Hey folks,

Sorry about the late replies and thank you all for chiming in, the forum didn't send any notifications despite it being enabled for me.

I'll be in touch shortly.

My rig is only 2x7850 @ 650MH/s.

I'll get in touch via PM.

Hi,

We're looking for a serious miner in Montreal, Quebec (do you live and breath mining?) for a creative fun project. We don't want any bitcoins, just looking for someone really into it willing to talk.

I built my own little mining rig for the project but it's, well, shoddy and pathetic.

We can't offer much in return but we can take you to a pizza place that takes bitcoins for 'za, on us!

Thanks!

Oh, and if this is in the wrong sub-forum, move away and sorry in advance.

Great to meet you all!

Thanks for sharing. I thought it would be low, but not that low. Isn't really surprising I guess.

Regarding the issue at hand, was I mistaken to believe the the GPU in the A-series was somehow separate from the CPU?

I sort of imagined that I could run the GPU at full tilt without using the CPU cycles and therefore reduce heat/power consumption. I might as well tackle my assumption before tackling the physical problem itself.

Good point. I tried hashing for litecoins on a quad-core Xeon and the power requirements were through the roof for what was a very poor rate.

I can't seem to even find an BIOS/UEFI option to allow both, even though there seems be a lot of dual-GPU marketing rhetoric.

I do imagine if you had an array of machines and could tap into the unused on-board GPU, a lot of the "little" workers could add up with no noticeable effect on the end user!

Either way, I'll keep digging!

Hi there, long time lurker, first post.

I have an A-series APU in my first little rig and I was wondering if anyone had managed to get the GPU therein, limited as it may be, to work alongside bigger discreet GPUs.

I had to disable it to get the system to post with two discreet GPUs installed and have no idea if such a thing could work, but it would be nice to put the little guy to work, even if we're only talking a few extra Mh/s.
