Title: Miner for: Nvidia / neoscrypt / Optimus
Post by: 1337leet on October 18, 2015, 07:58:17 PM
Hey,

I'm searching for a mining software that is able to mine neoscrypt with Nvidia optimus graphics cards.

All I tried didn't work.

They can't find my GPU or doesn't even start or doesn't support neoscrypt or used my onboard graphics...

hmmm, there isn't such thing as optimus gpu's, optimus is just a feature to optimize power consumption on laptops...
so this all end up at the card number you have...
You will probably have to make sure that the nvidia gpu is selected before firing ccminer (probably the reason why you end up on the iGPU)
It will also depends on the compute version of your card..
but again, as it has been repeated several time, it isn't a good idea to mine with a laptop, you might damage both the laptop and the graphic card as laptop cooling system isn't appropriate for mining.

I tried all - I can't select the Quadro GPU. It's will only work with 3D calclulations as far as I know.
