Title: guiminer started eating my CPU Post by: tonto on June 18, 2011, 04:10:19 PM Hey all, just installed another 5770 (already have one), and I started back up guiminer and had a couple of my miners take the new card, and all a sudden my CPU spiked to 100%. I can't seem to bring it back down short of using the -s flag, but then my GPUs take a hit. :(
so right now I have a happy medium of -s0.005 until I can find a solution. Thanks! Title: Re: guiminer started eating my CPU Post by: klaaster on June 18, 2011, 04:15:59 PM If you use phoenix, try to set AGGRESSION=9 or lower, with higher Numbers over 9, CPU usage grows.

Download Version 06/14 and go on [File] -> New miner -> phoenix miner You can find good flags for all cards here : https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison With the flag AGRESSION you can control how much computing power is taken, higher numbers, more cpu usage, more lags on the Desktop, but higher MH rates. http://www7.pic-upload.de/17.06.11/spyi2l97gigg.jpg |
