clock to 1880 = 13.5mh
GPU Clock: 1300 / Mem Clock to 1910 = 13.75mh (questionable stability for the longterm)

Unlocked shaders should yield another 0.5mh; should bump it just over 14mh to 14.3mh
