Re: Low Hash- Gigabyte HD 7970(R797OC-3GD) BIOS Flash Help

you dont need to bios flash. scrypt mining is strange voodoo and requires a magic combination of core speed, memory speed, thread concurrency, intensity, and -g switches to get the optimum hashrate without hw errors. The only way to do this is trial and error.

wouldn't flashing allow him to undervolt and raise mem and gup??

That is my take on it as pretty sure that is my issue right now? oh to flash or not to flash

gigabyte triple fan gpus are voltage locked, period. no amount of software changes or bios changes will change the voltage. it's hardware locked because gigabyte is too cheap to to put components on the PCB that allow the user to change voltage. unless you have multimeter probe reading or kill-a-watt reading to prove me wrong, this is what I will continue to believe and spread.

This is not true, with the F62 BIOS it will go down to 0.95v if you set --gpu-engine 700 in cgminer. At 701 it will be 1.2V and at 1001 it will be 1.25V
