Topic: 3% faster mining with phoenix+phatk for everyone - page 3. (Read 36831 times)
Did the job there too with a 6850, solid 2.5% increase. Thanks!
will give this a try after i learn to setup command line miner... thanks!
Got the expected bump on my 6950, thanks!
is it possible this doesnt work on nVidia cards? both with OpenCL miner & CUDA miner i'm still getting the exact same hashrate, even after restarting Guiminer.
or am i missing something? (using windows 7 btw)

Sorry, this only works for ATI cards that support BFI_INT. In general, nVidia cards are much worse for mining, so I'm not sure if there's effort at all going into making nVidia's stuff mine faster...

Went from 380 to 391 on my 5870 @900MHz.
Nice work!
Nice work!
Good job. Thanks a lot!
awesome thank you!
OC'd 6970 went from 400 to 417MHash/s. Sent some mBTC your way!
Worked for me as well. Thanks.
5870
970\365
430,5 -> 439,4 ~2.07%
W7x64 SP1, Phoenix 1.5 + Phatk, APP 2.4, Catalyst 11.6
THANX A LOT

my GPU usage (and thus hashrate) has always fluctuated like a small sine wave from 99% - 90% , after this patch, they all stay a straight line 99% , so that's way more than a 3% increase in hashrate for me.
What's weird, mine went from 90%-96% to 96% straight but the added performance adds 1.5C to the temperature, I might have to clock down a bit to get tot he previous 90C stable line, which means I am forfeiting the benefits of the above optimization. At least I use less energy, the Earth will thank us all...Same here, actually. I was ok with 6870 overclocked to 1000 MHz, but after the change it became unstable so I had to go down to 975, which is kinda sad. Yet, I blame it on poor ventilation in my case, so may be I'll get it running at 1000 again, eventually
That means your 1000 MHz core wasn't actually stable to begin with, but you were getting by because it wasn't being used fully. After the patch it's getting fully loaded which puts more stress on it; Because of that, at 975 MHz with the new patch you might still be getting a higher overall hashrate than before the patch at 1000 MHz
How does one get an accurate reading of their rates? My rates seem to jump randomly between 363 to 367 on one of my 5850 and 361 to 364 on my other 5850. Should they both be the same? Should they be jumping this much?

It depends on the mining software you use.I use phoenix and it by default averages every 10, so I increased this (-a 50). It takes longer to settle down, but once there it will not jump about as much.
Wow, have to try, thanks for sharing.

I run headless w/ aggression=19, so my hash rate is pretty stable.

Thanks for sharing, it worked great for me. About 2.5% it looks like!

Just run the card with open Case.
Also a good improvement is add 2x 120mm 10db-Silent Fans, that cool your card more Silent.
I run my 6870 @ 1005Mhz , 60 degrees Celsius , 60% Fanssped (card fan) @ 302Mhash/s.
(now with speedfix @ 311Mhash)
Thanks for sharing, it worked well for me.
