I took your advice and got claymore.. I now have 330 sol/s. Stock bios win7. Card is overclocked pretty nicely. A 100 extra sol/s.. intensity 7. Fan profile is similar to yours running cool at 71
The problem possibly was in intensity 8. In 280X is 3Gb video memory - it enough only for intensity 7 in Claymore 12.5. If miner runs on intensity 8 the speed will be slower because of out of memory. In my system miner don't run in intensuty 8 and 9 saing that not enough video memory. But in other system/driver it can run at intensity 8, but speed wil be much slower...

You have 330 with stock bios and overclock. I have 335 with modded bios, light overclock and downvolting. Power draw of my card lower. Speed the same.

p.s.: omg 86-90-92 degree? 0o
I setted -tt to 72, and -ttli on 80...
I have high temperature of the card because it's not only one in my system block ))))
You think I should try GG miner again with intensity 7?

Sapphire trix isn't let me downvolt. You said you using a certain driver?
I can't reach Claymore's speed with GG on 280X. Just try Intensity 7. Optiminer on 280X gives about 280-300 Sol/s. GG is max 250.

AMD Crimson ReLive 17.4.1 only one driver that give wattman for GCN1 cards and allow to change core voltage for each program by profiles. But it didn't allow to change memory frequences such as overdrive. I write my memory frequence through vbios and use wattman for over/down-volting.
