Title: Howdy! Been mining LTC for a week. Post by: Ness on December 13, 2013, 09:08:31 AM Howdy folks. I came into this about a week ago not knowing a single thing. I did all the googling I could and I'm currently mining with my Nvidia gaming rig. I know, it's not ideal. Might not even be worth it, but it's definitely got my interest. Perhaps when I'm not poor I'll put together a proper mining rig. Until then, I'm doing the best I can with cudaminer and hoping some advancements come along to improve my hash rate. Here is what I have managed so far. Peaking at 453 kh/s combined.
Hash rate screenshot (http://starmansuper.com/mine/myhashes.png) I'm running an i7 3770k @4.6ghz, EVGA Z77 FTW mobo, 2 EVGA 670 FTW's that are OC'ed as stable as I could get them, 8gb of ram.

Post by: awais3344 on December 13, 2013, 09:38:56 AM buy a r9 280x. get a cheap motherboard, little ram under 4gb will be fine. put a cheap 80gb or something like that hard drive. it works fine. No need to waste money on things that you dont need when it comes to mining. You will get 730khash ;)

I'd agree with the previous poster about getting the best rig you possibly can because mining is popular and you don't want to waste time with a rig that won't produce over time. Very glad to have you here, peace.
