HW Errors are quite normal with the diffculty at .43 as it is right now, if you notice, you get shares INSANELY quickly. I wouldn't lower intensity at all, leave it as a normal scrypt coin config.
Thanks for the info. So every time cgminer gives me the following message:
- Accepted fed95850 Diff 8/0 GPU 0
A share is being accepted?
After I start cgminer, I get one of those every 10-20 seconds, to me that's normal. But then all of a sudden I'll get multiple every second, that's when my Hw start popping up, doesn't seem normal.
It doesn't feel right. After letting the HW errors grow up to 4500, my hashrate on the pool has dropped from 180 khash to 60 khash.
I then try quitting cgminer and restarting it up. It'll be back to the default 1 "accepted" share message per ~20 seconds and my khash starts increasing on the pool stat page... that is until the fast shares start popping back up and screwing everything up.
I don't understand why my hashrate should drop on the website if I'm submitting shares faster? I feel like my mining is being wasted with those HW's.
My shares on the pool page are also a lot lower if I leave it, vs restarting it every time the HW's pop up.
Restarting the program every ~3-5 minutes is quite annoying though.
