Title: Bitcoin mining in khash same as LTC speed?!?!
Post by: tom_o on May 15, 2013, 10:12:59 PM
Hi there, been mining for a while on a 7970 at 725kHash on litecoin. Im trying to now mine bitcoin, yet my speed is also listed in kHash (around 750) but no work gets done or shares accepted.

Also the card sits about 30 degrees cooler than with litecoin so the card obviously isn't under proper load. I've tried redownloading cgminer to no avail. Help!?

And yes I have removed --scrypt

Remove any *.bin files and run again. I see this when I switch between litecoin and bitcoin mining and don't delete the *.bin files first. cgminer will recreate them when it starts up.

There are none, this happens with a fresh unzipped download too.

remove shaders and thread concurrency, all of those scrypt type things
 -v 1 -w 256 -I 9 -k diablo --gpu-memdiff -150 --no-submit-stale
that's what i run
your Intensity isn't in the range for sha256

I haven't seen any benefit over 9, 10 works but fluxuates like crazy for sha.  I think it said in the documentation that the higher ones are for future tech
