I remember with Bitcoin you could set the intensity of the miner, I really liked that feature. Currently I'm using QTMiner and EthMiner to mine. I can't find an intensity flag anywhere, or any miner that supports it. I'd like to be able to use my computer while I mine. Is this possible? And if so, how do I do it?

Claymore's miner support intensity. Get it frome here. After you download it in your start.bat file after all your pool configuration specify which intensity you want to use (look at claymore's documentation). What would be right for you is -li tag. It reduce your mining speed but card's will be stressed less

It is also possible to activate the onboard videocard so you can use your computer without using resources of your GPU

-ethi   Ethereum intensity. Default value is 8, you can decrease this value if you don't want Windows to freeze or if you have problems with stability. The most low GPU load is "-ethi 0".
   Also "-ethi" now can set intensity for every card individually, for example "-ethi 1,8,6".
   You can also specify negative values, for example, "-ethi -8192", it exactly means "global work size" parameter which is used in official miner.

whats your gpu? chances are zcash (ZEC) mining might be the most profitable

24" PCI-E cables with 16AWG wires and stripped ends - great for server PSU mods, best prices https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=563461
No longer a wannabe - now an ASIC owner!
