Title: [Solved, it was sdk 2.6] 5870 slower than others? Post by: SiegeBreaker on February 11, 2012, 07:21:45 PM I am only getting 370MH/s. I see reports of others regularly getting ~450Mh/s out of their 5870's what am I missing?
I got a Vapor-X 5870 clocked at 900MHz, 300MHz mem running cgminer at I=9 on Win 7 64-bit, turning crossfire off/on makes no difference. I clocked up to 950MHz and only could get up to ~390MH/s. Title: Re: 5870 slower than others? Post by: Miner612 on February 11, 2012, 08:53:30 PM I clock mine to 1187 core and 300 ram ... and get about 440 mhash.
win7 - 64bit, 11.11 amd drivers, cgminer 2.2.1 -- nothing special. Title: Re: 5870 slower than others? Post by: SiegeBreaker on February 11, 2012, 09:57:35 PM Thanks Holliday! Reverting to 2.5 did the trick, I did have 2.6 from when 12.1 came out. I am back over 400MHz now. I had thought the sdk version issues were only on Linux from what I had heard, but good to know otherwise.
Title: Re: 5870 slower than others? Post by: R04dRunn3r on February 11, 2012, 10:10:15 PM I get 433 on a 5870.
GPU @ 950 Mhz, Vcore @ 1.162, Mem 300, 11.12 driver SDK 2.5 I think 370 Mh/s @ 900 is normal with 11.11 drivers. Try 11.11 with SDK 2.5 [edit]Little bit late I see.[/edit] Title: Re: 5870 slower than others? Post by: eroxors on February 12, 2012, 09:08:21 PM My 5870 does 440-480 at 1000mhz, 1.2v, sdk 2.5
Title: Re: 5870 slower than others? Post by: joulesbeef on February 12, 2012, 09:20:14 PM I wonder how much AMD has helped to artificially keep difficulty down, with sdk 2.6
Title: Re: [Solved, it was sdk 2.6] 5870 slower than others? Post by: SiegeBreaker on February 12, 2012, 09:29:04 PM Now, I fixed myWindows rigs, but how do I check the sdk version on linux?
Title: Re: [Solved, it was sdk 2.6] 5870 slower than others? Post by: SiegeBreaker on February 18, 2012, 01:13:58 PM Nevermind, I just looked on my drive at which sdk I downloaded. ie: 'AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64.tgz'

Title: Re: [Solved, it was sdk 2.6] 5870 slower than others? Post by: SiegeBreaker on February 18, 2012, 03:36:23 PM There is a thread that has details to revert the sdk manually, this specific message: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=54693.msg651989#msg651989 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=54693.msg651989#msg651989) has a rar you can just unpack to replace your 2.6 binaries with the 2.5 ones. You could do it messing around with the AMD uninstaller/installer but I found it easier to do manually
