I just purchased a pair of 6990 (2x) video cards from the same owner on Ebay and installed them to a new rig.  By comparing the total number of shares submitted, these two "used" 6990s submitted at 50% less shares of what the two new 6990s.

Both rigs have the same setting...

I'm just wondering what is the deal... I didn't screw in the video cards properly or what?  Or did previous owner properly fked up both cards?
Did you figure this out?

Are you running both 6990 in one box?

If yes, you have four miners going? What are their settings?

More info plz! Temperatures of each core, clock and mem settings, what miners and overclocking tools, if any you are using would be helpful. If you can get a screenshot of the miners running, with GPU-Z showing that would be helpful.

Is that a card or a GPU problem? As in - are both GPU slower or just one? DId you properly tune them`?

Yep, one instance for each gpu.  Just want to make sure that I screwed the card in properly... since it's running so it looks like a hardware default problem.

I take it you're running 2 instances on both cards ?

they're dual gpu so you'll need 1 instance for each gpu
