Title: First post and an interesting question to the "experts",,Asus EAH3870 X2 1GB Post by: hitndahedfred on April 25, 2013, 11:28:20 AM I have a pretty nice Video card I have been using for a while and would like to use it to mine litecoin.
I have been CPU mining for a few weeks with fair results but I want to start this card working It Is an Asus EAH3870 X2 1GB, It is AMD powered and a has a hefty amount of computing power. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2008/05/08/asus-eah3870-x2-1gb-graphics-card/1 I ran GPUID and saw this card does NOT support openCL but was linked to the AMD APP SDK site for more software. My question is can I use SDK APP to link my GPU to my CPUs in the box I am currently experimenting with? I have the "newest" drivers that are available and still no luck The Biostar mobo IS running AMD X2 procs at 3.6Ghz and I also have 6 gigs of ram. Does anyone have any tips or ideas on how to get openCL to "work" with this card? I am litecoin mining ,, sorry for not saying earlier. I appreciate any and all replies. "hit" Title: Re: First post and an interesting question to the "experts",,Asus EAH3870 X2 1GB Post by: greyhawk on April 25, 2013, 11:32:24 AM That's not a "pretty nice card". That's a stone age HD 3870. It's so old it's not even listed in the usual hardware comparison charts, which means most likely no one ever got it to run with a gpu miner.

It has served well for years. But it is not worth messing with then I take it so,,,,, Off to get some new stuff then. Thanks for the reply even tho the "sarcasm" was not needed.

You did link to a 5 year old review of your card that you say is nice.... I'd say it was a little deserved.
