Title: Not sure if I can mine with this card? nVidia Corporation G71 [GeForce 7900 GS
Post by: eof on April 13, 2011, 03:50:04 PM
I know it's ancient.  But it is sitting idle 80% of it's life so if I could get some coins trickling in that would be great.

Can I use this with any of the open sourced software out there, or am I too old?  If so, can someone recommend a card I can plug into the same slot that would work?

No, you can't.
8200+ is needed.
