Hello,
bitcointalk forums

I just wanted to know, since my ATI garphics card isn't supported in OpenCL(Under HD 4000 I think)
can I still use the GPU without opencl
I am using the miner for scrypt currencies,
my GPU is a ATI radeon x300 (old sh!t)
Since I can only crack open 2k/hashs on scrypt, I am hoping that I can run on my GPU to see any difference?
If anyone knows how to run any miner on GPU without OpenCL would be help full!

Thanks, and please give feedback!

Sorry you will not be able to mine on that card.  You will need a 5000 series and up.

Here is good list of hardware:

If you want to be a serious miner, you need an ASIC.
