Title: Help,amd 6670 Post by: awatson824 on August 19, 2012, 02:28:39 AM ??? I only started mining yesterday, but I've seen people with AMD 6670s getting 100 mh/s but I'm only getting 7.88?
Am I missing something? I bet I am but I don't know what I'm missing cause im a newb to this :/. Sorry if i'm posting this at the wrong place or asking a dumb question. Also I have a amd athlon ii x4 635 processor 2.90 ghz. Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: WorldOfBitcoin on August 19, 2012, 04:32:31 AM I recommend using GUI miner. http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Video-Tweak/GUIMiner.shtml
as an ATi your default should be fine. or a CUDA would work too I think. can you link the card? I have a real hard time believeing a 70$ card can hash at 100m/h http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161386&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-NA-_-NA Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: awatson824 on August 19, 2012, 06:55:12 AM I use that gui miner, and thats my card. I feel dumb for buying it at the retail store insead of online ($120 retail price)
But is 7.88 mh/s a normal speed for this card? Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: legolouman on August 19, 2012, 06:57:46 AM What flags are you using? Are you sure that you have the card selected in GUIMiner?
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison says ~100 mhash Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: awatson824 on August 19, 2012, 07:20:00 AM Yea I selected it in the GUIminer, but I have no idea what flags are :/ can you explain please?
Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: legolouman on August 19, 2012, 04:08:50 PM Yea I selected it in the GUIminer, but I have no idea what flags are :/ can you explain please? In GUIMiner, there is a spot next to device that's labeled 'extra flags', in it, either make sure it is empty, or has the flags -v -f 0 -w 128 in it. Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: cripperz on August 19, 2012, 04:23:19 PM ensure you have the rite sdk installed. Change the flags or try a different miner available in Guiminer.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison should get you some benchmark that was shared by the community. Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: dexvx on August 19, 2012, 06:11:10 PM You are most likely using your CPU to mine.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison An Athlon x4 630 gets around 10 MH/s, which is around the same as what you're getting. Title: Re: Help,amd 6670 Post by: awatson824 on August 19, 2012, 10:14:09 PM OH! I got it, I was CPU mining. :/ I'm dumb
Thanks everyone! |
