No "shaders" specified; interesting.  I'll check this out.

EDIT:  Also, it should be explained right here that you aren't using the newest "form" of config files, with profiles and pools.  Shouldn't matter though.

xI:320 just blew my card into SICK in about 15 minutes.

maybe u should try hamsi expand big 7, like his config.

bullus you don't have 290/Xs do you?  Yours are 280s and you run expand-big 4 right?

no I have 7950's and using expand big 4 also

what is hamsi expand big ? my value is 1 ... i've got some 7950 too, should i use 4 or 7 ?

so far I have this to offer on expand-big

At I:19 expand-big 1 you get 4M on a 290X
At I:19 expand-big 4 you get 3.4-3.6M on a 290X
Have not tried xI:32 (extremely low thread count) and expand-big 7 (extremely aggressive hamsi-expand)

So for Hawaii's I would recommend trying expand-big 1, for Tahitis/Pitcairn, expand-big 4

its only for x13 algo, so doesn't matter.

yes, i'm tried a new build of sgminer few days ago, but he is crashed after 60 sec, for now, if i'm not wrong should be everything fine.

Newest one fixed this in last 2 days.  Try getting the newest build from kenshirothefist's link or badman74
ok i am gonna start putting my builds for v5_0 here

if your running 270x's should you use expand big at all or leave it out ?

Try lower xi, i had the same with my 290x, but after i reduced xi from 144 to 32 (hashrate not hurt) - i have not seen any SEEK or DEAD.
sry for my bad english.

xI: 32 is WAY below I:19 how do you have good hashrates with that?

i dont know, but after i found that, i changed xi on my other rigs and this works perfect. Look at screenshot below:

I just tried this and it hard crashed my rig after 2 minutes 20 seconds.  I'll pass for now.  xI: of 320 works a bit better for tweaking.  Do you have shaders : 2816 specified?

ok this miner goes 30% faster ... but it also draws 30% more watts @ the wall  Wink
Yeah, a little more and x11/x13 will draw like script.

sry for my bad english.

xI: 32 is WAY below I:19 how do you have good hashrates with that?

I've mined Scrypt, Scrypt-N, and X13 for extended periods of time without errors. (2days or more)... so far the only algorithm that has given me SICK > DEAD cards is X11.  Keccak im not even sure if I have configured right, i get a pretty good hash rate but an unusually high amount of rejects.

I get SICK -> DEAD on x13 usually after having done x11 for an extended time, then flipping.   It doesn't require a hard boot, just a restart of the mining instance.

Flipping from X13 to X11 just made one GPU go SICK -> DEAD , and if i restart only the mining instance, the hashrate does not build up to its normal speed, it only goes to about 50-60% speed.  I have to reboot the OS and restart mining for it to work at full speed.   Sometimes just mining X11 does this too without any switching.
