Radeon HD7850/7870 cgminer Config Settings (Bitcoin)
I am currently working on optimizing a new Bitcoin mining rig to get the most MHash/s out of it possible. The mining rig currently has one Saphire Radeon HD7850 in it getting around 330MHash/s with little modifications. Currently the settings seem to work the same for both the 7850 and the 7870.
