Hi!
Ive just created table with hashrate and power consumption for most popular amd videocards, please help me fix it.
PM me or write here if have another value(s) for any card.

Code:
----------------------------------------
 Model                 Sol/sec   Power 
 7950                  270       250   
 7970                  292       270   
 R9 270                180       180   
 R9 280x               323       300   
 R9 290                340       250   
 R9 290 flash to 390   370       250   
 R9 380                200       200   
 R9 390                411       250   
 R9 390x               440       280   
 RX 470 4Gb            299       150   
 RX 480                330       150   
 R9 Fury Nano          435       275   
 R9 Fury X             455       275   
 R9 Fury Nitro         470       275   

I think your R9 nano power is too high. It is about 200W for 435.

7950 depends. I have 2 doing 285 with 160 watts and a gigabyte doing 320 with the same watts.fury nitro does 485 at 1040 oc.  With clock speed does 465 @ 250 watts. Haven't measured the oc watts

Edit: make it 500 @ 1190. 55c with fan at 65%

Model           Sol/sec      Power
7970M 2GB    145           100

A 7970M is equivalent to a 7870 desktop clocked at 850/1200 and I run these at stock speeds as my laptops cooling power is limited and the memory will not clock even 5 more Mhz
Settings for mining are all standard but intensity is set to -i 3.
[EDIT]
I am also running drivers 17.3.1, sometimes mining will only start on one card or one of the cards is very low, around 50 sol/sec and to fix it:
1. I stop mining.
2. Stop MSI Afterburner or any monitoring software I have.
3. Enable Crossfire.
4. Disable Crossfire.
5. Startup Mining and I have full speed on both cards again.

I have never tried re-enabling my hardware monitors as it just adds complexity I don't want to deal with.

This is my first post, but I have been using this forum for a while.  I currently have an Alienware M18 R2 with two 7970m's. These cards are rated at 100W a piece and I am currently pulling right around 300Sol/s with 12.4 but I had to make a configuration change.  When I moved from 12.2 to 12.4 the default intensity was changed from 3 to 4, as my cards only have 2GB of memory on them this intensity was too high and I dropped to about 200Sol/s. For ALL revision before this that I have used, the intensity was set to 3 by default.  So look to see if your intensity has changed if you are getting lower Sol/s then you were with earlier revisions.  Also, going from 12.2 to 12.4 with intensity set at 3 I went from about a peak of 285 Sol/s to, as stated above, about 300 Sol/s.

Thank you Claymore for all your work and I gladly donate that dev Fee. Smiley

There is no change in speed but it is more stable.

It is Marginally faster on my Tahiti, but i don't really see differences on Curacaro, Tonga, RX, Hawaii.

Same results here.

Maybe we need to change the clocks to get the best ratio.

Hello,
I'm using cent OS 7.2, which has openssl 1.0.1e installed.
First it shows no /lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 and /lib64/libssl.so.1.0.0 found.
I fixed this by creating symbol links to 1.0.1e so files.
But when running, it shows errors:
./zecminer64: /lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: version `OPENSSL_1.0.0' not found (required by ./zecminer64)
./zecminer64: /lib64/libssl.so.1.0.0: version `OPENSSL_1.0.0' not found (required by ./zecminer64)

How to fix this?
Or will change this miner to be compatible with different openssl versions?

Thanks,
Jonathan

What is your intesity setting i am using sapphire r9 280x and MSI 7970 lighting and have found that if I go for intesity higher than -i 2 my rigs start going unstable (restarting,hanging etc..) for the 7970 with downvolt to 1069 mV on the GPU core, on the r9 280 x I can do -i 4 and be stable with the downvolt of 980 mV.

7970 downvolt stable -i 2 get 290 to 300 h/s on claymore 12.4
r9 280 downvolt stable -i 4 get 290 to 300 h/s on claymore 12.4 

All cards are running asm option
Hope this helps

This did help get me where I wanted to be. I was able to use -i 6 for my 7970's and they are stable so far.

Thank you.
Hi,
so you undervolt them and now they are stabe with more then -i 2 ?

