1  Other / Beginners & Help / 2 x 5870's on: November 10, 2012, 06:45:46 AM
Hi all,

Just wondering what kind of power supply would be recommended to run x 2 of the above cards.  Do you think I'll get away with a 450watt? or should i be looking at atleast a 600watt?

Or just try out cgminer, it finds all your cards and use them at once.

If you need help running it let me know Wink

Hi mate,

Just wondering how i would enter any switches into the console for example; -f 0 -v -w 128

Cheers,

Steve.

Hi All,

I want to add a second GPU so I can mine with both cards.

1 x 5870 and 1 x 6950.

Do I just run GUIMINER 2 times and select the different card on the application?

Cheers,

Steve.

Sorry for double post, I just encrypted my wallet by clicking 'Settings' and then 'encrypt wallet' and now I don't know how to un-encrypt it.. fantastic.. :S I know the passphrase though.. lol
Your wallet is decrypted only when it is necessary for the program to access the keys to your addresses, ie, whenever you spend your bitcoins or create a new receiving address. You (and anyone who gains access to your wallet) will be required to enter your passphrase to perform these actions. The client does not provide any built-in way to remove encryption from a wallet, as this is never necessary and extremely unwise in any case.

Thanks for your clarification foxpup.

You would have to enable both slots in the BIOS for example the on-board Graphics and the Graphics car Slot.  Usually they both come enabled unless you have purchased a branded machine IE: DELL, IBM.. so on..

If your smart enough to be doing mining, you'd be smart enough to stay away from that rubbish and build your own rig Wink

Also, I tried to do this exactly 1yr ago, i had sent 1 coin to an address which was in my wallet, I've since formatted my machine, those coins are gone correct?
Unless you backed up that wallet, or somehow stored the private keys associated with the address.  Otherwise, yes, they are gone forever.

Damn.. it sucks that.. because I know the address because its on my pool account.. DAMN! and on block chain its the exact amount Sad ahh well.. its only 1 coin.. luckily it wasn't more!

ok so...

I create an address with my bitcoin wallet and then i send my coins from MT RED(mining pool) to that address.  The coins are then stored in my wallet correct?  I can then send the coins from my wallet to the address on MTGOX and then trade with my coins on MTGOX? correct?

OR am i still missing something??

Hi all,

Just wondering if I can get a bit of Help please - I feel as if I'm missing something here.

I've downloaded Bitcoin - Wallet (currently syncing with the network, its done about 90%).

I've signed up to a pool (Mt.Red) and have created a worker.

I've got GUIMiner and have installed all the correct drivers - Hashing at about 310mh/s.

I Can withdraw my coins to an Address using Mt.Red, but I'm not quite sure where the wallet comes into play?  I've seen people talk about backing up the wallet?

After i withdraw my coins to at address using Mt.Red, what do I do next?

And after that, how do I get my coins onto something link Mt.Gox as so then I can cash these coins out for $$

Cheers,

Steve.
