im not sure what was involved in this latest upgrade but the performance of the card in my mac (nvidia card) is about 100% better than it was before. far less stale shares and the performance chart is not bouncing around anymore. before the upgrade the performance chart for that card was bouncing from 0 to 50mh now its far more consistent and climbing since the upgrade and hovering around 75mh. i dont really know if it is an actual improvement or not but it sure looks much more stable. i have not noticed much change at all with my main mining rig.. that is still chugging away at around 1200mh. nice work on the upgrade. unreal change for my mac and crappy nvidia card. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Ftardis1.tinygrab.com%2Fgrabs%2F20221046758b028c3af4cdd59e40c3ea41b44b02df.jpg&t=663&c=W6ywp60aLf4QAg)

What you need to do is uninstall the ATI drivers, then install without the CCC option during setup. CCC takes control over the cards and doesn't let other overclocking software do its job.
that does not work.

i dont know what this did but i switched from open CL to phoenix changed a bunch of flags and went from 275Mh to 290MH on each of my 4 6870 cards
thanks!

it only sets idle memory speeds.
once the card is running at 100% or close to that it reverts back to 1050 or something high.
i never got it to work with my cards

has anyone been able to get afterburner to start when they install 4 identical 6870 cards?
CCC will control all 4 cards, all 4 cards work about the same when mining but when all 4 are installed afterburner wont launch. 3, 2 and 1 cards it works fine.
i get an error that says ""failed to initialize display driver wrapper."
i have reinstalled drivers, reinstalled afterburner (regular and beta), reinstalled the operating system, did some registry edits that supposedly worked for someone else with the same problem that didn't work, run the cards in crossfire (2 x2 crossfired, and one crossfired with 2 individual cards), 3 cards have dummy plugs, 4th plugged into monitor.
trying to overclock the cards a bit more than is possible with CCC. I have tried Trixx but it only changes one of the 4 cards even though i have the box checked to apply to all cards. all 4 cards are identical, brand, manufacturer, and bought at the same time.
running 2 cards on extenders and 2 cards plugged into the motherboard. the whole box pulls 630 watts and it has a 850w gold power supply.

i just built this case for mine. built from square aluminum tubing, angle aluminum and plexi, hot glue and rivets ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fc0848462.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com%2F2022104675c74d4f47a458478efde1f87413b98e0b.png&t=663&c=ksufCMbenDxh1A) i put plexi on the sides and have a house fan on the front blowing through the case and out a window. adding the plexi sides cut the noise by 70% and i get no hot air in my apartment. I am going to print some end caps for the top out of ABS and then hot glue some plexi to them for the top.

limit people to this newbie section for 48 hours
effectively banning people that have been here for a while from even posting things that they were discussing 5 hours ago sucks

none of my shares have shown up for this round and i am running 6 miners at about 1.3gh
some of the block stats are a bit strange as well. they sometimes show up a -20 until confirmed and the most recent #495 was confirmed instantly
#487 was instantly confirmed as well

what happened in march of 2011? there is a big spike in the hashing power then a dropoff then a difficulty decrease.
when were graphics card miners written?
when were pools created?

yes sir it will help keep them much cooler
Your the man :O they stay very cold like this. i have a homemade aluminum frame 2 level case with these. 2 cards and the power supply on the top level and 2 cards and the motherboard on the bottom level. the bottom cards are plugged into the 16x ports and the top cards are on extenders plugged into the 1x ports. they have about an inch between them and the temps are about 15 degrees colder than when i had them back to back. the case is a few inches bigger than the motherboard and is about 13-14" tall. basically a cube with fans on the front blowing through i got my cables from here https://cablesaurus.com/you can pay in bitcoins, my order arrived in 3 days and it shipped all the way across the US

on the really short rounds you can really make some coin when you get a ton of shares in within 2-3 min.
