Hello Cryptocoin Community,

i'm currently solo-cpu-mining using this software: http://up.picr.de/27702673ux.png

My problem is that it seems to use 8? (correct me if i'm wrong) cores as you can see on this picture: http://up.picr.de/27702674sk.png
And this of course makes my CPU-temperature going crazy, being on 70+ Celcius / 158 Farenheit in a few minutes.

So my question, do you know what a have to add in my editor file (http://up.picr.de/27702746ri.jpg) to only use fewer cores?

Best Regards and thanks in advance! :)

hello

this may help you a bit https://www.nicehash.com/?p=news&id=20

not to be totally without self interrest please come and take a look at our place getpimp.org and see if your needs can be met with our product if this does not work


with kind regards

-t 24 i use to use my 2 x operton for 24 cores and i like using dark cpuminer its very good for amd chips but looking at you hash rates .. it looks all ready good .. for example 57k x 16 cores if you do have that = 900ks
+ and yes 8 is 0 thur 7 .. 0 = 1 7 = 8

so use -t 4 to reduce to 4 cores

We are very proud to collaborate with tpruvot, Wolf, and the other miner devs to make mining easier and more profitable for you.
tpruvot's cpuminer-multi is actually configured out of the box on PiMP, according to the PiMP 1.9 and 2.0 Users Guide "1.6: Included algorithms and miners" located at https://getpimp.org/guide2/ It mines XMR with the default configuration.

We are Happy to answer any questions! join us in IRC.

Have a great day!

hello sirslayer.
big thank you for answering me  :D
i will try it as soon as i'm home!

to my hashrate, is it really good, 440k for 8 cores or was that a joke? i have no comparsion.
and if i'm mining with 4 cores i'll get ~220k right? :)

Kind Regards

Don't try to mine X algos with cpu, there are assics for this, it's absolutely non profitable.
Better look for some cpu friendly algos like cryptonight.

Boolberry  BBR   is mineable with Cpu  and you can use the gpu too

well not knowing your Intel cpu model, i would think its very good .. here are my stats and hashes.. AMD operton 6174 x 2. each cpu are 12 cores. 2 cpu = 24 cores . each core is average @ 34.5 khash/s and a total of 24 cores = 800+ khash/s with overhead. your cpu does 55 khash/s and if it was a 24 core in theory of up to 1,2+ mhash/s. You have a better single core then my cpu AMD and its about 4 years old.. still not bad for an older design.

and yes .. it should be half.  by using -t (threads) .. -t 4..   and if I use -t 12 (one cpu) its avg 440kh/s ..almost like yours cpu using dark 1.2  what kind of cpu do you have mineityourway?

hello mineityourway

what he is saying is very true
i would like you to see this https://getpimp.org/landing/how-to-mine-crypto-with-your-cpus-the-fastest-and-easiest-way/

that may give you a idea what pimp can do for you

with  kind regards
