Hi all, I have a 7x R9280X GPU rig and im only getting 80 MH/s total whereas I've read that people are squeezing 24MH/s per card. I have tried playing with configs but nothing seems to work out. However I noted that if mine with only 1 GPU I get around 24MH/s, the problem comes when I try to mine with the 7 cards. What am I doing wrong? Do you think it could be a driver problem?
Edit: Problem solved, replaced my 13.12 drivers with the newest 15.2 and works like a charm (getting 24 MH/s per card)

Yes of course its a driver problem , you didn't even specify Windows or Lunix how do you expect help lol ?

Maybe you need to run separate instances of ethminer. Like this: ethminer -G --opencl-device 0 ethminer -G --opencl-device 1 ethminer -G --opencl-device 2
But i'm not sure, hope it helps, in any case, try to find more info on google.

Unless graphic card is at least 2 gigabytes , is do not start. Ram GPU is used least 1,090 megabytes And also need to be 64bit operating with at least 4GB of RAM. I haven't been able to put my GPUs to work ( 6950\7850) What's the guide that you have followed to put them to work? can you post the link?

Not sure what you mean by this , the power consumption depends on the card not on the Algo you are mining. X11 gives you a higer Hash rate than scrypt on the ALgo basis but youre still pushing the card to its limits so power consumption does not change. a 280x pulls around 240 at the wall

Update your drivers, i use the last AMD drivers and i get the max of my GPU, maybe that's an issue.

Also for SHA256, it uses little memory bandwidth so you can reduce the memory speed.

Dear folks, I have problems mining ether. I have 3x 280x, 2, 1 Windforce XFX. After a while mining the PC freezes. The temperature of the GPU is up to 80 degrees Celsius, but I do not know how to decrease these temperatures. I made them clean the GPU, I changed my windows 8.1 to 10, update the SDK and driver catalist.
Can you help me? Thank you.
