Title: Litecoin mining with cgminer and cgeasy Post by: klondike_bar on January 05, 2013, 05:02:01 AM i am trying out litecoin mining on my laptop (i7 620 CPU and NVS-3100m GPU), but it seems only the GPU is producing any work (and only ~4.3khash/s).
i configured with easycg to create the following batch file: cgminer --scrypt -o http://mine.pool-x.eu:8337 -u klondike_bar.1 -p x --shaders 40 --intensity 12 --worksize 128 -g 1 it seems that only the GPU is creating hashes, despite being under the idea that my CPU should be able to provide sufficient hashrate as well (especially in 64-bit environment?) also, can anyone clarify whether theres further tweaks i should employ? what is the effect of worksize?

As a result i moved from 3.7khash/s to 5khash/s and reduced hardware error rate by 80%.
still feels low, even for a laptop GPU, plus i feel like im missing out by not having it utilize my CPU (i7 620 mobile quad-core) at the same time. any advice would be great, as the first-time setup is always the toughest Title: Re: Litecoin mining with cgminer and cgeasy Post by: SAC on January 05, 2013, 08:10:32 PM with some slight alterations, ive underclocked the core and memory speeds by about 5%, and returned the worksize to 64.
