Title: So you can't mine scrypt-n with 2GB of ram? Post by: giveBTCpls on April 04, 2014, 03:00:51 PM Will it be slower or i just doesn't work? I want to know before I bother downloading the miner, setting a worker and so on.

At one point I was mining script n with 3gb of system RAM (using a single GPU with 2gb of video RAM) with no major decrease in performance (1-2 kh/s lower).

But ive head it doesnt even work (as it doesnt even open) with 2GB. Im too lazy to set the whole thing. Can anyone tell me? Title: Re: So you can't mine scrypt-n with 2GB of ram?

Depends on the card... it definitely won't work with a 290 or 290X for sure Title: Re: So you can't mine scrypt-n with 2GB of ram?

Depends on the card... it definitely won't work with a 290 or 290X for sure im talking about memory ram. They meant GPU ram? or what. I have a R7850 Title: Re: So you can't mine scrypt-n with 2GB of ram? Post by: sonysasankan on April 04, 2014, 06:20:51 PM Will it be slower or i just doesn't work?

They meant GPU ram? or what. I have a R7850 They're talking about system ram as well. I havent tried 7850 or 280x with a 2GB stick. But scrypt-n definitely needs more system RAM than plain scrypt. Anyway 2GB is too low even then... it willbe mostly used by the OS. You will need Windows 7 minimum for the drivers to detect newer R9 cards, and I the 280x is a renamed 7850 if im not mistaken. |
