Hey, new to this forum.
I just built a new rig, currently has 1 7950 in it, with 2 7970's on the way.

It's running LTC Rabbit OS on it, and has been running pretty smoothly.

Though I can't seem to find any solid info on if the HW errors in my case are harmful to the card.
I have had one card fry on me after overworking it with a LOT of HW errors, but this one is much better.

191,698 Accepted shares, and 2625 Rejects, 5 HW Errors. (System uptime is 8 days).

The HW errors are pretty low, but I really don't know if that is low, or if I should be concerned about a card failure in the future... As I don't want to wait 2 weeks to get a replacement.


(Ignore the A/R rates in SSH... I don't know why they are in the millions... Every accepted share adds around 60 accepted to the counter..)

Config is pretty standard, has the magical thread concurrency, with a intensity of 20. (Tried 13, 17, etc, but 20 in this situation gave the most performance for me).
Some of the other standard variables I forgot, a bit of a hassle to get the config from ssh/monitor.

Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated, as I am pretty new to this, and don't want to break any more equipment!
Thanks!

P.S I have a 7970 on my personal computer, which has been running 24/7 for 3 days so far, 475Kh 55290A/94R/0HW/64*C... Tuned down lower so I can still use the PC, play games, etc.

It is very low number of HW Errors, it is under one per day.
I normally have few in a hour, but I admit I trying mine most of the card because the card has still a warranty Smiley

Oh good, so it should be nothing to worry about?
My last catastrophe involved over a hundred HW's per day, and the system would eventually crash to bios whenever any load was applied to it.
Pink lines all over the screen, luckily they approved my RMA and got a new one that isn't having any issues. (Got lucky too, fan blade broke by accident!)
