maybe tonga with modified bios?

I didn't modified bioses for tongas because my cards don't have dual switch bios. My Tahitis and Polaris are all modified.

Me either, I have stock bios on all my 380x cards. That could be the difference, hopefully Dr_Victor can share the details of his setup with us.

^You aren't only one with Tonga.

It's true that this chip is inferior than Tahiti's, but man 160 hash/s is pretty low. Make it at least 220-230 h/s.
I have 220 with R9 380 (w/o 'x') on v.12.

How do you reach 220 h/s? The only way I've been able to achieve that rate is by running optiminer with my Gigabyte Radeon R9 380x 4GB OCed to the 1080/1550 with the 15.12 driver. The same setup with Claymore only produces 196 - 200 h/s for me. I can't use optiminer though, it constantly BSODs Windows 10 on my box or the optiminer thread hangs and has to be restarted. This happens to me every 2-3 hours, which is why I have stayed loyal to Claymore, it's just more stable for me. Please share how your achieving 220 h/s with a Radeon R9 380 on Claymore v12. Thanks!

Say whaaaaaaaat? Cheesy

Can you please post your .bat file?

And which version of 380? 2 or 4gb?

Thanks.

It looks like there's at least 4 of us with Tonga chipsets who have replied to this thread. Claymore can you please see about making some improvements for this chipset? Sending a little love towards the "budget" miners using Tonga cards would be much appreciated. These cards really are capable of a lot more speed. Thanks again for all the hard work you do for the community!

And much much more people out of btc talk. Smiley

I personally know a few guys who have more than 50 Tongas in mining farm.

Everyone who have problems with electricity and have tahitis gpu, sell them and buy new tongas (no money for polaris).

Claymore's Performance is Up, but is Profitability Up with the degradation of the ZEC Price?

Pleas up speed r9 380  Cry r9 380 4gb memory have 190 h/s, in game testing is  10 to 15 percent less R9 280, 280 but we 295 h/s Undecided

R9 380 has a 256 bit memory bus, while the R9 280 has a 384 bit bus.
Thats why is hashing faster, not much you can do about it.

no please noooo!!! Cry Cry Cry

My fury dropped to about 200 hash on -i 8, 300 hash-i 7, and increased to 420 hash from ~400 on -i 6.

I was hitting 400~ on 11.1 on -i 8.

Thanks for the work clay Wink

This is on win7 15.12

hmmmmm Actual submitted shares 100 hash. Went back to 11.1.

For me v12 is slover than optiminer. 4x r9 270x 740 on claymore while 780 on optiminer. Sad

Ver 12 is far more heavily tied to ASM and running ASM correct drivers than earlier versions.

You should make the -li 1 default. It does have a major impact on temperature and I guess power usage with no meaningful decrease on hashrate. In fact Tahiti and Hawaii have no hashrate decrease at all. Ellesmere shows a decrease of 4 or 5 hashes.

I have been experimenting with all the -i switches to lower down intensity/heat without too much impact on hash, and I got the same results like the above.

-li 1 gives me more less same hash but temps are down (not great as great as XMR mining, but good enough temps reduction).

My Nanos and 390s are doing very well with v12 on Linux.

I left the RX480 mining on ETH to compensate the drop in ZEC profitability.

It will be great if we can have an update on your XMR / Cryptonight miner.

XMR profitability is better than ZEC, and slightly lower than ETH.

Afternote: the hash does gets lower over time -- so -li will impact hash as per expected.

I can confirm bug with wrong hashrate if you use "-li" or "-ttli" options. These options add delays after every GPU round, so GPU is free for some time and therefore it becomes cool. But v12 measures GPU round time not including these delays so you see same hashrate. I will fix it in next update. This bug was added during porting miner to Linux, I don't remember exact version number.

Did you experience significantly lower temperature and/or lower power consumption? I never used low intensity mode and can't test my rigs now with "-li 1" parameter.

I dont know about it. Tried -li 1 and it does really improve temps while keeping the hashrate the same, but now pool shows much less that before...