No, I made changes that djolep07 made me think about.

I have voltage set to about the same as djolep07.

I have this in my config:

-zpool equihash.usa.nicehash.com:3357
-zwal (my wallet address).r10
-zpsw z
-allpools 1
-i 6
-asm 1

(I had -i 8. Even though the miner sets intensity to 7 that is to high and it made everything slower. I believe that was the problem.)

I didn't have -asm 1 in my config. I think the miner was automatically using it anyway but now I set it to use it for sure.

Additionally, I noticed that my start.bat file didn't have the extra parameters in it anymore. I may have missed that when I did a previous update.

So now it has all this in it:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
ZecMiner64.exe

Getting a nice 300+ H/s from each card now.
So you are using more than -i 2 on 7970 cards and it is not crashing ?

Thats correct. I am using -i 6 and it is completely stable.

Help! What can be? Installed windows 10 driver 16.3 RAM 16 GB motherboard Gigabyte 970 DS3P 4 video cards R9 390 power supply 1600 watts.
Putting the miner Claymore and Optiminer in 1 or 2 hours is the reset of the miner completely, what can be? Thank you  Huh

hi guys
just a quick question
which 1 should i get

powercolor r9 fury x  @$270
msi 7990  @$250


i know 7990 is faster for zec. but fury is newer

help pls

@claymore thanks for the update my cards are more stable in this version



R9 fury on Newegg for $232

im from Philippines
that would be $232 + $40 for shipping

with latest release whats the performance on Fiji(Fury/Nano) at default clock speed? i am looking to compare with a RX/R9 3xx

R9-Nano
Default clock 1000/500
430-440 sols/s
Beast of a card - excellent for ZEC mining.

R9-Fury X.... supersonic at ~450-460 sols/s
RX480 ... at best 300 sols/s (RX cards best for ETH mining)
R9-390... very good ~380-390 sols/s
Thanks for the information
then you didnt get an increase for the Fiji GPUs? i guess you maxed the power limit on the R9 Nano? I wonder why R9 Nano doesnt reach same performance a Fury X if both share similar setup

Nano vs Fury X -- big difference.
Both are fast cards for ZEC because of the HBM memory.
Fury X is the big brother. Still the fastest in the R9 class cards and it comes with its own cooling system.
Nano is small card but power packed and consumes less watts. Hard to get this card used - expensive too.
If you are using Linux - IMHO, best to go with Optiminer v1.7; otherwise Claymore v12.4 for Windows based rigs.

Which card would you recommend the nano or fury Im looking to retire my 270s and add something to my 390/290 also are you running you 390 at stock clocks it seems to get mine at 400 I pushed it to 1150

I have 390s but run them undervolted -100mV and slightly OC - no point pushing this card - it can easily OC but its a power hogger.

If you have money then Fury X. But this is not practical. If you plan only for a few rigs, and want a screamer of a rig -- then the king of the hill is Fury X or even GTX-1080 (ZEC mining only). Nano is good too but its expensive.

But if you are planning a farm, I rather have a 6 or 7 GPU rigs with RX 480s or RX470s -- while they are not great in hash but reasonable enough, consume less power, newer card so better resale value -- put them on Linux and they mine stable. If you serious on mining -- you need stable well balanced mining rigs.

BTW, I noticed that cards with lower asics value has better downvolt results.

Lol it looks like that. I don't trust this "asic quality" bs anyways. I mean the asics ARE different, but whatever gpu-z shows has no meaning/use for me.
Depending on the algo (starting with ethash and getting the best out of cards) you can run core and mem from 854mv
BTW, I noticed that cards with lower asics value has better downvolt results.

Cards with lower Asics have VRM's that signals higher voltage then cards with higher asics. Cards with higher asics their VRM signals lower voltage, so lowering the voltage do tend to make problems. So that is why, cards with lower asics works better with undervolting Smiley Cant' explain better then this in layman's terms Smiley

- But, all summed up, the total power consumption is equivalent in both cases, wheter you think that the card with lower asic can be undervolt lower....basically you get the same result as the cards with higher asics, ...in the end, the power consumption is the same. Wink
