So i order a few 5850s from bens outlet (OEM) built a new win764 box with 11.12 and SDK2.6. using cgminer i set the following
Engine 900
Mem 300
volts (default)
And my results were locking and freezing right after i launched cgminer. so i dropped the engine to 840 and now my mhs is 300. I switched to SDK 2.4 and the 11.6 driver package and get the same results. This feels a bit low for a 5850.
my current hardware config is
890fxa gd70
1 gb mem
sempron 140
500 watt psu
any thoughts?

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Mine doesnt lock and crash @ 940-950 (depends on the cards) / 300, with standard (1.088V) voltage (it's a sapphire extreme non-ref)
What brand is it? Reference or non-ref?

its an OEM Reference. I also have a visiontek reference running at 920/500 on another box doing 370 on 11.6 and 2.4 sdk. it seems really low to me |

So i solved my issue. I completed the steps in the following order
1. deleted the partition
2. installed win7
3. installed ati 11.11 drivers pack
4. installed SDK 2.5
5. installed drivers for the rest of the missing hardware
6. configure CGminer as followed
Engine 920
mem 500
volts (removed line from json)
default the rest
fan 45%
temp 65 -70c
Now i'm getting 370 stable with one card so i'm guessing that it must have been some left overs from the SDK2.6/11.12 driver package.

Are you getting the 100 cpu bug? |
