Title: How to get starting to mine Ethereum
Post by: Valnurat on August 09, 2017, 08:46:02 AM
Hi.

I have at my work a lot of Nvida Quadro 2000 cards.

I will try for fun to mine ethereum, but I don't no where to start.

What software and what pool should I use?

Hope a kind soul will help me out.

I believe you need 3 GB of memory on GPU's.

But it can be done. I know it might not give me any profit. I just want to get startet and see how it works.

Try to go to ethermine.org and look into how to section. You will find all the answers you need there.

 ???

I don't see any "How To Section" and I can't see how to sign up in the ppol.

A simple minergate GUI app will get you going with Ethereum mining. They are good with NVIDIA cards.
But I think you'd need at least 3GB graphics card to at least start as my 2 GB GTX 820m showed not enough memory error.
