Anyone mining here with an old R9 290 ?

Basically it seems with every new DAG, the speed is slowing down more and more.

I remember under stock clocks I would get like 26.5MH/s but now its down to 24.7MH/s with the same stock settings.

I am also using the DAG fix drivers and it fixed the slowdown on the RX GPUs but not on the older R9 GPUs.


Anyone else getting this issue and know of a fix?

Does it use less energy than the old DAG?

Maybe a little less energy, but not much significantly less.

Basically when they run slower they use less compute power so it uses less power overall because the compute is waiting for the memory data first and if the memory runs slower then it bottle necks the computing speed.
