Title: Re: Hello Post by: nickyjcallus on November 25, 2013, 09:51:09 PM oh yeah nearly forgot this 5post thing sucks lol Certainly does. Especially the whole requirement to type several sentences. I mean you'd think some people might abuse that by typing replies that aren't even related to the subject just to get past it! Hopefully people don't do that.

p.s this 360sec post delay, is it always on or just because i'm new? finding it really annoying, already written this reply 5 times now lol would've been 8 times now but thank god for copy and paste ;) Title: Re: Hello Post by: 2fast4u0 on November 25, 2013, 10:35:59 PM NVidia cards suck at mining, but you could try mining with a different miner program.

It'll decrease as your activity increases. Title: Re: Hello Post by: stormio on November 26, 2013, 07:33:28 AM i'm currently mining with GUIminer and my card is nice and stable with no heat issues whatsoever, got a couple of block erupters in the mail so think I will leave things as they are till I get them up and running then its goodbye to gpu mining altogether and hello full on pcgaming again lol
Really hope it decreases quickly Jacce, and thx all for the replies and advice. |
