I had similar problem, it was in bitcoin pools side and soon as i switched to different pool it started accepting shares.

I don't think its the pool.

If I mine with the 7970 alone it hashes and gets shares accepted.

If I mine with the 6950 alone it hashes and get shares accepted.

The problem is if I mine with both the 7970 and 6950, the 7970 does not get any shares accepted.

I can fix this temporarily by setting 7970's GPU Thread to 2. However, The hash rate goes from 600+ to under 400 for the 7970.

Hmm I have a 7970 and multiple 6950's running.  Could you give what configs you are using?

Are you running the 7970 and 6950 on 1 rig also?

What is your configuration / miner that you are using and the settings?

Thank you sir.

Hmm I have a 7970 and multiple 6950's running.  Could you give what configs you are using?

I'm using GUI Miner Scypt litecoin edit

using CG Miner as my miner


I pick the default CG Miner 7970
Thread Concurrency 8192
Vectors 1
GPU Threads 1
Worksize 256
Intensity 18

At this setting it runs fine, 600-650 hashes BUT NO SHARES ACCEPTED

Now same thing,

CG Miner 7970
Thread Concurrency 8192
Vectors 1
GPU Threads 2
Worksize 256
Intensity 18

Only difference is changing GPU thread to 2.


NOW it works shares are accepted, BUT it works at 200-400 hashes basically a HUGE drop in performance.

The other card meanwhile, the 6950 also in the same computer, is running perfectly with no other tweaks, stock completely, no overclocking or other modifications.

Just wanted to add on to help people understand what I need help with.


Scenario 1:

7970 Mining 1 Card only -  600+ hashes, accepted shares, PERFECT NO PROBLEM

Scenario 2:

2 Cards running
7970- 600+ hashes, NO shares accepted 0%
6950 - 400+ hashes, shares accepted, everything fine on this part

Scenario 3:

I changed the GPU Thread for 7970 from 1 to 2.
7970 - 200 to 400 hashes, shares accepted now
6950 - 400+ hashes, no changes made to the 6950 settings.


What I am trying to achieve is:
7970 - 600+ hashes with accepted shares
6950 - 400+ hashes with accepted shares.

Hope this is clear.

Thanks

Hi all,

I have a computer with 2 cards in it. A 7970 and a 6950.

I am running GUI Miner CG Miner lite coin edit and am mining litecoins from a pool.

Heres the problem, when I run and mine on both I get the results

7970: 600+ hashes
6950: 400+ hashes

The problem is for the 7970 the shares are not being accepted on the pool while the 6950 is just fine.

I found one solution was to change the GPU Thread from 1 to 2 for the 7970. Shares started being accepted but another problem occured.
The 7970 started running between 200-400 hashes.

Any ideas or help greatly appreciated.
