Make service like this:

[Unit]
Description=XMR-stak service
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
GuessMainPID=no
LimitMEMLOCK=infinity
#Restart=on-failure
User=root
WorkingDirectory=/opt

#RX580 4G
ExecStartPre=-/opt/ohgodatool -i  0 --set-max-power 110 --set-fanspeed 55 --core-state 7 --mem-state 2 --volt-state 12 --core-clock 1440 --mem-clock 2100
ExecStartPre=-/opt/ohgodatool -i  1 --set-max-power 90  --set-fanspeed 55 --core-state 7 --mem-state 2 --volt-state 11 --core-clock 1430 --mem-clock 2050

ExecStart=/opt/xmr-stak/xmr-stak --config /opt/xmr-stak/config.txt --amd /opt/xmr-stak/amd.txt --cpu /opt/xmr-stak/cpu.txt --poolconf /opt/xmr-stak/pools.txt

ExecStopPost=-/opt/ohgodatool -i  0 --set-fanspeed 25
ExecStopPost=-/opt/ohgodatool -i  1 --set-fanspeed 25

And use service xmr start and service xmr stop
