HD5850 @ 340Mhash/s

[chungenhung]

I thought you can't volt mode sapphire 5850 via BIOS, as it is not reference design.
I believe the risk of bricking the is very high.

sure. thats why RBE creators[one more or less-working modern Radeon firmware editors] note that in howtows.
someone, friendly enough with hardware/iron and have good hands/cold brain/less power-greedy/hungry, can try hardware voltmod instead, or ask someone[for BitCoins, obviously ;-]on hardware enthusiasts/overclockers forums/web-sites do do it for you.

I have mine at 320Mhashes/s each card.  Much higher than 860Mhz and I'll eventually get a crashed display driver, and one card will stop mining.

its really good numbers.
note: not all exemplars can get serious/insane clocks, just "luckier" ones, whatever you do.
so don't be so greedy/power-hungry and enjoy power of you mining potential. and cookie or tea or soda&etc -)

337MHash/sec at 875MHz, 63C, 1.088V. Going to push it even farther soon.

playing around 900MHz(+-50Mhz) is more or less safe, if you PC case had Good airflow and not much dust in air.
unless you raise core voltage above 1.15V or something[which isn't reasonable in most cases].

Anyone running 5850 over 1.25v for 24/7?

Anyone running 5850 over 1.25v for 24/7?

I run only one, in a small room, Temp: 82-84C with Fan 86%.

Gigabyte 5850
GPU clock 870 Mhz/300 Mhz GPU memory clock@302 Mh/s
fan at 55% (automatic), 64 C, ambient tem is about 19 C
gpu voltage 1.088 V, catalyst version 11.5
gui miner -v -f0

Anyone running 5850 over 1.25v for 24/7?

Mine get unstable much above 1.24v I've found, and since I can't clock them over 990MHz for non-voltage reasons, there's no point running above 1.19v which I have 7 cards running stable at for a few days now.

You should be able to get a far higher Mh/s with phoenix miner.

You should be able to get a far higher Mh/s with phoenix miner.

And higher yet with DiabloMiner.

Well, I hit the limit of my 5850 without overvolting - 900MHz (good for 347Mhash/sec). When I went to 925, the result was almost immediate driver hang. Now I have to figure out how to overvolt this thing in Linux...

The log entry was fun to look at. Maybe you'll enjoy it too.

My 5850 is doing 368 at 918/305, and its only 75c.

Time to consider modding the bios....

I have noticed a pattern with clocks and voltage.
Raising clock speed does NOT guarantee high hash rate and,
raising voltage without raising clock speed will most likely result in higher hash rate.
Is this due to the GPU not getting enough juice to run at the OCed speed? and once it gets more volt, it start to work harder.

For example:
On XFX 5830 @ 930core/300ram gets about 267-270MH/s. Raising the core all the way up to 1040 still yields the same. The clock speed was checked by GPU-Z.
On Sapphire 5830 @ 900 core/300ram, raising the voltage to 1.25v gets about 10-15MH/s boost, without raising the clock speed.

Roughly what you outlined is exactly what happens, you can get away with undervolted overclocks however the effective performance gain wont be optimal and in some cases it might be so undervolted its running just stable enough not to crash, yielding no performance gains.

Gigabyte 5850
GPU clock 870 Mhz/300 Mhz GPU memory clock@302 Mh/s
fan at 55% (automatic), 64 C, ambient tem is about 19 C
gpu voltage 1.088 V, catalyst version 11.5
gui miner -v -f0

You should be able to get a far higher Mh/s with phoenix miner.

true. I get about 343 Mh/sec
My sintax is BFI_INT -k phatk VECTORS AGGRESSION=12

Is there another option to add to boost the speed (without increasing the voltage on the gpu) ?
PS:thanks for the advice

You should get closer to 345 or more with DiabloMiner -v 2 -w 128 (or possibly -w 192 or -w 256 if you underclock memory, some need it, some don't).

Im getting 391 Mhash/s on my Sapphire 5850 Xtreme.

@ 1.3v 24/7, 1045 core, 280 memory. Running @ 45C under load with watercooling.

using -v -w128 -f 25

Im using the latest guiminer, in Windows Vista x64. I do notice an improvement in speed with the phoenix and phatk miners, but Im a noobie when it comes to scripts, so guiminer is convenient. An overclocking noobie I am not, however

Seriously, we're doing a dick size thing? I'm doing 368 mhash @ 918/305 on 1.088v, and its below 75c. And I haven't even modded the bios yet.
