Community.
I built a miner last night and today I am testing it out and I am getting 271 from GPU1 and 541 on GPU2. Windows 7 32bit, GUIminer, Catalyst 12.4, Afterburner.
What would make GPU1 run so much lower? Its almost 50%.
Temp on GPU1 - 67
Temp on GPU2 - 43
Note: GPU1 CPU usage is showing near 94% and GPU2 is between 90-100%
Voltage Settings in Afterburner
Core Voltage - 962 Core Clock - 1000 Memory Clock 710 Memory Voltage 1600
Please let me know where I need to start trouble shooting? Thanks

You should try cgminer What do I need installed to run it? Also, are you saying this is the magic bullet? Can someone please look at those settings and see if any red flags are there? Thanks Much, Dalkore

I thought that was odd as well. GPU1 is running at 69 degrees, 91% gpu usage but only 280 mhash? Is there any setting in Afterburner and Catalyst I need to make sure i have on or off?

Everything can be done from cgminer So what you are saying is the my miner is the reason for this slow down? I am going to upgrade to CGminer then. I am just surprised this piece of software would run one GPU at 50% of another.

I believe the gpu being stuck at 2d clocks is a driver issue.. not a miner issue.. but who knows....

Recommended driver for a 7970? Should I use the disk it came with? I went to ATI and got the latest version from them.

UPDATE:
Ok I am now running CGMiner and I think I have the hang of it. This is what I am seeing on the slow card it is showing:
Engine Clock 500mhz
Memory Clock 150 mhz.
Vddc: .950
Powertune: 1%
Activity: 53%
Now I see the problem but when I change the values is does update on this GPU. What would prevent CGminer from changing these values?

That should be fine. I've found that 12.4 has a very peculiar bug with my tri-fire setup. Namely that my 2nd and 3rd GPU both run at 50% (and get half the hashrate) 12.3 resolves the issues for me.

Thank you kindly. I uninstalled 12.4 and afterburner and just installing 12.4 only. If that doesnt help then you have given me my next option. Please keep the suggestions coming Thank you. P.S. Your right, once you CGmine, you never go back. Command line I love you!!!

Please try to install MSI Afterburner or GPU-Z and monitor your clock frequency. It's possible that one GPU is running at a lower clock frequency.

12.3 worked as in now they are both giving around 550 each, which is around stock. Now I am using CGminer and it doesn't seem to implement my gpu changes like lowering the memory clock, lowering the voltage or changing the core clock. I have 12.3 install and no afterburner. What would cause this? Do I need to modify the config file instead of doing through the command line? Thanks much, Dal

No need to install with 12.3. Already comes with newer OpenCL drivers.

I believe the 50% activity has something to do with the card being stuck in 2d mode.... The card get's hot but doesnt run very fast.. I have the same issue with a 5850 at times....
