Topic: Newbie Needs Help with 7950....stales or stuck on startup (Read 880 times)
The configuration looks spot-on. I'd try a separate pool. I'm running 4x Radeon 7950's without a problem out-of-the-box via GUIMiner.
my 7950 overclocked runs at 620mh/s. guiminer works out of the box. Ive tried to play with flags but for me works best with default settings.
the thread concurrency seems a bit high.. but I have a lower end card..
Ugggghh Spoke too soon....
So it will run perfect for about 10 minutes....then it starts getting all stales (up to 20%) then my driver crashes...now the card never got over 75c
Here is my reaper and litecoin conf files:
kernel reaper.cl
save_binaries yes
enable_graceful_shutdown no
long_polling yes
device 1
mine litecoin
host ltc.kattare.com
port 9332
user Draxus.1
pass xxxxxx
protocol litecoin
worksize 256
vectors 1
aggression 20
threads_per_gpu 1
sharethreads 32
lookup_gap 2
gpu_thread_concurrency 21712

have you tried using reaper? I seem to have great results with my 7950s
I actually was just setting up reaper, I am getting about 510 khash/s with it and 0 stalls...so I guess GUIminer is my problem.
Would you mind posting your CONF file for it?
Here is mine, just wondering if I should change anything:
host ltc.kattare.com
port 9332
user Draxus.1
pass xxxxxxx
protocol litecoin
worksize 256
vectors 1
aggression 20
threads_per_gpu 1
sharethreads 32
lookup_gap 2
gpu_thread_concurrency 21712

You may want to try cgminer. There is a ton of info on easily setting it up to mine litecoin. I have x3 sapphire 7950 and I'm getting about the same hash with litecoin. 550-600~. The regected thing may have to do with the pool you're using. Or are you solo mining?
post your entire config so we can see where you went wrong.
Hey all,
I just got my sapphire HD7950 and hooked everything up. I am now having serious issues...
I am attempting to mine Litecoins, I got Guiminer script, I updated the drivers for my card from AMD's website, catalyst sweet 13.1
So if I do the Default High Intensity Setting I get a 530 Khash/s rate, but for my shares I had 27 accepts and 49 stales. I dropped to low intensity and got 286khash/sec and 9 accepted and 25 stalls.
Now this only worked with pooledbits mining site, if I try to connect to anyother mining site I get stuck at "starting..."
Any help greatly appreciated
