Ok I've added a git branch called "reorder". If you git pull and then "git checkout reorder" you can try it.

excuse me for being lazy but I keep seeing a lot of talk about 5970 , ive been too busy to keep up with the conversation - but if someone could tell me whats going on in respect  the 5970 development I would really appreciate it

my 5970 gets 380 mhash per core in windows 7 with the ccc 11.8

is it possible to do better?

thanks in advance for filling me in!

Good news and bad news, ckolivas:

All of my previous 7970 testing was getting bottlenecked by CPU usage.  This is the reason why the hashrate fluctuated so heavily.  I enabled the other 2 cores on this rig and I'm getting much better results.  I usually leave 2 cores disabled and undervolt the CPU to save power.

Now that the other 2 cores are enabled, I can get around 633Mhash/sec with the poclbm kernel and the same clocks used in the other testing.  I say "around 630Mhash/sec" because the hash rate bounces around quite a bit due to the CPU still being bottlenecked.  If I only run CGMiner against 1 card, the hash rate starts around 610Mhash, gradually increases to 633, falls down again, etc etc.  Running CGMiner like this averaged 612Mhash/sec over 5 minutes.

I'll toy around with Phatk and the modified version you posted, and then report back.

Turning intensity down to 9 makes CPU usage sink to almost nothing.  Increasing it to 10 (or above) completely saturates 1 core...

tru, but doesn't 79xx like the 10 ?  

I am about to try the poclbm for the first time with the 79....

edit:   YAAAAAHHHH

edit2:  looks like I need to add mem now to the webmon

do I have to get older bin files to get the hashrate your getting ?

I have never used poclbm before, so I dont have any  

GPU 1:   54.0C   3188RPM    50% |    557.5/559.0Mh/s |    1100Mhz    1020Mhz    1.17V    A:21   R:0   HW:0   U:7.15/m    I: 9


edit:  I set one of the cards to 10, getting only 1 Mh more then the 9's.

btw,  gpu-vddc did not change the voltage on the card.  were you able to change voltage.?  and please someone answer the 'older bin' question?

Yes, it works fine on windows x64 3x6990. It seems to me the order of gpus is reversed, but I don't have any proof Just want to confirm that new exe is working.

Thanks very much. Yes the order will often be reversed due to mobo+os+drivr discrepancies.. The order should now most accurately represent what is happening physically with the cards.

 It's possible to set additional phatk2 commands like PLATFORM=1 BFI_INT WORKSIZE=256 AGGRESSION=12 FASTLOOP=False, etc? I lose performance without them , with Phoenix I've 223 mhash/s, with cgminer - 216 mhash/s.
