Title: [scrypt][mining]7950 Mining config for cgminer ~590kh/s, good temps, 0 HW errors
Post by: overseer470 on July 31, 2013, 09:37:40 PM
Hello

After looking around the web and trying out different configs, this seems to be the sweet spot for me with temps I feel that are extremely safe.

Here's all you need to know, tell me if I'm missing something

Sapphire Radeon 7950 Vapor-X Boost Ed.
Windows 7 x64, 2GB RAM on this system
Driver version 13.6 with
cgminer 3.3.1

OC settings, done with sapphire trixx
+11 Power Limit
1.150 VDDC
1150 Core clock
1250 Memory Clock
physical 'boost' button is ON

cgminer settings
"scrypt" : true,
"kernel" : "scrypt",
"shaders" : "1792",
"intensity" : "13",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192",
"temp-cutoff" : "95",
"temp-overheat" : "85",
"expiry" : "1",
"worksize" : "256"

No SETMEM or other commands used with a bat file.
69 celsius on a hot summer night, ~80 VRM Temps, case is a HAF XB with case fans off, except for the left front one, all panels on.

As you can see in this bunch of pics, hashrate is around ~590. I keep this thing running 24/7 and it never skips a beat.

Let me know if you have some better config, I'd definitely be happy with a better one, but without going over 70-72 celsius.
Thought about posting it in the mining section but it's under 'Bitcoin' so whatever.
If it helps, I wouldn't mind you throwing a few LTC my way  ::)

Cheers

The temps are fine you could safely push a little more out of it and raise the thread concurrency and intensity

Do you have "Verbose" logging set in CGminer?
