Title: 7850 Stability issues after switching OS Post by: snowcrashed on June 04, 2013, 12:00:11 AM I have a Sapphire 7850 which was being used for mining LTC. I was using BAMT and the card mined @ 350kh/s for days on end with no issues. I changed the rig's OS from BAMT to Xubuntu. I tried running CGMiner with the same settings/drivers as I was using in BAMT but the system resets after 15-20 minutes of mining. I am using the following settings: I=19, TC=8192, gpu-engine=1100, gpu-memclock=1350. After experimenting a bit, I found the card will run stable in Xubuntu if the intensity is at 17 or lower, but this is a loss of at least 100kh/s compared to what I had been getting. Cgminer reports a temperature of 67C and HW:0.
Why would I have stability issues in Xubuntu with higher intensity setting but BAMT runs fine? What could be causing this? Thanks. Title: Re: 7850 Stability issues after switching OS Post by: Someminir on June 04, 2013, 08:24:42 PM Hi,
I've got the same card but it doesn't work on BAMT. (Getting HW's) Would you mind posting your BAMT conf and Cgminer version? Thanks, Minir. P.s you might need to (re)fine-tune your settings for Xubuntu it works differently from BAMT. (I think.) |
