750 KH/s steady and ONLY 1 FTC in 16 hours work ?
-
latest Catalyst I believe is 13.11
and also AMD-APP-SDK-v.2.9 -
Well you shouldn’t be getting those hardware errors with those tame settings, you should just be getting a low hash rate.
Have you uninstalled and reinstalled your drivers?
-
aaaaaaaaaaah 0 errors now!
with intensity 11 and concurrency 16384
ok I’m getting somewhere!
at least there isn’t anything totally wrong with the set-up. that’s all I want. would you mind double check it looks fine? I’ll work on getting higher KH/s slowly tweaking…

You normally set your thread concurrency, then memclock, then engine…
Clear all the bin files out of your CGMiner directory and run it without a thread concurrency setting, it will then give you a good starting TC in the first bin file it creates…

ok I’m getting 774KH/s now with these and no error
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer.exe -o stratum.wemineftc.com:4444 --scrypt -u krasticrypto.1 -p xxx -I 20 -g 1 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 24576 --gpu-memclock 1250 --gpu-engine 855 --gpu-powertune 20 --gpu-fan 70 --temp-target 75 --temp-overheat 90 --temp-cutoff 95not sure what fixed it but I guess running in command those 2 lines? and fine tweaking? mmm…
I’ll post the config somewhere if I obtain better results.THANK YOU SUO MUCH EVERYONE!!!

Nice work dude.
Now edit the password from your post above and change it at the mining pool. lol 8)

Grab the model number of your card, then take a look here https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison
You’ll get your next set of gains from tweaking Thread Concurrency, GPU Memclock and GPU Engine.
If you hit G then C you can play with memclock and engine on the fly within CG Miner.
You want to find the optimal ratio between memclock and engine, normally around the .57-.6 mark.
Enjoy, this is the fun part ;p

changed the passwords…thanks for the tip…ufff…
and yes now that is a matter of tweaking I’ll enjoy it…now that I lost half of my hair over HW errors and crashes…
gosh what a newbie…ahah
thanks so much! -
ok in Catalyst software I found these info.

which one is the model number of the card? so I can compare and add on “litecoin hardware compare” page?
I inserted the card default Core Clock as Engine Clock of 947 MHz, and found the best performance (so far) :818 KH/s average (it touches 850 at times), temperature of 79 C with fan at 70%.
this is the .batsetx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

R9290-4GD5
Asus only make one 290 so it’s an easy one…
They only have the sapphire and Gigabyte versions on their, so you’ll just have to see what other people are doing and have a crack at those yourself… Look at all the variations on there, but I’m fairly sure you’ll get best results with TC 32765, memclock 1500 and engine 1000.
I’ve got 270x, 280x, 290 & 290x cards on my rigs and they all perform best with memclock 1500.
So chuck that TC in, set your memclock to 1500, set your engine to 1000 and then adjust engine up or down by 10 and see what happens.
I’m fairly sure you should be getting max speed with those settings… If she’s getting a little hot take powertune down to 10 or 15 and she should be happy with no real loss in performance…
-
Oops I didn’t see your TC comment, then leave it at that and take Memclock to 1500, then play with engine…
-
Memlock is already 1500, glad that’s the best option.
I’ll try lowering down the powertune, if that keeps the temperature down then is great.
and will try tweaking the PGU.
thanks again
