Hello everyone about my r9 290x cards ..

aztecminer

i wanted to get into the mining forum to ask some questions. I will ask here for now.

i have two asus amd radeon r9 290x video cards …

this is my script i have been running so far:

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp//xxx.xxx.com:3333 -u username -p password -I 15

my cards are hashing at 630kh/s with temps of 95 …

these cards run fine at temp of 95 and according to toms hardware review they will be fine at this temps … however if i try to hash the full power of these cards the temps rise higher to 97+ and that is when i turn them off . these cards are capable of hashing at 900 - 1000 kh/s … how can i achieve higher hash rate and lower temps ?? do i adjust my cgminer script settings above ??

thanks everyone …

In regards to heat:

Are you running an open case design?

The cards could be too close together or don’t have sufficient airflow.

As far as tweaking settings go, I wouldn’t know. I’m on an R9 270.
