Noob miner here, dipping my toes into the pool with my laptop's GT650M
Just wondering why cudaminer reports a consistent 63 kH/s but stratehm.net shows on average around 37?
Earned a mighty 0.0008 BTC on my first day!
Laptop?
Dude, how is your laptop going to deal with all the heat? You will kill it. Mining a few $ is not worth killing a laptop.
Heat is one of the reasons why people use open rigs.
Sorry to put a downer on your first day of BTC earnings. Just looking out for you.
been mining PTS on both the GPU (GTX460m) and CPU (i7-2320qm, 8 threads) in my Alienware M17x-R3 laptop. been running non-stop for months now. no issues.
Just realised the gpu is running at 89°C, not good long term I guess. Trying to decide if it's worth getting a couple of 7970s to put in an old desktop.
@gsrcrxsi: what sort of profit are you getting from that setup? Didn't think a laptop could handle cpu+gpu going flat out 24/7!
