Quote from: dirtriderdan on April 17, 2013, 03:53:30 AM remember you can daisey chain psus to keep it cheap too. Perhaps you already have some lower wattage (still good) ones. yikes, how do you do that? isn't that a fire hazard

Quote from: Kinetic915 on April 17, 2013, 01:14:20 AM What happens when you find a block? if you are in a pool, nothing, you don't even know it if you solo, it looks like someone sent you 25BTC exchept it says "mined"

random thought: sometimes when you mine with both GPU, and CPU(so cpu is at 100%), the GPU gives a better hash rate! something called "pci express throttling" some motherboards do

Quote from: ProfLayton on April 16, 2013, 03:16:24 AM I have been wanting to build a dedicated miner for a little while now, and I figured I should post some questions so I don't end up wasting money and time. When it comes to a GPU miner, do I need to worry about my CPU at all? Can I buy a cheap/non-powerful cpu and be perfectly fine? I would think so, but I am not 100% sure how exactly the miners work exactly, still trying to figure that out. Also, a little off topic, is there a way to daisy-chain together GPUs for extra power? Or would I have to just use each one as a separate device mining (using GUIMiner)? Thanks in advance for bitcoin, just GPU. cpu and ram dont matter buy the cheapest AMD cpu and 2GB ram and you should be fine. for litecoin, I think cpu+ram play a part (small part) but it's still on the GPU
