Pls and thx

Wow why I love the current one with the RuneScape background lol

New to this pool and have a few questions:

I'm mining on the multiport and it's switching between DOGE and DMD and sometimes LKY even thought DOGE is always shown as more profitable on the multipool website. Why?

Is there any lost time in the process of switching coins?

What is the proper way to automatically exchange mined coins for BTC? I currently have a cryptsy account and put my cryptsy's DOGE address into my multipool payment settings to have it send DOGE to the cryptsy address every 1000 coins mined. Then I have cryptsy set up to automatically exchange DOGE for BTC. Is this what everyone else is doing or is there some other easier way that I'm not seeing? If this is correct, I have to do this for every coin? Would be a hassle.

Thanks

Hi, I received two ASUS 280x yesterday to mine litecoins with. Unfortunately, one of them looks to be defective (or I wrecked it?) because when I plug it into any PCI-E slot, windows does not boot and just shows a black screen. I was mining with it very briefly yesterday to test it out and mined for about 15 minutes total, never exceeding 90 celsius on either card and now it doesn't work anymore. I've tried a lot of stuff to try and fix it and will probably try more stuff but the card that does work seems to be getting a wide range of kh/s when mining with cgminer - from 400-700 kh/s.

I think the reason for this could be due to the core voltage of the card. I am using MSI Afterburner to overclock and the default core voltage is 1019mV. I've read other posts of people with 280x where their core voltage is upwards of 1200mV and if I change mine to even 1050, it seems to be fairly stable at 680kh/s.

So, is 1019mV too low of a voltage for a 280x or is this normal? What are other people's core voltages for the 280x?
If 1019mV is too low, can it wreck the card by using it with too low of voltage and may be the cause for my other card not working?

Hi, I have a desktop computer with one video card in it that I am using for mining at the moment. I have it mining at a high intensity to try and use its full potential. The problem is that the computer is quite laggy while mining because (I assume) it's trying to use the GPU (which is constantly at 100% usage) to render everything. There is an Intel i7 3770K processor in the computer that has onboard graphics and would be able to handle everything else that I want to do on the computer. I want to restrict the video card to only be used for mining while the processor is used for everything else.

I have read other threads about going into the BIOS and setting it to use the processor's onboard graphics by default. I tried this but then my video card wasn't recognized by cgminer and MSI Afterburner. Then I read I have to use a dummy plug so that the video card is forced to be used. Well, I hooked my graphics card up to a monitor instead of a dummy plug and restarted the computer several times but the video card is still never recognized.

Hello. Pretty new to mining myself and looking to get more into it. I can't seem to get dummy plugs to work with a video card that I'm using at the moment so I thought I would ask on these forums as they seem the most popular... Still a newbie so can only post here, maybe someone here knows the solution to my problem?

I have a Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H motherboard with an Intel i7 3770K processor attached as well as one video card, a Radeon HD 5850. I want to use the onboard graphics of the processor for everything that the computer does except mining. I want mining to be the only thing to use the video card. This is so I can use the video card's full potential for mining and still be able to use the computer without any lag. I went into my BIOS settings and changed it so that it uses the processor's graphics as default but now cgminer and MSI afterburner does not recognize my video card at all. So, this is where I thought people use dummy plugs to trick the computer to recognize the video card while still using the processor for graphics. I hooked my video card up to a monitor which is the same thing a dummy plug simulates but my computer still does not recognize the video card...
