Hi to all. Yesterday I started to mine XMR on my GPUs, they are: ATI 480 8 gb. Claymore's minerGTX 970 4 gb. tsiv ccMinerThe problem is that my GPUs aren't so hot, like it was on eth or zec. Furthermore, they are just warm! My coolers on GTX running 55%, temperature is 52C. Power consumption is 110W instead of 195W at zec/eth. I thought it's because of old tsiv miner, but my ATI shows the same: temp is 61C, coolers are 62% (instead of 74C/90%). hashrate is 613 h/s on stock freq. Is it normal?

Usually that means the miners aren't very well optimized so the cards are not utilized completely, causing the low temps.

XMR mining consumes less power than ETH or ZEC. That's a good thing, nothing to worry about

Like many algos cryptonight was designed to be difficult to implement on GPUs. It's only due to the strength of XMR that it's profitable to mine with a GPU at this time.
That it consumes less power means the GPU is bottlenecked and can't perform at full power. The low temps mean the cores are spending time idle waiting on data, not really a good thing.
Optimization opportunities likely don't exist. With the current market there is plenty of incentive to try but I haven't seen any evidence of a breakthrough yet.
The CPU miner also seems to be topped out. Wolf (included in cpuminer-opt) and Claymore are pretty close in performance.

Zec was like that also after the dev's tweaked their miner and also optimized its now like eth

It looks that you are not living on a Florida, aren't you definitely not, central EU. And one of my 7970's with arctic extreme cooler is operating at 19C, I won't believe my eyes when I saw that. Hello, plese can you tell me where i can find this version of sgminer to mine monero?
Thanks.
Hi, You can find it in here https://github.com/genesismining/sgminer-gm/releases

Heh, look at this XMR mining with 39%fan Hehe, what is your ambient temp? Is there an exchange where you can trade hardware errors? Pretty nice wu/ m too...

Well, outside is -3C at the moment, I have half open window, so room ambient is for about 6C. And believe or not, I didn't "mine" single HW error with those 7970/280x cards. That image I posted previously is from 470's and it's, because of that I set raw intensity to 500 not 512, was just testing how it will behave with those settings. I'll switch back to 512. There is also source code, you can compile by yourself. https://github.com/genesismining/sgminer-gm/archive/master.zip

I think so, with claymore, I was getting constantly low diff shares, and then banned IP.

How much different in % is XMR more profitable than eth not counting electric costs?
