My poor superclocked 950 can barely get 5400 KH while my overclocked 750 TI can get north of 5200 KH using much less power- is there any more data I can give you to help with dialing in the 950? Intensity for both seems to top out at 20.
There is nothing wrong with your 950 or your config. All 9-series maxwell gpus are poor in lyra2v2 performance compared to 7-series maxwell hash/w wise. 950/60 really suck because of their crippled 128-bit memory lane. Better mine some other algo with them.
980 TIs arent too bad- but I get what youre saying. I think there is some room for optimization on the 950 however- Its should be able to hang and outpace the 750 TI by a wider margin-
Usually I mine Quark- but the payrate has tanked as of late...
The 750ti will go down as "The little engine that could". For what they are capable of power wise they can't be beat. If the other Maxwell cards could give the same performance (hash per wattage per price).
