Title: Pooled Mining Questions? Does bitcoind server need to be generating if my gpu is
Post by: redditorrex on May 05, 2011, 03:57:53 AM
Pooled Mining Questions? My cpu is nothing, and I can live with my gpu being tied up completely.  When I rpc connect to the server, does that sever need to be generating to be sending and receiving work to my network remote (gpu)computers ?  when connected they show they are crunching at X rate.

No, don't enable coin generation on the Bitcoin server. That's for CPU mining with the built-in inefficient miner.
