Title: Just got my cards in the mail!
Post by: Kennji on April 22, 2013, 08:28:04 PM
Two 7850.

One gigabyte and one Asus.

I am getting 250 mhash out of the asus and 280 mhash out of the gigabyte.

Anyone know any good flags for GUIMiner for them?

Or should I just use CGMiner?  I hear a lot of good about CGMiner.

Thanks!!!!

must use -v with ATI card its like hitting the nos button on most XD also toy around with either -w128 or -w256 and a nice little cherry if you using them for mostly mining is -f10 this allows the cards prioritize mining to the max my 5870 card are set up with -v -f10 -w256 and im pulling 355-360 with no over clock XD

Relative to Bitcoin mining, yes.  A 7850 is about 61% faster for gaming than a 5850 though.

No clue.  Never had a 5850.

I hear they are the best card ever for mining.  Heard some guys saying they got 415 mhash range out of them.

Yeah I want all 7970 from now on.  I wonder if I could sell my 7850 on this forum.
