Title: Any other tips for increasing mining speed
Post by: The Koolio on June 01, 2011, 06:33:09 PM
I have a 5870, finely tuned to 1ghz and 300 using pheonix on btcguild getting 440-460 hash. Ignoring things like flags are there any other tips for increasing speed. I use windows 7 and took off all appearance things, any other similar ideas that would get me an extra 10-20 hash

Why don't you share what you're using right now so we have a starting point?

Worksize 256 has always given me better performance with my 5870s.

I tried that as well as 64, but neither produce as fast as 128 for me, guess it works for some

Optimization of the miners seems to be a fickle thing. I have my miners split between BTCGuild and Deepbit.

All dedicated miners are exactly the same, physical build and software, yet like you on BTCGuild I get 440 to 460, but on Deepbit I get 410 to 420. And the funny thing is the returns are pretty even !
