Title: What's Wrong? Post by: Ben on June 12, 2011, 09:59:36 AM Just joined the Pool BitCoin.lc. Followed there little guide on how to setup GUIMiner so i can start mining but i have no idea if its doing what its ment to. I didn't get any errors when connecting, its all showing me my Hash's (Currently 1.3Mhash/s, is that good?)
The hash is going up and down but nothing else seems to change such as the Accepted/Stale just sits at 0. Am i doing something wrong or does it take some time before it changes?

Ben 1.3 Mhash is extremely low. A single ATI 5870 can put out up to ~400 MHash. If you are paying for electricity the amount of mining you are going to make with 1.3 Mhash is going to cost substantially more than you are going to make. here is a good profit calculator that takes into account startup and operating costs. http://bitcoinx.com/profit/index.php (http://bitcoinx.com/profit/index.php) Title: Re: What's Wrong?

Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: swusc2 on June 12, 2011, 10:06:28 AM I only have 1 card which is Sapphire HD 6850 1GB. You should be getting between 170-250 Mhash. If you describe your setup more accurately and settings it would be a lot easier to help you. Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: Ben on June 12, 2011, 10:09:28 AM Mobo - ASUS M4A79XTD EVO
CPU - AMD Athlon II x4 640 GPU - Sapphire HD 6850 1GB RAM - Corsair 4GB PSU - Corsiar 500w HDD - 500GB I thought 1.2 ment 1,200? Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: swusc2 on June 12, 2011, 10:13:43 AM 1 GHash = 1000 Mhash
1 Mhash = 1000 kHash Make sure you have your video card selected in Guiminer and not your CPU. Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: Ben on June 12, 2011, 10:15:31 AM Right anyway still nothing has changed on the miner. I see people with CMD open, i have not done anything in CMD? could this be why its not working.

I can't really help you since you aren't really giving me much to work with. Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: Ben on June 12, 2011, 10:29:15 AM Im new to all this... If you wont information then ask for it, i don't know what im ment to be looking for.
Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: swusc2 on June 12, 2011, 10:30:23 AM Do you have your GPU selected in Guiminer?
Title: Re: What's Wrong? Post by: Ben on June 12, 2011, 10:31:13 AM No, that's what im trying to get now. For some reason it doesn't show up so im just about to update my GPU driver.

If you are using Linux, keep in mind that you can't use the opensource radeon driver, since it doesn't support OpenCL yet. |
