Try with 1 card disabled for fun?

Didn't help much.
It's frustrating knowing that I should be getting 2+mh per card, but am actually getting <1.6... I hate when things aren't as efficient as they could be.
What driver are you using?

AMD Catalyst 13.4 (12.104.0.0 March 28)

I think I had quite a few issues with the drivers/cards initially, so I'd be hesitant to change drivers.

should the focus be on hashing speeds or wu rate? i thought wu because that's what represents shares being submitted, am i wrong? would like to know what everyone else is getting for both settings. here's what i'm getting with my rigs:

1. 6 x msi 270: avg 6.6mhs and wu 0.092/m
2. 3 x asus 280x top: avg 6.175mhs and wu 0.087/m
3. 3 x sapphire tri-x 290: avg 6.728mhs and wu 0.088/m


again the 270 turn out to be the best option for me which was the same for scrypt mining. but the biggest improvement in terms of temps and power draw were for the 280x and esp the 290!

I made some experiments today, but G 2, TC 8192, I 13  is the best setting. Unlike scrypt, overclocking engine can increase hash speed much more.

It seems those are the best settings for me, as well. Although I changed G 2 to G 4 and it gave me like .02 more per card lol

Try g2 with i20 (I've had some actually run that way, don't ask me why, or how, just happened on like 2 rigs with 7970s). I don't usually even mention it but seems to be acting the same as those systems did for me

No dice. It's funny how all of these cards can be so different/finicky.

I'm running three Sapphire 7970s and can't get them over 1.6 mh each.
Also, sgminer won't load my gpu engine/mem or autofan settings.. neither through a config nor bat

I've tried the same config as you (with different engine settings), as well as many others.

Any ideas?
do you have the latest version of sph-sgminer?

Check engine clock in miner UI. Sometimes miner can not set correct frequency.

Thanks. I updated to the latest version and that has helped a great deal. Before I couldn't see temps or change engine clock/etc in UI, now I can. Also, it's now loading everything from .bats. However, I'm still topping out at 1.5xx mh per card.

I'll keep playing with the settings.. but it seems the 7970s should get similar results as the 280s with similar settings (since they're essentially the same cards, right?)

EDIT: Using the same settings I use for normal scrypt gets me max 1.5xx mh with x11 currently, whereas those settings get me 730-740mh when running scrypt.

Maybe try a g1 setting with 24k ish thread concurrency and i20

That gives me .05 mh more per card.  Cheesy
G 2, TC 8192, I 13 has given me the best performance when running scrypt with these 7970s, but I'm inexperienced with x11 and I'll definitely try whatever you suggest.

Have you (or anyone else reading) seen any difference when adjusting raw/experimental intensities?

Everyone else seems to be getting 2+mh easy.. apparently I'm doing something wrong somewhere lol


Don´t running X11 mining after scrypt. It can decrease speed. If You mined some scrypt coin, try reboot PC before running sph-sgminner. Or try reset GPU with MSI AfterBurner (litle change some setting and click Apply).

I did restart and try fresh to no avail.

my argument was that is stupid to say "it's a litecoin clone" because then, they are basically all bitcoin clone, which is not the point, we can differentiate them and don't call them a clone if they offer something new, but hiro doesn't offer anything new, is just a pure clone

also anonimity will push bitcoin forward, i see it as a good thing

if you really want to mine something energy efficient other than darkcoin, there is heavycoin
so the list of coins you support is better than all others? Should run for president.

Let me guess, you bought in heavycoin ipo and now suffering a loss?

no i don't buy scamcoin lol

i like heavycoin only because is even better in energy saving , compared to x11 algo

and i only support one coin here(btc aside), huntercoin

And my argument was that your claim about clones not doing so well has no historical backing.

Why should I mine this instead of Darkcoin? =)
darkcoin with its dynamic reward algorithm makes it a poor choice for miners. It will only be good for miners if price increases even more drastically than with fixed reward coins, which makes it more un probable to suceed at higher hash rates.

Another reason is that darkcoin focuses on its anonymity, while that all sounds cool, for mainstream, it would be very hard to get accepted because it's use would be seen as malicious because honestly, who needs to hide their money transfer THAT MUCH? Those who wants to do bad thing.

Basically, this is a coin that is the best replacement for scrypt.

all good, but clone are not seen well, and this is just a clone...
first, this was forked from litecoin. Second, darkcoin is as much a clone of anything else. Third, the reasons I mentioned are inherent no matter what.

darkcoin is not a clone of anything, there was no other coin using x11


a change in mining algorithm makes it not a clone? :S. And if that's what you mean by clone, I can name multiple coins that had success besides litecoin. ..

Also, ultracoin performs better than yacoin, which was the first with scrypt-jane

if you want to play this game, then litecoin is a bitcoin clone too, frankly they are all Bitcoin clone

also darkcoin is anonymous, even if you hate it, guess what? bitcoin will be too
well no, I'm following your lead, you said darkcoin is not a clone because it was the first with X11. It'd the same as saying litecoin is not a clone of bitcoin. You would have a hard time arguing with anyone that litecoin isn't a clone because it has a different algorithm, yet that was your argument?

And people got hyped about darkcoin and it's super anonymity.  But I said already, it's a double edged sword, mainstream will always dismiss darkcoin because of the inherent fact that nothing legal requires that much anonymity.

So some say it's an innovation, others will say it's gonna hinder. For those, there's hirocoin.
