Shitty Hashrate with 290x

[spaceships]

MrMork, is there an issue with pushing my clock that high? 50% higher than baseline seems a little dangerous.

Miz4r, I have 16 gigs.

i have 1 ( 21226-00-40G ) of them running and whenever i leave home i put it on 1022/1500/85% settings and havnt had it crash even once
for me it goes around 85celsius but really sounds like a jet engine so cant mine with that high fan settings when at home xD


the best place to look for a 290 / 290x settings for me atleast has been from here

Right now i am mining with 888/1250/55% settings 856kh/s 86c cos kids are sleeping just behind the wall my computers are at

MrMork, so that got my hash rate up. Thank you! However, it only mined for about 15 minutes before it disconnected from he pool and now cgminer hangs on startup. The GPU fans will turn up their speed but it just sits at "Starting cgminer". I tried a restart and it didn't work, I've also tried an older version of cgminer and the same thing happens. Any advice?

there is most likely a typo on the bat file like a extra "-" mark (shuts down the window)
copy paste it here and lets have a look

OR the pool server might be down (leaves the window open for a while on "starting cgminer" text

Here ya go:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer --scrypt  -o stratum+tcp://stratum1.dogechain.info -u user.worker -p password -I 20 -g 1 -w 512 --thread-concurrency 32765 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-powertune 30 --gpu-fan 85 --gpu-engine 927 --gpu-memclock 1250

I checked the mining pool and it didn't mention anything about being down and it still showed that they had processing power.

you have extra space before -o


setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum1.dogechain.info -u user.worker -p password -I 20 -g 1 -w 512 --thread-concurrency 32765 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-powertune 30 --gpu-fan 85 --gpu-engine 927 --gpu-memclock 1250


your ears can handle the 85% fan?

I must admit that its a bit overwhelming, but I just put some loud music on to drown it out haha

I'll definitely be sending some doge your way once I have it running for a bit. I'm on my way to work now though, so it'll be 10 hours before I even start.

Thanks again!

By chance is your pc connected to a battery backup? Plug it into a normal surge protector.

Do you have at least 8GB of RAM? Otherwise you may have problems running with thread-concurrency as high as 32765.

This is simply not true...  I run 5 cards with high tc with only 4GB of ram.
