Hey Guys, Is there a program that lets you mine in BTCMine with your CPU and you get decent Mhash/s and you dont have to stop GPU mining? It seems weird that a CPU is more powerful than a GPU yet my 5870 can get 400Mhash/s were my i7 930 @ 4.2Ghz only gets 5Mhash/s  Thanks Mik |

They are only made to handle a certain amount of things, but the things that they can handle, they are VERY good at. One of those is hashing. |

In the same boat, have an Intel sandy bridge, but my GPU is an old Nvidia 9800. Looks like I'll be upgrading soon.

Personally I wouldn't bother. Unless you like PC gaming, getting a GFX card for mining alone is a: a waste of electricity and b: a waste of money as you'll be unlikely to make back the purchase price of the GFX card. (This is all assuming that ASIC's hit sometime in Q1-2 2013) |
