Title: Various card's appropriate flags
Post by: Sir_Winsteak on June 17, 2011, 03:42:32 AM
Hey guys, I had a question (maybe more),

I have a few different GPU's that I want to use for mining. I was wondering what kind of flags would be best in general if there is a list of flags & their corresponding cards, or even just a run down of what flags there are and what they mean. I looked around a bit and couldn't find much information. If none of this even exists, what should I use for a 9800 GTX+? Thanks!

If you've got that card lying around, fine, but don't buy an nVidia card for mining. They have fewer cores and so they're slower miners.
