XFX R9 280X poor speed

[JakeC]

Hi all,

I recently brought an XFX R9 280X but I'm struggling to get a desired 700+ KH/s..

I was getting below 500 but I've since flashed the bios to the MSI one. I'm running out of ideas, I've tried under volting, overclocking etc.. 

Here is my config file..

"intensity" : "13",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "scrypt",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192",
"shaders" : "2048",
"gpu-engine" : "950",
"gpu-fan" : "0-85",
"gpu-memclock" : "1500",
"gpu-memdiff" : "0",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"gpu-vddc" : "0.000",
"temp-cutoff" : "88",
"temp-overheat" : "85",
"temp-target" : "75",
"api-mcast-port" : "4028",
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "120",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"hotplug" : "5",
"log" : "5",
"failover-only" : true,
"auto-fan" : true,
"no-pool-disable" : true,
"queue" : "0",
"scan-time" : "1",
"temp-hysteresis" : "3",
"shares" : "0",
"scrypt" : true,

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Hi,
I've got a couple HIS 280x cards that use a TC of 8960 best also anything other than 1050 GPU core ruins my hashrate. I also use a voltage of 1.118, although that usually varies.

Thanks for the reply

I've just changed the engine speed to 1020 and was going to start going up in 10 , I noticed the rate in the red has increased but not the green (see photo) Which is actual speed?

I cant can't increase the TC any higher

Try 1028 engine or 1032. Keep fan speed constant prolly 75% on afterburner. Voltage 1075. I have played with my r9 280x setting for days and days this is my 24/7 720hash stable.

Thanks I'll give it a go

OP, on your own it's worthless. Instead of wasting your time and losing peace of mind, see this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=435438.msg4849281#msg4849281
