Hey guys,
I have two MSI 7970 Twin FrozrIII's and I can't seem to get them to both hash properly in CGMiner.
It's been three days of tweaking settings and changing drivers and I still can't get both cards to hash at 700-750 at the same time.
So, at first, both cards would get to 750ish and then one card would begin drop off. It would keep dropping until it hit 200-300, about 8-10 minutes later.
So I did a ton of Google searching and tried a million things but nothing really worked.
Eventually I updated to the new beta CCC (14.1?) and now my issue is that when I start it with my bat file, one gpu hashes at 580~ and the other hashes at 250-300. The load is maxed out, and it's running the exact same settings as the other card obviously, but it just refuses to work properly.
My .bat is, "-I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192"
^These are my current clock speeds, hash rate, and GPU1 temps.
Stock Clock with a unmodified .bat is getting me 425KH/s on GPU0 and 250 KH/s on GPU1
Stock Clock on a .bat with "-I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192" (which is what I usually use) is getting 510KH/s on GPU0 and 280KH/s on GPU1.
Same deal, GPU1 is always slower than GPU0.
Temps are fine, GPU1 is 78C and GPU0 is 72C. VRM Temps are 90C and 83C, respectively.
I tried swapping cards, and the card in GPU1's bank is always the slow one. So maybe there's something wrong with the board? I have a powered 1x riser on the way, so I can see if its the 3.0x16 slot acting up or something to that effect...
It can't be the card though because it happens to either of them.
I have also noticed that the slow card is has a jumpy VDDC Current, whereas the other one has a steady one. It jumps 20A from 100A to 120A constantly, which certainly seems like an issue.
That would point towards a PSU issue, but I am running two 600w PSUs and it doesn't matter which PSU the card is connected to, it's always the card in the GPU1 bank that has the Voltage fluctuation.
No matter what I try I just can't get the damn cards to behave and just mine at the same speed.
Any suggestions?
