Re: 350-375 khash/s on HD 7970

I would try to set in the Flag Box "-v 2 -w 256" or even "-v 4 -w 236".

For further help you should check if anything graphical runs in background (video,music etc playing). Very bad on GPU usuage is the always loved Flash(tm) plugin of your browser.
Open your Task Manager and check for CPU Load.

otherwise i can suggest using cgminer (find it on http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer)
there is a very easy to understand manual for configurating. Another big advantage is the very well output of the app. So Error Detection is easier.
use --debug for a lot of output.

my TipBox:):  1Nrs2jTZddhhZEbawR27ambdiz7FnvdBH9

With "-v 2 -w 256" my hash rate has doubled, but 700-800 khash/s stil seems low?

The CPU load is 100% and when checking with GPU-Z the GPU load is 44-5%. So it would seem that it is running on the CPU rather than the GPU despite i selected device "[0-0] Tahiti"?

I would really prefer using GUIMiner, but I will take a look at cgminer.

350-375 khash/s on HD 7970

Hi,

I wanted to try this bitmining thing on my HD 7970 gpu, as I have never done any bitmining before I decided to use GUIMiner.
I created an OpenCL miner, and started mining, but I am only getting 350-375 khash/s, and everybody else is talking Mhash/s not khash/s.
So what could I be doing wrong?
Please keep in mind that I am a total noob at bitmining.

Best regards
