Downloaded the sources for diablominer and compiled them. ~650MH/s with the default diablominer settings and the card OC'd @ 1125/975MHz:



~530MH/s at standard clocks:


Fucking awesome.

Should be interesting to see the power draw running at 650Mh/s. $/Mh ratio still won't be right for a while but the reduced power draw could make up for it.

LOL. This really is strange. Before people were saying this sucks at mining because of CGN but I see it is quite good performance.

Before people were saying it pulls much more power to hash but now it seems it pulls less. WTF ? LOL. Where is the truth at ?

Here's a screenshot of the last few hours' worth of mining.



I'm downloading diablo's miner to give it a shot.

Is dat some git log? Cheesy

Well assuming all the history of comments about the 7xxx are in any way valid then what the OP is posting seems to be quite expected as well.
For the past months I've read that the 7xxx will not be much faster at mining - but it WILL be much lower in power consumption.

1536 Stream Processors would certainly not mean a major difference in the hashing number unless the new Stream Processors were somehow much better.

However the die size drop to 28 nm will mean a power consumption drop.

So can the OP go out NOW and buy a watt meter and tell us what the watt figures are.
Unfortunately you have missed the most important expected feature of the 7xxx series and that is the power consumption drop.

Tick tock tock ! Let us see some screens.
No worries, AMD's party vans already showed up outside and removed the problem.

DiabloD3 has already made mods to his miner for GCN, I am sure he would love to have your feedback on how well it works. See this link for the commit in question.

Well said. +1

This noob ain't tricking us with these fake BS results. Next time they claiming a 7970 running at 2000 MHz and getting 800 Mhash/s. LOL

Totally agree on that Death and Taxes,
Since dec 12 - 2011 many shops got some stock for initial sale with the intention to start selling at 9 januari
breaking this rule and amd finds out will be bad for those shop owners caus amd will not quickly give them new supply
With the 9 jan soon to happen the initial prices will be high as allways
But i think they are going to drop soon if amd really gets enough shipped to every shop

I heard from some shops they already got some big piles stocked up, so seems amd got it all kinda done well.
If the initial stocks of the cards sells out quick and amd can keep up with demand, the prices will soon fall to a more acceptable price.

Because sure as hell many hardcore gamers want to get their hands on these very well performing cards

And then the fun starts with the custom build models with better cooling and higher clocks which will this cards make a clear winner
easy overclocks 1100 to 1400 mhz are reported and reviews and some seem to got it at near 1700 mhz

530 euro price is too high. 7970 still sucks at power draw and price ATM. 5XXX still the best for now.

It is (pre) launch day.  What did you expect.  Huge discounts?  The price of a video card never goes up.  They only go down and thus launch day is always the most expensive day for any card's lifecycle.

I think people have gotten unrealistic expectations from deeply discounted end of life 5xxx products.  The 7000 series was never going to be "cheap". 

If AMD was going to sell it at a discount why even release it.  Just save the tens of millions in R&D and just keep selling lower cost 6000 series.  Smiley

Just ignore them.  There is no reason for you to be lying.  What is the angle?  How could you profit from a lie?  The card officially releases in 4 days so I expect to see at least one other member posting about it in the coming week.


Agreed.
