Delete your old .bin and restart.
My conf for a 270 with 14.6rc2 driver
2.6Mh on x11
2.0Mh on x13
1.6Mh on x15
8.2Mh on nist5

Deleted .bin files, empty trash, reboot

C&P of your config (changed btc address XD sorry, and removed payment limits) give me per card:

2.0Mh on x11
1.6Mh on x13
0.8Mh on x15 (still crashed when trying to switch to another pool)
4.4Mh on nist5

What disto are you using? Are you using strictly cli or are you using gui?
I'm probably just gonna give in and leave things the way they are.

Edit: I appreciate your willingness to help, that is for sure!

I could do without the gui if I had a reliable way of getting to cli from outside of my house but I'm not sure how to do that. Right now I'm planning on using TeamViewer since I'm going to be on holiday for a month.

Any plans to incorporate the FRESH algo into the next build of this sgminer ? and im talking about the optimized FRESH algo kernel

also any plans on adding FRESH to nicehash ?

sure there is a difference, roughly 30% increase in hashrate. you have to update your drivers to 14.6 or ask someone to provide you with the kernel bin files compiled by sgminer on machine running 14.6 drivers. then you can use these kernel bins on mining rig with 13.12 drivers and get almost the same hashrate as with 14.6 drivers

I just did a fresh install with the 14.6 drivers and am still getting the same rates as before, even with a direct c&p your config.
I originally tried to just update but ran into problems hence the fresh install.

I even checked with
dmesg | grep fglrx | grep module
and it verified that I had fglrx 14.20.7 installed. (downloaded the 14.6beta driver right off of AMD's website)

Any ideas?

Edit: Additional details about my set up:
2 Sapphire 270x
Ubuntu 14.04 fresh install using unity desktop.
I'm focusing on x11 and x13 right now. x15 causes crashes no matter what I do. If this is all I can get nbd.

I'm running 13.12 drivers, was there much of a difference between 13.12 and 14.6 beta or were you ever on 13.12?
I'll go ahead and give the config a try before I update drivers just to see.

hello guys
do you know what is the port for Nist5 in trademybit?
i mean not the 7770 port but the one which works like 4010 (x11), 4011 (x13), 4012(x15)
is it 4013 for Nist5 ?
thanks for the info

I guess I will give this one last shot.

Anyone have a config for 270s?

I have PMed the two people I have seen mention 270s but no response from them. I seem to be getting rates that are way low based on one person's posts but I don't know if they are exaggerating or not.

So far per card I'm getting
x11 = 2mh/s
x13 = 1.5mh/s
x15 = 870kh/s (but locks up on pool switch or q so I don't use it)\
Nist5 = 4.6mh/s

All algos are doing what I can find as best at 1160/1500 with 2 threads at I 17.

on nicehash with undervolted 270s (core/mem clock @ 1040/1250MHz) running linux with 14.6 beta drivers i'm getting
x11 = 2.5 mh/s
x13 = 2.0 mh/s
x15 = 1.75 mh/s

with this config

While nist5 is the most profit algo my sgminer doesnt switch to it, still mining x15

f0=0.00 f2=0.00 f3=4.00 f4=3.00 f5=0.00 f6=3.50 f7=12.00

is there something wrong?

I think your 'f6=3.5' should be more like 'f6=2.6'
Keeping it at 3.5 will certainly keep you mining X15 too long.

I get 460-480MH with those two settings I specified for keccak; I would be interested if you experienced the same, at stock.

doesn't actually change anything for me other than I 13 makes the hash rate more unstable
the best i can do is 375-380mh/s before it throttles my clocks due to overtemp

Could someone share his config and speeds for 290x cards?

scrypt : 600kh/s
nscrypt : 325kh/s
x11 : 5.4mh/s
x13 : 4mh/s
x15 : 3.5mh/s
keccak : 350mh/s
nist5 : 16.5mh/s
this is with default clocks

You're coming in sort of low on a few algos, would you mind trying these settings and seeing if they boost performance on certain algos?

scrypt:

Quote

"thread-concurrency" : "16384"

HW errors occur for me
nscrypt:

Quote

"thread-concurrency" : "8192"

HW errors occur for me
keccak:

Quote

"thread-concurrency" : "32765"
"intensity" : "13"

Also, I noticed you're running varying intensities for x11/x13/x15, what happens when you peg them all to 19?

they ether stays the same or drop if i go above what i had set on intensity
TC is only used for scrypt/nscrypt, and it really doesn't matter for me as i cant keep my cards cool enough to tweak them more on scrypt/ncsrypt, also it never switches to them anyway
i may get more with keccak but haven't played with it in a while, I 13 actually gave me more rejects so i kept I 12
i did have HW errors on nscrypt that i could never seem to get rid of but as i said i don't ever really mine it anyway
