same hash rate? btc/ltc

[Killer19]

Say my gpu got 110mh/z mining btc, would it mine at 110mh/z on ltc?

if not, please explain

[Blazr]

Nope, much much lower.

Bitcoin uses SHA-256 as its hashing algorithm, while Litecoin uses Scrypt.

The short answer is Scrypt is slower. One Scrypt hash needs much more processing power to compute than one SHA-256 hash.

The total Litecoin network hash rate at the moment is estimated at: 713Mhash, thats all the Litecoin miners together, just to put things into perspective.

Got a calculator to convert?

There is no way of converting. some GPU's will be faster than others because Scypt is so different to SHA256 (for example LTC mining uses your GPU's RAM while BTC mining doesn't really use your GPU's RAM at all).

You need to look-up your hardware here:

1MH/s SHA-256 Hashrate = 1MH/s Scrypt Hashrate???
I'm dump about this...PLEASE HELP!!!

[BitBlitz]

Scrypt runs about 1,000X slower than SHA256 on GPUs.
Based on that, I'd expect your GPUs to mine LTC at 110KH/S.

if i buy TerraMiner IV – 2TH/s, Networked ASIC Miner...is good choice mining srypt coins???i dont have idea,  2TH/s is = ???TH/s Scrypt???

No You cant use bitcoin asics for scrypt. Please use search option as there are multiple post considering this Thing.

on my two 7970s I get ~1300 on litecoin and 1100 on bitcoin...

actually that might be backwards I haven't looked in a while

You can Srypt mine altcoins with GPU only

Untrue... You can cpu mine too but i know u meaned cause he told hashrate and propably uses gpu ..

Scrypt is harder to mine than SHA256 according to what i've read, so LTC hashrate would be slower than BTC.
