Helli everyone. I just started mining bitcoins yesterday and still need alot to learn and get used to. By the way, my graphic card is RADEON HD5450, Processor Inter Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.83GHz. What Mhash/s rate should I be generating bitcoin at? And are there any tweaks that I can use to increase my Mhash/s?

Thanks in advance.

^^the link above will show you the hash rates.

11.9 mhash/s if you tweak, up to 40 mhash/s

A 5450 will generate roughly 10 mhash/s stock, if I remember correctly. In general it will not be much better than a CPU, 5x faster at most. More with extra flags
It's a dedicated HTPC card made mainly for decoding high definition movies so it's not very powerful.

edit - yes, ~11 as the chart shows

With guiminer, the 5xxx series cards should support -v -w28
With phoenix, you'd use BFI_INT

I would like to tweak my system to get more Mhash/s. Is there any tutorial on how to tweak? Or overclock.

I setup a tutorial for MSI, just need to figure our your own clock rates and mem core.

up to 40 mhash/s
That would be for a 5550
There's only one 5450 on there, and its at 11.99 so one could assume further tweaking might break into the 12's

Yeah, it wouldn't be worth it for me. A small investment of $109 can get you a Sapphire HD 5830 which brings in 280 mhash/s.
