Topic: collection for cgminer 7970 [Card as been sent! THANK YOU EVERYONE] - page 2. (Read 9935 times)

Hmm I usually run my cards flat out, and I'm pretty sure the current cgminer kernel being 9 months old isn't going to remotely come near the diablo speeds but I can have a play... brb

Thanks very much everyone. Arrived, shiny and all 
Took a lot of fluffing around to get it going thanks to AMD fail. Had to make sure the 7970 was in the first slot and manually edit xorg to make it work. The older driver detected the 6970s only and the newer experimental 79xx driver only detected the 7970. Then I did a little overclocking experimenting and found a nice sweetspot at 1200/1050 (it has a -150 gpu-memdiff limit).
See if you can spot the 7970
This is with an unmodified 2.2.3 with its defaults so that's what you can expect from cgminer at this stage at those clock speeds till I can wedge in a faster kernel.

Ck: can you do the comparisons with the clock not set so high. at 1200 they run pretty hot with a high fan, also if you just do down about 50 on the clock, you can reduce the voltage down to 1120 or so.
I am currently running at volt: 1100 clock: 1100 650 Mhash diablo

Awesome awesome awesome 
As you may have seen I've done some preliminary work to the git tree since this collection started anyway so that cgminer will run at least satisfactorily on 7970 if not optimally just yet.
Thanks to everyone who donated

I believe 100 BTC at the time of the first post would have been around 650-660. BTC/USD has dropped/fluctuated a bit since then...

Hmm I thought the first post said 100 BTC was the amount required ...

wow, thank you everyone. will update the list soon.

I see another 20BTC since I last reconciled. As soon as my next transaction clears, I'll send the 10BTC to match it.

I just sent 5 BTC.

jjiimm_64 if you are still coming up short let me know, I will happily help cover any shortfall - I dont think any of us want our donations back
ckolivas joined Ozcoin in the early days of both cgminer and Ozcoin, I know first hand the effort he has put in to help ALL of us optimise our miners and earn the maximum number of Bitcoins/day our hardware is capable of.
dig deep folks this guy has spent countless hours helping us, this card will enable him to volunteer more hours and help the community more
every 0.01Btc helps, for those that can afford more - well that helps more

Love you all so far. Thanks!
I'm pretty sure the existing dual card code new in cgminer 2.2+ will be easy to extend to 7990 once it's out.

1)ckolivas should be rewarded for his hard work by doing more hard work on the 7900 series
2)I fully intend to tear some 7990s up when they come out, and having cgminer already working on the 7970 cards would be nice.
