I didn't know how to work the question properly, so I found no answers.
A very quick one though;
I am using the Claymore Miner in a pool of choice. I know the M option gives hashrates of individual cards. However if anyone has mined XMR you would notice every so often when a new job is received, you get a hash rate reading. that reading when the new job is received is at least 120-150 Hash LOWER than the combined M option individual card Hash readings, averaged out over, say 5 iterations.
Any suggestions as to which is correct?
The main reason I want to find the info out is because I am tweaking power consumption to the ideal hash. Optimal profits and all that jazz
do you read the manual before you use the software and how to set up the software so its work properly with your hardware? if you read, then if something is not work then i think you need to read more about the manual because the result from each miners could be different although they using the same hardware, same software and same pool.
