I've been mining Awesome Miner using Ming Pool Hubs for a while now with a RX480. I decided to plug in an old AMD 7950 I had to see what it can do. Awesome Miner is showing only HW errors, but the predicted price is higher when I have it enabled. Without waiting a couple days to see if my payouts go up, does the 0 accepted mean it's not working?

Indeed... I still have a handful of 7900 cards & they are doing great on Cryptonight coins.

Okay cool. I've been using the profit switching on Awesome Miner, but I'll look into setting it up to mine one currency directly. Thanks.

You can reduce the power draw abit and still get pretty decent performance for Cryptonight and Equihash algorithms. Cryptonight should be the lower power consumption of the two.

So I have got Equihash mining now, but there seems to be a problem. The GPU clock for both GPU's says 0MHz, but they are definitely working. Here's a pic of what I'm seeing on Awesome Miner.
