Here's the config file I'm using:
{ "pools" : [ {
"url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.give-me-ltc.com:3333", "user" : "xxxxxx", "pass" : "xxxxxx" } ] , "intensity" : "14", "vectors" : "1", "worksize" : "256", "kernel" : "scrypt", "auto-fan" : true, "auto-gpu" : true, "temp-cutoff" : "85", "thread-concurrency" : "8192", "intensity" : "13", "lookup-gap" : "2", "temp-overheat" : "75", "temp-target" : "63", "expiry" : "30", "gpu-dyninterval" : "7", "log" : "5", "queue" : "1", "retry-pause" : "5", "scan-time" : "30", "scrypt" : true, "temp-hysteresis" : "3", "shares" : "0" }
Any idea what is wrong?

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

nothing. its a crapy miner . you can try higher intensity, also sometimes concurrency 8000 is much faster than 8192. dont use 12.10 drivers!

I've tried GUIMiner-scrypt and I get less kh/s. And I believe I'm on beta driver 13.3. EDIT: Still having problems I managed to get my speed up to 290-295 kh/s if I turn the intensity up to 17 or so. But I've heard people getting 350 kh/s at intensity 13 with my card.

Just worked through this exact same issue, but with reaper. What got me mining at ~350 KH/s was changing the gpu_thread_concurrency to 15000. More or less copied settings for the 7870, and it worked. There is no where I could find that had the 7860 settings filled in in a guide. You can probably get more KH/s by working with the concurrency. Solution was found in tacotime's post at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=117221.msg1256502#msg1256502.

I ment the GPU not the cgminer.nice that you have foud a solution.

I don't use cgminer, but reaper. But, I get 360kh/s, so that hashrate is pretty low. My clock speeds: 1150 core, 6000 mem (just when I am not using my pc for a few hours), and 1250-1300 core, 6000 mem (when I just want to mine). I can post my Reaper settings, maybe U use the wrong concurrency: worksize 256 vectors 1 aggression 19 threads_per_gpu 1 sharethreads 32 lookup_gap 2 gpu_thread_concurrency 15360 The aggression won't go 20, it'll BSOD. I don't know if your card will reacht such clocks, I am very lucky to get such speeds, and ofcourse your temps, I have a Asus HD7850 with the DCII cooler, fan @50-55% is 50 Degrees celcius (18 degrees room temperature) at those clocks. What you can do to get higher clocks, is let it mine for 5 minutes at stock, then slowly increise your clock with 10 mhz and the same with mem, but mem BSOD's above 1500, period.

Anyway, use Reaper, much better and less error, I promise (at least if you configure it the right way ofc.) And you can copy paste the setting I gave you, you only have to edit the pool (don't use http:// before the pool addres). Thats it.

Yes I did, sorry, I got reaper and followed the instructions, but when I open it the window opens for a split second then closes, any idea?

Open cgminer using a .bat or a new console, high thread concurrencies will now work. LINUX: Open terminal and type Code: export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100 Now high thread concurrencies should work in cgminer. As meebs points out, in order to go above 8192 thread concurrency with cgminer, you have to set the GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT. If you use setx in Windows, you only have to do it once, because it writes the setting to the registry. Here are the cgminer settings I use: 350kh/s, no overvolting, desktop usable: --scrypt --gpu-fan 0-100 --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 900 --intensity 12 --thread-concurrency 13632 --gpu-threads 2 365kh/s, overvolted, desktop usable: --scrypt --gpu-vddc 1.225 --gpu-fan 100 --gpu-engine 1150 --gpu-memclock 1000 --intensity 12 --thread-concurrency 13632 --gpu-threads 2 390kh/s, overvolted, desktop unusable: --scrypt --gpu-vddc 1.225 --gpu-fan 100 --gpu-engine 1150 --gpu-memclock 1000 --intensity 19 --thread-concurrency 27164

Yeah I tried Guiminer today, WOW, on the same clock speeds (1150 core, 1500 mem) and NO overvolting I get 395!!! Kh/s @200 watt total system power, thats what I call making a profit... Also, watch your temps, the Asus card I have doesn't reach over 51 degrees @50% fan, its awesome. Good luck... (Also, if you want to try guiminer, select the 7850 high preset and change intensity to 18-19, then your done with the card settings!)

Thanks, it now runs at 15000 thread conc, but hash speeds haven't really changed Still getting about 305-310 kh/s on intensity 18.
