Mining on Slushs Pool

[Syrus]

Morning/Afternoon

I've recently started mining (just over 0.04btc after 3 weeks) and I've just gotten a new ATi/AMD card (a Sapphire HD7850 1GB) and I was wondering if anyone could advice me on what difficulty I should set it up as on Slushs pool? Are there any other tweaks I should be looking at implementing? I'm currently using GUIMiner if that helps.

Thanks in advance

Suggested difficulty is 1 for anything under 2ghash/s.

Good luck

You might also want to read up on flags, you probably did something like -w256 -f60 but there are quite a few more, and it's usually great to know what they actually mean! Since they can tweak how you want to mine. Info on it here.

Edit: for a quick overview of all of them, check here

Thanks I'll have a play with the settings. I'm getting 256Mh/s at the moment which is a hell of a lot more than I was getting before

Nice card! Couldn't stretch to that on my budget, it's mainly for games tbh... the mining is a fringe benefit

Will send a couple of Satoshi your way now

Hope you don't think I was being sarcastic - I only had coinreaper rewards so far (yet to get a payment from Slush).

Check my join date to see how newb I am.

My account was .000xxxxx, and now is .00xxxxxx

Thanks again.
