I opened up my 7970 to put on new thermal paste *(Artic Silver 5) and now temps are 10C higher.. wth? Do I have to wait until it's cured?

Currently OC'd and mining at 1250Mhz core clocks and 300mhz Mem clocks. I don't know how much it's currently doing on Diablo miner because 5970 is also running ;/ but total hash is 1400mhs right now! This is at stock voltages as well. I'm gonna see how far I can push this beast!

Hey guys.

I was getting 1080 hash/sec with just 5970 and 5870 (on CGMiner) around 350hash/sec for each GGPU

 now I switched to:

7970
6870
5970

and only getting 1400 hash/sec (on DiabloMiner because it is required for 7970).

What am I doing wrong?

Hey guys,

I've been using CGMiner and it's been great so far. I need help with the drivers / tweaks and what not so I can get the best out of my hardware for the best hashrate possible.

I have the following hardware:

Phenom II X4 830
Asus Crosshair IV Extreme (5 PCI-E slots)
Cooler Master 1300W Hybrid Silent
OCZ LE 100GB
7970
5970
5870
6950
6950

I have the following settings for the bat file:

cd C:\Users\Bitcoin\Desktop\cgminer-2.1.2-win32

start /affinity 1 cgminer -o pit.deepbit.net:8332 -u xxx -p xxx -v 2 -w 256 -g 4 -k phatk --gpu-memclock 300 --auto-fan --temp-target 69 -I 9

Now as for the drivers I believe I have the following:

Catalyst 11.12
OpenGL 6.14.10.11318 -

And I don't even know what SDK I have or what I need to use. The amdocl64.dll version is 10.0.831.4 -- I can't tell what SDK version that is.

I would appreciate any help if possible! Thanks!

What are your electricity rates? Mine is currently 8 cents / kWh

I think I will stop when it breaks even with eletricity. What are your rates at?

BUYING:

I'm looking to build multiple 24/7 full load on graphics rigs

I need all your 5830s. I've bought 4 so far for $60-65 each so I will not pay a cent more for these.

Looking for AM3 Mobos with at least 2x PCI-E slots for CF. I can get these on Newegg for $40 after coupon. So I will be looking for cheaper ones.

Nice PSU that will support and run at least TWO 5830s 24/7

Nice case with great airflow. I'm currently using the Rosewill ARMOR. It's awesome!

Also looking for cheap hdd / ssd / RAM

And if you have full rigs matching any of the above please also post! Thanks!

I'm currently using CGminer and it's a HUGE improvement over the GUIminer. I was wondering if I should stick with this miner or try another for more mh/sec?

Currently:
~630 mh/sec with 2 overclocked 24/7 5830s @950mhz top and @1000mhz bottom - ~60C top and ~50C bottom

What flags should I use for 5830s? Got two in Crossfire. I have the HIS 5830s

been using these flags for GUIMiner:
VECTORS AGGRESSION=12 WORKSIZE=256 BFI_INT

Is it good to invest into hardware and mine?

Hey guys,

Just finished my first rig today! Woot!

Rosewill ARMOR
Rosewill 1000W PSU Bronze Cert
Asus EAH6950 1GB x 2 OC'd@ 920mhz (top) and 950mhz (bottom)
Sempron 145 Unlocked to Dual Core @ 2.8Ghz

Are these numbers correct?
Both with flags: -v -f 1 -w 128 BFI_INT AGGRESSION=13
Mhash/sec:
Top: ~380
Bottom: ~390

Temps:
Both 75-76C

First time mining I don't know what to expect... how many coins can this rig generate a day?

Need the cheapest build for my TWO 6950s (bitcoin)

Hey guys,

I need all parts except graphics card. Cheaper is better.

No need for HDD / RAM also... got it already.

-I need a PSU that will support the 6950s and the rest of the system.
-Case does not matter
-Motherboard that does not bottleneck anything and supports at least 2 6950s

A few questions:

Does CPU matter? Will it bottleneck the graphics card for bitcoin mining?

How are these combinations?
