Title: 99% CPU Usage During each DAG Work File
Post by: wingman1111 on July 07, 2017, 12:57:04 AM
Anyone else have the above problem or know if this is being addressed.

It's causing my set up to become highly unstable!

Currently just mining etherium and this happens on all recent releases of CUDA miners

Running win 10 4gb DDR4 ram and Pentium G440 3.3 ghz 6xGTX 1060's

I was told expensive cpu wasn't important for mining but now I'm questioning this!

if you have ethminer take the new 0.11 version (not the 0.11.0rc or something like that) - the previous version has an issue on weak CPU's

That's the one I tried it one.  Might have to get a quad core cpu in that case unless there's a fix for this issue!

I mine with G4400 Celeron and 6 x 1070 - just with the rc1 i'd an issue but that was fixed in the final release ethminer-0.11.0-Windows.zip -> https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases
