I currently run the latest driver from AMD, but ever since installing this card (it replaced a 6950 that had no issues) I get a high number of inconclusives, that usually all turn invalid. Can anyone recommend a driver they KNOW works with this card?

I see you are running SOG Version.
I would suggest to try nonSOG Version.
If i remember correctly the RX 480 is difficult for crunching.

It won't run Astropulse. The RX models will run those to end, and then these tasks won't validate. So don't run them.
Multibeam will run fine.

I have reinstalled Lunatics to exclude AP on the card. I did try Mike's suggestion about using non-SOG, but that caused me issues with MB (sticky, jerky cursor etc)m so staying with SOG, for the time being.

Thank you both for your helpful suggesyions.
