There is no 'maximum' we should all be doing the same speed on the same kernels at the same clocks as long as we aren't limited by TDP. This is why your logic is bat shit insane, you don't even have any idea how mining actually works. There is no way for someone to do faster with the same hardware unless their clocks/tdp/drivers/OS are different and in weird cases memory types (such as with Ethereum). Most cases Windows 7/8 are all the same, occasionally W10, but usually it's just slower.
Which is why on the last page rednow corrected himself and fell inline with speeds everyone else is getting. The only other thing that could possible effect it is intensity, but default intensity is almost always spot on.
This completely puts aside that you're comparing apples to oranges. rednoW isn't magically going to get the same speed as another guy on the other page running at 290Mhs, nor is it magically going to be 5% higher unless everything I posted above is the same, but it isn't... Mentioning hashrate without clocks or other information is dumb... even more so when people try to 'pad' their scores.
i know that you actually shot crap on purpose just to talk with someone, but you are again wrong on everything, if someone can do 290 with heavy oc, this must be considered as example, and the % or boost should be added on top of that
not on the lowest possible, that would be dumb like your post, so please go ahead and stop with this bullshit propaganda that you are doing
My test card is this one:
http://www.inno3d.com/products_detail.php?refid=248The opensource does 245MHASH on the default clock wich is around 1830
In the latest mod I have increased that to 260 MHASH on the same clock, but then the card start to trottle and the speed decline. Normally overvolting / increase TDP will fix this, but the single 8 pin connector on the card is the bottleneck. The pascal kernel is still in development. New hardware, new possibilities.
Looking forward to it, thank you
@bensam: indeed, but regarding profitability, as you can see tonight it's a real pain to guarantee something. Good for us
@amph: I've got 30 of them so I can talk due facts, and statistics. On average 265 it's even an high standard for an overclocked 1070
Proof (Open source 1.8.1 from tpruvot)
it does not amtter how many you have, you just need one to test, and my g1 gaming 1070 can easily do 276, i can post a screen if you want
so saying that 265 is the base value is plain wrong
and i'm not even using your core
