Post by: e21 on March 02, 2012, 09:55:07 PM I have just finished testing a few and it looks like diablominer is best I am looking into making a new rig with four of these; can anyone give some hashrates using the newest DiabloMiner? Please post clock rates, voltages too if you changed them! Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ?

Con hit 718 at 1200/1050... Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ? Post by: vmarchuk on March 03, 2012, 10:52:21 PM CGMiner is not better for 7xxx series. I test both Diablo and CGMiner on 7970 and 7950 and Diablo always faster.

Current cgminer includes the diablo kernel so it should be identical.Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ? Post by: vmarchuk on March 04, 2012, 12:54:24 AM Current cgminer includes the diablo kernel so it should be identical. Oops ! I not know this. Last version of CGMiner I check is several weeks old. Thank you ! edit: i download 2.3.1-2 and use -k diakgcn and still get better performance with Diablominer. Not sure why cgminer run slower for me. cgminer give me 40-50mhash less than Diablo on 7xxx series using 12.2pre Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ?

12.2pre + bundled sdk + win7 32-bit core 1125 mhz -> 662 mh/s Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ?

I try with -v 2 with diakgcn and maybe 5mhash faster. I not understand why so slow for me. I continue to use diablominer for now and keep look on cgminer project. Like how multi GPU support in cgminer edit: I try -k diakgcn and -k diablo and performance near 5mhash difference. I think I maybe download Polish version of cgminer. I try English version and see if faster. Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ? Post by: Blackasaurus on March 06, 2012, 04:40:25 AM CGMiner is not better for 7xxx series. I test both Diablo and CGMiner on 7970 and 7950 and Diablo always faster. Current cgminer includes the diablo kernel so it should be identical.After testing both I still find diablo to be faster in all situations/configurations, not exactly sure why considering this^ but diablo is ahead for me. Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ? Post by: JWU42 on March 16, 2012, 08:30:55 PM I can hit 700 at 1175 / 1025 ;D
"Standard" cgminer 2.3.1 (poclbm and 64 worksize IIRC) Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ? Post by: Diapolo on March 16, 2012, 10:35:45 PM CGMiner is not better for 7xxx series.

Did you try -k diakgcn -v 2 -w 256 ? use https://github.com/Diapolo/cgminer/blob/f9114da26b95e8f8cf73fd7ca014d7af8f1689a7/diakgcn120223.cl I got it from Diapolo. The above version of diakgcn kernel will be released in the next cgminer version. It works well for me. pushing 680s with 1170/685 on Win7. I made a small change, which should be a little bit faster ... if you want to try it out take this file: https://github.com/Diapolo/cgminer/blob/master/diakgcn120223.cl Dia Title: Re: Best miner for 7970 ?

Wow I didn't know I made a Polish version of cgminer... oh yeah I didn't so I'm not sure what you're talking about. |
