Use puddinpop CUDA miner: http://forum.bitcoin.org/?topic=2444.0 or my modification: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=27907.0 Title: Re: Point me in the right direction!

Title: Re: Point me in the right direction! Post by: ShadesOfMarble on July 15, 2011, 02:54:59 PM Simplest way would be to get GUIMiner (nice graphical user interface), select File > New Miner > New CUDA Miner.
But you should really get an ATI card for mining bitcoins... Even a 5770 is faster (twice as fast) than a GTX 580 when it comes to bitcoin mining. Title: Re: Point me in the right direction! Post by: feelz on July 15, 2011, 03:21:45 PM install the graphic driver from nvidia. Now go to Amd graphic driver page and look for individual download option and get the opencl drivers. This will allow guiminer to recognized your nvidia card as opencl compatible. From here you can use opencl or phoenix miner doesnt matter tbh. i preferred opencl.
for tags you can use -w128 and -f75 if your working on the computer if not u can use a lower value n get a few extra mhash Title: Re: Point me in the right direction!

Try not to use them, and invest into some Radeon 6970's. I would also check how much it costs in electricity and see if its still profitable. Getting a decent Radeon card would get your ROI back much quicker. Title: Re: Point me in the right direction! Post by: macharborguy on July 16, 2011, 02:29:35 PM i had an NVidia GTX450, it was only able to pull off 33 Megahashes/sec. I switched to a 6870 Radeon HD by VisionTek and it can do around 250 Megahashes/sec. The card cost about $50 more, gave me minor gaming performance increases, yet was able to do 7.5x the Bitcoin mining performance.
