lol guys.  GPU mining is never dead.  "There is always a coin to mine".  Anyways, yes optiminer is much faster now with v 1.6.0 for R9 models and 280x.  I get 385-400 for 390, 220-230 for 380 and 300 for 280x.  OF course your results will vary depending on what clocks you are running, etc.  But so far it runs good.  Which is why I can't wait to see what claymore has...maybe he delays the new version to be sure of beating those numbers, who knows lol.

Personally, I'm not sure optiminer's v1.6 can be beat, because I think it probably represents the best that can be achieved with current (I don't mean new) GPUs. So, while Claymore will likely match optiminer v1.6 in the near future, I'm not so sure he can surpass it.


I think there's room for more improvement on Hawaii, but for R9 and Rx cards (with 4 memory controllers) Optiminer is close to the limit.


419h/s even 424h/s is possible for r9 390x i think the new version from claymore can maybe hit these peaks with overclocks and a stable one from 410 - 415 h/s
Already in v11.1 two of my cards in de rig have going to this peaks when i was uploading a program on my pc the disk load on my pc was going to 100% in task manager and when i on that moment looked at the miner 2 card where rising to 419 h/s i need say there are more rejects at that moment. When the uploading was done and the disk load in task manager was back on 3% 5% again the cards where back on 380 h/s with less rejects. So i think it is possible to get them stable in a version with these statics and no rejects but like we all see it takes alot off time for a higher stable level
