to be honest i am disappointed the given specs 450sol for Nanos are no way near (between 395-410) i think voor Nano the speed is about the same as 11.1, Optiminer is quicker (atleast for Nanos)

"-powlim 50" option + drivers 15.12 or 16.3.2 is the solution.

ASM does not work for R9 Fury with any intensity on 17.1.1 driver. Is this expected?

For the Fury's i would return to 16.3.2 drivers

This is not possible as it does not support RX series and i have a mixed rig.
Still is there anyone that uses different drivers or have mixed rig either?


16.3.2 supports Polaris (RX) cards. 15.12 is the older one that doesn't support RX series.

16.3.2 does not support Polaris. See http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMD-Radeon-Software-Crimson-Edition-16-3-2.aspx
16.6.2 is the first driver to support Polaris.

I can't make a test right now but maybe there is a mistake on AMD's site. Anyway.. Claymore use 16.3.2 for testing his miner on RX series. And also he recommends 16.3.2 for RX series (Polaris cards).

I use Crimson 16.7.3 for both RX and R9 series too. So there is no problem if you have a mixed (R9 Fury / RX 4xx) rig.

For mixed rigs Fury + RX4xx you won't be able to get full speed from Fury because latest good drivers for Fury is 16.3.2 and they don't support Polaris. 16.6.2 and higher support Polaris but they cannot provide full speed for Fury.
