Title: stale shares
Post by: rot on August 22, 2011, 09:24:46 PM
Im currently running 2 6990s. on win 7 64 bit

running at about 1427.10 MH/ i am only using 1 worker. should i make 4 separate workers or is one fine?

I'm in the deepbit pool and my current stale share is around 50% is that high or normal.

Your overclock is probably to high. Even 8mhz on my card caused 4x+ the amount of stales so it is not really worth it. Find a more stable overclock it is well worth it.
