I'm mining Creamcoin using the SGminer x11 Mod, and while it works, my hashrate is unbelievably low, about 200 Kh/s when around 10mh/s is to be expected from my GPU, a Radeon XFX R9 290X. I have tried manually increasing the gpu settings, changing the memclock to 1250 and the gpu clock to 1000, but either it says failed, or drivers shows success but check values below and they didn't change from 300MHZ Engine Clock, 150 MHZ Mem clock. I want SGMiner to automatically take full advantage of my graphics card for maximum hashrates and its not happening. What do?
Is this a bios problem? Power saver mode or something?
There isn't an issue with your SGMiner / your config. There's an issue with the driver version you are using, probably not supported with your SGMiner version. Your drivers simply crash, leading your GPUs to run at almost idle, thus, at an extremely low hashrate. Had the same thing had happen on me, using Nicehash. Either try switching to another version of your drivers and/or use an older version of SgMiner.
