I used cgminer with one radeon 5850 and got 340MH/s (at 100% load)
But when I added second 5850 card  - I got only 250 MH/s on TWO cards. Cgminer shows, that both card are working at 44% (gpu activity)
Is there a way to make both cards work with cgminer at 100% load?
Anyone, help...

P.S. I run cgminer  on Ubuntu with these options:
"Cgminer -o POOL -u USER -p PASS -I10"

Don't use I=10.
For a 5xxx series card, use I=8 as a MAX.....

That's your problem right there.

For my 5850's, I use

Code:
cgminer -o http://pool:8332 -u user -p pass -I 8 --auto-fan --gpu-engine 900 --gpu-memclock 180 --temp-target 69

With Windows 7, CAT 11.12, SDK 2.1 and CGMiner 2.3.3 this combo yields me just over 380Mh/s and everything stays cool in the process...
(fans under 50% most of the time and 66c to 69c temps).

Check your driver and SDK versions to begin with and work from there.

The only thing I know about Linux for certain is the penguin and the amount of (male) virgins that use it Wink

You could try Kano's guide, or is it Kanoi, it's in his sig. Follow both the Kano and Kanoi guides.   Tongue

For Bitcoin to be a true global currency the value of BTC needs always to rise.
If BTC became the global currency & money supply = 100 Trillion then ⊅1.00 BTC = $4,761,904.76.
