Use Catalyst 13.12. There are modded drivers out there if you connect 5 or more cards. Someone said he could run 7 cards on Win 8.1 with standard drivers.

You can install Windows 7 on a 32GB USB pen http://www.rmprepusb.com/tutorials/win7onusb
I have a system mining that way

drakoin, how about a middle ground between (B2) and (C) above?

Perhaps 0.95V on the core with your optimized Stilt bios allows core ~950Mhz and VRAM 1500Mhz, leading to ~650 Kh/s and ~3.3 Kh/W

post information about the PSU, brand, model, how old is it, etc...

Mid power ( 4 cores instead of 8 ) which allows you to work on the PC without even feeling a miner is on, will give you half of that.
You will not lose income and the PC stays responsive if you use 7 cores and start yam in idle priority.

start /low /affinity 7f "yam -c yam-mmc.cfg"

 wtf do I know really? I don't even have a 7950.
1267  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 7950 settings for I 13 and g 2 on: January 29, 2014, 07:23:12 PM
Since the card has 1792 shaders, shouldn't you start on 7168 and add 1792 at a time?
1268  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Will four Sapphire R9 290x cards run alright on a 1000w EGVA platinum rated psu? on: January 29, 2014, 07:13:52 PM
3 290x at most on 1000w. Then that PSU has 6 pci-e connectors, so it supports 3 cards only.

Quite possibly, 186W is just the core. RAM, fans, and the rest may take extra 50W. Then you have to multiply by a factor above 1, since the VRMs onboard of the video card are below 100% efficiency. If the videocard components demand 236 W, the VRMs will demand even more from the PSU, let's be conservative and say 250W

To be on the safe side, consider 100w for the rest of the system, because the 5V and 3.3V lines are typically lower efficiency.

So that's 3 x 250 + 100 = 850W. If you're going to leave the system mining, the PSU should be somewhat below 100% load for safety reasons.

The cards are on stock voltage, right? If they are, you risk burning the cards. Does gpu-z show VRM temperature?

I have no idea, I was wondering the same thing.
At the window, press 'G', enter '0' and enter '13'. Hashrate should increase, no?

Is there actually any real profit in this after paying for the cloud hosting fees? just curious.
On DigitalOcean no, and the OP doesn't care either. He's only promoting his referral link and earning $10 per paying signup.

On Amazon EC2 spot instances, sometimes, if you get a good price and choose the coin well



Have you tried it or you "just know"?
Yes, I did try. Azure, DO and Amazon EC2, mining Protoshares in December. Amazon EC2 spot instances is the best option.
1272  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Board influences the hash outcome? on: January 29, 2014, 02:56:16 PM
You need M/B and CPU that support PCI 3.0 or you won't get the best speed.

I saw 30% performance boost moving from a Core 2 Quad PCI 2.1 system to i5 PCI 3.0 system with the same graphics cards.

The data bus is just faster on newer M/B and CPUs. I see people put a cheap Celeron CPU on a decent 3.0 M/B all the time and it's just slow!

If PCIe 3.0 is twice as fast as PCIe 2.1 because of the added bandwidth, then how come I see a ZERO drop in hashrate when I mine with my GPUs plugged into the MB, using all 16x PCIe lanes, or when I'm running them off a 1x to 16x riser?
To be frank, you're not contradicting him. Your PCI-e risers still provide dedicated lanes, with the same PCI-e version

It could be so many things, including high PCI-e latency, collisions or crappy hardware attached to the bus ( integrated sound, sata, ethernet )

77ºC is too high. The fan should always run at high speed.

"gpu-fan" : "70-90",

Post screenshots of GPU-z while mining, both tabs and also of speedfan.

Are you undervolting the card with VBE7? Since you can't read the VRM temperature, I hope you are.

That said, there are defective Corsair PSUs in the market

1275  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What do you want from a coin switching scrypt/sha pool? on: January 29, 2014, 09:02:56 AM
2. Yes. we are working on optimizing this right now. There are a couple of different ways to go with this. Using multiple exchanges to help avoid an instant "sell order" flood is apparently the most effective method for the time being. Good trade bots helps as well, but trading is an art that very few people can do with any kind of profitable consistency. To put it in simple terms. We don't want to gamble with other peoples money.
The point of a bot (or script, whatever one calls it) is not for "trading" or gambling with people's money, but is to prevent such flood by selling in low volumes, multiple times throughout the day.
1276  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Searching: Hash results from XFX HD 7990 - FX-799A-6NF9 on: January 29, 2014, 08:29:23 AM
On my opinion, two R9 280x (my R9-280X-TDBD gives 710 kH/s each) or R9 290 (even more kH/s) will cost less then one 7990 and bring more hashrate.
How will 2 R9-290 cost less than 500€ ??
1277  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Profitable Mining Using Cloud Servers - $$$ More Coins - More Money $$$ on: January 29, 2014, 05:25:43 AM
Mining dogecoin is unprofitable on DO, half the coins on your list cant even be mined by this miner (NXT cant even be mined i think), this guide is unprofitable/unusable in this format.

[edit]

What im trying too say is, if you wanna get refs, atleast hand out correct information and help your commentors. Roll Eyes
1278  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1500 kh/s per day, earning only .015btc? on: January 29, 2014, 05:04:21 AM
Any recommendations for a good multi-pool?
Since you asked, middlecoin.com

Stay away from hashco.ws and others that announce the coins they are mining.

1279  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Would appreiciate some help with my 280x mining rig on: January 29, 2014, 04:59:11 AM
What were the settings you used on VBE7? Did you use the DOS atiflash?

What "Sensors" do you have on GPU-z? Could you post a screenshot while mining?

The GPU may be faulty, yes. I have such a damaged card, locks up systems after a few minutes of mining.

im using a undervolted cgiminer.
What do you mean by this ??
1280  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Would appreiciate some help with my 280x mining rig on: January 29, 2014, 03:40:50 AM

Answer the questions atp1916 asked, and follow his advice.
