I'm a first time user of this program.Thought I would give it a try today.
It works lovely for all my gpu's except one.I have 2 5770 @960/300 -I 7,9.
2 5870 @ 950-955/215 -I 9,9.I used the same clocks with phoenix 1.6.2,never had a problem.
The miner with the 2 5870's uses an intel e-5300 cpu, which I underclocked  to 1.2 Ghz to save power.
The problem I have is that the 5870 that is clocked at 950/215,always gets pronounced dead by cgminer after about 30-50 min.
I switched this particular card back to Phoenix and it's been doing it's thing for hours now.
I prefer all my cards to be on one efficient miner.Any help would be welcome!



Thanks  Smiley


cgminer is so efficient you will need to turn down your OC.  Try it, then notice that you STILL get better MHash/s.  I actually had to turn mine down on a 1.x.x version because of this, and had to turn it down again in 2.0.6, but I'm still getting higher MHash/s now than I was with the 1.x.x version before I had to turn it down.  Note that it may take a few trials to find your new sweet spot.
