For the Sapphire R9 290, I only need to specify threads 32765, gpu memory 1350 and I get 880H/s. Changing core clock makes no difference over time (and you SICK/DEAD if you go too high).
It doesn't like memory 1500 much ether, some cards lock up after a while. 1425 gives 890KH/s but 1350 has been rock solid (1% less KH/s and a good night's sleep vs 1% more and checking all the time...hmmmm

).
