Title: Using GPU to mining and still use the pc like normal with onboard vga Post by: sterob on April 11, 2013, 10:06:11 AM Hi, i am mining ltc now with my pc. I notice that mining only use GPU so i am looking for away to run cgminer with my 7970 while still able to use my pc normally utilising onboard vga (for video and internet).
I went to bios setting, choose main display as onboard vga. I was able to go into windows successful. However, MSI afterburn doesnt work. It only display 1 GPU - 7970 but no onboard vga, and i cant change voltage, core/mem clock, fan even though GPU-Z detected both. Also, how can i config the .bat file for the cgminer? I used GUIminer and it seem to work fine, 450 khash at stock speed (1070/1400 core/mem).

Also, how do i adjust memory voltage, core voltage and fan speed?

Your on-board likely can't be overclocked. They aren't designed for that, especially when a lot of them don't even have heat-sinks :-\Title: Re: Using GPU to mining and still use the pc like normal with onboard vga Post by: sterob on April 11, 2013, 10:51:59 AM It only display 1 GPU - 7970 but no onboard vga, and i cant change voltage, core/mem clock, fan even though GPU-Z detected both.
