Title: Question about video cards mining speeds Post by: deanorn on August 06, 2011, 02:11:24 PM Hello I'm pretty new to bitcoins so I'm hoping someone can help me. Currently I'm using this Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138318 with this processor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103944. I have a 5770 and a 4870 on it using a 630wpower supply. Just mining with the 5770 I get a little over 200 mhash, just mining with the 4870 I get about 80 mhash. But when I start mining with both at the same time the 5770 drops down to about 120 and the 4870 drops to about 40.
Anyone know what could be causing this? Title: Re: Question about video cards mining speeds Post by: deanorn on August 06, 2011, 02:49:48 PM Don't think this would affect it but I am also using Wifi and not a wired connection for this pc.

Title: Re: Question about video cards mining speeds Post by: deanorn on August 06, 2011, 04:19:53 PM Running Windows XP pro 32 bit, drivers 11.7. Looking at the cpu it is pretty much maxed right now with just the 5770 running. And I've tried using poclbm-GUI miner, and Cgminer.
