Title: Slow hashrate XMR, 7970 with old mobo, 3gb ram Post by: ppppp123 on May 18, 2017, 11:03:35 PM Getting 320~ h/s, expected 500+ given various benchmarks online. I have a very old motherboard from an HP build with only 3 gb of ram. Specs:
Asus Berkeley (IPIBL-LA) motherboard Win 10 64 bit 3 GB 333mhz DDR2 ram 3 GB XFX R7970 not overclocked Q6600 CPU @ 2.4 GHz not overclocked, running at very high temps for some reason (80 C) Do I have a bottleneck at the CPU? RAM? I'm not CPU mining, not sure why my temps are so high, either bad temp gauge or something else. I just applied new thermal glue. Using latest claymore cryptonote miner, minergate pool.

setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 no change, anyone? Title: Re: Slow hashrate XMR, 7970 with old mobo, 3gb ram Post by: Gunntha on May 20, 2017, 07:33:14 PM First thing: trash the Windows 10 ! You should use Windows 7 for better performance.
Second: get the Crimson 15.12 driver for your card - not the latest drivers! Your board donīt matter at all ... XFX cards are known for their overheating problems. Find a Gigabyte , Power Color or Sapphir Card (a used one from eBay). Title: Re: Slow hashrate XMR, 7970 with old mobo, 3gb ram Post by: ppppp123 on May 20, 2017, 10:01:16 PM thanks a lot!
gonna try out Ubuntu so I can switch over to ETH maybe, does that perform equally with win 7? |
