Title: Want to put a limit on the bitcoin miner's GPU usage Post by: Lampitosgames on April 06, 2013, 10:10:01 PM that's why I'm here! I'm quite new to all this, and I find it very interesting. I'm not super worried weather I make a ton of money or not, but I would like to have a bitcoin miner up in the background while I browse youtube or play games. I don't want it to be super taxing, maybe only use like 50% of my GPU (I have a gtx 660ti, not fantastic, I know, lol). So far I haven't been able to come up with a way to do this. Or I could run it on my minecraft server computer, where the GPU is nearly never used, but I still don't want to shorten the life of it. Is bitcoin mining bad for your GPU? I don't want to shorten the lifespan of my hardware for something that probably won't get me any money. Any help is much appreciated, thanks :)
