I get 550khash with these settings :O ?
There is something wrong here as you should be getting much more. I get 650-700 from 7950s.. Yup I figured as much..but I Dont know what. Using higher TC makes cgminer crash on start, same with using lookup-gap, tried clocking some, that got me 20-30 higher khash but crashed the card efter 15 mins Try setting a different -g. Some card uses 1 and some uses 2 to be effience. Also do you happen to have watt a kill to test out the power consumption? |

Either way, nobody is going to buy a $600 card for 1Mh/s, so I'm really not in great anticipation

Maybe if power is a concern and they really improve on that front...say 300w for 1mh/s, it won't be so bad. |

Everyone have been talking about AMD R9 290x, 290, 280x. Did you guys forget about R9 270x? Tried really hard to look for some info about it but found nothing on the internet.  |

We didn't forget, there's plenty of info. It's like this: -R9 290x and 290 are the ones that are new gpus. -R9 280X is a 7970 GE -R7 270X is a 7870 Pitcairn card or maybe Tahiti LE, so not so good |

If its worth buying to hash Scrypt coins.. |

If its worth buying to hash Scrypt coins.. Well, 7870 sucks for mining...you should wait for either an r9 280 non x (cheap 7950) or get used 7950s, or get an r9 290 if it's good. |

Alright thanks, will wait for R9 290 then. Did they just delay the release again? |

Not bad when you take that radeon gcn architecture is not purely gaming oriented. I'm curious how good miner this card is.
