Ok I'm ready to burn my computer.  Someone please help me.  I have a R280X that runs Cryptonite at 485h/s and according to the charts should run Equihash around 290 h/s.  I'm running claymore 12.6 on Slushpool and when the miner starts it does 275h/s.  It then begins to throttle down in steps down to 145 h/s and sometimes lower.  I recently watch it go as low as 40 h/s before climbing back up to 145 h/s.
Does anybody know why the rates are so low, and also the -i and -il commands do nothing to the hashrate.
I'm running the "blockchain" drivers but had the same problem when running AMD 15.2.
Any ideas?
Bob

Need afterburner and set the fan speed to 64% with -25% power. At least on my 290x's. Otherwise it throttles on stock fan speeds/curves. Also slushpool is losing you money unless you dont pay for electricity, even then altcoins will bring more profit, ethereum is easy to trade for bitcoin.
