I upgraded the drivers for my two Sapphire 7850's 2GB yesterday and with the same exact clocks am receiving 40 less Mhash/s in GUI miner.

Does anyone have a clue as to why this is?

The clocks set in Sapphire TRIXX are the same as before, 1170 GPU / 1300 Memory / 1.220 voltage

Was receiving 350 Mhash before now I max out at 310 Mhash.

The cards are already pushing mid 80's C. with these clocks.

Hardly anyone speaks English on this forum.

Stop using GUI miner and start using CGMiner. Smiley

My 5850 gets ~350MH/s

I doubt GUI miner is the reason I'm seeing less Mhash

You are probably correct.  However, you should see an improvement with CGMiner... most people do!

I don't know about the drivers, though.  I use older cards, and they seem to only like Catalyst 13.1 so I won't be updating my drivers

It's after the fact, but if your setup is running fine don't change it. Updating drivers is not a good idea if your hashing where you should be. Also backup your old drivers if your gonna try an update. Hope you solve it. I suggest you mine LTC.
