I notice a hashrate drop to below 6mh/s and rise back again with xI=65.
Drop to xI=64 (6274kh/s) and is not dropping anymore.(10kh/s or so)

Edit2
As u can see the Accepted shares are calculate fine in sgminer, but the above value isn't.
Is it hard to change the above value to the value sgminer is showing with "G".?

edit3
Still stable after 3 hours.

Restarted and see if the other algos also be stable...6.346kh/s Shocked

Sigh... every time I get close someone has to leap farther ahead.   Wink

Looks like you encountered the same thing I did with the x-65/x-64 threshold. I'm running x-68 since last night, averaging 5.96 Mhash/GPU across 4 290X's over 12 hours. Stable apart from a renter trying to load dead pools for a while, LOL. I get up to around 6.17 Mhash on one of the GPU's but they keep dropping off and don't hold consistently at the highest speeds. But I'm still at 1020/1350 on the clocks so that explains much of my shortfall, I'm sure.

On scrypt I had all 4 of my GPU's individually tuned to four different engine and memory speeds for the fastest possible stable speed. I'm going to try the latest builds and settings you and badman74 helpfully shared, and then see if I can push individual GPU's higher. Thanks again!

EDIT: Dumb question - I've never messed with voltage settings before as I didn't want to fry anything. But I see in bullus' profile that he has vddc set to 0. Does that mean "go with the default setting"? As I understand it the reference voltage on a 290X is 1.0 volt. So if I wanted to try cutting that by 10%, should I put "0.9" in the vddc line, or "-0.1"?  Reading the docs would have me trying the former, but bullus' example makes me think the latter is right.

That's funny cause 1 renter told I was selling a 4.2mh/s rig but I have 9.8mh/s.(4x7950)
At the graph at betarigs u see fluctuating hashrates but can't see that at sgminer like i saw it with xI=65.(290x)
Average is still 9.6mh/s, a bit lower than normal, but no way 4.2mh/s. Is there a tweak for flat hashrates? Decreasing intensity?



gpu-vddc is set at 0 ,because I set it with msi afterburner for testing. At github guide u should set it like "1.000"
