Title: I'm new to mining Post by: thewerx on March 13, 2013, 12:18:20 AM I have a fairly new personal computer that i will be mining in the background. ive been using kivs miner and ive been mining from slushs pool at about 480Mhash/s. my question is, should i run a different miner? Is there anything i can do program wise ( Besides OC ) to make it go faster? Any tips or reference pages i can read? any help would be amazing.

I have a 6990 and cant get more than about 600mh in a windows miner phoenix 2... GuiMiner I was gettin about 500 and tons of having to stop and start. Same card with bamt gets me about 725mh, also pheonix2. I think the main difference other than windows/linux is the aggression setting.
