Have a nice day.
i use phoenix rising v1.3 =p
is there a problem with running it on win7 64 bit? *boggle*
yeah, you really shouldn't have card >80oC for extended periods of time
Just open the case, buy some honeywell fan for $15 off newegg, and it shouldnt go above 70oC unless your ambient temp is over 90oF or so (even with GPU fans at 50%)

i use aoclbf to run phoenix
Damnit I was too slow, was at work -.-. Diablominer afaik is currently the only miner that supports 7970
wow, anything over 80 and I get very nervous. I start downclocking and downvolting to get any card below 80C
Why?
From everything I have read, mid-80's is fine for GPU's......
I will have to lower the ambient temp in the rooms and see if I can get it down that way.

Milk was a terrible choice. (had to say it)
84 is what I am running on the 69xx series which I have been told is a safe temp (89C is safe for 24/7) so I would imagine it is fine for the 79xx series. Please check the documentation for the card to ensure this is indeed a safe temp as it is new and might have different operating limits. I know NVidia cards have lower maximum/operating temperatures and 84 would definitely cause my old nvidia card to crash.

got them to 1.3 GH/z @ 1075 core.
Not sure pushing them any further will be worth it.

Nice. I would wait to see how far others can push their cards before I pushed it too much further myself. I know beyond 100Mhz overclock i need to increase voltage or the system locks up. The stock clock speeds on my OC edition 6950 are 830 but I can get 947 stable through afterburner if I turn my memory speeds down. Lowering your memory speeds should lessen the thermal load on your GPU and drop your temps, increasing the lifespan.
1075 seems like it should definitely safe as long as your thermals stay low. I made a custom fan profile in afterburner to keep my card cool.
ther are holding at 84 degrees.....seems pretty good to me.

Is that per card or between 2?
If that is each then all I have to say is wow!
If that is each then all I have to say is wow!
between 2. Now I am getting about 600 MH/s per card with core at 1000
This is very good to know. You should be able to get more if you find the right settings (correct vectors, worksize, agression). If I were you I would keep playing around until you hit an optimal hash rate. I think in the post about 3x7970 in the mining hardware forum they found a better vector for the GCN in the 79xx.
Before optimization at overclock I would barely be scratching 300Mhash but with the correct settings I get 387 steady out of my 6950. With optimizations at stock I was getting 330Mhash so this can give you some idea of what percentage boost to expect if it overclocks in a similar manner.
Keep us posted on your numbers.

I think i should get some and feel very ripped off by that. You were clickign on the file and it was disappearing when you started this thread. I showed you that and he merely beat me to the syntax.
Agreed. I will split it.....very fair point.

Purely out of simplicity you should probably try GUI miner and you can run the phoenix miner. I found the phatk kernel option to be the most efficient.
For a standalone miner I use the following flags: -k phatk poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=12 worksize=128 FASTLOOP=false
For mining in the background and still being able to watch movies and such I lower the aggression to 5.
FYI I am mining with a 6950.

I use GUI miner for everything.....but I just got the 7970's in the mail, and they wont run with GUIminer.....
Sounds like you are going to be having some fun. I dont think you use the BFI_INT vectors for the 7xxx series there is a different vector protocol to use.
If you are trying to run the latest phoneix miner it wont run under my Win7 64 bit either and it gives me code errors. I have to use the older one which is fine by me since i get a lot anyways.
Any ideas on how the boys currently running the 7000 series are pulling it off?
You might need Phoenix 1.7.3 by the looks of it. When you tried GUIminer did it not show up as a device or did it just not mine? If it didnt mine you can select the miner manually as a custom miner.
I prefer to run my DOS miner from the control+r line with all the parameters because it will save all the parameters for next time you want to run it and you will not be setting the directory every time.
I am not sure how this bounty will work now that others got involved but I was first so I think that has to count for something.

Device=0 is good if he has 1 card for 1 miner. the BFI_INT I read are not good for 7xxx
the usage should be phoenix -k phatk -u http://user:[email protected]:8332 worksize=128 aggression=13
You would also add whatever vectors work best on 7xxx series

No need to mess with cmd.exe.
1. Create a txt file in your phoenix root folder (where phoenix.exe is located)
2. add your login, pass, server. etc there: example for deepbit -
4. Run your cmd file.
5. PROFIT!
P.S. phatk2 working fastest for radeons, at least for mine 5770 does.

You need to run cmd.exe then run the file from location within dos
I must be doing it wrong.....what is the proper command line? Once I am in the directory where the executable is stored.
You can run the file itself in DOS and it will explain all the flags. Personally I did not find any additional hashing power by running in DOS vs Guiminer.
I do some CPU mining on the side with my 6 core and my command from the run screen is:
c:\bitcoin-miner.exe -u user -p pass -o http://pool.ABCPool.co:8332 -g no -t 5
Please note this is Ufasoft miner i believe and not phoenix but it is the same idea.

The other option is to press Control+r and select the miner path, using the correct syntax on your username/password and server. Dont forget to add the server port address or it will not connect.
Phoenix and almost all miners are DOS based so if you run it by clicking on it the options will quickly display and disappear as you experienced.

Having serious issues getting Phoenix to run in Windows 7. The screen pops up, then immediately disappears.
I am sure I could spend hours researching this on the forums, but I would rather just pay someone to give me a quick tutorial.
First person to give me the correct procedure to successfully launch Phoenix on my system gets the bounty. THANKS!
EDIT: will also reward the bounty to anyone who can help me get Diablo running instead. Either or.
Bounty has been awarded!
